Cross borders

With the new faces I see..
The little encounters with strangers, that come with everyday life..
I can not express the beauty & awe for the differences & similarities
If only we all could cross borders, cross nations & continents..
If only we opened not only our minds, But our hearts..
Imagine the possibilities that would come forth..
Doors would open...Knowledge & understanding would grow..
Love & compassion can not & should not be restrained to the limitations of "Self"

So very blessed to witness the beauty of His creation..
Ya Rab please continue to humble me... Ameen.

Still

I can remember when it all started,
Was so in love with you.
Hung on every word..

Now,
The clouds have shifted..
The shade's always changing..

Still,
Here we are..
I'm still madly in love
Hung on every step that you make..

Errors

As long as we've got Jannah on our mind... The wrongs that are afflicted on us within' this dunya, big or small, won't hold us back. As long as we continue to cling to the errors, we lose a bit of our better selves.


A.S.

I forgive you.

Somewhere out there
You are standing
Here I am..
Happy to be.

A brief memory
of the surrender in me..
The pain you gave me.
The pain I clung to.

Here I am..
Able to say I forgive you.
In my heart I know..
We all need to grow, sometimes let go.
Why hold back a chance?
I wouldn't wish to hold back a single soul..
Not my greatest enemy.

I seek Allah's Love & Mercy
Just as much for you,
as I would want for myself.

To there where you are..
Here I am saying..

I forgive you.

Ripple In Progress

Life..
Even if it seems like our sincerest of efforts,
make the smallest of ripples..
Or so they appear.
A ripple is still a ripple in progress.

Remember

We should never get so wrapped up with our own lives..
That we neglect others.
Your family members.. Your neighbors.. HUMANITY.
We are all brothers and sisters.
Love & compassion should be without borders.
We are all children under God/Allah Subhan Wa Ta'ala

Let us remember the ripples our actions make..
Whether they be bad or good.

Let us not pray simply for ourselves..
But for others as well.

A.S.

Perfection in His plan

Always amazed by Allah's perfect timing... his perfect planning... The many directions we take on this path, the good & seemingly bad... All in fact Allah's perfection. The puzzle fits into place.... Alhamdulilah, for the very spot we're standing....

Reality

Its sad that a person's insecurity,
can prohibit one from experiencing..
full, mutual, honest & open relationships.

Its sad that one should hold grudges
against one that is simply living & making a life.
That's life.

The paths have widened..
But never was the door shut...
Never was the love held on a condition.

Compassion, love & support is all I've ever given you...
That's what makes your actions,or lack of..
all the more difficult to take..

I love you more than you know.
I love you for the sake of Allah subhan wa ta'ala.
Blood is blood & nothing will change that.

My heart is open, But for now..
I'll stop hurting myself with the mortal reality...
And focus on the spiritual reality....InshAllah.

A.S.

His creation

All Allah's creation should be loved & appreciated...whether it be a street cat to the poor person.. To all living things near or far...this city or that country. To not love all of Allah's creation is to not love Allah himself.... May we never feel we're better than anyone or anything & may we treat all animals and human beings with love and compassion. Ya Rab ameen♥
