All Praise is for Allah

I originally wrote this in response to someone who has been writing poetry praising a bollywood actress (na udhu billah) in the hope of offering naseeha and inspiration insha Allah. I know it could've been better. Hopefully will work on it sometime insha Allah.

O Allah, they love You not as they love those whom You created

They chase the beautiful faces that shall rot in death’s embrace

Do they not see that the beauty they admire came from Your Hands?

That it is only You, who is worthy of all praise?

How misplaced is their false adoration, a blind path

That leads to nowhere but self-destruction

It is only You, who is The Incomparable, TheSublime

Only You who is worthy of the painful longings that hearts behold

My soul saw You long before I entered this world

I vowed then, and I vow now, that only You are my Lord

It is You I long to be with, in my eternal abode



I Miss You O Allah....



My heart is Yours, and my life is Yours

My praise is for You only, my remembrance is Yours

And I imagine the Day I will see Your Beautiful Face

Light upon Light and Grace upon Grace

Your signs are on Earth, in the heavens, and Beyond

But there is one sign that is hidden from all but Thee

My heart...

My heart O Lord! It cries for You

All I want is to be with You

But my longing is tormented by fear of my sins

I feel not worthy of Your Paradise

And it is because Your mercy prevails over Your wrath

That hope dares to orbit my shame and regret

And I hold onto it tight refusing to let go

My Lord... My Lord! You know I love You!

So purify me of all my sins, hidden and known

And make me worthy of Thee

No image resides in my heart – no perishable face

Only the longing to see Your Beautiful Face

So bless me with seeing You on the Day of Recompense

In all Your Perfection and Glory – pleased with me

Just so... just so that, I will never be far from You again

But be with You forever, in Your Jannah for eternity

Subhan'Allah!

All I want is to be with You
But my longing is tormented by fear of my sins
I feel not worthy of Your Paradise
And it is because Your mercy prevails over Your wrath
That hope dares to orbit my shame and regret
