SONNET: Avoid Making Fun Of Others Out Of Jealousy

In The Name Of Allah
The Most Gracious The Most Merciful


Allah the Almighty commanded us
To avoid teasing and vain mockery.
As Allah's servants, don't think you're the best,
Don't deny your flaws and deficiencies.

Loathsome it is to name-call and misjudge,
To obnoxiously make fun of others.
Jealous are those who ridicule with grudge.
Sure of themselves - who lift one another.

 Don't make fun of some for being plus-size,
For seeming poor, unkempt, weird or just plain -
Your claims may haunt you and you'll realize
That they're better than you in myriad ways.

Allah and His Angels - we're on their side,
With God we mock satan's envious lies.

3 Facts About Making Fun Of People:
1. Making fun of others is childish and is a bad habit of the insecure or jealous.
2. Don't ridicule some people for something they can't change like how Allah created them.
Never misjudge without knowing their whole story. Otherwise you're the ignorant one who was brought up despicably by uneducated folks who were that inadequate at teaching you good manners.
3. What you make fun of, as well as your wrongdoings, may Insha-Allah find their way back to you if your teasing was uncalled-for or unjust, in this world and/or on Judgment Day.

Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam advised us saying, “Do not express malicious joy towards a Muslim brother or sister's misfortune, for Allah may have mercy on him/her and you may be stricken by the very thing you made fun of.”
(Narrated by Al-Tirmidhi)

POEM: Before You Judge Others, Judge Yourself.

In The Name Of Allah
The Most Gracious The Most Merciful


That sister's friendliness does not mean 'flirting',
Nor does her silence mean she's into something.
Don't think she's this and that until there's clear proof.
Before you judge some, put yourself in their shoes.

That man's long beard does not mean he's so righteous
If he prays when he's seen and is impious.
Before you judge, know - and put things in their place.
Don't be quick to trust nor suspect someone's ways.

Who are you to claim that their marriage lacks love?
She could be in his thoughts he always thinks of,
Unable to express himself through sweetness,
While she's forgiving of his flaws and weakness.

Don't think she's arrogant when she walks by you,
She may not have heard, or she had lots to do.
Those brothers without beards - don't think they don't pray.
Don't make strangers' attitudes affect your day.

When one seems aloof, they're thinking or just shy.
If some friends did not visit in a long while,
Grant excuse - time or transport they could not find.
Careful when you judge, the truthful don't belie.

Only Allah can judge, He sees everything.
Every motive and notion is known to Him.
Should you judge for good reason, know all the facts.
Before you criticize, admit what you lack.

May Allah the All-Knowing forgive our sins,
Our neglect, our delays, all our wrongdoings,
May Allah replace our mistakes with good deeds,
With right belief and our trust in Him. Ameen.

PICTURES: Simple Eid Gift Ideas || POEM: Ramadan Lessons

In The Name Of Allah
The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

Some Ideas For 
Simple Eid Packs Of Sweets
Note: For Allah's sake 
Avoid drawing animates/anime and realistic images of beings as figure making is not allowed in Islam. Only Allah is Al-Khaliq Who creates what He Wills.

POEM: What Really Matters (Ramadan Lessons)
===========================
In Ramadan if you could not read the whole Qur'an,
At least you've tried your best reciting once in a while.
If there was that time you missed Suhoor or woke up late,
At least you fasted and you prayed despite your desires.

If you could not attend a special Iftaar event,
At least you fasted while Allah's Angels pray for you.
If you wish to do charity but cannot do so,
You still earn reward for intentions sincere and true.

If you are a sister who has excuse not to fast,
At least you earn reward by giving the fasting food.
If you're in your period and can't pray the Eid prayers,
For attending the Eid khutbahs Allah will bless you.

If you wish to do Da'wah but may not have the means,
Maintain your good manners, doing Da'wah through actions.
If you long to help those needy Muslims but you can't,
With Allah's Will you can affect through supplications.

If in your area you can't find a true righteous friend,
Allah, His Angels, and friends in Heaven await you.
If you seldom get responses on a post/update,
Recall good deeds are for Allah Who Will reward you.

If when some don't take your advice when you enjoin right,
At least you did what you could and corrected the wrong.
If you're the only female in niqaab or hijaab,
At least you know Allah loves you and your faith stays strong.

If some people you know are aloof or won't forgive,
At least you're not the arrogant one who's led astray.
Please Only God Allah. Don't mind what His servants say.
What really matters: Allah loves you, you've tried your best,
And for your Islam Jannah is your eternal place.

Allah the Almighty knows best.

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: Allahumma Innaka 'Afuwwun Tuhebbul 'Afwa Fa'fu 'Anna

In The Name Of Allah
The Most Gracious The Most Merciful


Allahumma Innaka 'Afuwwun Tuhebbul 'Afwa Fa'fu 'Annee.
O' Allah You are the Most Forgiving,
You love forgiveness, so forgive me please.

