My life is solely for the sake of your pleasure,
And you know, my beloved Lord, that it's for your sake.
O Lord, for you!
O Lord! Just for you!
I desire neither wealth nor life,
I only desire the love of my Lord.
O love of this world, move out of my way!
I desire Jannah.
I've become a stranger to the entire world,
For your sake.

DEFEND THE CAUSE, NOT YOUR PERSON!
Every word you say in Da’wah 'Why did I say this? Why did I type this status? Why did I send that tweet?'
Every time.
Sometimes you are on social media, you are giving Da’wah and you get slandered or you get dragged into an argument or a debate.
If you merely fear that your reply is in retaliation for your own person and not for the cause that you were giving Da’wah in, then back away and do not send it. Complete silence for Allah is better than responding and quarreling that ends up being half for Allah and half for personal gain. Do not worry about your person. Defend the cause, not your person.

“The month of Ramadhan [is that] in which was revealed the Qur’an, a guidance for the people and clear proofs of guidance and criterion. So whoever sights [the new moon of] the month, let him fast it; and whoever is ill or on a journey – then an equal number of other days. Allah intends for you ease and does not intend for you hardship and [wants] for you to complete the period and to glorify Allah for that [to] which He has guided you; and perhaps you will be grateful." [al-Baqarah 2:185]

You will get tested regarding everything you learn and preach
It’s not a mere coincidence that every time you learn a matter of the Deen, post something regarding it, or preach about it - you are immediately tested regarding it. For sure, Allāh is testing you, to see if you are among the truthful or among the liars. To see if you were just the typical copy-paster/hypocritical speaker, or a man of action, truthful to the Haqq he preached.
It usually goes something like this:
You post about speaking the Haqq and not being afraid of harm in this path, and suddenly you get an email or a knock on the door, letting you know you’re now being “watched”. Will you continue speaking the Haqq regardless, or will you turn back on your heels in cowardice?!
You learn about being patient during trials and being pleased with Allāh’s decree, and suddenly you’re hit by a calamity. Will you wipe the tears and whisper Alhamdulillah, or will you turn around in despair and complain to the people about your suffering?!
You speak about the importance of advising people and suddenly you get advised and corrected. Will you humble yourself (by accepting it) and thank the person, or will you turn away in arrogance, rejecting it and criticizing them?!
The point is, everything we learn/preach/post about the Deen, we will definitely be tested on it. If you fail the test, life will go on and you probably won’t even notice it, but it will come back to haunt you in the hereafter. What’s sad is that majority of people are careless, and don’t even realize when this happens and they fail the test too.
As for those who were fearful of their Lord, they remember everything they said in the past. And when the time comes to be tested, they strive to apply everything with the utmost sincerity & perfection, and with the help of Allāh they succeed. Thus winning the love of the One for whose sake they did all this for.
The tests & trials will feel like mere memories after they pass, but your reaction to it (specifically in the first moments) will have everlasting effects in the hereafter. Effects which you will either rejoice over or regret over.
So remember, it’s very easy to learn, memorize, preach, and post. But when the test comes, that’s when the true colors are shown and the real men rush forward to prove themselves, while the cowards shrink away into the shadows.
Act upon everything you preach, and constantly check yourself to make sure you’re not turning into a hypocrite and a liar. The Haqq is meant to flow off the tongues and be applied in every little corner of your life. Don’t constrict it to just your finger tips and tongue.
Every time we’re about to click the post/tweet button or stand up to preach to the people, we should have sweat rolling down our forehead. Fearing for our sincerity and being tested on it, and praying to not disappoint the One who we claimed to be doing all this for.
May Allāh make us from amongst the Siddiqīn, truthful to our Lord and seeking His face in every single thing we do and say and type. Āmīn Ya Rabb!

Ameen Ya Rabb! Allahumma Barik, what a beneficial and heart striking post, may Allah make us steadfast. Ya Allah, if you see any minuscule good in our hearts, forgive us of our shortcomings and fulfill our wish — that these endeavors shall forever only be for your honorable Face and that our intentions not be corrupted. Dear Lord, allow not for us to slip into contradiction of our preaching and create enemies for ourselves on the Day of Resurrection.

وَقَضَىٰ رَبُّكَ أَلَّا تَعْبُدُوا إِلَّا إِيَّاهُ وَبِالْوَالِدَيْنِ إِحْسَانًا ۚ إِمَّا يَبْلُغَنَّ عِندَكَ الْكِبَرَ أَحَدُهُمَا أَوْ كِلَاهُمَا فَلَا تَقُل لَّهُمَا أُفٍّ وَلَا تَنْهَرْهُمَا وَقُل لَّهُمَا قَوْلًا كَرِيمًا
“And your Lord has decreed that you not worship except Him, and to parents, good treatment. Whether one or both of them reach old age [while] with you, say not to them [so much as], "uff," and do not repel them but speak to them a noble word.” [17:23]
means, do not let them hear anything offensive from you, not even say "Uff!" which is the mildest word of disrespect,
وَلَا تَنْهَرْهُمَا
(and do not reprimand them) means, do not do anything horrible to them.
وَلَا تَنْهَرْهُمَا
(and do not reprimand them) 'Ata' bin Rabah said that it meant, "Do not raise your hand against them." When Allah forbids speaking and behaving in an obnoxious manner, He commands speaking and behaving in a good manner, so He says:
وَقُل لَّهُمَا قَوْلًا كَرِيمًا
(but address them in terms of honor.) meaning gently, kindly, politely, and with respect and appreciation.
وَاخْفِضْ لَهُمَا جَنَاحَ الذُّلِّ مِنَ الرَّحْمَةِ
(And lower unto them the wing of submission and humility through mercy,) means, be humble towards them in your actions.
وَقُل رَّبِّ ارْحَمْهُمَا كَمَا رَبَّيَانِي صَغِيرًا
(and say: "My Lord! Bestow on them Your Mercy as they did bring me up when I was young.") means, say this when they grow old and when they die.
أَنِ اشْكُرْ لِي وَلِوَالِدَيْكَ إِلَيَّ الْمَصِيرُ

'Abdullah b. Amr reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:
لدُّنْيَا مَتَاعٌ وَخَيْرُ مَتَاعِ الدُّنْيَا الْمَرْأَةُ الصَّالِحَةُ"
"This world is temporary enjoyment, and the best of its enjoyments is a righteous woman." [Sahih Muslim]
Because of her adherence to her religion, a woman becomes the best thing that could ever happen to a man in this life, and she becomes the greatest treasure he could ever posses. Yet, we find our sisters today discarding their religion and compromising on it's principles in order to gain value in a worthless worldly lifestyle, not knowing that they're only decreasing their worth thereby.
Dear sisters, your worth and value lies in your religion and your religion only, beware of seeking it elsewhere, lest you become a loser in both worlds.
