Attaching yourself to this life will have you lose your purpose. For your only purpose is to be a worshipper and understand that you’ve never been created to remain here. Put the seeds of righteousness into this earth, and depart from it as a stranger.

The sunnah is to have affection to those dear to you and to display it and not hide your Love for them, anything opposing to this is created by the perverted westerners who make everything weird and suspicious, telling your friend, -who’s your companion on your way to Allah- that you love them is no shame, for, if you didn’t love them you wouldn’t still maintain and protect your friendship. There is no shame in loving your friend and showing this to them, they’re your friends by choice, not by force, they’re your friends, not business partners.
Wallah, how many times we’ve regretted not telling our friends how we truly felt towards them, and how many times have they left before we got the chance to show them our affection. So as long as your friends are alive, tell them that you love them often, for one day one of you will stay to mourn the other, and one of you will regret not showing affection, but then it will be too late.
A really dear person to me said after I complained of how shy I would get at their compliments: “We have always seen and heard in western kaffir media how loving and caring kuffar are to their dear ones -from platonic and romantic partners- a muslim should be much better than that! We as muslims are better than them and are commanded to love each other, so we should see how they treat each other, and treat one and other even better so get used to my compliments and expect even more.”

By Allah a lot of us are affected with الوهن! Yes there’s a nothing wrong with wanting a good life in this dunya, but not excessively especially in our times when a lot of Muslimin are under torture/imprisoned/massacred every day/other day. Ponder over the Hadith narrated by thawban رضي الله عنه:
يُوشِكُ الأممُ أن تداعَى عليكم كما تداعَى الأكَلةُ إلى قصعتِها . فقال قائلٌ : ومن قلَّةٍ نحن يومئذٍ ؟ قال : بل أنتم يومئذٍ كثيرٌ ، ولكنَّكم غُثاءٌ كغُثاءِ السَّيلِ ، ولينزِعنَّ اللهُ من صدورِ عدوِّكم المهابةَ منكم ، وليقذِفَنَّ اللهُ في قلوبِكم الوهْنَ . فقال قائلٌ : يا رسولَ اللهِ ! وما الوهْنُ ؟ قال : حُبُّ الدُّنيا وكراهيةُ الموتِ
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: The people will soon summon one another to attack you as people when eating invite others to share their dish. Someone asked: Will that be because of our small numbers at that time? He replied: No, you will be numerous at that time: but you will be scum and rubbish like that carried down by a torrent, and Allah will take fear of you from the breasts of your enemy and last enervation into your hearts. Someone asked: What is wahn (enervation). Messenger of Allah (ﷺ): He replied: Love of the world and dislike of death.
[Sunan Abi Dawud 4297]
Isn’t this the case of us today نسأل الله العافية ❤️🩹. May Allah عَزَّ وَجَلَّ use us and purify our hearts and actions from Wahn آمين

🌟 Allah ta’ala says: ❛{Alhamdulillah | All the praises and thanks are to Allah} Who has sent down to His servant [Muhammad ﷺ] the Book (i.e. the Qur’an), and has not placed therein any crookedness.❜ [Surah al-Kahf 18 : 1]
The word {Alhamdulillah} means all praise and gratitude are to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala for everything. Sometimes in the Qur’an, Allah highlights a specific matter for us to ponder, and upon that reflection, the word that should come out from our mouth is: Alhamdulillah.
In this aayah, Allah says that there is no room for any deviation in the Qur'an. No matter how political, ideological, economy, technology, fashion, society’s values, or culture changes — one thing will not change — and that is the Qur'an. Its principles and truth are straight and clear as how it was first revealed.
When humanity dictates what is normal, the common standard will always deviate. What used to be detested and unacceptable by society, have been accepted as normal today. Allah says in another surah:
🌟 ❛If you obey the majority of those on earth, they will make you lose the way of Allah.❜ [Surah al-An'am 6 : 116]
Alhamdulillah, Allah teaches us through His Book that we are not those who keep changing our standards when the world changes.
Alhamdulillah, we are freed from slavery to worldly trends, from accepting what is filthy and corrupt in the Sight of Allah ta’ala as normal.
Alhamdulillah, Allah has removed these worldly shackles for us. True freedom is being freed from all these false attachments, and to rely solely on Allah ‘azza wa jalla. Rasulullah salla Allahu ‘alayhi wa sallam said:
🌟 ❛Islam began as something strange, and it will return to being strange (meaning, only a few believers will adhere to its teachings), so give glad tidings to the {ghuraba’ | strangers} (i.e. the ones who truly adhere to the Deen).❜ [Sunan Ibn Majah 3986 | Graded Sahih by Darussalam]
May Allah make us amongst the ghuraba’.

