People suffer across the world;
Evil seems to prevail.
Allow yourself to hope:
Can we make a difference?
Eventually enemies will become friends.

Pray without ceasing!
 
Beauty of a woman

Her beauty isn’t her face nor clothes
she doesn’t wish to flaunt or expose
she avoids dazzling to impress
for her simplicity is her dress

Her hijab she wears with grace and dignity
she doesn’t care what others will say
she knows it’s her duty
and shell fill it to the best of her ability

She lowers her gaze as she walks
protecting her honour from tempting folk
she knows a quick glance is all it takes
she wont risk it too much is at stake.

She is beautified by her modesty in manners and dress
she is a beautiful muslimah, Allah bless....


Contribution from NIKKY, thankyou nikky its a really great poem. May Allah reward you donation.:D
 
COLOR ME PLAID, MY NAME IS UMMAH

Who am I? Many claim to be a part of me.
But, things are not that simple you see.
To be with me your eyes must not color know.
To be with me you will never a race show.

To be part of me, you will many colors know.
I am not a color, yet I am all colors aglow.
Brown white, black, yellow, red and all,
Blended together like the leaves of fall.

How great is the eyesight of those who are blind,
to the colors of man only one they will find.
If you are with me you will love one another,
There is no color, only sister and brother.
 
Its only for Allah.

Brothers and sisters lend me your ears,
save yourselves, encourage your peers
let go of their pain, alieve their fears
judgement day relentlessly nears.

Birds still sing when nobody knows
a hidden flower still grows
sunlight falls on a desolate plain
why is this you suppose ?

All exists for one common good
from fall of rain to prophethood
to glorify Allah, and all he creates
to praise Him as we should.

The bird that sings in public domain
still sings in quiet refrain,
the hidden flower so scented and bright
gives thanks for the sun and rain.

So too when our praise is hidden or deep
as though to others we sleep
it is Allah alone we direct our deeds
its enough when we secretly keep
our promise to worship and glorify Him
no wordly kudos to reap.

To be like the flower my inward desire
to flourish and brightly shine
give thanks to God and truly aspire
to worship the only devine.

when noone can see what lies in my heart
yet still my covenant grows
when secretly praising his Glorified name
so that its only Allah that knows

Then like the flower my strength will be
not physical just to be seen
but radiating a beuatiful praise
the strength of a perfect deen

Oh Allah grant me this one small thing
that I might glorify you
selflessly as the bird does sing
with a purpose pure and new

Afford me the strength is all I ask
to strive towards your light
to live my life for nothing else
than to fulfill your right
 
Purple Coat

A man carrying a little girl,
I saw in a photo in the paper today,
made me rush to the Masjid and pray,
her best purple coat blooded and torn,
her body bruised the man his burden bourn.

I think at the time it was taken,
this little Muslim sister lived on still,
her tiny life they hadn’t yet managed to kill,
eyes closed but skin pale but still living,
Insha’Allah sweet dreaming not this nightmare reliving.

But at this man’s feet,
others were not so blessed,
lives sacrificed to the greed of the west,
an unhealthy pallor held the skin,
blue tinged grey so black oil the west can win.

No I will never forgive,
nor my sister could I ever forget,
a face peaceful though still blood wet,
I will remember you to my dying day,
Ya Allah please help us ensure those responsible pay.

And so peaceful and kind is our religion,Islam.

God is So Great -- Allaho Akbar

Look at the world around you, what do you see?
huge buildings, vast oceans, lofty mountains, then think how great God must be

Who created the universe so enormous, yet everything fits on the palm of God's Hand
And think how small you are (compared to God), tinier than a grain of sand

Should you then not adore and fear such a Lord Who is so Great
and wish you could evaporate while praising His Name?


(Based on a hadith that states that everything created from the beginning till the end of this world fits on the Palm of Allah's Hand.)
 
Salam aleiykum brothers and sisters, we now have 20 poems, if we can dble this I think it would be great so if anyone wants to add a poem, or if anyone who has not posted wnats to give it a go, please do. Will give it a week or two maybe then put the book together. Allahs blessings on u all :rock:
 
God is great!

A world filled with beauty,
Such wonders I see;
God made mountains and seashores,
He made you and me.
A world so amazing, a world so ornate;
God, our creator, is truly great!


A world full of hatred,
Of terror and war;
Staining life's beauty
With its menace and gore.
But despite human failings and all our hate,
God reigns supreme, He is perfect and great!


He calls us to love
Our friend and our foe;
Human minds fail to grasp it,
But God tells us so!
For those willing to hear Him it is not too late;
Simply follow your Lord, the God who is great!​

Each person has a form of poetry they do best in. I believe you have found the style that suits you best. This is awesome and an excellent piece of work.
 
Absolutely agree with Woodrow, its excellent work Alpha jnr
 
Lets celebrate on what poems mean:
Peaceful writing explaining Islam.
On and off are our poems but they mean one big thing.
Emaan it might bring to us so pray for us.
May Allah bring us all united in heaven!

Maybe this could be on the title page or something...
