Poem: Divorce Is Permissible But It's Despicable To Me

πŸ’ In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful 
πŸ’Œ While divorce for some females symbolizes "freedom" 
And "the best choice" to "escape" from a "loveless romance", 
I view it as a testament and confirmation
That an ex-wife's love wasn't real from the beginning. 
If it were true, she'd find solutions to stay with him.
~•~
While most regard divorce as the "correct decision" 
If the spouses can't deal with disputes, discontentment, 
And frequent absence, I see it as an evidence 
That they weren't determined enough to keep fighting
For their marriage and overall they lacked inner strength.
~•~
While divorce shows "courage" according to some women, 
To me it indicates cowardice and impatience, 
Selfishness in having too many expectations, 
Insincerity when defeated by distractions, 
And banality when unable to solve problems.
~•~
With the fact that divorce is lawful I've no problem. 
It's illogical though for a man and his woman 
To agree on breaking the beautiful connection,
Which Allah the Most Wise destined, for trivial reasons. 
Why disconnect a link when it's clearly a blessing?
~•~
Why follow the crowd that decides based on emotions? 
Why treat marriage like half-finished meals thrown by children
Who don't know the importance of proper consumption? 
If your spouse can get toxic, don't quickly discard them. 
Train them to improve and wait for their development.
~•~
Your husband ain't food that you can throw in the dustbin
When loving him can't be done to your satisfaction. 
He's a human, just like you, with flaws and shortcomings. 
Pass Allah's tests in marriage with lots of trust in Him 
And with the sort of patience that won't think of quitting. 
~•~
While divorce is viewed by some as the "right solution" 
To incompatibility and disappointments, 
I perceive it as a cowardly move or action 
Confirming that one's love wasn't really genuine. 
Links which lead to Allah shouldn't be quickly broken.

So you should marry the religious (righteous Muslimah) woman (otherwise) you will be a loser."

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!'"