Dear Allah forgive my flaws and mistakes,
The sins I may have done by night or day,
Wrongdoings done unintentionally,
Stubbornly, coerced or unknowingly.

Forgive me dear Allah for good deeds missed,
And sins done in secret which You've witnessed,
Forgive those actions done reluctantly,
And bad thoughts or feelings felt wrongfully.

Forgive o' Allah You love to pardon,
Forgive all my sins I've long abandoned,
Forgive my time spent on the unworthy,
And any neglect of any duty.

I'm sorry Allah for chances I lost,
Wrong choices made, vile ideas thought of,
Offending Your servants distastefully,
Sorry for complaints brought forth needlessly.

O' Allah in Ramadan and always
I pray for Your Forgiveness night and day,
Accept all my good deeds, answer my pleas,
And make me of those You'll meet smilingly.

Allahumma Innaka 'Afuwwun Tuhebbul 'Afwa Fa'fu 'Annee.
O' Allah You are the Most Forgiving,
You love forgiveness, so forgive me please.
Ameen.

Good deeds you can do even after Ramadan:
Regularly fasting every other day Sunnah fasts especially on Mondays or Thursdays, reading and reciting from the Noble Qur'an everyday, praying more Sunnahs like Salat Ad-Duha in the forenoon and Qiyam Al-Layl Tahajjud past midnight, frequently communicating with Allah through saying some Adhkaar and your sincere du'as, maintaining good Islamic manners while abstaining from evil deeds and foul speech or unnecessary talking, avoiding sins and that which is not really beneficial, sharing some food from time to time with loved ones and neighbours, enjoying seeking Islamic knowledge and enjoining right and forbidding wrong whenever possible all for Allah's sake :)

SONNET: The Science Of Loving Your Husband

In The Name Of Allah
The Most Gracious The Most Merciful


Love your husband for Allah sincerely,
And take this duty as his wife with love -
What you like about him Allah can see, 
He's your soul mate you oft think and dream of.

You know him like the name God chose for you,
You sense the feelings at times he conceals,
You understand his speech, silence, each move,
And the love between you stays truly real.

Because you love him, to you he appeals -
His jokes make you laugh and joys you can share -
With God Allah you've signed a noble deal
To stay loyal to your man far and near.

Love for Allah's sake invites bliss and peace,
While pretentious love gives up easily.

What may cause you to love someone?
You may love someone because they are family or it is your job to love them for Allah only, when in some ways you fill each other's gaps in life or sometimes help fulfil one another's needs, or when you both understand each other so well because of many shared experiences and similarities, or you love them still because you appreciate their good deeds, favours and sweet memories.

Allah the Almighty knows best.

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.

ISLAMIC NOTES: Sharing Some Reminders Learned In Ramadan

In The Name Of Allah
The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

Some Reminders In The Noble Month Of Ramadan

R:
Race with one another in doing good deeds,
Do good to please Allah with sincerity.
These lead to Heaven: faith, morals, right belief.

A:
Analyse yourself before you will be asked.
Good intentions for Allah simplify tasks.
Allah is always near, hearing your du'as. 

M:
Manage time wisely, focusing on Allah.
Love and strive to be like dear RasulAllah (SallAllahu alaihi wa sallam).
Wherever you are adhere to his Sunnah.

A:
Amend and reform with sincere repentance.
Share what you can give when you're in abundance.
Talk with wisdom and with wisdom choose silence.

D:
Dreams are nothing without motive and actions.
Don't mind the rude and those full of assumptions,
They know with resentment you're better than them.

A:
Apologize to Allah and to His slaves,
Do what you can do before comes Judgement Day.
The humble accept the Truth and find God's Way.

N:
Never underestimate Allah's Mercy,
The power of du'a and speech said rightly.
Jannah is our true home of eternal ease.

Some Good deeds menstruating sisters can still do in Ramadan: say your du'as and have sincere talks with Allah Who will InshaAllah answer a Muslim's du'a in a way that He knows is best, attend Islamic seminars or seek beneficial knowledge through reading or watching Islamic videos and lectures, share useful links to online Islamic articles or websites, help in cooking or feed fasting Muslims, babysit kids whose parents are praying especially in Taraweeh and Tahajjud prayers, give old clothes and other surplus things to those who may need them, learn more about Arabic so you understand the Glorious Qur'an more and read books on tafseer or Ahadith sayings of the Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam and continue reading from the Noble Qur'an with gloves on to complete reading the whole Qur'an in Ramadan at least once for Allah's sake.

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. Allahumma Innaka 'Afuwun tuhhebul 'afwa fa'fu 'annaa. 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.
