My small bit for those better then me…
March 10, 2010If you say, ‘Who cares?’
We say we do.
If you say, ‘Why do you want to help them?’
We say because they suffer
If you say, ‘But they are nothing to you.’
We say they are everything to us
If you say, ‘How do you know they are innocent?’
We say because you never gave them a chance
If you say, ‘Won’t you only bring trouble to your door?’
We say it’s only through this we will be helped
If you say, ‘Who will be concerned by this?’
We say anyone with a conscience
If you say, ‘But there is no smoke without fire’
We say you are right; the media would never lie
If you say, ‘What are you prepared to do?’
We say whatever we can
If you say, ‘What difference can you make?’
We say better to stand and be counted than hide in the shadows…

i love it ,,
truthfully good & beautiful
Prisoner of War
Trapped – Alone, with nothing but four walls
The mind wanders to cherished memories and beyond
Time continues to go by but life stalls
I’m losing my strength to hold on.
Imprisoned for believing, for hearing and obeying
Punished for testifying and affirming the Truth
Prisoner of War of conflicting ideologies
Flawed system which detains indiscriminately
No evidence, no proof – a threat to national security.
Counting each day, each month, each year behind these metal bars
Stripped of my honour, my dignity, and free speech
Humiliated by the media, every trial, court hearing,
Wild accusations, slander and lies
As they try to vilify
My character, the core of my being,
I silently scream to be free.
I long to feel the cool morning breeze
And hear the fajr birds sing
To see Autumn leaves fall from the trees
And the magical moments that freedom can bring.
A flame of hope continues to burn bright
By the letters I receive, which my brothers write
My heart delights as I read each word again and again
Golden words of comfort, calling me to patience
Provide solace to the soul and a shred of humanity
In this cell my home, devoid of any luxuries
Helping me to retain my sanity.
I preoccupy myself with remembrance of Allaah
Console myself with the stories of the Prophets of the past
I’m not the first to be illegally detained
Sadly, I doubt I’ll be the last.
{And certainly, We shall test you with something of fear, hunger, loss of wealth, lives and fruits, but give glad tidings to As-Saabiroon (the patient). Who, when afflicted with calamity, say: “Truly, to Allaah we belong and truly, to Him we shall return.” They are those on whom are the Salawaat (i.e. who are blessed and will be forgiven) from their Lord, and (they are those who) receive His Mercy, and it is they who are the guided ones.} [Al-Baqarah 2:155–157]
Inna lillaahi wa inna ilayhi rajioun.
