Tips: Trust Allah The Almighty And Do Not Worry About Matters Which We Can't Always Control

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
🗒️ Do not overthink about three things: 
1] Do not overthink about poverty (or insufficient income), because doing so can increase your worries and sorrow, and it could lead to being overly obsessed with dunya/worldly matters. 
2] Do not overthink about the injustices done by those who have oppressed you, as your heart may become hardened out of resentment, your grudge intensifies, emotional unrest or bitterness is prolonged.
3] And do not overthink about longevity or living a long life in this temporal world, as doing so can make a person love hoarding, waste most of one's lifetime pursuing unproductive interests, and procrastinate the more important duties and responsibilities related to thriving in the Hereafter. 
At all times trust Allah the Almighty Who controls everything and do not worry about matters which we humans can't always control.
📖 Umar Ibn Al-Khattab RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "If you were to rely upon Allah with reliance due to Him, He (Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala) would provide for you just as He provides for the birds. They go out in the morning with empty stomachs and return full (satisfied)."

Poem: Three Tips To Patiently Cope With Feelings Of Regret

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Three tips to patiently cope with feelings of regret, 
To stop dwelling on mistakes you ignorantly did, 
To quit scolding yourself for past incorrect choices, 
And to be able to move on, glad and contented, 
As Muslims, accepting what Allah prevents and gives:
~•~
One: The stronger your faith in Allah, the easier 
It becomes to accept Allah's Qadr with Sabr, 
Aware that Allah has full control of all matters, 
And when you're from Allah's allies, He only offers 
What's best for your soul in this world and the Hereafter. 
~•~
Two: You gain nothing from crying over what happened, 
Opportunities missed, and perplexing incidents. 
Since your deeds with their outcomes were by Allah destined, 
One way to deal with problems is to practice patience. 
Allah loves believers who for His sake stay patient.
~•~
Three: Each occurrence may carry important lessons, 
Such as: Next time, slow down. Check your inbox more often. 
Avoid rushing when you can. Don't trust the wrong persons. 
If you feel reluctant, your secrets don't reveal them. 
Choose your words carefully. You're safer when you're silent.
~•~
Say "Alhamdulillah" for every lesson you've learned. 
The fact that we sometimes make errors and misjudgements 
Reminds us we're Allah's servants; we're only humans. 
This inspires us to ask Allah for further guidance, 
And when we fail any test, we rush to repentance.
~•~
📖 Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated that some people from the Ansaar asked Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam, and he gave them. Then they asked for charity again and he gave them. Then they asked again and he gave them until all he had was gone. The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "If I had anything, I would not withhold it. Whoever refrains from asking others, then Allah will make him content. Whoever would be independent, then Allah will make him independent. Whoever would be patient, then Allah will make him patient. There is no gift that is better and more comprehensive than patience."

Grade: Sahih (Authentic) according to Al-Bukhari
📖 Ibn 'Abbas RadhiAllahu 'anhuma narrated: I was riding behind the Messenger of Allah SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam when he said to me, "Young man, I will teach you some words. Be mindful of Allah and He will protect you. Be mindful of Allah and you will find Him before you. If you ask, ask from Allah. If you seek help, seek help from Allah. Know that if the nations were to gather together to benefit you, they will not benefit you unless Allah has decreed it for you. And if the nations gathered together to harm you, they will not harm you unless Allah has decreed it for you. The pens have been lifted and the pages have dried."

📖 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: Seven Signs That Indicate Jealousy In Friends Or Acquaintances

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Seven warning signs or red flags your "friend" is jealous, 
Things to watch out for to spot someone who's envious, 
So you can take a step back, ensure you're protected 
From confiding in disguised foes who conceal hatred 
And who'd celebrate if your image is demolished:
~•~
One: With tips and compliments they're absurdly selfish. 
Seeing you in a good mood makes them feel discouraged. 
Two: They expect you to support their works and projects 
Yet when it comes to your goals, they're so unsupportive. 
Attempts to connect with them prove the bond's one-sided.
~•~
Three: When talking to them, the usual discussed topics 
Involve their dear selves, their problems, plans and tasks they did. 
When it's your turn to speak, they'd ditch you or go quiet. 
Four: They joke at your expense, laugh when you're embarrassed, 
And seldom defend you when you're hurt or insulted.
~•~
Five: To inflate their ego or sense they're accomplished, 
They copy your style not so rapport is established 
But to steal your joys through being too competitive. 
Six: They sulk when by others you're congratulated. 
Not once you got from them "Congrats!", "Mabrook!", "You've made it!"
~•~
Seven: Your kind heart, gifts or skills they can't acknowledge, 
Yet when it comes to your mistakes, mishaps and defects,
They're excited to diss, throw shade, or micromanage. 
Be patient with their jealousy - self-imposed distress.
Shun souls consumed by envy to save them from unrest.
~•~
📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Do not envy each other, do not outbid each other, do not hate each other, do not turn away from each other, and do not outsell each other. Rather, be servants of Allah as brothers. The Muslim is the brother of another Muslim. He does not wrong him, nor humiliate him, nor look down upon him. Righteousness is here," and he pointed to his chest three times. The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "It is enough evil for a man to look down upon his Muslim brother. The entirety of the Muslim is sacred to another Muslim: his life, his wealth, and his reputation."

What is a heart swept clean?” The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "One that is mindful of Allah and pure, in which there is no sin, nor aggression, nor envy." We said, “Who shows a sign of it?” The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "One who hates worldliness and loves the Hereafter." They said, “And who shows a sign of it?” The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "A believer with good character."

Poem: Three Reasons Why We Cannot Click With Certain People (On Incompatibility)

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful 
💌 Three likely reasons why we can't vibe with certain souls, 
Why convos with some people seem fishy, fake, and forced, 
And why though their figures and names are loads of times shown, 
It's hard to like them, we're glad if they leave us alone, 
And we're aware our feelings can't always be controlled:
~•~
First reason: We're different. There's conflict in our goals. 
If we choose to go upwards, they take the downward slope, 
If their vibes conceal dark lies, while ours shine bright like gold, 
If we strive for Jannah's joys, as they're glued to this world, 
In later becoming close friends there's no chance at all.
~•~
Second: They're a threat, or vice versa. There's no comfort 
In their company. No good can be gained from their words. 
Their love for gossip or drama just makes matters worse. 
One envies the other, or there's envy in you both, 
And the more you interact, grudge and doubts only grow. 
~•~
Third: Your disaccord was destined since long time ago. 
Allah the Most Wise didn't decree you'd get along. 
Regardless of disharmony, bad manners don't show. 
Treat them politely. From their unpleasantries move on. 
Aim for Allah's Love, not to be liked by every soul.
~•~
📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "The souls are like conscripted soldiers. They come together upon what they recognize, and they differ upon what they reject."
