💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 'Umar ibn Al-Khattab, Khalid bin Al-Waleed,
Abu Sufyan bin Harb, Hind bint 'Utbah, and Wahshi
Were from those who openly fought and showed enmity
To Prophet Muhammad (SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam) and the Muslims previously
Until Allah guided them, saved them from disbelief.

Abu Talib who took care of Muhammad (SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam) for years,
The son of Nuh ('alaihis salaam), Aazar the father of Ibraheem ('alaihis salaam),
Wife of Lut ('alaihis salaam), Ibn Salul known for hypocrisy,
And fir'awn, spouse of Aasiyah ('alaihas salaam), guilty of tyranny
Stayed astray - Far from Allah's Guidance, Light and Mercy.

No matter how eager you advise some families,
Begging Allah to guide your loved ones persistently,
Mentioning their names in Du'as dedicatedly,
They won't be guided, of your advice they can't take heed,
If their sticking to falsehood is by Allah decreed.
~•~
Don't worry. When you do Da'wah for Allah bravely,
And your invites to the truth are declined frequently,
Be grateful for Allah's Guidance and that you at least
Did your best to remind, correct wrongs, enjoin good deeds,
And called your relatives to Allah responsibly.

Only Allah the Almighty can decide wisely
Who among His creation deserve Jannah's entry.
Enjoining right and forbidding wrong is your duty.
Granting enlightenment is done by Allah Only
Who controls all people's hearts and Qadr/Destiny.

📖 Sahl Ibn Sa’d RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "By Allah, that Allah guides a man through you is better for you than a herd of expensive red camels."
