Poem: Do Good Only For Allah, And You Won't Feel Undervalued.

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

💌 Three things to remember when you feel underrated, 

Misunderstood, or by loved ones you're not supported, 

So when you do good deeds or make uncommon choices 

That breed critics or cause some to go "I don't get it.", 

You go on, as it's for Allah, and refuse to quit:

~•~

One: Live to please Allah, not those whom He created. 

When performing noble works, hope to be rewarded 

By just Allah Who appreciates sincere motives. 

So when you wear hijab, learn Islam, pray Tahajjud, 

Await Allah's rewards. Don't expect His slaves' applause.

~•~

Two: Understand there are reasons why some won't support, 

Whether they envy you or can't relate to your goals, 

Or they've got their own race to win and problems to solve. 

Strive for Allah. Around you the world doesn't revolve. 

Real success in both worlds only Allah can bestow.

~•~

Three: Flies and worms gravitate to trash much more than gold. 

Owls would rather soar at night than smell a pleasant rose. 

"Not all share the same role and purpose," that you should know. 

Don't be surprised if even some relatives say no 

To your mission and dreams. Depend on Allah alone. 

~•~

How many customers you have, by whom you're followed, 

And how often you're acclaimed can't measure your true worth. 

Nuh ('alaihis salaam) didn't have many fans yet Allah loves him so, 

While shaytan has tons of followers around the globe 

Despite having deceptive aims and being accursed.

~•~

📖 Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated that some people from the Ansaar asked Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam, and he gave them. Then they asked for charity again and he gave them. Then they asked again and he gave them until all he had was gone. The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "If I had anything, I would not withhold it. Whoever refrains from asking others, then Allah will make him content. Whoever would be independent, then Allah will make him independent. Whoever would be patient, then Allah will make him patient. There is no gift that is better and more comprehensive than patience."

Poem: On Not Following One's Heart When Feelings Lead To Wrongs

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful 

💌 For Allah's sake, with Adhkaar and Taqwa shield your heart, 

That piece of flesh in your body where shaytan imparts 

His vile suggestions whereby logic often departs. 

Know how to control your feelings before fitna starts, 

And to defeat shaytan's plots, understand how he works.

~•~

When crushing on non-mahrams, don't let lust run its course. 

Lustful thoughts can lead to zina, which begets remorse. 

Tame your nafs. Don't stare at crushes to keep feels controlled. 

Shun needless socializing, your faith/Imaan uphold, 

And fast more Sunnah fasts to enhance your self-control.

~•~

When angry, seek refuge in Allah from the accursed 

shaytan who loves it when you're provoked so stress gets worse. 

Anger, if left uncontrolled, can bring about the urge 

To commit murder, injustice, or spread foul rumors. 

Do wudhu when mad, take naps, pray, or drink water cold.

~•~

When saddened by bad news or each time trials unfold, 

Recall Allah controls, joy doesn't last in this world, 

And we're pushed to say Du'a when sorrow is absorbed.

Strong connection with Allah can have dilemmas solved.

So don't appease shaytan when he pleads, "Please, kill yourself."

~•~

Weird emotions felt don't need to be put into words, 

Just as not every feeling must be acted upon. 

What sort of feelings should we strive to hide or withhold: 

Ones that distract us from our goals, or which promote wrongs, 

And not acting on them protects the soul in both worlds.

~•~

Note: Permissibility To Fast On Friday (When It Is Not Ramadan) As Long As One Fasts The Day Before Or After It

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

🗒️ Allah the Almighty knows best. It is allowed to fast on a Friday, to complete one's obligatory fasts in Ramadan or continue the Sunnah fasting of six days of Shawwaal, as long as one fasts the day before (Thursday) and/or after it (Saturday). 

📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Do not single out the night of Friday for voluntary prayer (Tahajjud) to the exclusion of other nights. Do not single out the day of Friday for fasting to the exclusion of other days, unless it is the routine of one of you."

In another narration, the Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Let not one of you fast on Friday unless he also fasts a day before or after it."
