I love Muslimah

I love a muslimah because she understands that competition is not why we are here on this land.

I love a muslimah because we both understand that if we strive as hard as we can, Jannah will be our end.

I love a muslimah because we complement each other like the right and the left hand,

I love a muslimah because she takes me as her man and her best friend,

I love a muslimah because she is the best place for a seed to be planted,

I love a muslimah because we are on this journey together with one plan.

I love a muslimah because when we see injustice we both take one stand.

I love a muslimah because she greets me with peace that just puts me at ease.

I love a muslimah because she reminds of the creator of all things when I need a helping hand.

I love a muslimah because Mohammed {SWA} did and as much as I can I want to be like him.

I love a muslimah because she is the only thing that I could keep, even after the very end…………

Insha-ALLAH.

What are we achieving

I dreamed of a life filled bonds between brothers and sisters, because I was trapped in the pain.
All my life I strived so hard to gain
But I felt hopeless brothers on brothers just slain.
Another day comes and nothing change
To me this is all very strange
How do we stay trapped in this vicious cycle of pain?
When well we understand,
We acting like boys when well we be men’s,
The hope for change now rests on our hands.
See I don’t even know what are we fighting for?
I beg Allah Almighty to heal us from this disease;
I have a question why our history is filled with no peace.
Just a lot of broken dreams and mother screams, and chaos in the streets…
We got pirates in the oceans,
Women’s and girls’ raped in the Ogden regions,
Somaliland threaten to be living
Mogadishu still bleeding.
I see we are fighting but what are we achieving???
