Note: INTJs Don't "Play Hard To Get". If We're Interested We Grant Full Attention

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful 
🗒️ Question: As an INTJ-A personality type, give some examples of how very selective you are when it comes to befriending and being curious about others? 
📑 Answer: Some examples depicting how choosy I am regarding my choice of close friends and who deserves my full attention at times:- 
1. Regularly waking up from vivid and unforgettable dreams and imagining how nice it would be to discuss what they could mean, but refraining from mentioning what I dreamt of to certain individuals because I know for sure they're not trustworthy.
2. Browsing around social media late at night for several minutes and noticing that so-and-so is online, yet I don't feel interested in reaching out to them although I've got the energy and ability to type quickly Alhamdulillah and chat for long periods about random topics. 
3. Someone whose vibes I don't trust informs me about their Facebook profile or website and I show absolute zero interest in scanning and evaluating the pages they desperately wish I'd look at.
4. Despite not being busy in the workplace or during a gathering for some minutes at times, I would rather browse around my mobile phone or read something such as a downloaded PDF document than start a long conversation with a colleague or mere acquaintance who's just a few steps away. 
5. Not bothering to ask how someone's vacation or trip went when we haven't communicated with each other for many days, even though I believe I'm capable Alhamdulillah of asking a wide range of questions when I am genuinely interested in something or somebody e.g. "oh you were at the same hotel which I and my family stayed at when we traveled to that city before. Did you feel the floor rotating at their revolving buffet restaurant? How often did you go out for sightseeing or did you mostly relax indoors? Have you visited such and such a place? What are some of the most memorable activities you did? Anything funny or intriguing which you discovered? Did you try riding a camel? What about a carriage pulled by two or more horses? Tell me all about your journey, I'm all ears." etc. 
➡️ When I am uninterested in connecting with someone on a more personal level, because they've already shown me how unreliable or inauthentic they are, or I figured that our goals and temperament are too mismatched, I: 
1. Don't take 99% of their acts, promises, statements and stories they invent seriously.
2. Don't bother checking out their social media posts and websites etc. 
3. Refuse to prolong most conversations with them, and I avoid unnecessarily talking to them as much as possible. 
4. Almost never mention their names to others (unless another individual has the same name as theirs) if there's nothing positive to state about them. 
5. Almost never request for their advice and opinion on anything, until they prove to be reliable and not guilty of even an ounce of jealousy.

Note: 15 Awful Things To Never Say To Your Husband If You Want To Keep Him For Allah's Sake

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful 
💎 Fifteen disrespectful statements to never say to your husband, if you wish to protect your marriage from divorce, arguments and pointless drama:
1. "You're so useless; all you do is play games and spy on other people's lives, obsessed with nosily watching pretentious vlogs of strangers who have nothing to do with you, as if you've got no goals and meaningful life of your own."
2. "I'm immature? Look who's talking! The oversized boy who gets offended easily and acts all passive-aggressive whenever his brittle feelings get hurt." 
3. "If you're a real man, then divorce me - now!"
4. "You're just like your dad - uneducated and ineffective at managing one's time and family." 
5. "You are so ignorant. How stupider can you get?" 
6. "You're very irresponsible. Sometimes I wonder how old you actually are." 
7. "It's funny and sad (pathetic) at the same time to see you acting like you're all that, when in actuality you are also flawed and full of unappealing qualities."
8. "Did you know that my father and brothers are a lot more masculine than you? Then again, I understand that your closeness to your mother is probably why you're not as manly as other men."
9. "Why are you "ALWAYS" late?" 
10. "How come you "NEVER" buy me anything nice and memorable?" 
11. "Can you be at least five percent romantic as my friend's husband?"
12. "We should go out for dinner almost "EVERY" night together like the husband of so-and-so." 
13. "I wish we never met." 
14. "If only I didn't say yes to your marriage proposal..." 
15. "I wish you looked more like this celebrity..."

AstaghfurAllah Al-'Atheem. 

Always remind yourself of why you willingly agreed to this marriage for Allah's sake and recall your husband's numerous handsome characteristics whenever shaytan tries to make you despise or disrespect him due to obnoxious pride / blameworthy kibr.

