POEM: Notes On Marriage Proposals

In The Name Of Allah

The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

Lessons from my past to share for Allah’s sake,
Reasons why I rejected some proposals -
From one of them I disliked his baby-faced,
My ignorance back then was quite colossal,

He was to work in Madinah at that time,
I was at fault for judging him by his looks -
Thirteen years old then, needed loads of advice,
 Bulimic teen, rebellious, misunderstood.

Another proposal from a childhood friend,
Who similarly came to our house to meet,
Said no to his request which I now resent,
Simply because he was years younger than me.

My dear parents - Allah yarhamhum. Ameen.
Turned down another guy’s proposal for me,
In U.S. he worked while I stayed in Saudi,
Not seeming pious then, they thought he’d mislead.

At eighteen or so I made a big mistake
Of rejecting this man’s proposal wrongly.
To memorize the whole Qur’an he did aim,
From a good family, friends, Pakistani.

The silly reason why I denied again,
Was my assumption he was too soft and shy,
Blame if you like, I was ignorant back then,
I did many wrongs and couldn’t tell what’s right.

Later on Allah taught me about Islam,
Alhamdulillah through learning I was changed.
Value of marriage I loved to understand,
Noble traits like patience made me change my ways.

At twenty I was married to my cousin,
Our marriage though not perfect brought forth lessons.
At twenty-six or so I became first wife,
Loved my husband for Allah more than desires.

Tips regarding marriage proposals, to guide:
Pray the Istikhaarah prayer then decide.
To say yes or no it’s every woman’s right,
While recalling not to judge upon first sight.

Don’t do the wrongs I did. Do learn from mistakes.
On feeling attracted, choose the halal way,
Marry for Allah’s sake, complete your deen/faith,
Keep learning and applying Islam each day.

To parents or guardians of those who’ll marry:
Don’t expect perfection from anybody,
As you yourselves have flaws like everybody.
Don’t demand huge dowries. Make marriage easy.

In-laws don’t need to be from the same country,
Nor be the same socially / financially.
Beauty in diversity / large families.
Understand your kids, they’re the ones to marry.

Marriage is a blessed gift which Allah made
To unite souls who’ll exchange love lawfully,
A journey of loving lessons to God’s Way,
One of the means that strengthen spiritually.

POEM: On Lost Friendships And Those We Once Knew

In The Name Of Allah

The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

A poem on the topic of lost friendships,
Friends transformed to foes and those we used to know,
From lessons learned through experience, sharing tips
To remind others that they are not alone.

On facebook I’ve spotted lots of folks I knew
From school, places I’ve been to, when we were young.
With some so many adventures I went through,
Swapped jokes and laughter, played games, had loads of fun.

Numbers of them I’ve added but they refused,
Probably disliking my transformation,
The jealous among them hate what I now do,
While the rest have old memories forgotten.

Strangely I remember the good times we had,
Soccer, jogging, yoga, playing Truth or Dare,
Long telephone-calls and fancy teenage fads,
Bandanas we wore, styles we tried on our hair,

Exchanging VCDs, DVDs and mags,
And other stuff we used to do together.
At times I wonder what’s the point of those hugs
And love if they had no place in the future.

Then I’ve learned: People come and go, few remain.
Past friends are teachers who taught us memories.
Present names are tests. True friends are those who stay.
Rare worthy ones make it to your VIP.

As for online friends who ditched you, it’s okay.
Learn not to acquire their awful qualities.
Lost friends in this world can always be replaced.
Those who’ll like you share your goals, dislikes and needs.

So long as Allah loves you, you are all-right.
Make Allah your Best Friend, Qur’an by your side,
Books are neat companions, Tahajjud at night,
No need for evil friends who lie and backbite.

May Allah the Most Kind grant us His Friendship,
His Love and entry to Jannah Paradise.
Ameen. Gifts to find in all relationships:
Self-awareness, increased strength, a light that guides.

