Poem: Not Afraid Of Seeming Strange


💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 It's wondrous, MashaAllah, how she's among the few
Who continues to serve Allah with firm gratitude
And patience, regardless of what her critics say/do,
Unafraid of seeming weird, strange and misunderstood.
~*~
Just coz she stands out from crowds doesn't mean she's confused.
With trust in Allah, she's content sticking to the Truth,
Supporting the Sunnah which is valued by just few.
To back out from Allah's Way is something she'll refuse.
~*~
While numbers dream of being famous on Instagram,
Snapchat, Twitter, TikTok, this one aims to understand
Better about Allah's Rights, her duties and Islam,
Through authentic sources, the Sunnah, and the Qur'an.
~*~
While most women obsess over make-up and fashion,
She values the hijab and prefers simple clothing.
While many would indulge in showbiz and gossiping,
She gains energy through Dhikr and Qur'an reading.
~*~
While countless sleep or go clubbing late in the evenings,
This one's up praying, supplicating or researching
More about Islam and facts so her faith is strengthened.
Tahajjud doesn't exhaust her but it enlightens.
~*~
Haters' criticism can't lead her to depression.
Instead each insult makes her stronger and more patient.
Solitude at times is a gift she gladly welcomes,
A chance to say Du'a then rest with self-reflection.
~*~
Like a stranger, she's not bothered about fitting in.
A traveler, with Jannah as her destination,
She keeps striving to please Allah with perseverance,
Indifferent to people's contempt and opinions.
~*~
📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Islam began as something strange and it will return to being strange, so blessed are the strangers."