Tips: Sharing Some 11 Tips To Minimize Or Avoid Mental Fatigue

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

✅ Sharing some tips 
Inn-sha-Allah to minimize or avoid mental fatigue and headaches:- 
1. Always remind yourself of why Allah the Almighty created us in the first place - to worship nothing and nobody except to worship Him Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala. 
2. Do your best to please Only Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala and refuse to be affected by what people claim and assume about you. Those who often treat you badly are either guilty of intense jealousy towards you because they witness and acknowledge the fact that you're a lot better and more blessed than them in many ways, or they're actually so unhappy with themselves that they try to upset you whenever they can since they don't want to be the only ones struggling emotionally. Feel sorry for them and ignore their negativity. 
3. Never compare your unique life story with others' journeys. Don't bother following social media posts and watching pretentious vlogs on YouTube which cause you to feel "unsatisfied" or "less than" in any way. Give your attention only to valuable content which can motivate and inspire you to become a better and more educated Muslim. 
4. Frequently calm your heart and soul by saying lots of Adhkaar and Du'a. Also read as many times as you can from the Noble Qur'an, at least two pages from the Mushaf every other night and/or day. Reading from the Noble Qur'an shouldn't be done just in Ramadan but it should be a part of your daily routine as a striving Muslim. 
5. Avoid anything and anybody online and offline which could trigger negative emotions such as envy, annoyance and frustration. If you're unable to stay away 24/7 from certain things and individuals that are toxic, train yourself to have patience with their presence without directly involving yourself with them as much as possible - as if you're in a store and you completely ignore browsing around the shelves displaying cigarettes and intoxicants. 
6. Develop your connection with Allah the Almighty by praying more Sunnah prayers on a regular basis, at least two Sunnah Rak'ahs of Salat Ad-Duha before you start your day after sunrise and at least two Sunnah Rak'ahs of Salat At-Tahajjud / Qiyaam Al-Layl late at night, making sure you have prayed Salat Al-Witr as well.
7. Steadfastly and enthusiastically keep learning about Islam through reliable sources whenever you find the opportunity to seek authentic knowledge and apply for Allah's sake what you have learned. 
8. Learn to let go of what you can't control. If you can't force something, let it go for Allah's sake and pray that Allah the All-Knowing deals with it at the most ideal timing. Understand that as human beings it is impossible to achieve absolute perfection in this temporary and imperfect world.
9. Instead of constantly regretting about what you could have and should have done in the past, admit to Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala that you've made some mistakes and humbly ask Allah the Most Forgiving for His forgiveness and guidance. Learn to not repeat previous errors and if you err again, do Tawbah and continue learning with humility.
10. Focus on trying your best to pass Allah's tests, while never allowing your fear of people's opinions to become greater than your fear of Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala. All humankind and jinn will 
Inn-sha-Allah have their actions and statements questioned about on the Day of Judgment.
11. Take naps and rest whenever you feel tired or sleepy, while listening to some calming Qur'an recitations and again say a lot of Dhikr and Du'a as many times as you can until you meet Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala 
Inn-sha-Allah in a peaceful state.

Rather say: "Allah has decreed what He wills." Verily, the phrase ‘if only’ opens the way for the work of shaytan."

Note: Avoid Negative And Irrelevant Notes On Facebook Messenger Application


🌸 Some tips on how to hide or temporarily remove random users with irrelevant notes on Facebook messenger which are negative, unmotivating or questionable: 
1. Select the user whose nonsensical or depressing note you wish to conceal. Long press with one of your thumbs if you're utilizing an android phone. 
2. Press "hide contact" unapologetically. 
3. Gladly unfriend that user if they regularly post negative notes and block them for Allah's sake, avoid associating with them online and offline as much as possible, if necessary, not out of "arrogance" but to shield your emotional well-being from ignorant acts and excessive negativity.





✅ Some examples of positive notes: 
1. Reminders to say Dhikr often such as "Alhamdulillah always", "Laa hawla wa laa quwwata illaaBillaah" and "AstaghfurAllah Al-'Atheem".
2. Announcements regarding important events such as "Ramadan Mubarak", "sisters' Islamic circle at my place today 3:45 pm to 4:45 pm" and "don't forget to attend this afternoon's halaqa everyone!" 
3. Uplifting and inspiring messages, not negative ones, such as "For Allah's sake stay strong, patient and beautiful inside out", "Only Allah the Almighty can judge us. Don't worry about how Allah's servants perceive us." and "A tough wife welcomes polygyny coz her love, fierce loyalty, contentment, gratitude and patience with her hubby is bigger than ugly ego".

Poem: If Divorce Was A Door I'd Never Want It Opened

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

💌 Divorce is despicable, simply adds more problems, 
Stirs up drama in most cases in my opinion, 
And shows that those who gave up weren't truly trying
Their best to save the union since what's more important
Is foul pride which exceeds their drive to find solutions.
~•~
Divorce is like doors designed with fake advertisements 
Directing to false bargains which I don't want opened, 
Even if those who access them are wealthy women 
Who regard divorce as "courage" and "independence" - 
It's a trap, in my opinion, increasing problems.
~•~
Divorce is like a bridge that leads to dismal islands. 
Those who cross it often greet grief instead of "freedom",
And thoughts like "I shouldn't have left" may sometimes tease them, 
If the former lovers had a child or some children, 
Or the woman's ex was well-received by her parents.
~•~
Divorce is like a neon sign, I can imagine, 
Flickering at night and catching drivers' attention, 
Causing more destruction and remorse than enjoyment. 
Even if large crowds bought its message, I'd stay stubborn
And resilient for Allah's sake with my dear husband.
~•~
Even if divorce disguised itself as a close friend 
Pleading, "if you choose me, I guarantee contentment", 
I'd likely ditch it with "you're lawful but revolting.".
Most divorcees actually lacked strong faith and patience, 
And more than sincere love their ego was important.
~•~
📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "A woman is married for four things, i.e. her wealth, her family status, her beauty, and her religion.
