📖 Sahl ibn Sa'd RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Verily, there is a gate in Paradise called Ar-Rayyaan, through which only those who fasted will enter on the Day of Resurrection. No one else will enter it along with them. It will be said: 'Where are those who fasted, so that they may enter?' When the last of them enter, it will be closed and no one else will go through it."

Note: Allah The Almighty Is Always With Our Muslim Loved Ones Whom We Miss
💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful 
📜 Some tips on how to deal with feeling somewhat upset or disappointed you couldn't say proper goodbye to a loved one, friend or colleague before their travel:
1✅ Remember all the good times and memorable moments you've enjoyed with them. Alhamdulillah at least you did your best in spending quality time with them whenever you could.
2✅ Recall that negative feelings of sadness and worry are only temporary.
Inn-sha-Allah it may be an expiation or means of purification for a Muslim whenever he/she feels sorrowful at times. Feeling worried or sad should inspire us to move closer to Allah the Most Merciful and encourage us to increase in saying more Du'as and Adhkaar (especially reading from the Noble Qur'an whenever possible).
3✅ Firmly believe that
Inn-sha-Allah in Jannah Paradise we can reunite and meet up with them again. It's normal for many families and friends on earth to reside far from each other or relocate.
Inn-sha-Allah in Jannatul Ferdaus the believers there won't be examined with stress, separation or grief etc.
Be inspired also by how independent (while always trusting Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala) and resilient the noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam was when he regularly climbed jabal an-noor (mountain of light) to worship Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala in cave Hiraa, and when he SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam traveled by walking to Taif with one of his companions Zaid ibn Haritha RadhiAllahu 'anhum - at that time away physically from their families and loved ones.
📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah’s noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "The strong believer is more beloved to Allah (The Almighty) 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."

Poem: Even If We're Far From Some Loved Ones, Allah The Almighty Is Always Near

📜 To one of my brothers who, with Allah's Will, shall soon
Travel to study so more of his skills can improve,
And to those brothers in Islam who can relate too
Regarding learning as adults in a place that's new
And far away from their loved ones - some advice for you:
~•~
Recall our main purpose; the reason we're here is to
Worship no one except Allah the Almighty Who
Always took care of us while we were in our mom's womb.
Allah never left us even if people eschewed
Our presence at times. Allah sees us all through and through.
~•~
Your family and loved ones, and souls who were meant to
Connect with you, with Allah's Will, are like me and you
In terms of being temporary - we're not here to
Live on earth forever nor to each other stay glued.
This world's full of tests. As Muslims we accept the truth.
~•~
Even leaves get dry after some time, flowers fade too,
And a number of Allah's servants gradually lose
Touch with those they used to love while others need to choose
Between tough options. More tests from Allah shows that you
Are special to Allah Who wants your faith to improve.
~•~
Trust Allah. You're not alone. There are many men who
Cope well, with Allah's Will, while in other countries to
Work or take courses despite not being able to
Be near their loved ones. It's okay. Allah is with you.
Jannah's where you can reunite with those who miss you.
~•~
Stay busy with good thoughts. Allah knows what's best for you.
Many from Allah's Prophets ('alaihim as-salaam), and from the pious, too
Had to live far away from loved ones in order to
Attain more blessings, and sometimes success could include
Sacrificing for Allah because your faith is true.
~•~

Poem: I'm Not Jealous Of Any Female. Stop Lying To Yourself.

📝 Please, stop lying to yourself through falsely assuming
That I'm "jealous" of your appearance or achievements.
Don't waste your time desperately scheming and plotting
Ways to make me "envy" your nonsense and lame acting.
shaytan was prone to jealousy - I don't applaud him.
~•~
You can wear gold jewelry, afford diamond rings,
Own items with emerald, rubies and other gems,
And take pride in your large income or job position,
And, with Allah's Will, I won't, not for any moment,
Wish I were you or wish I were another person.
~•~
I don't wish to be you, since I'm blessed with contentment,
And know that Allah the Most Wise already destined
And designed the gifts and life journeys of His servants.
Why would I envy donkeys partying in mansions
Or feel threatened by monkeys flaunting trash they've stolen?
~•~
So long as you don't believe that Allah is our King,
And as long as within you lingers discontentment,
While you spy on others' lives online very often,
I won't be feeling envious of your deceptions.
shaytan's a jealous type; I don't wish to copy him.
~•~

Poem: Never Advise Loyal Wives To Divorce. We'd Know You're Only Joking.
💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful %20(18).jpeg)
%20(18).jpeg)
💌 From the worst advice anyone can provide, in my
Opinion is "Your husband doesn't seem to spend time
With you a lot. Of his busyness aren't you tired?
Are you not fed up with how he's so preoccupied
With work? When will you decide to find another guy?"
~•~
Excuse me? Don't act as if you care about my life.
Don't dish out tips regarding love if you've never tried
Sacrificing your ego/pride to do what is right -
To stay as your husband's patient friend and loyal wife.
Don't advise if you don't know what loyalty is like.
~•~
Marriage won't separate you from trials, stress and strife.
It's not an end goal, but means to Jannah Paradise.
It's like a challenge accepted by the brave and wise
Who won't quit the journey when some paths are blocked by ice,
Aware that storms and winter eventually subside.
~•~
Anger is temporary, fights can be put aside,
And forgiving becomes easy when you discard pride,
When your drive to please Allah Above the seven skies
Is stronger than your need to tell your husband "See? I
Was right. I knew it. You should've taken my advice."
~•~
Don't claim "You're not old yet. You can find a better guy."
Unless you're fully certain that such male never cries,
That he can't feel emotions and he never gets tired,
And he knows the best shortcut to Jannah Paradise.
Don't even bribe me to stop being my man's first wife.
~•~
📖 Thawban RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated that Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said: "Any woman who asks her husband for a divorce when it is not absolutely necessary, the fragrance of Paradise will be forbidden to her."

The closest to him in rank are the greatest at causing tribulations. 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!'"
