💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
📜 Question: What advice can you give to every Muslimah so she can stay calm and chill like you if ever her husband expresses his willingness to remarry, or what's your secret to not feeling bothered at all when you discovered that you became your husband's first wife?
💚Answer: Allah the Almighty knows best.
1💟 Always remember that the actual and main goal of our life isn't to construct a seemingly "flawless" relationship with any human being but to sincerely strive to please and worship only our Creator and True God Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala. We're not here on earth to pamper our desires and keep our ego satisfied but we were created by Allah the Almighty to worship just Him Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala by trying our best to obey His Commands, avoid what He prohibited, and patiently accept what He legislated and permitted including allowing responsible and capable Muslim men to be married to up to four wives. As Allah's servants, we try our utmost to comply with His Orders and legislations instead of arrogantly and openly defying them.
2💟 Adamantly believe that Allah the Most Wise will not grant you tests which your soul can't withstand. Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala precisely knows the level of your faith/Imaan and when He examines you with certain situations it is because He Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala can see that you have the ability to actually pass that test if you cleverly utilize the correct tools in responding wisely.
So if ever you discover that your husband remarried without informing you yet directly, do well in such examination by training yourself to patiently accept Allah's Qadr/Decree.
Acknowledge the fact that while you can't control your husband's actions 24/7 nor ensure that he never "cheats", you have absolute freewill concerning the way you react when you find him behaving strangely or questionably. Stay grateful Alhamdulillah and be glad that he's not guilty of adultery, while humbly accepting the truth that he has every right, as an adult Muslim male who's financially stable, to be married to up to four wives.
3💟 Confidently know that your success in this world and the next doesn't entirely depend on what your husband does and chooses to do. You can still be from those believers whom Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala loves even if your husband decides to have another wife. You can still persist in journeying towards Jannah Paradise even if your husband lawfully loves another woman. Your husband still loves you for Allah's sake and genuinely cares about you even if he is blessed with two, three or four wives. The kind of marriage which Allah the Most Loving decreed for you, whether it's monogamous or polygynous, does not ultimately define your value as a Muslimah. Your worth may be in how much effort you put in maintaining a strong connection with Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala, regardless if you're single, married or one of your husband's wives.
4💟 It is better to be one of your husband's patient and loyal wives than to be a divorcee who feels awfully remorseful whenever she observes how other wives in polygynous marriages have a lot more determination than her while she couldn't fully empathize with the former spouse.
5💟 Admit that our archenemy shaytan and his puppets are the ones who feel smug whenever they assume they've succeeded in disuniting Muslims and destroying Muslim families. Don't allow the delusional devils to easily spoil the beautiful connection which Allah the Most Merciful destined for you. Whenever your husband upsets or disappoints you, always remind yourself that he isn't an infallible robot and even androids or gadgets have their own defects. Even if you left him and remarried another guy, that new spouse would also be filled with loads of imperfections. If you ditched husband number two, husband number three and four and so on similarly have their own shortcomings. Why discard crumpled paper only to collect other bits of crumpled paper?
It is better and less problematic to be contented with one imperfect husband than to leave him for another flawed substitute while occasionally finding yourself missing the first husband.
It is better and more rewarding, in my opinion, for a Muslim man to be gratefully married to four wives with many children who can be productive assets
Inn-sha-Allah to the Muslim Ummah than for him to remain with a wife who can't really conceive or for him to have one wife while combating the urge to commit adultery.
If you truly love your husband for Allah's sake, you'd want him to be happy by way of lawful means rather than annoyingly attaching yourself to him and preventing him from pursuing what Allah the Most Kind allowed him to do, namely to have more than one wife.
~•~
📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "A woman is married for four things: Her wealth, her family status, her beauty, and her religion. So you should marry the religious woman otherwise you will be a loser."

