Poem for Hijabis...

And nicely sang by this Lebanese guy. I still dont know his name or is he a singer or not. But he got an amazing voice I must say. 






This is a classic poem by Sheikh Ahmed bin Ali Al-Ajmy and this guy sang it in his own version. Nice...


The Translation:
My sister in God, dont let the devil mislead you
The hijab (veil) is obligatory, from our kind Lord
Our sister, we have heard something strange
People have uttered unworthy talk about the Hijab
They said it is a tent, hung over the necks (of women)
They called for the liberation of women; and they wrote books for it
They drew out a road to immorality; so as to 'not waste' the young men
O our sister, this is the howl of offense from the wolves
So Hell-fire is the home of oppressors; for them is the punishment
God will reveal justice on the day of judgement
And Jannah is the home, and what a beautiful welcome back it is!


The good is from Allah, the bad is from my own mistakes.


Ilal Liqaa'...!!

You...

It might be fated that we are going through what we are going through now.... I don't regret knowing you... It has been smooth-sailing so far... And by far, I've known quite a bit lot about you... I'm happy when I see you. I'm happy when I talk to you... And I thank Allah for this wonderful phase..

I don't know how far this will go... And that's the worrying part... I'm afraid of thinking how far this will go... If it really goes as far as what you and me are thinking of, are we able to go through it? It's not going to be easy. I know we are supposed to think of the best, not the worst, but still one's got to be practical. Life is not only a bed of roses, it comes with thorns too...

Although I wouldnt want to lose you, I will take it slow. I will try my level best to change your mind about the whole thing... I will want you to really weigh the pros and cons and then make a decision. I dont want you to come to a conclusion so early... Too much for you to decide about, and for me to worry about...

It's not the challenge that Im worried about, I'm just worried for you. I will still be here with my family backing me if anything does happen. It's you, who has to make the bigger decision.

Like I said, let's take it slow. If Im able to change your mind, all the better. But, if this is fated for us, let's raise our hands and make du'a that however rocky the road will be in the future, we'll go through it together, with patience and honour.

Ilal Liqaa...
