Poem: Let Allah's Love And Guidance Keep You Motivated

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

💌 Don't expect a person who is partly paralyzed 

To stop a speeding driver who's about to collide 

With some pedestrians while they watch from the sidelines. 

Likewise, when someone is sad and insecure inside, 

It's not easy for them to assist you and be kind. 

~•~ 

Don't wait for any person to inform and remind 

You that you're special, guided by Allah the Most Wise, 

And actual joy can be found in Jannah Paradise. 

Motivate yourself and with Allah's Love stay inspired 

To maintain good manners and not copy the unkind. 

~•~ 

In a world where not everyone deserves Allah's Light, 

Keep calm, unaffected by jealous people's bad vibes, 

And thank Allah you're not like them suffering inside 

From envy, self-hatred, and lack of aim in their lives. 

Allah's Love suffices to inspire us day and night.

~•~ 

📖 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: Controlling Your Gaze Is From The Many Secrets Of Protecting Your Marriage

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

💌 One of the most effective ways which you, as your husband's fiercely loyal and grateful wife, can do to never be guilty of the major sin of zina (fornication / adultery) is purposely lowering your gaze when necessary. According to some researches, it is possible for two complete strangers, regardless of gender, to fall in "love" if they deliberately stare into each other's eyes for at least four minutes on condition they mutually find one another interesting or attractive somehow. 

Striving to control your gaze for Allah's sake isn't just done offline and in public places, but you're also required as a Muslim to be very careful with what you look at while browsing through social media. 

🌼 From the benefits of controlling your gaze: 

1] Your heart is shielded from unwanted or inappropriate feelings of attraction. The less you allow yourself to marvel at the beauty or handsomeness of some non-mahrams, the less chances are there in getting distracted from loving and appreciating the man whom Allah the Most Wise chose to give you as your husband/soulmate. 

2] Protecting your marriage from shaytan's evil plots to disrupt its peace. By lowering your gaze when necessary, you admirably prevent yourself from dissatisfaction with Allah's Destiny/Qadr and from insecurely comparing your spouse to other souls. 

3] The more you master the skill of controlling your gaze, the better you get at self-discipline, resilience, inner strength, Taqwa, and patience in staying away from the sins which Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala and His noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam warned against.

Quote: Reminder On The Prohibition Of Gossiping And Backbiting

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

🗒️ "If the banks were to pull out or withdraw from our savings every time we indulged in gossip or backbiting, and they transferred some of our money to the accounts of the people whom we gossiped about, we would try our best to stay quiet to protect our wealth. Is our fleeting wealth more important and precious than our remaining good deeds?" 

~•~ 

📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated that Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Do you know who is the bankrupt?" They said, “The one without money or goods is bankrupt.” The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Verily, the bankrupt of my nation are those who come on the Day of Resurrection with prayers, fasting, and charity, but also with insults, slander (gossiping, spreading rumors, and backbiting), consuming wealth, shedding blood (committing murder), and beating others. The oppressed (those whom they unfairly mistreated) will each be given from his good deeds. If his (the oppressor's) good deeds run out before justice is fulfilled, then their sins will be cast upon him and he (the oppressor who treated them wrongly) will be thrown into Jahannam/Hell."

Poem: How To Deal With One-Sided "Friendships"

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

🗒️ Some advice on how to deal with one-sided "friendships", 

Idle bonds in which one soul is too scared to connect, 

And from the reasons why they're passive, unresponsive, 

Or uncooperative are they're either jealous, 

Intimidated, or they can't fathom your language: 

~•~ 

Firstly, thank Allah that through them you're motivated 

To differ from their lack of manners, and their toxic

Ways of treating people based on unjust perspectives. 

Acknowledge that not all souls, such as yourself, were blessed 

To be brought up by parents who are educated. 

~•~ 

Understand there's a difference between messages 

Left unanswered due to the fact they weren't read yet 

And ones that are ignored repeatedly on purpose. 

When coping with the latter, stay patient, and know this - 

True love can't be forced. If they act like walls, forget it. 

~•~ 

Just as you can't force yourself to enjoy egg sandwich 

With apple slices inside and cobwebs beside it, 

People have a right to choose who deserves their friendship. 

It's not your fault if your bright vibes scare someone's sadness, 

And if your values don't align with what they cherish.

~•~ 

Though you and some souls aren't friends, stay kind and know this: 

Allah the Most Wise controls everything and chooses 

Who gets to befriend you, who's better off avoided, 

And who shows up in your life as a gift to perfect 

Your patience in leaving what Allah prohibited. 

~•~

Poem: When You Feel Like Complaining, Cry To Allah, Not His Servants

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

💌 Isn't it ironic when we feel like complaining 

To trusted loved ones or friends, seeking their opinions, 

Suggestions or solutions to some of our problems, 

We'd greet disappointment when nobody would listen, 

Yet when some whine to us we're not always listening? 

~•~ 

From the reasons why we can't give people attention 

Twenty-four-seven and we can't at all times welcome 

Complaints to guide the confused and heal the heartbroken: 

We're humans just like them, with our own set of problems, 

While sometimes we're prone to misjudgment and exhaustion. 

~•~ 

Even the strongest, the bravest and most confident 

Of warriors have their ups and downs, go through tough moments, 

And challenges that were sent by Allah to strengthen 

Our faith/Imaan, enlightenment, contentment, patience, 

And insight from Allah to trust no one except Him.

~•~

If on earth there's no confidant or close companion, 

Consider it as a blessing, and a protection 

From egocentric convos, misleading discussions, 

Invitations to indulge in lousy gossiping, 

Urges to lie, or confiding in the wrong persons. 

~•~ 

You need someone to hear you out? Seek Allah's Guidance. 

No one cares? That's not true. Allah sees us and listens 

To each word we utter, whisper, and hide from within. 

Allah always hears us. When you feel like complaining, 

Seek Allah's Help and know your secrets stay safe with Him.

~•~

Then they asked for charity again and he SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam gave them. Then they asked again and he SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam gave them until all he had was gone. The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "If I had anything, I would not withhold it. Whoever refrains from asking others, then Allah will make him content. Whoever would be independent, then Allah will make him independent. Whoever would be patient, then Allah will make him patient. There is no gift that is better and more comprehensive than patience."