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 My decision to completely stop being addicted to music didn't happen overnight. It was a long journey consisting of periodical breaks or episodes of deciding to quit listening to songs, then returning to music addiction, and then back to willingness to do Tawbah (repentance), from my teenage years until my late twenties.
As a former music addict, I remember listening to a wide variety of songs in my portable CD player frequently while studying, while working on my school projects and assignments, while doing aerobic exercise, and even before sleeping. I also tuned in to a number of radio stations to listen to the latest hits, and on some occasions I sent letters via email or fax machine to the DJ cheesily requesting certain songs to be "dedicated" to all the students of Middle East International School back then.
AstaghfurAllah Al-'Atheem.
Savage Garden, Evanescence, Avril Lavigne, Celine Dion, Westlife, Shania Twain, P!nk (Alecia Beth Moore), Backstreet Boys (BSB), A-Teens, M2M, Eminem, Britney Spears, and the Spice Girls were some of the "artists", along with other Arab singers, whose songs I used to ignorantly listen to. Alhamdulillah I stopped listening to music when Allah the Almighty guided me through the consistent warnings and advice of my dear parents (Allah yarhamhuma. Ameen.) against such wrongdoing which a lot of people take lightly.
Afterwards I decided to replace them with so-called "anasheed", "nasheeds" or "Islamic songs", wrongly assuming that listening to them would strengthen my faith/Imaan when it actually did the opposite. Instead of calming my heart by listening to Allah's Magnificent Words in the Noble Qur'an regularly, there I was pretentiously chanting "nasheed" lyrics and guiltily staring at the good looks of "nasheed artists" such as Sami Yusuf, Native Deen, Maher Zain, Deen Squad, and Saif / Safe Adam while watching "nasheed video clips". Watching "nasheed videos" felt almost similar to watching music vids on MTV and other channels, but with a slightly different flavor. Imagine a divorcee who's dealing with severe depression trying to slit his wrists and arms with a razor blade. Instead of utilizing the razor blade, he uses the sharp edges of a broken piece of glass to cut himself. While both cutting tools look dissimilar outwardly, their disastrous effects are the same. Being addicted to music is still as sinful as obsessively listening to so-called "anasheed", even if your niyyah/intention is to gather sufficient energy to worship Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala.
📝 Some tips to permanently stop music addiction, for Allah's sake:
1] Understand the real reasons why dancing and listening to music aren't allowed. Allah the Most Wise created your body so you can use it for praying to Him, not to dance, and your ears are meant for listening to the Adhaan, Qur'an recitations, and beneficial Islamic lectures, not for absorbing evil speech such as lies, gossip, and distracting songs.
2] Read more articles or listen to Islamic talks regarding the prohibition of listening to music.
3] Be inspired by the true stories of Muslims who willingly gave up their harmful addiction to music.
4] When commuting with a taxi or any vehicle, be confident enough to request the driver to switch off the radio if music is being played. The more often you command others to stop listening to music, the more you're trained to dislike music, thereby motivating yourself to practice what you preach since you recall how awful it is to act like a hypocrite.
5] Constantly ask Allah the Most Kind to keep you steadfast, as you strive to increase your good deeds to compensate for your past sins.
Pray that Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala takes your soul while you're in a noble state, mentioning His Name, saying Dhikr, or after having performed wudhu/ablution, instead of while listening to musical instruments and nonsensical songs.

I remember asking one female Muslim revert from Cagayan de Oro about her educational background and where she studied Islam so she probably believes she's qualified enough to deliver lectures in public and I decided to stop following her posts and listening to her lectures when she didn't give a clear response regarding where she learned about Islam.
There are a lot of more knowledgeable and reliable Muslim male scholars and trustworthy students of authentic knowledge whose lectures we can benefit from online and face to face at some Masaajid.
A female delivering lectures to females only to exchange valuable Islamic reminders so their faith Imaan level can
Inn-sha-Allah increase could be okay but for her to seem like a female version of another so-called "celebrity sheikh" with photos of herself (even if she's wearing half or full niqab) on numerous advertisements for her lectures while she never completed taking formal classes at any Islamic institute or online Islamic classes, then there's something questionable about that.
There's a massive difference between someone occasionally sharing important Islamic reminders online to do Da'wah for Allah's sake instead of selfishly concealing their knowledge granted by Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala and somebody who regularly gives public speeches then conducting a questions and answers session after their lecture while they haven't attended any actual Islamic classes (yet) apart from self-study or reading a few Islamic articles. The first person almost resembles an individual sometimes sharing health tips on social media to remind themselves and share awareness, while the latter acts like an overconfident fitness coach delivering lectures and setting up certain workshops based on mere experience or research while there are plenty of trained professionals who carry out their tasks more effectively than most novices can.
May Allah the Most Merciful forgive all our sins, mistakes and misinformation, and may Allah the Most Kind grant us more guidance to the best deeds which He and His noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam love. Ameen.