Continued...
I will go in line I'm the only soul
I won't carry memories any longer
I moved on and let go
Of all strings that pulled my heart
I will grow stronger
I will fight this battle with all my might
I will not die twice, just so you know
I've already died once when you let me go
So never mention my name
Never seek for me
Never shed a single tear
If you hear "she's gone"
I won't ever look back
I'm as cold as ice
What do you expect?
An abandoned house is no longer a home
It grows cold and dark
While it stands in silence

The ghuraba are such people that they live in cities where millions of people live. But they remain lonely and misunderstood. There is only one or two of them in entire cities..."

The muwahideen are finding marriage difficult, among a lot of things. And I want to say, the path of the Ghuraba isn’t paved with roses. Being from the Ghuraba isn’t an aesthetic. It’s is a path that Allah blessed us to be upon. So remember it , when things became difficult. When marriage isn’t easy, remember this. Make dua and tie your camel.
And when you make dua, consistently do it. Day in and day out. Tahajjud shouldn’t be a once every 2 week thing. Make it part of your routine. Raise your hands to the heavens and beg Allah. Show humility to and tell Allah honestly. If you want companionship, tell Allah that. If you fear falling into zina, be honest about it with Allah. When it rains, make dua. Between the adhan and iqaamah, make dua. In Sujood, make dua. The last hour of Friday, make dua. The dua made at tahajjud is an arrow that never misses its target. So where are you, o you who has a need that needs fulfilling ? Where are your who wishes to have that which they desire? If you are sleeping at that time, do you really want it? You truly don’t want it if you know you have a Lord that descends and seeks to fulfill the need of His slaves.
Ask family, friends and people at the masjid. Do something new and look outside of your town, city or even country. There has been plenty of brothers and sisters on the manhaj who have traveled elsewhere for a spouse or maintain a long distance relationship as a temporary before they are united . If you have a preference, look outside of that and expand your options. Ask those online and if the online route is taken, do your due diligence. It shouldn’t be the first choice but after asking Allah, go for it (for sisters, please always seek permission from a wali and have him every step of the way, online and in real life). Even if the your surroundings are mainly liberals and madkhalis for example, don’t ever underestimate Allah. Allah can send somebody to you when you least expect it in a way that you could never imagine. So have good thoughts of Allah. He is how we think of Him. Do you think He will never give you a spouse? Believe your Lord will answer you and that you will be pleased.
Don’t forget to look into your self. How is your heart with Allah? How much are your sins? Are they greater than your good deeds ? How many sins are you willingly indulging in that you can easily cut off? You want a righteous spouse but are you striving to be from the righteous ? You ask Allah for a spouse and you feel as if your dua isn’t being answered , but what is the amount of sins?
Are you fulfilling your obligations? Are you praying on time , giving zakat, forbidding the evil and enjoining the good , maintaining ties with kith and kin, staying away from the haram? Brothers, are you defending the Ummah and securing the release of the captives? Look into yourself. There could be things that are delaying the response to your dua. Also, think of how you’re close to Allah right now on your state. You’re begging Allah consistently in Tahajjud, your mouth is constantly moving with dua, you’re in a state of hope and wanting a need fulfilled. Yes it’s not easy being patient upon something you’ve been wanting for a long time, but take advantage of how close you are to Allah now. Maybe Allah wants to keep you near Him. Maybe He wants to hear your voice just a little more.
Purify your intentions. The spouse you desire isn’t just for yourself. Have the intention when you get married it is to aid the deen of Allah. It is to bring victory back in the earth and to raise children who will uphold the banner of Tawheed high in the lands. A righteous spouse is part of your enjoyment but remember the bigger picture.
As a last note, work to keep your heart attached to Jannah. We may not get everything we want here but what is with Allah is much better and greater. Dunya isn’t final. It’s just a bridge. Keep your eyes in the prize and your heart connected to heavenly matters. Ask Allah to grant you contentment with your Qadr and to make it easy for you to be grateful in all situations. والله اعلم
May Allah grant all the muwahideen righteous spouses sooner rather than later. May Allah grant us patience and protect us from falling into fitnah. May Allah answer your Adiyah in beautiful ways. آمين

