The Prophet (alaihi al-salatu wa al-salam) said: ‘Be in this world as if you were a stranger or a traveller’ (Bukhari)
What if today was the day?
What if today was the day?
The day that was written
What would I say?
I’ll remember all the deeds I tried to keep hidden
What if today was the day?
The day I would last see my mom,
Never again to see a ray
of sunshine in the early morning at dawn.
What if today was the day?
The day I would last breathe
and to my dismay
I would be laid to rest on the earth underneath
What if today was the day?
That marks the end of my time on earth
and in my grave I lay,
waiting for my second birth
What if today was the day?
And it just might be…
Which is why I stand and pray
Asking Allah to guide me always.