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
📝 Five things to avoid doing towards insecure or inwardly unhappy individuals who try to bully you to distract themselves from their miseries (Do not do these to sad bullies, as much as possible):
1] Do not instruct or dare them to take their own lives. Do not do something so terrible that could cause them to feel suicidal nor say awful things to them such as "Obnoxious people like you are from the reasons why earth is currently an unpleasant place to live on. Why not do at least one productive act in your lifetime and kill yourself?" or "the entire universe would be at peace if you didn't exist. Your negative presence and despicable personality are absolutely meaningless. Kill yourself, please."
Suicide and murder are major sins which we Muslims should avoid for Allah's sake. Only Allah the Almighty has every right to end the life of His servants anytime He chooses.
2] Do not invent obvious lies against those bullies, even if they have lied about you several times. Spreading untruths or false rumors could eventually result in trouble, if not sooner or later in this world then perhaps in the next life. Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala knows best.
❎ For example: If you say something like "Alicia Weirdoshaun only said those nasty nonsense as a strange coping mechanism to deal with being frequently neglected by both of her financially struggling parents who never went to high school, and she intensely despises how they're both jobless.", one or both of her parents may feel bitter towards you and some kind of feud occurs which could have been avoided.
3] Do not alter anything about yourself to appear "likeable" or "valuable" to those self-loathing bullies. Once you discover that a group of miserable trolls and clowns actually dislike you, relentlessly unfriend them and gladly disconnect from them for Allah's sake online and offline. True happiness can't be achieved by building feeble connections with fakes, pretenders and snakes. If most or all of the members of a childish clique act like useless twigs and/or dangerous leeches, unapologetically walk away.
4] Do not copy them in their tomfoolery and absurdity. Do not turn into a bully nor become more tyrannical or troublesome than them, unless you're willing to face the bad consequences of misbehaving and confirming you're not contented with who you are.
A confused person acting disrespectful towards you, indicating their dissatisfaction with their insecurities or distressful conditions, isn't an invitation to participate in their lousy pity-party. Be a lot better than them by ignoring their nonsensical insults, and differ from their idiocy.
5] Do not stalk any of their social media posts nor thoroughly analyze any of their comments. Since those bullies have already proven to you that they can no longer be trusted, confidently refrain from giving weight to any of their unreliable statements and messages. Regard them as complete strangers whom you aren't interested in connecting with, almost in the same way you completely bypass products at grocery stores which you believe aren't essential or worthwhile for you.
✅ Suggested ways to deal with bullies:
1] Inform trusted loved ones and/or older adults about the bullying, without letting the bullies know.
2] Say lots of Adhkaar and Du'a. Continue asking for guidance and help from Allah the Most Powerful while maintaining strong connection with Him Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala.
3] Avoid befriending toxic individuals as much as possible and refuse to be negatively affected by their irrational acts.

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
🗒️ Three reasons why most people can't be trusted, which is why Allah the Almighty is the Only One Whom we can truly trust:
1] Most people, when insecure or discontented with Allah's Qadr / Destiny, tend to envy others' accomplishments, joys and blessings. A person who feels jealous of you in any way can never be relied on because they don't want you to succeed in life or surpass them at something which they themselves are trying to attain.
2] Most humans have the potential to be greedy opportunists and selfish narcissists. You can never rely on somebody who cares more about their ego, desires and pride than people's needs and rights. Don't be surprised if an acquaintance breaks a promise, tells lies or disappoints you one day if they assume that doing so is advantageous to them in the long run.
3] All human beings occasionally forget and make mistakes. The less profitable you appear to certain individuals, the more likely they are to take you for granted. Lower your expectations when it comes to dealing with those who have proven to be dishonest so you don't easily get disappointed.
✅ Five qualities of trustworthy souls and they are very few:
1] It is obvious that they strive to maintain Taqwa while they fear only Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala.
2] They try their best to be careful with their words, and if ever they said or did anything which upset someone, they have the courage to sincerely apologize for their wrongs.
3] When borrowing money and items from others, they make sure that they return what they borrowed in their proper condition and as punctually as they can.
4] Even if they're oftentimes in a bad mood, they strive to maintain good character, answering salaams responsibly, meeting people with a cheerful demeanor, and refraining from acting unfairly despite how they feel.
5] They aim to do good only to please Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala, not for deceitful motives and personal gain. They're not the kind of people who overreact and sulk when you don't reciprocate their kindness immediately.

📖 Abdullah Ibn Mas'ud RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "You must be truthful. Verily, truthfulness leads to righteousness and righteousness leads to Paradise. A man continues to be truthful and encourages honesty until he is recorded with Allah as a truthful person. And beware of falsehood. Verily, falsehood leads to wickedness and wickedness leads to the Hellfire. A man continues to tell lies and encourages falsehood until he is recorded with Allah as a liar."