POEM: A Prayer In Laylatul Qadr

In The Name Of Allah

The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

Dear Allah the Most Kind, Most Just and Most Near,
Yet again I’m here, I call on You, in tears.
As I raise my hands facing down so humbly,
I pray: “Allahumma Innaka ‘Afuwwun Tuhebbul ‘afwa fa’fu ‘annee.”
Dear Allah Most Forgiving, forgive me please.

Dear Allah, I’m overwhelmed, stressed, tired and weak.
Your Mercy and Guidance O’ Allah I seek.
Allah, I miss my loved ones and family,
That I can’t take care of them all I’m sorry.
Please alleviate my struggles and worries.

I’m sorry I didn’t do much, Allah Dear,
Some bad traits of mine have not yet disappeared.
So beautify my character, guide me please,
Cause me to overcome obstacles with ease,
And make the Path to Jannah ever easy.

O’ Allah, for every moment, stay with me,
Enlighten through lessons and prophetic dreams.
Keep forgiving me when I slack frequently,
The Way to Your Love don’t allow me to leave.
Dear Allah, Only You I worship daily.

O’ Allah, please help Muslims worldwide in need,
Please fix our state as we bow to You Only.
With what You bestowed inspire us to be pleased,
That we see You in Paradise please decree,
Our good deeds accept, and our sins forgive, please.

Allahumma Innaka ‘Afuwwun Tuhebbul ‘afwa fa’fu ‘annee. Ameen.

POEM: Good Teachers v.s. Bad Teaching Style

In The Name Of Allah

The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

From teachers I've observed at schools I've been to,
And surveys of students regarding their likes,
With God's Will I've gathered nine differences
Between good teachers and bad teachers unwise:
_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
One: Bad teachers teach with insincerity,
Full of lies, they mainly work for the money.
Good teachers teach sincerely for Allah's sake,
To help and share their knowledge out of mercy.
_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
Two: Bad teachers are often late or absent,
Late to arrive in class, early to go home.
Good teachers are regularly on time, and
Don't mind completing their work in class alone.
_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
Three: Bad teachers get angry when asked questions -
Lessons unclear - for them 'one word is enough'.
Good teachers are ready to answer and help,
They love making things easy that which is tough.
_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
Four: Bad teachers lack good manners and kind words.
No words of encouragement - they hate to smile.
Good teachers are motherly, fatherly, nice -
Meetings with their students are fun and worthwhile.
_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
Five: Bad teachers treat parents as enemies -
They hate them in class, like they have things to hide.
Good teachers see parents as friends or teammates,
And they welcome guests to their class anytime.
_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
Six: Bad teachers are so good at backbiting -
They speak badly of both teachers and students.
Good Muslim teachers know that God is Watching,
Gossip shows one's ignorance - and imprudence.
_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
Seven: Bad teachers take their class for granted -
They don't correct mistakes, and don't grade on time.
Good teachers are always honest in grading,
And are proud, not jealous, when a student shines.
_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
Eight: Bad teachers refuse to lead or follow -
They're passive - or the school's rules they contradict.
Good teachers have initiative to do right -
Both leaders and followers, they're not too strict.
_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
Nine: Bad teachers don't take control of their class.
With their class so noisy, not all students learn.
Good teachers are able to quiet a class
Of many students, through being kind and firm.
_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
While each teacher has his/her own teaching style,
What's important is that knowledge is received.
Countries can thrive when all are educated
And are willing to help meet each other's needs.
_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
The Prophet Muhammad* is the best teacher -
Many lessons and good morals he had taught.
Teachers, know that teaching is a trust from God.
Thus, do your best, as it's the most noble job.
_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
May Allah the Most Kind accept our good deeds,
And reward us for teaching all that we know.
Ameen. So teach for Allah's sake, keep learning,
Educate, inspire, love - the Way to God show.

*SallAllahu alaihi wa sallam~

POEM: What Some Friends Have Taught Me Regarding Friendship

In The Name Of Allah

The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

Some lessons on friendship I've learned from old friends,

Friends of various types and personalities -

No lies as always, no guessing nor pretense,

Just taking some lessons from past memories.

