Poem: World is in chaos and surely it is not Allah's will

The world is in chaos and surely it is not Allah's will

06.06.23

The world is a troubled place,
Fraught with battles, and faces of pain.
Never was it Allah's will,
For transgressors to have their great sway.
The drug lords, violent and cruel,

Spread hate where peace should bloom.
The warlords seek only destruction,
Perversions of Allah's great creation.
But still, amidst all of the chaos,

We strive to find faith and solace.
Let us remember for today
Allah's blessings and will have a blessed day ahead.
Verdant plains take on morning rays

A light of divinity casts its rays
But in chaos and destruction, the world lay
It's surely not Allah's will
With transgressors and warlords destroying allays

Drug lords corrupt, regret won't delay
Twisting and turning the pious away
It's not part of Allah's great creation
This earth is filled with pain and affray

A future of bloodshed seems to stay
Let us come together in this great fray
For that, let Allah help pave the way
Let us stay humble and have faith

Let us turn and pray for relief
From this dread and despondency, we must face
As a reminder from our Creator we a must embrace
On this solemn day ahead

Let us come together and put Allah's word to the test
Let us be servants to help the oppressed
And with blessed hearts, let us strive toward Allah's behest

ON A JOURNEY WITH IMAM AL-ALGHAZALI: "The greatest lessons that I have learned is the importance of self-respect"

As a Muslim on a journey,  as taught by the renowned scholar and philosopher, Imam Al-Ghazali. T he greatest lesson is the importance of self-respect. Algazelus In today's fast-paced and competitive world, it is quite common for people to compromise their self-respect in order to fit in or please others. We often hold on to relationships and situations that are toxic, simply because we fear being alone or rejected by society. However, as Muslims, we are taught to have complete trust and reliance in Allah, and this includes having self-respect. Imam Al-Ghazali, also known as Hujjat al-Islam, was a renowned Islamic theologian and philosopher who emphasized the importance of self-respect in one's journey towards self-discovery and enlightenment. He believed that true self-respect comes from recognizing one's own worth and value, not from seeking validation from others. This is beautifully stated in his famous quote, 'Let go of your attachment to the world, for the love of ...

Algazelus's Letter To Self 10.March.2024 Ramadan Day 0 "Reflect on 30 Aspects of Life We Can Improve During this Sacred Month of Ramadan" Assalamu alaykum Dear self, As we enter the holy month of Ramadan, I want to take some time to reflect on 30 aspects of life that we can improve during this blessed time.
