Character Assasination
May 30, 2008

(A brother writes in regards to the situation…)

You have always meant good, dealt honestly with friends and family, somehow, you have always been misunderstood, making you even more frustrated. You’ve always felt that ” you know them, but they dont know you” but your day in court is due, but may not be in this lifetime!Word goes [...]

Justice
May 23, 2008

Justice:
 
He said, freedom is between the finger and the trigger
Between the mind and the soul,
So I asked, what is Justice
Is it avoiding payments of zakat in order to purchase the latest Lexus
Oppressing the poor, spreading corruption and acting reckless
He said, don’t be foolish
Such statements will be taken out of contents
Justice is free from false [...]

Set me Free!
May 16, 2008

Set me free to leave the land of immorality,
Before I burst and become a menace to society
Suicidal thoughts feed the body like the Range Rover is fed by gasoline
Confusion graspes their minds as to why many posses extreme views from world issues
Fear firm in their hearts so they keep the soldiers of Allah close in [...]

My evil deeds bring about worry to appear in my eyes
Yet my [...]

He was performing prayer alhamdulilah but his eyes wondered left and right while his body shifted with each glance. His attention span for the prayer was weak. Indeed, one look at him and you would conclude he was lacking that sweet [...]

Courage: Something of the Past
May 4, 2008

Glad tidings be to the believers who stand firm during the hardships of the life of this world.
Glad tidings be to the men who defend life with dignity and don’t lend an ear to the blame of the blamers.
Would it be fair for me to ask, what happened to courage? Has it become something of the [...]

My Fear of Marriage
May 2, 2008

If you know anything about me, you’ll know that I promote marriage. I encourage it and speak out against those who dedicate their efforts to discourage others from taking such a fulfilling step closer to Allah. Since the Ramadan of 2005, I’ve been heavily campaigning for marriage, jumping from one circle of brothers to another, [...]