From Saudi friends - at private and public schools,

I've learned that stereotyping is but a lie,

Friends can be found in both the cool and uncool,

Friendship develops when both parties are kind.

From friends who come from their country Pakistan,

I've learned how generosity forms liking,

To be close to someone help and understand,

Egoism may keep one from forgiving.

From Yemeni sisters whom I still recall,

I've learned that at times one must make the first move,

Accept the friendship of those who are sincere,

For strong bonds are seen between friends who are true.

From a special ex-friend who chose to stay far,

I've learned that when you love find a middle way,

Don't love or hate too much, some friends become foes,

And some strangers may transform to friends someday.

Now from some of the new friends recently made,

I've observed that Only Allah we can trust,

It's best to be with Him than befriend some fakes,

Who talk badly and clearly put on an act.

 While some may hate you out of mere jealousy,

There are those few who can be your best of friends,

Who insist on sharing, seeing you happy,

And who secretly pray for you now and then.

What makes some people click and get along quick,

From experience, is when both friends are alike,

In terms of shared likes, dislikes, similar goals,

Comfort with each other and distance from lies.

Regardless of how many friends you have made,

Friendship with Allah is what matters the most.

Some Muslims on earth may not be that famous,

Yet Allah and those in Heaven love them so.

May Allah Almighty make us among His righteous friends whom He will welcome in Jannatul Firdaus near Him and His beloved Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam. Ameen.

SONNET: Only Allah We Can Truly Trust

In the Name of Allah

The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

In truth Only God Allah we can trust,
God’s Love and Guidance are more than enough.
Keep your precious truths to yourself from fakes,
Who take your misdeeds when you they betray.
~.~
Though there are a few who may be trusted,
Be vigilant and wisely secretive.
This does not mean that we’re hiding something,
But cautiousness with whom to be loving.
~.~
Trust those who truthfully keep each promise,
And those who always maintain good habits.
Eschew those who stray because of their mood,
One moment they’re good, the next falsely true.
~.~
May Allah join us with the trustworthy
Worthy of Jannah next to God. Ameen.

God Allah is the Only One Whom we can trust and speak to freely~

May Allah the Most Merciful accept all our good deeds, forgive all our wrongdoings, answer our du'as and reunite us with our Muslim loved ones in the uppermost level of Heaven Jannatul Firdaus next to Him and His beloved Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu alaihi wa sallam. Allahumma Innaka 'Afuwwun Kareemun tuhibbul 'afwa fa'fu 'annaa. Ameen.

SONNET: Maintaining Family Relations

In The Name Of Allah

The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

Alhamdulillah from my father's side
Are cousins and aunties I can talk to.
We may not see each other day and night,
But in my du'as their names I include.
______________________
Now from the side of my dearest mother -
The relatives I'm in touch with are few.
Some live far but to connect don't bother.
Maternal cousin friends - not even two.
______________________
Though we may be in different cities,
Whether you're on my mom's or father's side,
I'd still say salaam, with you be friendly,
And if necessary you I'd invite.
______________________
For Allah maintain your family ties,
Don't choose to be with shaytan and his pride.

The Meaning Of Maintaining Family Ties
www.islamqa.info/en/4631

Family Problems In Islam
www.islamqa.info/en/75411

Allah the Almighty knows best.

Note: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam taught us that God Allah is pleased with those believers who maintain family ties while He is displeased with those who cut off family relations, especially out of being too arrogant to forgive or admit one's faults. Allah will Insha-Allah question that woman who neglected her aging mother and father, that man who deleted his relatives' contacts wanting to have nothing to do with them, those youth who refused to help their cousins or siblings when they were able to, and those members of a family who on coming across each other's paths look away and don't even exchange a simple yet rewarding salaam. Maintain family ties even if you try to visit each other once a month, send a friendly message or call them asking how they are doing. Insha-Allah you will be rewarded for trying your best to obey Allah's Command in taking care of your relatives out of mercy for Allah's sake.

