Poem: The Type Of Woman I'd Like To Be If Possible

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful 
📝 To join the good souls whom Allah the Most Powerful
Loves and always guides to Him is one of my life goals. 
The qualities which I believe are admirable
In a Muslimah are those which make her capable
Of striving towards Jannah with faith unshakable.
~•~
I'm still a work in progress; I'm not infallible, 
Yet I'm trying my best to do what is feasible. 
The kind of woman whom I regard as notable
And worthy of emulation is one who's able
To sacrifice her pride for deeds more profitable.
~•~
She trusts Allah, she's not overly emotional, 
And by fluctuating feelings she is not controlled. 
She doesn't act on envy, she's not unreasonable, 
And by this world's brief enjoyment she is not enthralled.
She lives to serve Allah, not to please people at all.
~•~
The type of woman I'd like to be, if possible, 
Is one who never feels tired or fatigued when stressful
Situations arise so she can do more worthwhile
Actions which lead to Jannah but that's impossible - 
I feel exhausted at times; I'm not invincible -
~•~
But I won't quit serving Allah the Most Merciful
Who sees my eagerness to do what is essential
For my soul to succeed in both worlds. With Allah's Will, 
I'll do whatever I can to achieve my life goals, 
And ignore shaytan's pleas to give up sincere efforts.

📖 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."
