Poem: Some Ways To Detect Jealous Haters

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Ways to identify self-hating, jealous haters,
Who are too insecure they deny Allah's Qadr,
Unwilling to thank Allah for His chosen favors,
So they devalue themselves by envying others:
~*~
Though not connected to you on Facebook, they're lurkers,
Addicted to hatefully stalking your reminders,
Disregarding your good traits, fearful you seem better,
Forgetting their own gifts and kindness they can offer.
~*~
Most of their posts are passive-aggressive, meant to cure
And appease their envious selves when not self-assured.
Why can't they directly confront the ones they abhor?
Are they that dismal they use gossip to feel secure?
~*~
Those guilty of envy can be spotted through their words,
When they discuss your flaws, accuse you and bash your works,
Magnify your mistakes and have your questions ignored,
And when they're speechless as your joys make them feel much worse.
~*~
Chatty and cheery only when they see you suffer,
These jealous fault-finders don't deserve your side tender,
Your Du'as, close companionship and cheerful laughter.
Do yourself a favor and avoid those sad stalkers.
~*~
Let them give you their rewards whenever they blabber
Online and offline about you while feeling bitter.
Be grateful we're nothing like them in lacking manners.
Dismiss their bad vibes. Develop your good character.
~*~
Envious foes who hate seeing you climb the ladder
Are among Allah's tests that can be passed through Sabr.
Say "HasbunAllah wa Ne'm Al-Wakeel". Don't falter.
It's not your fault if your kind heart makes dark souls triggered.

Note: The Virtues Of Seeking Islamic Knowledge

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 While Allah the Almighty grants worldly joys to both people whom He loves and those whom He does not love, He gives understanding of Islam exclusively to those who are beloved to Him. Access to Islamic lectures online, ability to frequently attend religious classes, and enjoying learning about Islam are among the signs that you are loved by Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala.
Being skilled in speaking foreign languages like Korean, being a math genius, having memorized the biographies of renowned scientists or celebrities, receiving the title "professor", or graduating from a top-notch university with a doctorate degree will not benefit at all when one's body is buried in the grave after leaving this temporary world.
Only the ignorant who are unaware of dunya's reality would regard Muslims who enthusiastically study about Islam as "outdated" and "uneducated". If some parents insist on sending their kids to supposedly the best educational institutions, so they can with Allah's Will become proficient employees or medical staff in the future, they should at least encourage them to never stop seeking Islamic knowledge from reliable sources. Authentic knowledge of Islam, accompanied by sincerity, is an essential asset which can guarantee success and contentment in both worlds.

The virtue of the scholar over the worshiper is like the superiority of the moon over the stars. The scholars are the inheritors of the Prophets.

Note: Love Your Husband For Allah And Your Marriage Is A Blessing

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 One of the secrets that lead to a contented marriage life, with Allah's Will besides marrying for the sake of Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala sincerely, is surrounding yourself with pious friends who encourage one another to be loyal, grateful and faithfully patient wives to their husbands. You can't expect to be an ideal wife if you're surrounded by overdramatic and materialistic bimbos who are controlled by their fluctuating emotions, constantly giving you indirect hints to leave your husband without even trying to resolve issues wholeheartedly.
Scrolling through my news feed and then stumbling upon an immature status update on how a female user woefully broadcasts her hatred for ex-husband is an irresistible invitation to hit the "unfriend" button and gladly quit checking that user's timeline in the future. I unapologetically disassociate myself especially from anyone who is idiotic enough to describe their marriage life "like hell". You can't liken anything in this world, no matter how awful or depressing, to "Hell" since Jahannam is obviously a place where you haven't been in and don't plan on even seeing. If you had the intellectual capacity to settle matters between you and the man whom Allah the Most Wise chose as your other half, your bond could've progressed gradually with patience and gratitude.
Marital problems usually occur when:
1] ...the wife decides to disrespect her husband and pridefully neglects his rights until he makes the first move, not knowing that maybe the reason why he seems so aloof is because he's actually struggling from severe depression or overtiredness from work.
2] ...some of the wife's shady friends incessantly persuade her to ditch her man for a new guy, so one of them could take her place, or so she ends up being a divorcee like some of them are.
3] ...some obnoxiously jealous outsiders carried out black magic, sorcery or witchcraft against the couple, which explains their frequent quarrels, passive-aggressive behavior and silent treatments that surface from the most petty reasons.
4] ...the woman greedily prefers dunya and her selfish desires more than serving Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala. So she finds it difficult to imagine living several years demonstrating loyalty to her husband.
5] ...it's the husband's initial fault in allowing their love to decline, but the wife doesn't care enough to make effort to talk things out together.
Marriage is a trust and amaanah from Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala. Thus we mustn't take it lightly. If a Muslimah truly loves her husband ever since they got married from day one, she'd do whatever she can patiently for Allah's sake to keep the marriage alive, praying that she and her soulmate can enjoy eternal bliss and everlasting perfection in Jannah Paradise.
Reminder to say Du'a today Jumuah Friday before Salat Al-Mahgreb, even for a few minutes, including the Ummah, as well as your loved ones in your Du'as.

📖 Ibn 'Abbas RadhiAllahu 'anhuma narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said: "I was shown the Hellfire and (found) that the majority of its dwellers were women who were ungrateful." It was asked, "Do they disbelieve in Allah?" (or are they ungrateful to Allah?) He SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam replied, "They are ungrateful to their husbands and are ungrateful for the favors and the good (charitable deeds) done to them. If you have always been good (benevolent) to one of them and then she sees something in you (not of her liking), she will say, 'I have never received any good from you."

The rest of his deeds will be judged the same way."
