Tears, stress, concern What does this world bring me? Do I find in it peace? Or even comfort maybe? If only it was such! Then I would have loved to dwell in it. But my heart desires that not, For each day reminds me of something greater, Something greater I have been created for, Not this world which is my abode, Temporarily of course, This world which distracts me, And misleads me to a path, Which pleases not my Lord, nor my soul, This world which holds me by my hand, And asks me to follow it, This world which shows me things of amazement, In temptation to woo me, This world which wants me to fall, Head over heels, weak at my knees, in awe of it, This world which wants me to love it, to give it my heart, To devote my heart and soul to it, This world which intends to break me, To make a fool of me through my weaknesses, But this world doesn't make me happy, So how can I be so naive? How can I submit to it? Now I'm returning on my heels, Turning back to that something, Something greater I had been created for, Because there I will find Him (Allah), And that's all I've ever wanted, So I'm sorry world, If you feel offended, I'm just not yours to keep, I was loaned to you by Him (Allah), And every night you made me weep. Thus I'm in such a hurry, To flee from your clutch, I know I make out like you're a monster, But really that's just me, For I ruin all that I touch. So the longer I stay in your arms, Your content I shall destroy, Even if they were also loaned to you, But truly we will return beneath your soil, And I never belonged to you to begin with. This separation was destined long before we were created. So let me return to Him (Allah) Happy, calm and serene. #islam #muslimah #niqabi #repost #daughterofislam #love #heart #poem #gemsofjannah #beautiful #ukhtihood #dunya #world #peace #pray #sallah #islamireminder #follow by daughter.of.islam
