POEM: To Understand Sinners Is Knowing Their True Motives

In The Name Of Allah
The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

Seek first to understand then be understood.

You see these 'fakes' obeying shaytan's puppets,

Making gestures that prove they can't be trusted,
Teaching misconduct, supporting injustice,
Understand that these 'fakes' are best avoided.

Wrongdoers who commit wrongs once in a while,
Who sin by mistake, or don't know yet what's right,
Show mercy, try to guide them, share your advice,
Note: If they're too stubborn, don't give them your time.

As for those with whom you have close relations,
Who at times may neglect you from coercion,

Grant them fairness or more space, understand them,
Mention them in sincere du'as now and then.

So when a few are aloof, they are but fake,

When their false or forced acts are sensed miles away.
Now when one seems genuinely led astray,
Be generous enough to show the Straight Way.

Understand, when some sin just for attention,
After advice choose another direction.
With the lost who need help still try to guide them.
Love only those who want Allah and Heaven.

Some Good Deeds To Do In Ramadan Checklist:

[   ] Always say the morning and evening adhkaarAllah and 
pray more Sunnah prayers including Salat Ad-Duha and Qiyam Al-Layl.
[   ] Read from the Noble Qur'an after the obligatory salahs and whenever 
you can to InshaAllah succeed in completing reading the whole Qur'an in Ramadan.
[   ] Visit husband/friends/relatives for Allah's sake.
[   ] Share recipes and feed some fasting Muslims when you are able.
[   ] Keep seeking Islamic knowledge and 
remember all Muslims in your du'as/supplications.

May Allah the Most Merciful accept all our good deeds and fasting, May Allah the Most Forgiving forgive all our sins, and May Allah the Most Loving reunite us with His righteous friends in Jannatul Firdaus near Him and His noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam. Ameen.

Wasalaam~
