๐ Trust me when I say this, I'm not the type that's clingy.
I don't need the love of flawed humans to feel complete,
Don't expect them to respect me while they frequently
Deal with foul envy and loads of insecurities,
And I won't wait for them to greet me consistently.
~•~
Once I start believing that someone's untrustworthy,
Unworthy of my trust, affection and energy,
I gladly avoid them for Allah the Almighty,
As much as possible, to preserve my well-being.
Their posts no longer appear on my Facebook news feed.
~•~
I unfollow them online, and offline don't go near
Them as often as I can, not out of pride and fear
But because I believe that Allah's Love is more dear
To me than allowing toxic actors with severe
Attachment to dunya to disrupt my goals and dreams.
~•~
Yes they distract me at times when they chat aimlessly,
Discuss pointless matters, yap about "celebrities",
Gossip about those whom they're jealous of intensely,
And decline invites when I ask them to learn with me
More about Islam so our faith Imaan can increase.
~•~
The wrong pals are like leeches that watch you as you bleed.
You're better off without their lies, lousy tendency
To deceive you and mislead, and without their appeals
To receive your loyalty for their clear fakery.
Not "lonely". Blessed by Allah to leave tomfoolery.

๐ Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "The strong believer is more beloved to Allah than the weak believer, but there is goodness in both of them. Be eager for what benefits you, seek help from Allah, and do not be frustrated. If something befalls you, then do not say: 'If only I had done something else.' Rather say: "Allah has decreed what He wills." Verily, the phrase ‘if only’ opens the way for the work of shaytan."
