Put your trust in Allah truly believing as though He alone can aid you..

Are you even worthy to mention Allah’s name?

You ask people to trust you but ask yourself and be truthful as to if you really trust Allah.

Don’t ever be the best you can for anyone else. Don’t even be the best for yourself. Be the best you can for the One who deserves nothing short of your best.

There is a time to be loud. And there is a time to be quiet. But its always time to use wisdom when doing both.

Its never about being known. Our history forgets those who put their pride first. Its remembers those who hid their great deeds.

The wise one keeps the faith. The weak falls at each hurdle.

If you are not seeking the Pleasure of Allah you are seeking His Wrath. There is no in between.

We were not sent to learn the bad habits of others around us. We were sent to teach them and bring them to the level worthy of being a true worshiper. Of being a Muslim.

Its all a matter of wills. If your will to do good is stronger then theirs inshAllah you will bring them up with you. If their will to do wrong is stronger, then you will drown with them.

Do not be in awe by a persons question for it might be the only thing they know. Do not be fooled by a persons silence. It might be that they have forgotten more then you will ever learn.

We make not excuses for others yet expect them to be made for us.

Our hearts are like wells and the dua is like a bucket. Use the bucket to bring what’s inside to the surface and ask Allah for all your needs.

A person has no problems getting on their hands and knees if they drop something or are looking for something yet find it difficult to humble themselves before the One who gave them life.

Why is Deen so difficult to give to our children and love so easy when Deen is what will benefit them far more?

What is it that you own that cannot be taken away? For one day it will all be taken away.

If you find a person who has more knowledge and sincerity then you then know that it is because they have less sin then you.

If a person was to throw a full good meal in the bin we would consider it a waste but wouldn’t bat an eyelid to a person throwing away their time, wealth and actions in other then the service of Allah.

All those people we tried to please in this world over the want of pleasing Allah? Will they look for us while we are in the fire?

Trying to disprove the Quran? You have more chance of pushing the sun round the earth using oven gloves to protect your hands.

Reach for the sky? No. Muslims reach for the heavens.

Remember the poor and the captives. It may well be that one the Day of Judgement they will be kings and Queens and you will need them to remember you.

You ever had that moment where someone takes your picture and they catch you at an awkward moment and you hate the picture?
Does that one picture define you?
No.
It’s the same with certain moments in our lives. Just because we had them they don’t define us.

The greatest sacrifice is the silent one

The more you learn the less you talk

Sometimes in life what we want to be our medicine is really our poison.

When I am grateful for every single thing I have maybe then Ill start feeling dismayed when I don’t have more.

Getting and no giving. Is that what your relationship with Allah is based on?

He who has no one always has The One.

Our Prophet laid the foundation. Now what will you build on it?

It is nothing but arrogance to think we will wake each morning.

How great is Allah who gives you what you need without you to even ask for it.

Make dua to Allah for the big and the small for He is the Lord of all.

How can men talk about unity if they haven’t even made salah in jammah a regular occurrence?

The Quran is like an ocean. Dive in.

Enough room to make sajood and enough room for them to bury you. That’s all the room you need.

Guns don’t destroy nations. Sins do.

Want to learn generosity? Learn from the poor.

Want to learn about yourself? Benefit someone who cannot benefit you.

How did we get from asking to getting to forgetting?

Want to kill time? Then know that time is killing you.

99 people cannot benefit you in the slightest when compared to just one of Allah’s names.

Wonder at the mercy of Allah where He allows us to ask for Jannah having done nothing to deserve it and seek refuge from the fire when you have done nothing to avoid it.

When you think you are somebody then know you nobody. Know when you think you are nobody you are somebody before Allah.

What will kill you? Weakness. What causes weakness? Lack of sincerity.

A woman will convince her husband with dunya. Why not use the same affection to convince them of the Hereafter?

Do not complain about what you don’t have. There is no glamour in the grave.

The rain pours down when your dua is raised up.

It doesn’t matter how you die. It matters in which state you die.

Its little deeds that snowball into huge ones. Just make the effort.

If you need others to stand with you for what you believe then best you just sit.

It doesn’t matter if they would do it for you. What matters is you did it for them.

Me, myself and I. Three friends who are the only ones I need to share my deeds with.

The active one who looks will find good to do. The negligent will not have to worry. Sin will come to him.

Death is a release for the believer in this life. Death will be a wish for the disbeliever in the next.

Criticism can be your friend but praise will always be your enemy.

This is you
This is your right

You who have no rights are showered with them
He who deserves all His rights receives none from you

If this was trade, you would be considered a thief

If this was done to you, you would certainly complain

If this was done to anyone you knew, you would tell them to leave this relationship

This is your Lord
So where is His right?

If he took back His favours
What could you do?

If He took you to account
To who could you run for help?

This is your Lord
So recognise His right

Not for Him. Mighty and Magestic
But for yourself

He was the Lord of Muhammed
Upon whom be peace
He is your Lord
While you search for peace

He saw then
He sees now
It is only the hands that ask what changed

This is your Lord
Which of His names ring in your heart?

You will make a good thing bitter
But your Lord will make a bitter thing sweet

You who only worships out of necessity
Yet He divides and accepts that little which you managed to do

You who find obligations are chore
Yet He obliges things upon Himself

This is your Lord
So worship him as such..

Increase her knowledge and decrease her being known!

Oh Allah!

Never let her love for the people increase if it decreases her love for You!

Oh Allah!

Deny her not Your Mercy!

Oh Allah!

Keep her close to those who love to meet You and far from those who dislike to die!