From Sufyaan ath-Thawree [رحمه الله] who said:
«استوصوا بأهل السنة خيرا فإنهم غرباء»
❝Show concern for the Ahl-ul-Sunnah with goodness since indeed they are the Ghuraba.❞

Do you want to leave this path because you feel it’s not the Truth, or is it because of worldly matters like fear of being called named by the K4ff/munafiqeen, or imprisonment, friends leaving you, the media, your family’s thoughts/sayings about you? Re-assess your every intention, if you believe something is the truth, then be sincere and fear a Day when you would stand in front of your Lord to answer what you did with the Truth after it was shown to you. And ponder over the aayah:
<<قل إن كان آباؤكم وأبناؤكم وإخوانكم وأزواجكم…()>>

Siapakah yang memberitahu engkau bahawa jalan ke Syurga itu dibentangi dengan bunga-bunga?
Apakah engkau tidak pernah membaca walau sedikit kisah para pendamba Syurga?
Sungguh, perjalanan mereka menuju kepada-Nya dikelilingi dengan hal-hal yang tidak disukai oleh jiwa.
Dipinggirkan, ditindas, terluka, terasing di tanah sendiri bahkan di kalangan kaum kerabat sendiri.
Jalan para pejuang Tauhid tidak menjanjikan apa-apa keselesaan dan kemewahan dunia. Sebaliknya, ia penuh dengan pancaroba. Kadang, sehingga menyesakkan dada.
Ada satu keyakinan yang mereka pegang. Keyakinan itu jugalah yang membuat mereka bertahan. Ia adalah janji yang pasti dari Tuhan. Barangsiapa yang tidak mensyirikkan Allah walau sedikit pun dan dia menjual dirinya, nyawanya kepada Allah, maka redha Allah dan Syurga sudah menantinya.
“Sesungguhnya Allah membeli dari orang-orang mukmin, baik diri mahupun harta mereka dengan memberikan syurga untuk mereka. Mereka berperang di jalan Allah, sehingga mereka membunuh atau terbunuh, (sebagai) janji yang benar dari Allah di dalam Taurat, Injil, dan Al-Quran. Dan siapakah yang lebih menepati janjinya selain Allah? Maka bergembiralah dengan jual beli yang telah kamu lakukan itu dan demikian itulah kemenangan yang agung.” (surah At-Taubah: 111)
Janji dari Rabb semesta alam itulah yang melegakan hati mereka. Walau sedahsyat manapun malapetaka itu menerpa. Sungguh, Allah tak akan sesekali memungkiri janji-Nya. Mereka percaya akan hal itu.
Jika engkau memutuskan untuk melangkah ke dunia Ghuraba ini, jangan berharap pujian, populariti, atau berharap manusia akan melayanimu bak raja atau engkau dibentangkan karpet merah. Usah bermimpi!
Bersiap-sedialah menjadi orang yang terasing.

🌺 Allah says: ❛Alhamdulillah, Who has sent down to His servant [Muhammad ﷺ] the Book (i.e. the Qur’an), and has not placed therein any crookedness.❜ 【Surah al-Kahf 18:1】

No matter how political, ideological, economy, technology, fashion, society’s values, or culture changes — one thing will not change — and that is the Qur'an.

Alhamdulillah, Allah teaches us through His Book that we’re not among those who keep changing our standards when the world changes.
Alhamdulillah, we are freed from slavery to worldly trends, and from accepting what is filthy and corrupt as normal.
Alhamdulillah, Allah has removed these worldly shackles for us. True freedom is to truly be freed from all these false attachments, and to rely solely on our Creator. Rasulullah salla Allahu ‘alayhi wa sallam said:

So as believers, do not be embarrassed for holding tightly to the Deen, and do not seek honour and success from everything else other than Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala and His religion. May Allah make us amongst the ghuraba’.

Continued..
I've died a thousand times
Everytime I remember where I stand
A bit of my dies
Do you know how it feels like
To be dead to those you love
Those who shared your blood
Those who you thought once loved you
I've seen how peopl forget
How they move on like I never exist
Replace and erase
While I call out loud
They can't hear nor do they care
I feel dead while I'm alive
My "home" has vanished
And the longing to belong
I too, will walk ahead
And never look over my shoulder
I won't regret
I'll complete my dreams
I will fly higher than you can ever reach me
With my Lord's help
I'll make you regret
Turning your back..
While I fly inside
A green bird's chest.
