Stay Strong

Her eyes well defined of love so repressed
She had fought back tears, lowered heads and unanswered texts
These years had drifted by in flightless hope
She had dreamed a dream which found its way
Through her mind in endless sleep

Oh, her heart was given to another
A second in his hands
Little shards of glass
Cut messages of how it could've been

Abstinence was neither cure nor true prevention
But intentions to do this right ran high
Higher and higher in rank ,these feet would numb
To run to eternity but there was no need
Because her heart was molten love

Her heart was a heat that burnt through false dreams
It was sincere belief that these upturned palms
Could never be returned to her empty
Liquid glass she shaped
Making prayers not dreams
Whispering to Him because he had already heard and seen

This was not a case of forget and move on
This was a reminder , so remember
This is time for your surrender
Because destiny breathes through glorious decree
Sweet airs of piety

“And among His signs is that He created for you mates from among yourselves, that ye may dwell in tranquility with them and He has put love and mercy between your (hearts). Verily in that are signs for those who reflect.”
Ar Room 30:21

“There is nothing better for two who love each other than marriage.”
Sahih Al-Jami`, 5200

“When we speak of rulings of love, we must describe two things. One is optional and one is not. The optional love is what leads to love (eyesight, association, etc.) and this is the love that you have to beware of (for it may lead to unlawful acts.) The non optional love, if it happens by the sudden look, or natural passions that develop, you cannot be blamed for it, but it’s how you react to it that Allah will hold you to accountable for.”
Ibn Qayyim

The Messenger peace be upon him said “If a man whose practice of the religion satisfies you, asks you for your daughter in marriage, you should marry them; otherwise there will be corruption in the land.”
Tirmidhi Hasan

“The finest quality that a man can display in Love is continence: to abstain from sin and all indecency. For so he will prove himself to be not indifferent to the heavenly reward, that eternal bliss reserved by God for those who dwell in His everlasting kingdom, neither will he disobey his Master Who has been so gracious to him, in appointing him to be a creature worthy to receive His commandments and prohibitions, Who sent unto him His Messengers, and caused His Word to be immovably established with him-all this as a mark of His care for us, and His benevolence towards us.”
Tawq Al Hamamah-Ibn Hazm

We were with the Prophet while we were young and had no wealth whatever. So Allah's Apostle said, "O young people! Whoever among you can marry, should marry, because it helps him lower his gaze and guard his modesty (i.e. his private parts from committing illegal sexual intercourse etc.), and whoever is not able to marry, should fast, as fasting diminishes his sexual power."
Bukhari


I am as My servant thinks I am . I am with him when he makes mention of Me. If he makes mention of Me to himself, I make mention of him to Myself; and if he makes mention of Me in an assembly, I make mention of him in an assembly better than it. And if he draws near to Me an arm's length, I draw near to him a fathom's length. And if he comes to Me walking, I go to him at speed.
Hadith Qudsi
