Hadith: The Prohibition Of Sculpting And Drawing Images Of Living Beings


📖 Abu Talhah RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "The angels do not enter a house in which there is a dog, nor an image in a likeness." Abu Talhah RadhiAllahu 'anhu said, “The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam means by likeness an image of living souls.”

Poem: Patience For Allah's Sake vs "Toxic Positivity"

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful 
💌 Please note that toxic positivity isn't in 
Staying patient with the man whom Allah has chosen 
As your trusted friend to Jannah, travel companion, 
And sweet soulmate whom you can spoil with your compassion. 
Allah loves those Muslims who for His sake have patience. 
~•~ 
Toxic positivity isn't in welcoming 
Challenges to have Sabr with your man's shortcomings, 
Decision to study or work in a different 
City so you can't enjoy his soothing vibes often, 
Or ability to care for more than one woman. 
It's not toxic if it's blessed, worthwhile, and rewarding. 
~•~
Choosing to smile and stay hopeful isn't toxic when 
Understanding your spouse shows your love is genuine, 
Missing him inspires you to increase supplications, 
Forgiving your soulmate causes your faith to strengthen, 
And patience which brings you near Allah isn't tiring. 
~•~ 
Toxic positivity is clear when you're: Acting 
Cheerful while indulging in sins such as gossiping, 
Laughing at people's flaws as one conceals depression, 
Earning sins while feeling certain to be forgiven, 
And behaving as if dunya is everlasting. 
~•~ 
Patience with something or somebody gets toxic when 
There's no improvement after long periods of waiting 
And optimism only invites newer problems. 
For Allah's sake, stand by your husband if you love him 
From day one. Don't let shaytan ruin any blessing.
~•~ 
📖 Abdullah Ibn Amr RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "The world is enjoyment and the best enjoyment in the world is a righteous wife."

📖 Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Some people from the Ansaar asked the Messenger of Allah SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam and he gave them. Then they asked for charity again and he SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam gave them. Then they asked again and he SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam 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."
