Yes, I do love Allah! - Siham

I knelt to pray but not for long,

I had too much to do.

I had to hurry and get to work

For bills would soon be due.

So I knelt and said a hurried prayer,

And jumped up off my knees.

My Muslim duty was now done

My soul could rest at ease.

All day long I had no time

To spread a word of cheer.

No time to speak of Allah to friends,

They'd laugh at me I'd fear.

No time, no time, too much to do,

That was my constant cry,

No time to give to souls in need

But at last the time, the time to die.

I went before the Lord,

I came, I stood with downcast eyes.

For in his hands God held a book;

It was the book of life.

God looked into his book and said

Your name I cannot find.

I once was going to write it down...

But never found the time"

Funny how simple it is for people to trash ALLAH and

then wonder why the world's going to hell.

Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but

question what ALLAH says.

Funny how everyone wants to go to heaven provided

they do not have to believe, think, say, or do anything

that ALLAH says. (Or is it scary?)

Funny how someone can say "I believe in ALLAH" but

still follow Satan (who, by the way, also "believes" in ALLAH).

Funny how I can be more worried about what other

people think of me than what ALLAH thinks of me.

(Are you thinking?)

Do you love Allah?

Yes , I do!