May Allah the Most Merciful accept all our good deeds, forgive all our wrongdoings, answer our du'as and reunite us with our Muslim loved ones in Jannatul Firdaus next to Him and His beloved Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu alaihi wa sallam. Allahumma Innaka 'Afuwwun Kareemun tuhibbul 'afwa fa'fu 'annaa. Ameen.

POEM: The Art Of Dealing With Rumors And Gossip

In The Name Of Allah

The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

The art of dealing with rumors is easy.

When rumors are said about you with envy,

And some give you looks and others act funny,

And those you thought were friends begin to bully,

.:.

Take it easy, either walk away knowing

That such rumors are untrue; they're just lying -

These gossipers with their lies are time wasting.

Let them say what they think; your sins they're getting.

.:.

No need to hide yourself; a coward don't be.

Walk by them confidently; you're not guilty.

Petty insults should they bark, say smilingly:

"These lies prove you're jealous; you wish you were me."

.:.

Either that, or just ignore, don't waste your time,

Don't use your words on those who believe their lies.

They could be that stupid to not recognize

Their bad ethics prove they're insecure all right.

.:.

While the jealous spread rumors, to Allah speak,

Pray that they'll be taught lessons so they believe

You strive to be the best Muslim you can be,

Not for anyone but for Allah Only.

ISLAMIC NOTES: Sonnet On Why I Still Love My Only Spouse And 3 Tips On Maintaining Your Love For Someone

In The Name Of Allah

The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

To the man whom Allah gave me to guide,
The only guy I can take as my spouse:
From your wife your feelings you cannot hide,
When you're hurt, amused, worried, or aroused.

With Allah's Mercy I understand you,
I know some of your acts may be enforced,
So for Allah's sake I'll always love you,
Love's doors to forgive you I will not close.

God is our Witness to our marriage true.
Why I still love you Allah rightly knows;
He knows I understand all that you do.
On Judgment Day all truths will be exposed.

May Allah forgive you dear Nomayri,
And bless our marriage, and my loyalty.
Ameen.

Note:
Tips on how not to hate someone you're obliged to love:

1] Understand your relations with this person. Who are you to them and they to you? In what way are they of value? When it comes to marriage, one spouse should at least be in the upper hand of being willing to forgive while avoiding bad traits such as arrogance and ingratitude.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

2] If you want to love this person still, remember all the good times you've had together, their favors done to you, and appreciate the sweet memories of you two, or recall the many common likes you both share.
What pleasant qualities do they have which you can't help but admire? Can you count the times they made you laugh or smile?
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
3] You can love a Muslim for Allah's sake if the benefits of being close friends with them outweigh whatever mistake they may have done. Know that all actions will inshaAllah be rewarded according to their actual intentions and motive.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
May Allah the Most Merciful always forgive us, accept all our good deeds, guide us to all that He loves, and reunite us with our Muslim loved ones in
Jannatul Firdaus near Him and His noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam. Ameen.

SONNET: The Love Of A Loyal Wife

In The Name Of Allah

The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

The Love Of A Loyal Wife:

She married him purely for Allah's sake,

With sincere intentions to do her best

In being his gift who loves him always -

His wife and friend who wants all his needs met.

Even though he's imperfect she recalls

Every good thing and memory of him.

By his positive side she's still enthralled,

And of his human flaws she's forgiving.

If ever he neglects in any way,

She takes note of how Allah is Watching.

What keep her going are love, patience, faith

And her wish to meet Allah in Heaven.

A loyal wife is a gem worth keeping,

Her love remains though to some he's nothing.

Three lessons I've learned this Ramadan:

1. Anything done sincerely to please Allah becomes easier and blessed. 2. Sharing what you can share without expecting anything in return except for Allah's pleasure and rewards gives you a nice feeling that InshaAllah you have done another good deed that will InshaAllah be among many means of being welcome in Jannah Paradise. 3. Forgiving a Muslim for Allah's sake while understanding that Allah deals with all justly is better than being awkwardly aloof and arrogant. Allah hates those servants who behave arrogantly unworthily.

