Motivational Poetry for the Muslim Ummah..
“Why have you come to school like this?”
“Haven’t you heard a Hijabi was recently dismissed?”
“School authorities don’t allow religious symbols!”
Seemed as if the rule was only against a particular religion!
Rituals and prayers in assembly halls were done unopposed,
Under the label of culture, the majoritarian concept was imposed!
“Are you going to take your picture with … Continue Reading
I hold my pen and begin to write,
Hoping to convey only that which is right,
A poem for tender young minds
Exposed to ideas of various kinds.
You must have heard of LGBTQ,
Or seen the symbol of a rainbow,
Or perhaps got fascinated by a unicorn,
Or in school, about them you may have been taught.
They say … Continue Reading
In the city of Sodom resided a nation,
Plunged in lewdness, evil, and crime,
Who cast aside their obligation
To Allah, the Almighty, the Most High.
To steer them back to righteousness,

I am stuck,
Feeling despicable, and sinful.”
She cried, sobbing.
Her gaze was diverted to the thing in front of her.

“Such lovely weather!
Lemme take a good picture.”
“Hey, can you stop your banter?
Huh, you don’t even bother!”
“I’ll take a picture of your glower
And post it on Gram and Twitter!
What a sensational meme face!
Dear sisso, I look forward to your fame!”
“Hahaha!” the sisters chuckled,
Keeping the atmosphere amicable.
“I saw the meme on Ryan’s … Continue Reading
The phone rang; I received the call.
It was early morning―felt something was wrong.
Perhaps the news of somebody’s death!
On the call was a friend, narrating her ordeal at length.
It was indeed the news of a death―In her brother, imaan had just taken its last breath!
In the Almighty, he’d openly declared his rejection.
It was still difficult … Continue Reading
