Note: Importance Of Avoiding Sins Publicly And Privately As Much As Possible

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Beware of appearing to be devout, righteous, and practicing through the Islamic posts you sometimes share, religious phrases you frequently utter, and modest clothing you wear yet when you think you're alone and no human is watching, you'd spoil yourself with certain sins which other Muslims may never imagine you'd be commiting. The following are some examples of wrongdoings which many may be guilty of, and they'd be doing themselves a huge favor if they hasten to Tawbah/repentance if they don't want their good deeds to be invalidated on the Day of Judgment: 
1] Masturbation. If you can't afford to touch yourself indecently in front of your own parents, it is even more important that you avoid masturbating in front of Allah the Almighty and His noble Angels who are assigned to record your intentional actions and statements. 
2] Listening to songs and watching music videos, when you've previously made it clear that listening to music as a recreational activity or hobby is haraam/forbidden. 
3] Watching porn and inappropriate films while hypocritically commanding Muslims to refrain from watching movies. 
4] Involving oneself in plagiarism, forgery and any form of deceit, while warning Muslims against betrayal and purposely telling lies.
5] Trying zina (fornication, adultery) with somebody of the opposite and/or the same gender through sexting, phone sex or clandestinely meeting up in a hotel, dormitory, or during sleepovers, then when you're in public together you act as though you have no feelings for each other.
6] Nosily interfering with others' private lives and spying without any legitimate reason. For example, when someone unfriends a Facebook user only for the latter to sign up for new accounts to be able to see their friends-only status updates. If a Muslim unfriended you on social media, patiently move on and stop worrying about what's going on in their current lives.
7] Drinking alcoholic beverages or knowingly consuming haraam foods when you consistently remind others to stick to what's halal. 

May Allah the Most Merciful forgive all our sins and mistakes, and keep us away from hypocrisy/nifaaq. Ameen.

Thawban RadhiAllahu 'anhu said, “O Messenger of Allah, describe them to us and tell us more, so that we will not become like them.” The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "They are your brothers and from your ehtnicity, taking up worship at night as you do, but they will be people who transgress the sacred limits of Allah when they are alone."

Poem: Questions To Ask Yourself Before Wanting To Share Some Secrets

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Questions to ask yourself before you share a secret 
With those whom you think are good friends who can be trusted, 
Seeking helpful advice or words to feel comforted, 
So your choice to open up doesn't lead to regret, 
As confessions instigate crisis in most cases: 
~•~
This friend you're about to confide in - are they honest? 
Do they fear Allah and try their best to pass His tests? 
Of your blessings are you sure they're not one bit jealous? 
Can you promise that they're not into pranks and gossip, 
That they won't betray you if ever they get upset? 
~•~ 
Are you certain they can't capture screenshots of your text 
And convos to forward to others the things you said? 
If you chat in a place that's quiet and secluded, 
Can you fully assure this human won't be tempted 
To mock you or have your voice secretly recorded? 
~•~ 
If having feelings for them is what you want confessed, 
Can you guarantee that your confessing won't damage 
The respect they have for you or your stable friendship? 
What if they relate to you, they're also attracted, 
Will you harm yourselves by doing what's prohibited?
~•~ 
Disclosing your intimate or sensitive secrets 
To Allah's servants brings more disasters than solace. 
If concealing particular info causes stress, 
Transfer your worries to your prayer mat or carpet 
And say Du'a. Talk to Allah, you won't regret it.
~•~

Mu'adh said, “And what else, O Messenger of Allah?” The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "And that you love for the people what you love for yourself, and you hate for them what you hate for yourself, and you speak goodness or remain silent."

