Assalamu`Alayakum

This really made me cry.

A poem full of my feelings to someone who can do something about my father whom we have not seen for four years:

Tony Blair It’s not fair

My Dad is there

Where he cannot dare

To have a fresh air

Of the world out there

You don’t see his tears

You don’t really care

My eyes just stare

To the freedom that we share

In a cage that is bare

There is nothing to spare

My eyes cannot bear

To see what they wear

He deserves to be here

With me in my prayer

I want him with me near

So I can take care

Of a father that is rare

To be found anywhere

I love you Abi

And this is a poem written by his wife. May Allaah give them and all other families of detainees sakeena in their life and hasten their release ~Ameen.

Muslim ummah sleeping

Suffering children weeping

UN, US meeting

Muslim leaders greeting

Injured brothers bleeding

Oil worth of keeping

Evil plans are breeding

Human life is bleaking

Houses shelters creaking

Israeli tanks creeping

Blood of martyrs leaking

Heartless people beating

Search for peace is breaching

Nuclear weapons shrieking

Hungry babies freezing

Cosy ministers eating

Day of Judgement leaping

Love for dunya increasing

Fathers, brothers pleading

How is Iraq? 'It's breathing'

Mothers, sisters meeking

Patience is squeaking

Where is Mohammad's preaching? (pbuh)

Don't forget his teaching

Day is near for reaping

Jaishe Mohammed heating

Sigh, prayers reaching

Allah's help beseeching
 
Subahan`Allaah, I dont know if I am angry or full of saddening burden,I feel I have forgotten my brothers and sisters.

The Messenger of Allah (saw) also said, "The believers, in their love, mutual kindness, and close ties, are like one body; when any part complains, the whole body responds to it with wakefulness and fever." [Muslim],