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Even if a baby cried for a bottle of milk,
You wouldn't grant them their request if you clearly felt
The drink is still too hot and it's not drinkable yet,
So they'd have to wait for the milk's temperature to drop,
As giving it too soon can hurt the infant a lot.
~•~
No matter how loud a toddler weeps for a cactus,
You'd keep the spiky plant away so they're protected.
You'd give them an item different from what they asked,
A toy that's softer and safer for them to play with.
Your act of preventing is because of care and love.
~•~
Regardless of how loudly your son cries day and night,
Begging you for a car when he's still too young to drive,
You wouldn't give in to his earnest pleas and desires
Until he's older and he's no longer a small child.
You provide his wants not when he likes but when it's wise.
~•~
When saying Du'a and asking Allah for our needs,
We need to be patient, have the strength to wait humbly,
Trust in Allah's Might to respond only when He sees
That what we beg for won't bring harm to our well-being,
Or He'll bestow if it's absolute necessity.
~•~
In Ramadan and in every instant you're alive,
To cry to Allah while saying Du'as don't be shy.
Don't guess you were unheard if your wish didn't arrive,
As Allah hears everyone well and He the Most Wise
Answers at the best time and has favors more worthwhile.
~•~
📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Every one of you will have his supplications answered, as long as he is not impatient and says: 'I have supplicated but I was not answered.'"
In another narration, the Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "The servant will continue to have his supplications answered as long as he does not ask for sin or cutting family ties and he is not impatient."

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
🗒️ So what if "no one cares", "no one's willing to listen",
Or for some time you haven't received invitations,
Or questions from acquaintances on how you're doing...
You weren't born to be earth's center of attention.
~•~
Allah the Almighty, our God and Only True King,
Designed us to worship, serve and strive to please just Him.
We weren't made to collect fans from among humans
And our worth isn't based on the number of our friends.
Solitude's a blessing when you're distanced from nonsense.
~•~
Most souls are prone to envy, most are unconfident,
Most find enjoyment in lies and lousy backbiting,
Therefore don't feel surprised if you witness maltreatment
And rudeness from strangers who are distressed from within.
Sorrow or loathing themselves may prompt their insolence.
~•~
You don't need people's love to ensure that your feelings
Are valid, no need for them to grant you assurance,
And there's no need to be told by all human beings
"I understand", "I'm with you", "I care", "I'm listening",
When Allah is with us more than twenty-four-seven.
~•~
Allah the Most Loving hears us each day and evening,
And any "secret" we conceal remain safe with him.
So what if people don't care or won't pause to listen.
Sincere actions matter more than the crowd's acceptance.
Connect with Allah for peace, don't cling to His servants.
~•~

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Having good character, being "mabait" or kind,
Doesn't mean giving freebies to people all the time.
Some may be so shy, unable to fight for their rights,
Yet when they're among close friends, they reveal their bad side
When they tell lies, make fun of people's flaws and backbite.
~•~
Three signs of Muslims who are blessed with good character,
Genuine manners maintained for Allah, with Sabr:
One: They intensely hate backbiting and gossipers,
Aware that Allah always hears each word we utter,
And laughing at others' defects indicates kibr.
~•~
Two: They forgive and move on, don't waste time on revenge.
They don't hatefully stalk profiles of their opponents,
Don't insist on winning each debate and argument,
And offline, if you know them, they're primarily silent,
Occupied with Du'a, Adhkaar, and self-reflection.
~•~
Three: They try their best to treat Allah's servants fairly.
Cheerful around salespeople, janitors, and colleagues,
Being the first to greet with the salaam frequently,
And not treating low-income workers unpleasantly,
They strive to apply proper ethics consistently.
~•~
You've no right to describe somebody as "rude" or "mean"
If you're not well acquainted, if you converse rarely,
And if you can't understand the whys behind their deeds.
Good character is to be nice without being weak,
Dealing with Allah's slaves with wise justice and mercy.
~•~