Poem: Some Signs Your Husband's Love For You Is Clear And Undeniable

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Some subtle signs your husband loves you undoubtedly,
Whether you're his only wife or in polygyny:
He tries to spend time with you even though he's busy,
At least you're in his thoughts if he's in a far city,
Reading your text messages, calling regularly.
~•~
If he lets you massage or touch him physically,
And he's willing to listen to you speak endlessly,
You know he cares, and his caring isn't fantasy.
When he genuinely asks about your family,
And thinking of you often helps him sleep peacefully,
~•~
His love is real, more so when he attempts to act sweet -
Through offering to feed you by hand when he would eat,
Allowing you to wear his jacket for you to keep,
When around non-mahrams encouraging modesty,
Reminding you to put on the hijaab properly,
~•~
Waking you up for Salah when he awakes early,
Seeing you without make-up, still finding you sexy,
Knowing you have enemies then becoming worried,
Loving how you enjoy his children's bedtime stories,
And when he neglects you, inside he's feeling guilty.
~•~
You know he loves you when, though you don't see him daily,
He pronounces your name in his Du'as frequently,
Thanking Allah for a wife who loves him patiently.
So don't you leave him. Together rise in piety
Till you reach Jannah where lovers can love perfectly.
~•~

Poem: Maintain Taqwa, Good Manners, Contentment, Empathy, And Patience To Prevent Spousal Abuse

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Know what to avoid, as your husband's respectful wife, 
So you don't end up being one of those battered wives 
Or newlyweds who feel "abused" or unsatisfied 
When by the husband's bad temper they get terrified. 
Prevent spousal abuse through Taqwa and deeds upright. 
~•~
Refrain from interrogating him when he arrives, 
Specially when his gestures and face signal he's tired. 
Instead of whining, "why are you late?", "Again you lie!", 
And "next time don't disappoint, or I'll take your kids/child.",
Gently welcome him and thank Allah he's still alive. 
~•~ 
Strive to stay away from actions which your spouse dislikes, 
Including pestering him when he is clearly tired, 
Poking or shoving him when he's a more serious type, 
Playing childish pranks, playfully smacking his behind, 
And messing around while he has tasks to finalize. 
~•~ 
With a sensitive guy or one who struggles with pride, 
Be kind and ensure the words he hears from you are nice. 
Sometimes the complaints of  most women can amplify 
Insecure men's urge to react furiously or strike. 
At times your silence is wiser than proving you're right. 
~•~ 
Your husband, a trust and gift from Allah the Most Wise, 
Should be handled with care and patience, each day and night. 
He's not a stuffed toy to yell at whenever you like 
Nor a fictional genie that can grant all desires. 
He's your friend and soulmate - invite him to Paradise. 
~•~ 
Don't diss his parents, siblings and loved ones from his side, 
Even if you intend to rectify or advise. 
Politely correct mistakes which he can't recognize 
In a one-on-one manner and considerate style, 
Whilst praying for his progress every once in a while. 
~•~
Don't be defeated by greed and this temporal life. 
Be pleased with what your dear zawj can afford and provide, 
Conscious of the fact that the pleasures in Paradise 
Are more lasting and worthwhile than dunya's brief delights. 
To thrive in both worlds, be your husband's respectful wife.
~•~

Hadith: Allah's Mercy And Justice


📖 Abu Dharr RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Allah the Almighty said: 'O My servants, I have forbidden injustice for Myself and I have forbidden it among you, so do not oppress one another. O My servants, all of you are astray except for those I have guided, so seek guidance from Me and I shall guide you. O My servants, all of you are hungry except for those I have fed, so seek food from Me and I shall feed you. O My servants, all of you are naked except for those I have clothed, so seek clothing from Me and I shall clothe you. O My servants, you sin by night and day and I forgive all sins, so seek forgiveness from Me and I shall forgive you. O My servants, you are unable to harm Me and you are unable to bring benefit to Me. O My servants, were the first of you and the last of you, the human of you and the jinn of you, to be as pious as the most pious heart of anyone of you, that would not increase My dominion at all. O My servants, were the first of you and the last of you, the human of you and the jinn of you, to be as wicked as the most wicked heart of anyone of you, that would not decrease My dominion at all. O My servants, were the first of you and the last of you, the human of you and the jinn of you, to rise up in one place and make a request of Me, and were I to give everyone what he requested, that would not diminish what I have any more than a needle would diminish the sea if put into it. O My servants, it is only your deeds that I record and then recompense for you. Let him who finds good praise Allah, and let him who finds something else blame no one but himself."
