Nobility & Salvation 

احذر مودة الناس 

Beware of the love of people

كُنْ سَاكِناً فِي ذا الزمانِ بِسَيئرِهِ *** وعن الورى كُنْ رَاهِباً في دَيرِه

  “Be silent in your era as it moves along

And regarding the those whom came before, be a monk in their monastery

واغسِل يدَيكَ مِن الزمانِ وأهْله *** واحْذِرْ مَوَدَّتهـم تنِل مِن خَيـره

And wash your hands of this time and its people
And be cautious of their love whereby you reach their goodness

إني اطلعتُ فلم أجدْ لِي صاحِباً *** أصحبه في الدهْرِ ولا في غَيْره

I searched but did not find a companion
To befriend through life or than it
فترَكْتُ أسْفَلَهـم لِكَثرَةِ شَـرّه *** وتركت أعْلاهم لِـقلَّة خَيــره

So I abandoned the lowest of them due to the excess of his evil
And I abandoned the loftiest of them due the shortage of his goodness.”

Beware of the love of people
“Be silent in your era as it moves along
And regarding the those whom came before, be a monk in their monastery
And wash your hands of this time and its people
And be cautious of their love whereby you reach their goodness
I searched but did not find a companion
To befriend through life or than it
So I abandoned the lowest of them due to the excess of his evil
And I abandoned the loftiest of them due the shortage of his goodness.”

Forget

Pressed

Ever been stressed........................something on your chest

Ever been pressed........................put to the test

Failed and feelin like......................your worth-Less

Just let'n you know........................you not alone

and if what goes up.......................must come down

It must also be true........................the other way around

and a frown ain't but a smile..........just upside down

Using poetic meter- not a fan of this but giving it a try

  Stressed like something's on your chest

Pressed getting put to the test

Failed feeling like your Worth-Less

Like being lost cant find  home

Just know that your not alone

If what goes up must come down

Must be true other way around

A frown is a smile face down 

Abu Hamza

I am your Test

I got no hinges but a door

I’ve laid the tiles, on a not so solid floor

I’ve got hard but no core

I’m the shiny rims on a car with no engine

I’m a beautiful house you don’t wanna live in

I’m a body with no soul

Deficient never whole

I’ve no love yet me you adore

I can turn something wonderful into something so cold

Like a mother and child killed while on a midday stroll

Like an innocent boy that lied and stole

Over sneakers he thought were soooooo cold

It Just Is...

As warm as a baby's first breath
Much like in autumn at noon,
It Just is...
Nothing in reality's "TOO LATE", or "WAY TOO SOON"
Islams the gate way to Sakina, so dream the right deen,
Dihkru Allah all through the day, and what you strive for will be seen

LIFE

Life is a maze,
which everyone must go through
but unlike a maze,
there is no exit,
until,
you,
die.

Life is a puzzle,
which everyone must solve
but unlike a puzzle,
it cannot be solved,
until,
you,
die.

Life is a vast, open sea,
which everyone must swim through
but unlike a sea,
there is no shore,
until,
you,
die.

Life is a high, high mountain,
which everyone must climb,
but unlike a mountain,
there is no peak,
until,
you,
die.

Life is something,
extraordinary to humans,
always a surprise,
and like a surprise,
you don't know of what's coming,
until,
you,
die.

 

Samiha Shaheed

"A Summers Leaf"

Majestically the suns ray becomes the theme,
A warmth coating all that lives... it is easy...
Dangling in dismay, a leaf unnoticed shades from sight.
Plucked... falls the leaf by the wind... still content.
Drifting from the abuse of the wind... its so colorful.
Tumbling gracefully with pains out of alienation...
Stillness... it is cold... this ground... and no wind.
Slowly the process begins to rot its inside...
Destruction... decay of its existence... a self implosion.
Drops of honeydew appear... dissipating 'the self'...
Struggling no more... death...

"Mommy, mommy...! Look...! It's so pretty. Can I keep it, mommy?"

Life.
