🗒️ The kind of souls I'd befriend, if you were to ask me,
Don't need to be wealthy so they'd spoil you with freebies,
Aren't obliged to give you free meals regularly
Like they want you to gain weight or desire worldly greed,
And it's not a crime if they're not described as "funny".
~•~
The type of souls I would gravitate to, honestly,
Glow brightly with strong faith, trust Allah the Almighty,
Cleverly know that this dunya is temporary,
Enjoy learning about Islam, and their self-esteem
Inspires you to improve and augments your bravery.
~•~
They're the kind of friends who won't hesitate to tell me
That I did something wrong and they'd correct me kindly,
They'd encourage me to read and learn regularly,
And if in marriage I'd go through some difficulties,
They'd advise me to stay patient and love steadfastly.
~•~
They'd be from the few who don't despise polygyny,
They'd be from the minority who confidently
Do not rely on cosmetics and they're not guilty
Of comparing their lives to others' tests constantly.
They'd be from the rare ones who are truly trustworthy.
~•~
They wouldn't see it as a crisis to be called "weird"
Every time they'd do good deeds for Allah sincerely,
From maintaining the prayers and dressing modestly
To Da'wah and listening to lectures frequently.
We'd equally seek Jannah and please Allah Only.

The seller of musk will give you some perfume, you will buy some, or you will notice a good smell (pleasant scent). As for the blacksmith, he will burn your clothes or you will notice a bad smell."