May Allah the Most Merciful accept all our good deeds and fasting, and may Allah the Most Forgiving forgive all our sins and reunite us with our Muslim loved ones in Jannatul Firdaus near Him and His noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu alaihi wa sallam. Allahumma Innaka 'Afuwwun tuhibbul 'afwa fa'fu 'annaa. Ameen.

SONNET: It's Alright If Allah Is Your Only Friend

In The Name Of Allah

The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

Funny how the jealous lie that I'm lone,

So ignorant are they for lies they squeak,

Don't they know that 'with Allah none's alone.'?

Or is my attention that which they seek?

I'd rather be with God than with His foes,

Be Allah's friend than befriend those He hates,

Feel "lonely" than be with fools who don't know

Their lousiness and fakeness they display.

I'd rather spend time with Allah alone

Than waste a minute on the unworthy,

Who have no noble qualities to own

But sadly envy while being nosy.

Avoid those who'll get you into trouble.

Side with Allah and His allies truthful.

Wasalaam~

Mariam M. <3 Nomayri AbdulWahab

With genuine friends whom Allah loves: Gift them with your time, love, trust, tips and loyalty. Grant them your support. Share with them your joys which make you happy. Sincerely pray for them in your du'as regularly. 

With fakes: Obvious avoidance or similar fakery. 

With bullies and jealous folks who show enmity: 

1] Guide them through reminders or transform them positively by your good manners. 2] Show no interest. 3] Fair and reasonable superiority.  

Every Muslim has a right to choose who to be close friends with and who to avoid. A lot can be known about you by the company you keep. While it's a good thing to be friendly in general, it's always important to reserve your trust, loyalty and secrets for those who are likewise loyal to Allah Almighty. Thus, select righteous friends who can help guide you to Allah's Way with them instead of being misguided by a bunch of sinners or hypocrites who lose when they don't want to befriend you and who only gain your sins each time they talk badly about you.

Note that even if a Muslim stays anonymous in this world or doesn't have the same millions of fans as some celebrities do, that Muslim, through his/her good deeds and sincerity, may be well-known in the Heavens and loved by God Allah as well as His Angels. May Allah the Most Merciful accept all our good deeds, forgive all our mistakes and join us with His friends whom He loves in Jannatul Firdaus near Him and His beloved Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam. Ameen.

SONNET: My Only Husband May Marry Up To Four And It's Okay

In The Name Of Allah
The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

Allahu A'lam. In a world where truth
Is rarely found and lies are prominent,
Where the sincere and truthful are but few,
I'm pleased with you as my spouse, dear husband.

Though with the fakes I mirror their bad traits
Or at times I avoid them when it's best,
I choose to remain loyal night and day,
With loyalty far beyond east and west.

No need to prove that you love me, I know
And feel the language of your tears and thoughts,
Through dreams and memories your love is shown,
You're my only spouse whom I oft think of.

Wed third or fourth, with Allah's Will I pray
 To meet Allah smiling near Heaven's gates.

May Allah the Most Merciful forgive all our sins, accept all our good deeds, answer all our good du'as and reunite us with our Muslim loved ones in Jannatul Firdaus near Him and His noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam. Ameen.

Each wife's love is unique yet real and strong,
Each one loving, faithful and forgiving,
Longing to have Heaven where they belong,
In Allah Almighty truly trusting.

"Allah is the One Whom I live to please,
Don't need fellow servants to validate,
Forget false remarks of those who envy,
Ignore shaytan and what his puppets say."

Each wife blessed with loyalty understands
Her special role, gifts, and her only man.

Among the best treasures a wife gives her husband besides her faith, Islamic knowledge and wisdom, is her loyalty
and loving him for Allah's sake unconditionally :)

L: Love truly, unconditionally for Allah's sake.

