Poem: Seven Reasons Why Divorce Is More Difficult Than Some People Think

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Seven reasons why divorce is tougher than you think, 
Why separation for some former lovers weakens 
Their faith/Imaan and may cause their future to worsen, 
Specially if the divorcees share cherished moments, 
Cute children, and some of their relatives remain friends: 
~•~
One: Divorcing requires signing lots of documents, 
Having interviews or conducting tiring meetings, 
Applying for new IDs, editing one's current 
Marital status on vast social media platforms, 
And such tasks can take time if one spouse isn't present.
~•~
Two: Divorce doesn't always have an easy ending. 
Often there may be more fights, drama, and arguments, 
Including issues pertaining to given items, 
Wanting all of one's furniture, things and gifts returned, 
And who takes permanent custody of the children.
~•~ 
Three: Women who take care of the kids of ex-husbands 
May not completely move on if they are still sharing 
Time spent with the kids and their dad's visits are frequent, 
And even after divorce, he still needs to finance 
And support his children to ensure he's not sinning. 
~•~ 
Four: A woman whose ex chose to leave her may become 
Less friendly with married women, or less confident, 
And reducing interactions with her married friends, 
So their stories don't remind her of her ex-husband, 
Could be her way of coping with her separation. 
~•~
Five: A woman who felt close to her former husband 
May decide to grant new proposals swift rejection, 
While waiting for her first lover with steadfast patience, 
And praying that her ex proposes to her again. 
Divorcing a loyal wife doesn't solve one's problems.
~•~ 
Six: A divorcee attending social gatherings, 
Shopping, or while walking outdoors, if Allah destines, 
May come across her ex or strangers who look like him, 
Or from concerned acquaintances she receives questions 
On her divorce, which can be stressful and distressing.
~•~ 
Seven: Breaking up with someone whom you loved loving 
And in your heart there remains deep affection for him, 
Can feel devastating, disturbed you let shaytan win, 
Defeated by shaytan who rejoiced in your splitting, 
And you regret letting go of rewarding patience. 
~•~ 
It's better to stay as your husband's wife who's patient, 
Understanding of his flaws, distance, tough employment, 
Weaknesses, regular absence, or limitations, 
While Allah the Most Loving loves your persevering,
And you patiently pray for your husband's improvement.
~•~
📖 Jabir RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Verily, shaytan places his throne over the water and he sends out his troops. The closest to him in rank are the greatest at causing tribulations (mischief, trouble). One of them says: 'I have done this and this.' shaytan says: 'you have done nothing.' Another one says: 'I did not leave this man alone until I separated him from his wife.' shaytan embraces him and he says: 'you have done well!'"

Poem: Some Tips For Coping With "Falling In Love" Easily

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 If there comes a time when you decide to put a stop 
To catching feelings or easily falling in love, 
Because it hurts to want a crush who won't chase you back 
And zina is one of shaytan's most destructive traps, 
Migrate to a distant place far from human contact.
~•~ 
Controlling your gaze is one way to protect your heart. 
The more you avoid staring at souls who can attract, 
While disciplining your nafs through fasting Sunnah fasts, 
The easier it gets to tell your desires "Shut up. 
Lust isn't real love if from Allah's Path it distracts." 
~•~
It's a test if you "fall in love" with souls you can't have. 
Imagine a spacious land where many holes are dug, 
In each hole are creatures that can grab or keep you stuck, 
And if you lack Taqwa, you're blindfolded as you walk, 
And the minute you stumble, it's hard to climb back up.
~•~ 
Shield your heart with the fortress of Dhikr and Du'as, 
Frequent reading from the Noble Qur'an, Istighfaar, 
Frequently praying Tahajjud when the skies are dark, 
And stay away from fitna, as smart soldiers at war 
Would retreat or turn around when they spot a clear trap.
~•~ 
Also recall the reality of death a lot, 
And visualize the outcomes of every sinful act. 
Zina is like trash that's kept in a pretty gift box. 
Your faith/Imaan remain safe if you leave it untouched, 
And prefer everlasting bliss in Jannah above.

Poem: What Can A Muslim Do In Times Of Rising Fitna?

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

💌 Do you miss the times when there was no covid-nineteen, 
Whether it's a pandemic or weird conspiracy, 
A plot to ensure that the populace would decrease, 
To restrict most from steady jobs or freedom of speech, 
Or it's a true disease which spreads with Allah's Decree? 
~•~ 
Do you miss going out to visit your family 
And friends, even when there wasn't any special need? 
When you could attend Islamic gatherings freely, 
Go shopping without constantly showing your ID, 
And hug your loved ones without guilt or hesitancy?
~•~ 
Do you long for those days to come back eventually, 
When parents don't have to stress out with their kids' studies, 
When students can take their assignments more seriously, 
When most examinees won't be urged to lie and cheat, 
And teachers can resume disciplining properly? 
~•~
Are you tired of worrying if certain news are real, 
If you should side with the majority that agrees 
To get the vaccine eagerly and without worry, 
Or if you must listen to those with a theory 
That this crisis is some kind of trick or case study? 
~•~ 
Despite challenges and trials you see frequently, 
Always trust Allah and fear just Him the Almighty.
Know that earth and tests in this world are temporary. 
To succeed in both worlds, win Allah's Love and Mercy, 
Prepare to meet Allah, increase Du'a and good deeds.
~•~
