It's not really a poem,but more of an article.
A conversation with Allah
One day, I woke early in the morning to watch the sunrise. Ah the beauty of
Allah's creation is beyond description. As I watched, I praised Allah for
His beautiful work. As I sat there, I felt his presence with me. He asked
me, "Do you love me?"
I answered, "Of course! You are my Lord!"
Then He asked, "If you were physically handicapped, would you still love
me?"
I was perplexed. I looked down upon my arms, legs and the rest of my body
and wondered how many things I wouldn't; be able to do, the things that I
took for granted.
And I answered, "It would be tough, but I would still love You."
Then the Lord said, "If you were blind, would you still love my creation?"
How could I love something without being able to see it? Then I thought of
all the blind people in the world and how many of them still loved God and
His creation. So I answered, "Its hard to think of it, but I would still
love you."
The Lord then asked me, "If you were deaf, would you still listen to my
word?"
How could I listen to anything being deaf? Then I understood. Listening to
Allah's Word is not merely using our ears, but our hearts. I answered, "It
would be tough, but I would still listen to Your word."
The Lord then asked, "If you were mute, would you still praise My Name?"
How could I praise without a voice? Then it occurred to me: Allah wants us
to pray from our very heart and soul. And praising Allah is not always with
a prayer, but when we are persecuted, we give Allah praise with our words of
thanks. So I answered, "Though I could not physically pray, I would still
praise Your Name.
And the Lord asked, "Do you really love Me?"
With courage and a strong conviction, I answered boldly,"Yes Lord! I love
You because You are the one and true God!"
I thought I had answered well, but...
God asked, "THEN WHY DO YOU SIN?"
I answered, "Because I am only human. I am not perfect." "THEN WHY IN TIMES
OF PEACE DO YOU STRAY THE FURTHEST? WHY ONLY IN TIMES OF TROUBLE DO YOU PRAY
THE EARNEST?"
No answers. Only tears.
The Lord continued: "Why only pray at mosques? Why seek Me only in times of
worship? Why ask things so selfishly? Why ask things so unfaithfully?"
The tears continued to roll down my cheeks. "Why are you ashamed of Me? Why
are you not spreading the good news? Why in times of persecution, you cry to
others when I offer My shoulder to cry on? Why make excuses when I give you
opportunities to serve in My Name?"
I tried to answer, but there was no answer to give.
"You are blessed with life. I made you not to throw this gift away. I have
blessed you with talents to serve Me, but you continue to turn away. I have
revealed My Word to you, but you do not gain in knowledge. I have spoken to
you but your ears were closed. I have shown My blessings to you, but your
eyes were turned away. I have sent you servants, but you sat idly by as they
were pushed away. I have heard your prayers and I have answered them all."
"DO YOU TRULY LOVE ME ?"
I could not answer. How could I? I was embarrassed beyond belief. I had no
excuse. What could I say to this? When I my heart had cried out and the
tears had flowed, I said, " Please forgive me Lord. I am unworthy to be Your
servant."
The Lord answered, " That is My Grace, My servant."
I asked, " Then why do you continue to forgive me? Why do You love me so?"
The Lord answered, " Because you are My creation. You are my servant. I will
never abandon you. When you cry, I will have compassion and cry with you.
When you shout with joy, I will laugh with you. When you are down, I will
encourage you. When you fall, will raise you up.
When you are tired, I will carry you. I will be with you till the end of
days, and I will love you forever."
