Poem: Not Lonely. Just Inspired By Allah To Leave Those Who Failed To Prove They Are Trustworthy.

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful 
📜 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.

📖 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."

Tips: There Are Reasons Why Allah The Most Wise Doesn't Want Us To Befriend Certain People

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
🗒️ Five reasons why Allah the Most Wise caused you to quit befriending certain souls whom He knows are actually bad for you, and detachment from them is really a blessing: 
1] Allah the Almighty saw how you were wasting so much time and energy whenever you were anywhere near them. For instance, you regularly spent two or more hours literally almost everyday chatting with them about futile issues and this fleeting dunya while you could be smartly utilizing those vacant periods to effectively strengthen your faith/Imaan by reading a lot about Islam and attentively listening to beneficial Islamic lectures. 
2] Allah the Almighty observed that in the hearts of those toxic individuals disguising themselves as "friends" linger undeniable envy, negative intentions and resentment. During the whole time they were pretending to vibe with you, they were just acting, intending to appear friendly only for their selfish gains. 
3] Allah the All-Knowing has seen how your companionship and closeness with them would have been so detrimental for your faith/Imaan and emotional well-being. 
4] Your willingness to open up to them at a point when you felt more at ease, revealing facts about yourself which are better kept confidential, was clearly known to Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala and He the Most Merciful prevented that from occuring for your own protection. 
5] Allah the Most Loving didn't want you to emotionally suffer whenever you had to tolerate listening to those narcissists' pointless chatter, absurd lies, frequent bragging, sinful gossip and abhorrent ridiculing of others. It's an evident sign that Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala wants you to succeed in both worlds when He distances you from every insecure and inwardly miserable individual who lacks genuine interest in self-development as a Muslim and their unpleasant presence acts as an obstacle to your goals. 
Imagine a true friend called "A" and a group of colleagues with many characteristics or interests in common. This clique is connected to other groups that are conspiring against you as though they are nosy spies who envy your lifestyle, marriage life or achievements. "A" would do whatever they can to stop you from becoming "close friends" with those people to shield you from their awful agenda. One must be grateful Alhamdulillah to be far away from anything which could ultimately lead to fitna.

The Muslim is one from whose tongue and hand the Muslims are safe (not guilty of backbiting, knowingly telling lies, and knowingly committing injustice). The emigrant (muhaajir) is one who emigrates away from evil. 
By the One (Allah the Almighty) in Whose Hand is my soul, a servant will not enter Paradise if his neighbor is not secure from his harm."
