Poem: Avoid Needless Arguments.

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Allah is the Only Judge, with knowledge of who’s right.
As Muslims we invite, do Da'wah, while Allah guides
Whoever Allah chooses from jinn and humankind.
No need for endless debates with those who trust their lies.
~•~
If some want to testify that crocodiles are fruits,
When clearly they are reptiles and such claims aren’t true,
Stick to your own findings with confident attitude,
And walk away from those who don’t truly seek the truth.
~•~
Refusing to keep arguing doesn’t mean they’ve won.
If you’re sure that you’re correct, you’ll share the light, not force -
No use in forcing the lost to understand your words.
When numbers can’t believe in facts, it’s their loss, not yours.
~•~
Save your energy for those not defeated by pride,
Intelligent souls with soft hearts and an open mind,
Willing to learn, unafraid of being criticized,
Eager to tell apart reality from a lie.
~•~
Quit quarreling with arrogant types, to save your time.
So long as your faith stays strong, with Allah on your side,
Don’t fret if some of Allah’s slaves blame and criticize.
Who deserves Paradise - it’s for Allah to decide.
~•~
📖 Mu’adh Ibn Jabal RadhiAllahu ‘anhu narrated, “I guarantee a house on the outskirts of Paradise, a house in the middle of Paradise, and a house in the highest part of Paradise for one who gives up arguing even if he is right, who gives up lying even while joking, and who makes his character excellent.”

Poem: You Don't Need To Be Perfect, Just Do Your Best.

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 As Muslims, Alhamdulillah, do not be depressed.
Be grateful to Allah you’re among those He guided
To the Truth Islam, with Taqwa to pass every test.
You’re not expected to be perfect; just do your best
To serve Allah until Jannah is where you can rest.
~•~
When you feel you’re lacking something, recall those with less.
Not pretty enough? Inner beauty shines through kindness,
While beautiful hearts glow by practicing forgiveness.
Worried about small income? It’s fine. You can get rich
By saying Du'a and striving to stay contented.
~•~
Can’t afford branded shoes? Know some have paralyzed legs,
Numbers can’t see, while some survive without arms or wrists.
Don’t own a luxury house? Remember the homeless,
Those behind bars, refugees worldwide, and the oppressed.
Jannah, not dunya, is where we’ll find eternal bliss.
~•~
Feeling misunderstood? Unwanted? Somehow friendless?
With Mercy from Allah, there’s no need to be distressed.
So long as Allah loves us, we won’t be affected
Negatively by offence and insults from critics.
Pleasing Allah, not His slaves, keeps us motivated.
~•~
Remind yourself, this world’s hardships are temporal tests.
Strive for success in both worlds with your desires suppressed.
Maintain patience for Allah and you’ll be rewarded.
Pray that we meet Allah in Jannah, and His Prophets,
As a prize for not giving up Islam when tested.
~•~
📖 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.“

Poem: You Can Forgive And Move On.

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 While being forgiving is a pleasant quality,
Reconciling with wrong friends is not necessary.
Forget reestablishing ties with toxicity,
Negativity and those who are untrustworthy.
~•~
Have enough self-respect to preserve your well-being,
And protect your faith through correct choice of companions.
Detach from people who find enjoyment in lying,
Pretending, backbiting and messing with your feelings.
~•~
The first fault was a mistake, the second a warning,
A wrongdoing done the third time is a decision,
Clear evidence that the person wasn’t listening,
A signal to let go of their toxic influence.
~•~
Don’t do business nor share your dreams with the following:
The jealous, the unhelpful, those filled with suspicion,
Those who spread gossip about you or other persons,
And those who reach out selfishly when they need something.
~•~
As a Muslim, balance between justice and mercy.
Make right decisions that don’t affect your piety.
While striving to maintain manners with everybody,
Trust Allah Only. Learn from mistakes. Don’t be naive.
~•~
📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu ‘anhu narrated: Allah’s noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, “The believer is not stung twice from the same hole.”

Poem: While She Loves Her Husband, She Loves Allah More.

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 While she loves her husband, her love for Allah is more,
Much deeper than she has her self and desires adored.
After many years of marriage, she didn’t get bored,
With her loyalty getting stronger, she kept her word.
~•~
This loyal wife keeps loving him even if love hurts
When her other half struggles to find success at work,
Not granting sufficient time that this lady deserves.
“In Jannah we’ll be together” she would tell herself.
~•~
Her attraction to her spouse has stayed true from the start,
Even if he remarried, it didn’t break her heart,
Aware her man has rights and to him she’s not attached,
Her man loving another doesn’t decrease her love.
~•~
Stubborn and resilient for Allah, she won’t give up.
The love she promised to grant her soulmate remains tough,
Genuine and firm, unaffected by any crush
Or obstacles pointed at by shaytan to distract.
~•~
If her lips were destined by Allah to touch her man’s,
She’s willing to forever love him and understand
His flaws, forgive, and together learn about Islam
Until Allah destines Jannah is where they’ll both land.
~•~
📖 Thawban RadhiAllahu ‘anhu narrated: When the verse was revealed, “And those who hoard gold and silver,” (9:34), some of the companions said, “This was revealed about gold and silver. Were it only revealed that we may know which wealth is best to take.” The Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, “The best wealth is a tongue that remembers Allah, a grateful heart, and a believing wife to help him in his faith.”
In another narration, the Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, “And a believing wife to help one of you in matters of the Hereafter.”

Poem: It's Not Your Fault If You're Disliked By Certain People

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 At times in this dunya, you’ll meet some people who loathe
And resent you instantly even though they don’t know
Your history, background, what makes you tick, laugh and grow.
These are souls whom Allah didn’t choose to get along.
~•~
To some foes, you’re not good enough; to others, too much.
Some haters’ indifference stems from feeling jealous,
Others’ grudges form when they fear you’re too religious,
Or how you seem on the outside makes them suspicious.
~•~
It’s not your fault if you’re disliked by certain people.
You were born to serve Allah, not to be likable
By Allah’s servants who got their own flaws and struggles.
For how they treat you and others they’re accountable.
~•~
It’s normal to not like someone who differs from you,
Whose bad vibes or motives clash with your good attitude,
And who envies your life because they’re too insecure.
Don’t let their sadness cause your inner peace to reduce.
~•~
Know that Allah’s Prophets had enemies of their own.
So avoid self-doubt when ex-friends want you left alone.
We still have Allah Who knows us before we were born,
And to Allah we’ll return, in Jannah our true home.
~•~
📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu ‘anhu narrated: Allah’s noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, “Love whom you love mildly, perhaps he will become hateful to you someday. Hate whom you hate mildly, perhaps he will become your beloved friend someday.”
