I Cry

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

No one sees the tears that I cry
The tears that no one sees

No one knows the pain that I feel
The pain that I feel no one knows

The sadness
The abandonment
The heartbreak

Yeah my heart aches

Sharp pains in my chest
Surely in Allah do hearts find rest

O Allah dry my tears
do away with my fears
relieve my pain

O Allah I beg you

The sadness
The abandonment
The heartbreak

How much more of this can I take?

Help me, O Allah, help me
Release me from this misery
I get down on my knees
and beg You, my Lord, please

Looking Up

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

Looking up at the stars in the sky

Wondering why
Wondering why

Who am I
and how could I

Who are they
and how could they

Why this pain
why these tears

Looking up at the stars in the sky

Remembering why
remembering why

Who I am
and how I could

Who they are
and how they could

Know this pain
know these tears

Allah knows my fears

Looking up at the stars in the sky

I Desire

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

sorry Allah for my transgressions

everyday more confessions

my own fault I confess it

Paradise surrounded by tests

Hell surrounded by desire

ya Allah open up my chest

please save me from the Fire

Your Paradise I desire

the Prophets -peace be upon them- I admire

show me the way with Your Light

know I wanna do right

help me win this fight
help me help others

we’re all sisters and brothers

need to learn to love one another

You’re the only One;

there is no other

to You I turn

sorry for everything

know you guided me to siratelmustaqheem

away from the path of the mushirkeen

united with fellow muslimeen

ya Allah please keep me on your deen

I desire to be of Your mumineen

After All

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

after all the lies and lies

all the cries and cries

feeling like I was gonna die

 

time and time again

gave my heart

was apparent from the start

why was it taken and torn all apart?

 

peace and love is gonna rule the world you say

from Allah is peace and love

He rules the world

turning to Him is the only way

 

where are we going and where do we turn?

there is so much to learn

this life is our sojourn

we shall submit to Allah

 from Allah we come from

to Allah we shall return

 

after all

Ease

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

During the misery get down on your knees;

know that after every hardship comes ease (ameen).

Allah helps those in need who follow siratelmustaqheem;

who are kind to fellow Muslimeen.

Allah help me through it all.

Please don’t allow me to fall.

I feel like I have a huge pillar of pressure building on top of me,

if I don’t get this weight lifted off of me.

I know that I can get through it,

all I have to do is trust in Allah and put my mind to it.

Allah helps those

Cover

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

People might thing that you’re weird if you cover up your hair.

They may also stare.

Someone might even say mean things, but remember that God knows the hearts of all beings.

It’s not weird to be modest.

To be quite honest, the one’s who judge you just because you have respect for yourself are the one’s who truly need to check themselves.

Ramadan is Almost Here

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

The holy month of Ramadan is almost here.

The marvalous blessings that flow from Allah are drawing near.

My heart feels much cheer.

In my eye is a developing tear.

It’s time to draw near; closer to Allah.

Cleanse yours, tune your heart, and prostrate to your Lord!

The holy month of Ramadan is here!

Fasting

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

Fasting, Fasting

abstaining from worldly things

making over the inner-being

 

feeling hunger, feeling thirst

feeling for others who hurt

 

being steadfast in prayer

giving charity because you care

 

doing good deeds so you get more blessings

 

it’s fasting for Allah

a great pillar of Islam

A Nice Fall Day

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

I walked outside on a nice Fall day that our wonderful Creator had made.

I felt the warmth of the ground that laid beneath my bare feet.

I felt the sunshine beam its rays upon me.

I heard the birds sing a fine tuned song.

I thanked God all that day long, for in His Paradise I do want to belong.
