π In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
π Five differences between people whom you were destined by Allah the Most Wise to connect with and those who were chosen to remain as casual acquaintances or complete strangers:
π Signs of compatible souls who were destined to be in your circle:
π 1] Whether you're neighbors or they reside in another city, the very first time you met personally or discovered their account on social media, you felt eager and interested in getting to know more about them.
2] While it's clear that you have a lot of things and qualities in common, you're unable to feel jealous of their joys and achievements because overall you share the same life mission.
3] Even if you haven't seen each other in such a long time, when you do reunite, for instance in a social gathering or virtual meeting, your conversations flow smoothly and there are no awkward moments.
4] You perceive them as wholesome, pleasant and inspiring. If they manage some Islamic blogs, podcast series, online forums, or a YouTube channel, you put effort into checking their contents and learning from them often.
5] You actually miss their presence whenever you haven't heard from them within a significant number of days. If you notice that they didn't update their social media account in a long time or they took a break from chatting with you for a while, you wonder if there's something wrong or at least hope they're still okay.
⚠️ Signs that a person was not destined to be your friend, so you mustn't worry about them leaving or acting distant:
π» 1] Regardless of where they stay on earth, you're adamantly uninterested in visiting them and building any form of connection. Stumbling upon their names a lot on social media can't inspire you to check out their profiles and postings. In your opinion, whatever they have to say lacks significance.
2] Since their vibes generally make you feel uncomfortable, slightly envious for some reason or insecure, you feel much more at ease when they're absent.
3] It is usually difficult to think of interesting topics to discuss with them. You'd rather find peace in reciting from the Noble Qur'an, reading a book, or watching a documentary for one hour than begrudgingly chat with them for even fifteen minutes.
4] You easily cringe at most of their actions or get upset and annoyed by the mistakes they do.
5] A whole year of not visiting their Facebook timeline or not seeing them face to face would pass by and still you're incapable of missing them. If their presence fails to motivate you to become a better Muslim, their absence has absolutely no influence on your well-being.