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 As I journey towards Jannah, being Allah's slave,
Striving to earn rewards and do good for Allah's sake,
I wish to tell each soul whom I've met along the way:
"Forgive my mistakes and hurtful words I used to say.
~•~
I'm sorry for not enough time spent back in the days,
Sorry to those with whom I couldn't fully acquaint,
Sorry if I made you feel ignored, or displayed hate,
And sorry if any of my actions brought dismay.
~•~
I'm sorry if ‘sorry’ is not enough to erase
Emotional wounds I may have caused when not awake,
Unaware of the outcomes of the options I'd take,
Or when I failed to fight my nafs in challenging states.
~•~
Recall I'm human like you; we're not perfect always.
At times I slip, fall, misconstrue, wrongfully explain
And misjudge when I go through a brief decrease in faith,
Yet return to my senses when I find Allah's Way.
~•~
When I am gone, and when Allah takes my soul away,
I hope you forget my errors and you kindly pray
That I'm forgiven and from the grave's torment I'm saved,
And you mention me in Du'as nearly night and day.
~•~
When I've disappeared as a memory to replay,
I pray the memories make your Imaan escalate,
That instead of wailing, your patience level is raised,
And you strive for Allah as your Taqwa you upgrade.
~•~
Don't obsess over me. Remember we're Allah's slaves,
Created to serve Allah. Life's a test, not a game.
Do your best and pray we meet again by Jannah's Gates,
To reunite and together see Allah's Grand Face."
~•~
📖 Ibn ‘Umar RadhiAllahu ‘anhuma from his father that the noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam said, "The deceased is punished in his grave for the wailing done over him." (Refrain from wailing or excessively crying over those who've returned to Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala.)
Reference: Sahih Al-Bukhari 1292
In-book reference: Book 23, Hadith 51
USC-MSA web (English) reference: Vol. 2, Book 23, Hadith 379
📖 Anas Ibn Malik RadhiAllahu ‘anhu narrated: ‘We entered the house of Abu Sayf along with the Messenger of Allah SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam who was the husband of Ibrahim’s wet-nurse, upon him be peace. The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam took hold of Ibrahim, kissed him, and smelled him. Then, we entered after that as Ibrahim was breathing his last breaths. It made the eyes of the Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam shed tears. Abdur Rahman Ibn Awf RadhiAllahu ‘anhu said, “Even you, O Messenger of Allah?” The Prophet SallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam said, “O Ibn Awf, this is mercy.” Then, the Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam wept some more and he said, "Verily, the eyes shed tears and the heart is grieved, but we will not say anything except what is pleasing to our Rabb Allah. We are saddened by your departure, O Ibrahim."

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
🗒️ Question: If ever you've become widowed and received a marriage proposal some time after the completion of your 'iddah (waiting period of four months and ten days) what are some qualities you'd require for a Muslim man to have so you'd be willing to accept his marriage proposal?
📝 Answer: Allah the Almighty knows best. I can't imagine myself remarrying but if Allah the Most Wise decreed that I become a wife again, the guy proposing (not directly to me but to my brothers) must have all of the following qualities or factors visible:
1. He strives to follow the right 'Aqeedah belief, aspires to adhere to the Sunnah of the beloved Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam (so he's not one of those beardless boys who sometimes apply cheesy makeup) and shows sincere interest in learning more about Islam through authentic and reliable sources. It's obvious that he is not Shi'a, Sufi, Ash'ari/Ash'arite, an extremist Khariji/Kharijite or "Ikhwaani".
2. He has never tried cigarettes nor does he plan on smoking and taking drugs.
3. He doesn't have any criminal record.
4. He currently has a stable and lawful job, preferably he doesn't work in a bank nor is he an attorney.
5. I'd prefer that he has at least one sister, whether biological sister or half-sister, so I could have at least one sister-in-law.
6. He should genuinely get along well with both my brothers and have no grudge against them. Anybody who has something negative to say or assume about anyone from my family is automatically unappealing.
7. He should be overall confident and ambitious, not an insecure, narcissistic and immature "adult".
8. I would prefer that he is not a divorcee. If he already has a wife, she should make it clear that she is perfectly accepting of seeing her husband have another legal spouse while he agrees that he'll try his best
Inn-sha-Allah to treat his multiple wives as fairly as possible.
9. I would prefer that he doesn't have a son from any previous marriage since a stepson wouldn't be an actual mahram to my daughter and her half-sister.
10. It would be preferable if he is employed in the same city as I reside in.
11. Regardless of his tribe/nationality we should be able to communicate with each other comfortably and clearly, without language barrier and artificiality.
12. It is known that he is patient with and understanding towards his womenfolk/female relatives. It would be a lie to describe him as a misogynist.
13. He is effective at controlling his emotions and gaze. He doesn't stare at non-mahram females online and offline.
If the man proposing lacks any of the above, then Inn-sha-Allah I'd rather stick to my one and only husband and pray that I reunite with him Inn-sha-Allah in Jannah Paradise.
~•~
📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "If someone proposes marriage to you whose religion (Deen / Islam / 'Aqeedah belief) and character satisfies you, then you should accept it. If you do not do so, there will be trials on the earth and the spread of corruption."
Source: Sunan At-Tirmidhi 1084
Grade: Sahih (Authentic) according to Al-Albani
📖 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 (The Almighty) and He (Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala) 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."

Grade: Sahih (Authentic) according to At-Tirmidhi
