π Do good deeds just for Allah, and you won't regret it.
Work hard to reach Jannah, and efforts are not wasted.
To those who often feel "underappreciated",
"Undervalued" or "underrated", take note of this:
We're here to serve Allah, not slaves whom He created.
~•~
If sometimes in your workplace you try your very best
To do a job well done only to get unnoticed
By your employers who when you thrive remain quiet
And when errors are made, they turn into loud critics,
Stay patient for Allah Who sees all good deeds you did.
~•~
Know that oftentimes people who fail to encourage
Others to do whatever they can to gain success
Would refuse to support you as they're sadly jealous.
Don't be affected by the acts of the envious.
Let their envy inspire you to be tougher instead.
~•~
Acknowledge the truth that not all of Allah's Prophets ('alaihim as-salaam)
Were loved and supported by all of their relatives.
Even from your own clan you may encounter hatred
And attempts to ensure your goals are not accomplished.
Continue doing good for Allah without regret.
~•~
'Tis better to earn Allah's Love along with some stress
Than aimlessly rest while sins are being recorded,
And more noble than being frequently applauded
By "fans" is hoping your patience will be rewarded.
Live to please Allah, so your striving isn't wasted.

π Ibn Abbas RadhiAllahu 'anhuma narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Verily, Allah has recorded good and evil deeds and He made them clear. Whoever intends to perform a good deed but does not do it, Allah will record it as a complete good deed. If he intends to do it and does so, Allah the Almighty will record it as ten good deeds, up to seven hundred times as much or even more. If he intends to do an evil deed and does not do it, Allah will record for him one complete good deed. If he does it, Allah will record for him as one evil deed."

π Sa'd Ibn Abi Waqqas RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: I said, “O Messenger of Allah, which of the people are most severely tested?” The Messenger of Allah SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "They are the prophets, then the next best (in terms of piety), then the next best. A man is put to trial according to his Deen/religion. If he is firm in his religion, his trials will be more severe. If he is weak in his religion, he is put to trial according to his strength in religion. The servant will continue to be put to trial until he is left walking upon the earth without any sin."
