Note: Indicators Of Jealousy On Social Media And While Chatting

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

📝 Subtle and obvious signs that a person may be intensely jealous of you regardless of their age through chatting and social media: 
1] Although they claim to be educated and frequently capitalize the first letter of other individuals' names while chatting or commenting on posts, you notice an absurd pattern in them consistently misspelling your name (even though your correctly spelled name may be evident in your username) or typing it incorrectly all too often, as though they're desperate to show disrespect in any way to alleviate their unpleasant feelings of jealousy towards you and your blessings. 
2] While they regularly try to answer other Muslims' salaams online or on chat groups, they seem to be obnoxiously consistent in answering your messages or posts without responding to your salaams. Intentionally ignoring your greetings online and face to face may be their strange coping mechanism with debilitating feelings of extreme envy. 
3] If they're part of a chat group which you're a member of, they are consistently nonreactive or silent whenever you share some beneficial content or ask questions. However, as soon as you make a mistake or forward certain misinformation, they excitedly point out your errors, publicly scold or criticize you in the main body of the group chat instead of correcting or advising you one-on-one, and they do this a lot. Envious people would do whatever they can to upset you to enjoy a temporary feeling of "superiority".
4] On a regular basis they deliberately leave you out when tagging a number of users (on some of their status updates or while conversing in a chat group) who are your mutual acquaintances and you all were active participants in the same activity, despite being fully aware of your account and presence in the group conversation. 
5] You've never received a single compliment or congratulatory message from them whenever you shared joyful moments or uplifting news, in spite of them being "connected" with you on social media, and if ever you express gratitude to Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala or display any form of joy for an achievement, you've heard them say something like "you're just lucky", "good for you. I'm so jealous of you now", "jeez, why are you such a show-off?", "stop being narcissistic" or "whatever".

Poem: Not Lonely. Just Inspired By Allah To Leave Those Who Failed To Prove They Are Trustworthy.

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful 
📜 Trust me when I say this, I'm not the type that's clingy. 
I don't need the love of flawed humans to feel complete, 
Don't expect them to respect me while they frequently
Deal with foul envy and loads of insecurities, 
And I won't wait for them to greet me consistently.
~•~
Once I start believing that someone's untrustworthy, 
Unworthy of my trust, affection and energy, 
I gladly avoid them for Allah the Almighty,
As much as possible, to preserve my well-being. 
Their posts no longer appear on my Facebook news feed.
~•~
I unfollow them online, and offline don't go near 
Them as often as I can, not out of pride and fear 
But because I believe that Allah's Love is more dear 
To me than allowing toxic actors with severe 
Attachment to dunya to disrupt my goals and dreams.
~•~
Yes they distract me at times when they chat aimlessly, 
Discuss pointless matters, yap about "celebrities", 
Gossip about those whom they're jealous of intensely,
And decline invites when I ask them to learn with me 
More about Islam so our faith Imaan can increase.
~•~
The wrong pals are like leeches that watch you as you bleed. 
You're better off without their lies, lousy tendency
To deceive you and mislead, and without their appeals
To receive your loyalty for their clear fakery. 
Not "lonely". Blessed by Allah to leave tomfoolery.

Tips: There Are Reasons Why Allah The Most Wise Doesn't Want Us To Befriend Certain People

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
🗒️ Five reasons why Allah the Most Wise caused you to quit befriending certain souls whom He knows are actually bad for you, and detachment from them is really a blessing: 
1] Allah the Almighty saw how you were wasting so much time and energy whenever you were anywhere near them. For instance, you regularly spent two or more hours literally almost everyday chatting with them about futile issues and this fleeting dunya while you could be smartly utilizing those vacant periods to effectively strengthen your faith/Imaan by reading a lot about Islam and attentively listening to beneficial Islamic lectures. 
2] Allah the Almighty observed that in the hearts of those toxic individuals disguising themselves as "friends" linger undeniable envy, negative intentions and resentment. During the whole time they were pretending to vibe with you, they were just acting, intending to appear friendly only for their selfish gains. 
3] Allah the All-Knowing has seen how your companionship and closeness with them would have been so detrimental for your faith/Imaan and emotional well-being. 
4] Your willingness to open up to them at a point when you felt more at ease, revealing facts about yourself which are better kept confidential, was clearly known to Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala and He the Most Merciful prevented that from occuring for your own protection. 
5] Allah the Most Loving didn't want you to emotionally suffer whenever you had to tolerate listening to those narcissists' pointless chatter, absurd lies, frequent bragging, sinful gossip and abhorrent ridiculing of others. It's an evident sign that Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala wants you to succeed in both worlds when He distances you from every insecure and inwardly miserable individual who lacks genuine interest in self-development as a Muslim and their unpleasant presence acts as an obstacle to your goals. 
Imagine a true friend called "A" and a group of colleagues with many characteristics or interests in common. This clique is connected to other groups that are conspiring against you as though they are nosy spies who envy your lifestyle, marriage life or achievements. "A" would do whatever they can to stop you from becoming "close friends" with those people to shield you from their awful agenda. One must be grateful Alhamdulillah to be far away from anything which could ultimately lead to fitna.

Poem: Don't Fear Being Different As Long As You're In The Right Direction

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

📑 Dear fellow Muslimah, trust Allah the Almighty. 
With strong faith Imaan, never be affected by three: 
People's opinions of you - don't care how you're perceived; 
Temporary feelings - don't rely on how you feel; 
Large numbers - don't make choices based on majority.
~•~
Be like a real diamond. If this stone was placed near 
Decaying substances, the gem wouldn't disappear. 
Even if toxic posts on social media appear 
Daily, you remain unfazed by strangers' rants unclear. 
Their frequent complaints can't augment your worries and fears. 
~•~
This one cries "I'm lonely", that one "I've shed lots of tears. 
Nobody understands me. Why am I even here?" 
And several others online whine about severe 
Sadness or anxiety when "friends" disappeared, 
Forgetting the fact that Allah always sees and hears.
~•~
Be like a crow or eagle surrounded by white sheep, 
Not eager to sacrifice its feathers, wings and beak 
To blend in with mammals that have a weird tendency
To follow crowds and obey commands submissively. 
Don't shy away from being unique, to be more free.
~•~
Occasions when you were not invited were likely
Lessons to be more independent and to fully 
Depend on Allah Who knows what's best for you really. 
Purposeless socializing can disrupt your soul's peace.
Solitude turns to a gift when you spend time wisely.
~•~
If many wives complain "I hate my husband, as he 
Is too cheap and miserly.", don't be compelled to leave 
Your spouse because most females are influenced by greed. 
Don't copy the crowd. Don't be emotionally weak. 
No guilt in standing out as long as Allah is Pleased.
~•~
📖 Sa'd Ibn Abi Waqqas RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: I said, “O Messenger of Allah, which of the people are most severely tested?” The Messenger of Allah SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "They are the prophets, then the next best (in terms of piety), then the next best. A man is put to trial according to his Deen/religion. If he is firm in his religion, his trials will be more severe. If he is weak in his religion, he is put to trial according to his strength in religion. The servant will continue to be put to trial until he is left walking upon the earth without any sin."
