Islam doesn’t suppress desire — it protects it through Nikah. 🤍

📖 Qur’an

وَلَا تَقْرَبُوا الزِّنَى ۖ إِنَّهُ كَانَ فَاحِشَةً وَسَاءَ سَبِيلًا

Transliteration:
Wa lā taqrabū az-zinā, innahu kāna fāḥishatan wa sā’a sabīlā

Meaning:
“And do not even go near zina. Indeed, it is an immorality and an evil path.”
(Surah Al-Isra 17:32)

Islam doesn’t only forbid the sin —
it blocks the road leading to it.

📜 Hadith

يَا مَعْشَرَ الشَّبَابِ، مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ مِنْكُمُ الْبَاءَةَ فَلْيَتَزَوَّجْ
فَإِنَّهُ أَغَضُّ لِلْبَصَرِ وَأَحْصَنُ لِلْفَرْجِ

Transliteration:
Yā ma‘shara ash-shabāb, man istaṭā‘a minkumul-bā’ata falyatazawwj
Fa-innahu aghaḍḍu lil-baṣar wa aḥṣanu lil-farj

Meaning:
“O young people! Whoever among you can afford it, let him marry, for it lowers the gaze and guards chastity.”
(Bukhari & Muslim)

💭 Non-mahram relationships begin with words,
but end with hearts breaking and iman weakening.

💍 Nikah is protection.
🚫 Fitnah is destruction.

Choose Sunnah over society.
Choose halal before regret.

🕊️ If Someone Harms You: Justice Is Allowed, But Sabr Is Higher 🕊️

is a religion of balance. It does not command weakness, nor does it promote revenge. If someone slaps you, Islam allows equal response, but choosing sabr (patience) raises your rank with Allah.

📖 Qur’an: Permission for Justice

وَجَزَاءُ سَيِّئَةٍ سَيِّئَةٌ مِّثْلُهَا ۖ فَمَنْ عَفَا وَأَصْلَحَ فَأَجْرُهُ عَلَى اللَّهِ

Transliteration:
Wa jazā’u sayyi’atin sayyi’atun mithluhā fa-man ‘afā wa aṣlaḥa fa-ajruhu ‘alā Allāh

Translation:
“And the recompense of an evil is an evil like it. But whoever and makes reconciliation — his reward is with .”
📚 (Surah Ash-Shūrā 42:40)

📖 Qur’an: Is Better

وَلَئِن صَبَرْتُمْ لَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لِّلصَّابِرِينَ

Transliteration:
Wa la’in ṣabartum la-huwa khayrun lil-ṣābirīn

Translation:
“But if you are patient, it is better for those who are patient.”
📚 (Surah An-Naḥl 16:126)

🕌 Hadith:

لَيْسَ الشَّدِيدُ بِالصُّرَعَةِ، إِنَّمَا الشَّدِيدُ الَّذِي يَمْلِكُ نَفْسَهُ عِندَ الْغَضَبِ

Transliteration:
Laysa ash-shadīdu bis-ṣura‘ah, innamā ash-shadīdu alladhī yamliku nafsahu ‘inda al-ghaḍab

“The strong one is not the one who overpowers others, but the strong one is the one who controls himself when angry.”
📚 (Bukhari 6114, Muslim 2609)

🌙 Hadith: Reward for Controlling Anger

مَنْ كَظَمَ غَيْظًا وَهُوَ قَادِرٌ عَلَى أَنْ يُنْفِذَهُ، دَعَاهُ اللَّهُ عَلَى رُءُوسِ الْخَلَائِقِ

Transliteration:
Man kaẓama ghayẓan wa huwa qādirun ‘alā an yunfidhahu, da‘āhu Allāhu ‘alā ru’ūsi al-khalā’iq

📚 (Tirmidhi 2021 – Hasan)

🧕 Example from the Sahabah (رضي الله عنهم)

A man once insulted Abu Bakr (رضي الله عنه) in the presence of the Prophet ﷺ.
Abu Bakr remained silent. The man insulted him again — still silence.
When the man insulted him a third time, Abu Bakr responded.

The Prophet ﷺ stood up and left.

Abu Bakr asked why. The Prophet ﷺ said:

“An angel was defending you as long as you were silent. When you replied, the angel left and Shayṭān came. I do not sit where Shayṭān is present.”
📚 (Reported in Musnad Ahmad)
