A Reflection on Relationships in Western Societies

SubhanAllah, I just came across an Instagram video about a 19-year-old boy saying he's never held a girl's hand, and he seemed to feel like he's doomed or something. You know, in the West, if a man or woman remains chaste at 19, 20, or even 25, people find it very odd. But honestly, I’d rather be seen as odd and be among strangers than displease Allah by using someone’s daughter for a night and then tossing her aside. As I grow older, I see more and more the ruin that comes from zina and unchecked desires. I truly wish people like him would find their way to Islam. SubhanAllah... Anyway, Alhamdulillah for Islam. Young people often don’t realize how precious it is to stay pure, especially living in a society that bombards us with temptations and all kinds of filth. May Allah protect us all. Ameen. Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh

The Prophet praised the youth who resist desires. So I'm proudly 'odd' if that's the case.

Bro, that video broke my heart a bit. May Allah guide him and all of us. It's tough out there but the reward is worth it.

Ameen. It's wild how they normalize everything except modesty.

I used to feel that same pressure in uni. Alhamdulillah, now I see it as a blessing. Society's standards are messed up anyway.
