A Priceless Gift

By Muhammad Ali
Friendship is a priceless gift
That can't be bought or sold,
But its value is far greater
Than a mountain made of gold.

For gold is cold and lifeless,
It cannot see nor hear,
And in your times of trouble,
It is powerless to cheer.

It has no ears to listen,
No heart to understand.
It cannot bring you comfort
Or reach out a helping hand.

So when you ask God for a gift,
Be thankful that he sends,
Not diamonds, pearls, or riches,
But the love of a real, true friend.

Being Happy

Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections and be grateful to Allah for the blessings you DO have.

Perfect Spouse

May Allah grant all the singles perfect spouses...
May the winds of happiness, love and unity pass through their houses

Jealous Eye

O Creator of the universe
O elevator of the sky...
Shield me from the evil hand,
protect me from the jealous eye

I cried

They:"You stole & lied"
He:"Allah will decide"
They:"Why would He be on your side?"
He:"Because I raised my hands & cried"

Feelings

If i were to mock your mum or dad
You would break inside all hurt and sad

If i had to ridicule your husband or wife
The decision would be made that i have no place in your life

If i insulted your beloved daughter or son
Your emotions would be stirred whilst i have fun

If i speak against those that are dear
Its waves of emotions that i will have to fear

Muhammad (SAW) is more dear to me than my own blood
When you insult my Prophet, you asking for emotions to flood

Its nothing extreme, it all makes sense
You hurt my feelings and i take offence

I dont justify killings or violence
But dont expect me to sit back in silence

If you dont agree with the man, at least lets live like brothers
I might not share your beliefs, but i will never mock others

So please my friend, i love you for you are my fellow being
Just don’t insult Muhammad (SAW), i believe he is the greatest this world has ever seen

My Husband

When the Storm came

He was my umbrella

He protected me from misery and pain

He moved every obstacle in my path

He always told me “it will be ok insha Allaah”

When I looked, he was always there

for me

he hardly left me

He spend his time with me

He seized my fears

He strengthened my will

He removed my doubts

He raised my security

His shoulder was mine



I could depend on him

He showed up out of nowhere...

And warmed my freezing heart

Freed my trapped mind

Never broke his promise to me

truthful

He made my life bright, effortless

He made me sleep with ease, whilst the world was collapsing on me

He would have protected me from bullets

He promised he will be there

until His Owner took him back

My umbrella from the storm

Ow Allah forgive him

have mercy on him

pardon him

accept his deeds

O Allah

Expand his grave

reward him for his goodness

He lit up my heart

Allaah give him a better home than the one he lit and left
