Poems

"Sincerity"
Learn to call on Allah in the dark
while riding on a bus or sitting in a park
Learn to do it when alone in a room
or staying up late staring at the moon
and if someone boasts about
what he did for Allah
and asks you to tell him
what you did for Allah
just say "Why should I tell you
if I did it for Allah?"


"So Flee to Allah"
Let go of everything
you're sticking to so hard
anything that's keeping
Iman from reaching
the inside of your heart
and like Allah said
in Surat Al-Zariyyat
translation of the meaning
just check were it's at
verse fifty is where I am reading
"So Flee to Allah"
Flee to Allah?
from who?
from a Great Power
nothing in the Universe
is Greater nor Higher
than that Self
who could it be?
except Allah Himself