O: Overlook and forgive your lover's flaws and mistakes.

Y: You are each other's gifts, lessons, map and loving light.

A: Appreciate both speech and silence, trust day and night.

L: Leave fakes and liars, their loud jealousy recognize.

May Allah Almighty make us among His righteous friends whom He will welcome in Jannatul Firdaus near Him and His beloved Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam. Ameen.

POEM: What If

In The Name Of Allah
The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

www.zawaj.com/askbilqis/dua-in-islam

SubhanAllah wa Bihamdih SubhanAllah Al-'Atheem.
Many things that took place, or passed by, or those that could have been.
Only God Allah Almighty knows both the seen and unseen.
Allah knows what His servants go through. Allah is All-Knowing.

What if Dad (Allah Yarhamhu and dear Mom) was here today,
And he remarried, and that decision with Mom is okay?
If we had a stepmom, would our ties with her come with dismay,
Or would we be best friends so we'd go out and chat night and day?

Perhaps the love between my dearest parents was so special.
Allah decreed that Dad be wed to only one wife loyal.
May Allah the Most Merciful forgive them and grant mercy,
And May He join me with His friends He'll meet smilingly. Ameen.

What if my brothers had second wives or married up to four,
If their wives were my age and were close for same things we adored?
Perhaps Allah is saving me from unwanted daily speech,
While helping me understand all sorts of personalities.

What if I could write and speak in all languages fluently,
So not one friend would find it hard to communicate with me?
What if I married "Mr. Right" whose good traits were too many,
How much would my unconditional love and loyalty be?

Only God Allah knows the wisdom in every life story,
And Only He the Most Wise knows what is best for you and me.
Whether I update again or not after this blog entry,
It's best that most words are kept for oneself and Allah Only.

Some new lessons I'd like to share which I have learned recently:
Avoid sinners and those who show signs that they're untrustworthy.
In silence is inner peace, more talks with Allah Almighty,
And praying that Allah lets us meet in Heaven smilingly. (Ameen.)

May Allah Almighty make us among His righteous friends whom He will welcome in Jannatul Firdaus near Him and His beloved Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam. Ameen.

SONNET: Because Of Allah's Gift She Loves Him

In The Name Of Allah

The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

Allah Almighty knows best.

Among the best joys of a man is the righteous Muslim wife:

www.islamqa.info/en/171295

When some are amazed by how this wife loves,

By how she loves him though he's wed to three -

That he's her trust from Allah is enough

To let her love unconditionally.

She loves him too because she knows truly

What her husband goes through and knows his flaws.

Her loving him is both gift and duty,

Even though he is not admired by all.

Because of Allah's gifts - faith and knowledge,

This righteous friend still remains as his wife -

Away from being jealous and selfish,

Always loyal, missing him day and night.

She cares not about what onlookers say,

And knows her love is just for Allah's sake.

www.Quran.mu/the-righteous-wife.html

May Allah the Most Merciful forgive us always, accept all our good deeds, and join us with His righteous friends in Jannatul Firdaus near Him and His noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam. Ameen <3

To be righteous is to be close to Allah Almighty. To be close to Allah is to know more about Him, to love him truly, worship Him willingly, obey Him faithfully and love all those whom He loves especially His beloved Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam, who was sent to all as a mercy. While continuously learning about Islam, avoid what the ignorant folks say about those whom you love especially when they lie about Allah, His Prophets, your loved ones and fellow believers. Remember it's better to spend quality time with Allah than on certain social networking sites where some mistreat you online out of genuine envy.

Who is the rightoeus Muslim wife? She is that wife who...

Realizes your worth and remembers

Includes you in her du'as always

Gives and shows love for Allah's sake

Helps you especially in terms of faith

Talks to you with truth and wisdom

Eagerly likes to see you smile

Overestimates your acts of goodness

Understands your flaws and forgives

Shares her joys and loves you in a special way

When supplicating to Allah include all Muslims in your du'as :)

Wasalaam~
