A poem for I.F.A.M

Asalamu Alaikum everyone.

Here is the poem i wrote for the Muslim organisation "Islam for a month"( I.F.A.M) an organisation created in July 2011 to give the correct understanding of Islam to Non- Muslims.

Last month they started the BUDDY project which pairs established Muslims with a convert who may be struggling with different issues. This poem was created to help give awareness of the project.

Please read more about them and this project on this link http://www.islamforamonth.org/.

[Topic requested by sister - Friendship]

Buddy for Life

A new person, a fresh beginning,

Starting over, a new meaning to living,

One enters Islam forgiven for past sinning,

Your Lord Most Merciful, guided you to this religion.

Surrounded with welcoming faces,

Taken to new places,

Introduced to brothers,

New sisters meet others,

Brother and sisterhood around you is strong,

You have found somewhere you finally belong.

Weeks and months pass, calls and invites decrease,

You try and keep contact; seems they’re too busy to speak,

You ask for advice and feel alone in the crowd,

Your voice ignored and silenced, yet you’re screaming out loud.

Those who enter Islam need companions by their side,

Ready to advise in times of trouble,

One to share with and confide,

A shoulder for support,

One who listens in hard times,

Someone to help out,

When troubles overwhelm like a tide

A duty upon every Muslim, to help those in need

Not just the weak and needy, but those new to the deen,

Give time and energy to help them in this journey,

Allah will reward your efforts and your blessings will be many.

New Poem

Asalamu Alaikum everyone and many apologies for another delay. 
In sha Allah, poems will be posted when promised.
Thank you for your patience :)


I'm still posting a Jumm'ah Reminder for last week as i want to share this amazing poem that speaks of the reality facing some men and women in our society.

                   [Topic request from follower AkhiKamran - Family]


 None like them

The blessings of a family,

You can never compare,

With countless stories to tell,

And loving memories to share,

There is no-one like them,

Each one created rare,

From parents to siblings,

Who show you they care.

Much our mothers have given,

Little we return,

A lifetime they have sacrificed,

Paradise they have earned,

Value her for she is priceless,

Let her be aware,

She’s worth more than the world’s riches,

Deserves more than what is here.

When it seems you and your family oppose, 

Like you’re both on different sides,

Have patience with them and remember your Lord,

Know their love is deep inside,

Sometimes it’s declared openly,

Other times the words may hide,

But the love is a bond none can copy,

It is truly one of a kind.

Allah in His wisdom granted you this family,

Not facing this world alone,

Always a sibling to talk to,

Or a parent you can phone,

But in Islam we are all brothers and sisters,

Who should help in highs and lows,

It is not only blood that relates you,

But your faith in life that grows.

A gift from your creator,

A unique relation made up above,

There will never be anyone like them,

Your family, a real love.
