A Good Death

A GOOD DEATH
by Ahmed

My time has come quickly so
I thought I had ages left to go

My Lord constantly on my mind
My heart praising the Divine

Punctually 5 times salah I would pray
Reciting Quran I always started my day

The daily duas devotedly memorised
Each opportunity they were utilised

Showing kindness to all those I met
Prophet Muhammads (pbuh) teachings I did not forget

In this way my Imaan became strong
So Allah would save me from doing wrong

And when I did do any bad deed
I would repent sincerely with great speed

Asking Allah for a clean sheet
The Masjid my frequent retreat

Listening to the Shaykhs true advice
I acted on it without even blinking twice

Death will come to me like a nice breeze
The angels take my soul with ease

May Allah give all the Muslimeen death upon Imaan
Ameen

A Bad Death

A BAD DEATH
by Ahmed

My time has come quickly so
I thought I had ages left to go

I liked to look slick
Flirting gave me the ‘kick’

Out I went to just chill
With my mates for that buzz and thrill

But along with them little I did know
That from Islam I was distancing myself slow

Like this my Imaan did fade
In sins I began to wade

Death has come around for us
Now I want to catch the Islam bus

Sadly it is too late
I am to suffer the worst fate

Death will come to me with pain
The Shaykhs past warnings in vain

I should have taken heed
And without delay started amassing many good deed

My friends take this poem not lightly
Now is the time to take up Islam fully

May Allah save all the Muslimeen from the pains of death
Ameen