Oh Allah!

One more Ramadahan! One more Ramadan!

Oh Allah!

Never let them see what she do. Be it from the good or the bad!

Oh Allah!

Never let her back bend for other then You!

Oh Allah!

Never let her be content with her deeds!

Oh Allah!

Never let her put her hand in a situation she cannot handle!

Oh Allah!

Make the good ease for her and the forbidden an impossibility!

Oh Allah!

Grant her passage to the places that please You and never where You are angry!

Oh Allah!

Give her character that You are pleased with and that will be pleasing for Your sake alone!

Oh Allah!

You know her weakness, turn them into her strength!

Oh Allah!

Make her dependency upon You alone!

Oh Allah!

Jannah for the one who has my heart by Your Mercy!

Mine to have
To hold
To care
To never share

Night or day
Good and bad
It never mattered
Because you were there

A lifetime of chasing shadows
When you were what was real

I’m sorry I hurt you
Truly I am
This life will never be enough to tell you how much I care

The time I spent away from you
I consider it nothing but a waste

The time I spent with you
Priceless

You don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone
But I have you and I know your worth

For me your equal does not walk this earth
Nor breathe the same air
Because you have no equal

You’re special
You just don’t know it yet…

You are heedless of your Lord
Yet He remembers you much

You fast not for His Sake
Yet He provides for you your sustenance

You question Him when calamity falls
Yet He keeps you safe from every harm

You walk not to His house
Yet He provides you with a healthy body

You turn your face away
Yet He blesses you with beauty

You withhold your hands
Yet He provides for you wealth

Your face does not turn red when He is abused
Yet He answers you when you need

You complain about what you don’t have
Yet He showers you with blessings

You compete in sin
Yet He withholds His punishment

You laugh like you will live forever
Yet He allows you to wake each day

O Slave of Allah!
Who destroys you but you?

Intention
So beautiful yet so hard
When channelled you lead to a ocean of happiness
But when my weakness lets my evil nafs take over
You take me to the sewer of my wants

Praise be to You
Oh Master of Masters
It’s through hardship
You made me realise what I had
It’s only through pain I return to You

I thought I knew it but You taught me
You taught me that I knew nothing

This world is not for me
Don’t ever make this world enough for me
Never let this head raise to look at another’s plate
Never let this man envy
Never let him look at another’s possessions and desire
Never let him be anything less than content.
Make the dua of Your beloved my dua and never leave me to myself for even the blink of an eye.
The blink of an eye.

Cars rust, clothes tear,
Money gets spent and looks wither away
All that will be remembered is sincerity
Sincerity for You

They care not what is lawful and what is not
Chewing on Riba, licking their fingers after
Chasing shadows as if the pleasure of this life are eternal
Their longing to be remembered is laughable
As if when they are gone their nearest won’t move on
As if from the sky they are not ants

If they bid for my contentment tell them I won’t sell
If they offer their wealth tell them to wash their souls and barter with that instead

All I get is one chance
Just one chance
Why would I spend that dreaming?

They lie
They go back on their word
They slip up
In the end You are all that is true

You were all that was ever true…

You come by cover of darkness
Through peril and strife
You hear that you are needed and you respond

They come like kings to rule over what they see
They come to deliver what they want to whom they want
Never can they be wrong

You come to deliver justice
Nothing for you
Your lives for those who you don’t know
For a Lord you have never seen

They bring wine and filth
They bring fancy planes, big tanks and numbers

You bring the book that will fit in your pocket
It’s your map, your light and your comfort
You wear two faces
One for your enemy
One for your Lord

Their arrogance can be smelt from miles
Time is not their friend so they must butcher and butcher fast
For the pound they love is being eaten fast

You have nothing but patience
You will bed in for a long night
Sleeping under the stars
Rocks as pillows and a coat to cover

They cannot wait to leave, cursing the day they came
Marking their escape on calendars and walls

You have waited so long to enter, never letting anything stand in your way.
Route after route closed but you find your way

They bomb from up high
Men, women or children it makes no difference
Their colour the same
They were all judged and found guilty

Your arrows reach their mark
How could they not when guided by the prayers of the innocent?
Better to spare the guilty then harm the innocent you believe

If they return they never wish to come back
They can never be the same again
Their conscience screaming at them

You will be restless also
Waiting for the day when you will return
Waiting to be with brothers so humble

They will have the best of treatment
Compensation and pensions
Warm beds and many pills

You have a desire
You have a destiny
You have what was promised to you

They rush to their graves
While you run to the Hoors

They to their destruction
You to your scented end…

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 dare not whisper a need

For I know it will be fulfilled even before the words settle

Who honours the guest better than you?

Your house so well kept a testament to a loving mother of beautiful children

You would feed me from what you didn’t have

Your children would go hungry if only I did ask for a thing

At the call of your guest

Your guest who becomes your family

Am I a king or a guest?

In this house there is no difference

Want for nothing

Feeling like a burden

That is my state

Impossible that anyone can do what you do without to feel it

Your floor dearer to me than my own bed

Anger shows on your face only if my hand reaches towards my own pocket

In a world of greed you lay your heart out for me

The best of men

The best of friends

The best of all my brothers

They will wish they had what I have in you

Behind every great man is one of my sisters

Obedient and caring

A treasure from the treasures of Allah

Her goodness echoes around all the rooms

I miss you my brother the minute I leave you

Wanting always to come back

Hating anything that goes the opposite way

Knowing that it will be closer to you than I

If I lived for a thousand years

I would not be able to repay you

Such is your status in my eyes…
