Have you noticed when you meet a particular brother or sister for the first time, you get along with them instantly. You agree on most things, you feel comfortable in their presence and most importantly you talk to them as if you have known them for years.
You even express yourself in a way that would take you months or even years with other people. You don't hold back what you want to say and can express yourself freely in their presence.
After meeting them a few times you have a firm attachment to them and proudly proclaim them to be your brother or sister.

The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) described why this happens.
A'isha (radiallahu anha) narrated that the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: “Souls are troops collected together and those who got along with one another (in the realm where souls existed before entering physical bodies in this world)
will have an affinity with one another and get along (in this world)."
(Bukhari, 3158; Muslim, 2638)

So the brothers and sisters that you love and cherish in this world are with you for a reason.
You were joined together before you were born and you exist in harmony together as brothers in this world as a result of that attachment.

Al-Khattabi states that people are attracted to those who are like them and people’s souls recognise one another according to their nature.
If they are similar they will get along and if they are different they will not get along.

Finally this sums things up. Ibn Hibbaan narrated: "Ibn Abbas saw a man and said, ‘Indeed he loves me.’ His companions asked, ‘And how do you know?’
He said, ‘Because I love him and souls are like recruited soldiers, those that recognise one another unite in harmony and those that do not recognise one another are at an aversion.’
(Rawdah Al-Uqalaa, 1/108).
May Allah bless our brothers and sisters and may we all meet in the gardens of Jannah under the Shade of Allah.. Ameen!

Sisters if you don't want to work after marriage and support your spouse financially please explicitly state this to your future spouse and their family.
I have come to know that men and their families are seaching for working women so that they can come into their family and support the family at large especially with finances.

Islamically women have no such duty or responsibility. If a woman earns it's her own money.
If she decides to support her husband and his family that's a good deed but not an obligation and she cannot be forced or guilt tripped into doing this.

There are men and families who need women to work and support the household.

Once, when Umar bin al-Khattab (رضي الله عنه) was walking in the market, he passed by a man who was supplicating,

اللهم اجعلني من القليل اللهم اجعلني من القليل
“O Allah, make me from the few! O Allah make me from the few!”
So ‘Umar said to him, “Where did you get this Dua from?” And the man said, “Allah in His Book says:
و قليل من عبادي الشكور
‘And few of My servants are grateful.’ (Qur’an 34:13)”
So ‘Umar wept and admonished himself, “The people are more knowledgeable than you, O Umar! O Allah make us from Your ‘few’ servants.”

Sometimes when you advise someone to leave a sin, they respond with “But everybody does it, it’s not just me!”

There’s been somewhat of an uproar over Mohammad Salah (football player) celebrating Christmas, and many Muslims are upset.
I don’t wish to discuss what he did at this point as it’s obvious what he did was utterly wrong,
but what shocks me is why Muslims make worldly celebrities as their role model in dīn.
The best role model is our beloved Prophet ﷺ, and we don’t need anyone else.
Thus, it is vital for us Muslims to learn our creed & dīn in such a manner that if all the Muslims celebrities not only celebrated Christmas, but hypothetically left Islam - and Allāh’s refuge is sought -
