Sleepy Ummah

Sleepy Ummah
As Bosnia was bleeding we pretended that it was nothin.

Did we really think that solution was the snooze button?
The buzzer rang again, but we still didn’t wake,

We plugged our ears and acted as if it was fake.
The bombs keep dropping, the buzzer kept ringing,

“Come on man, shut up, I’m busy sleeping!”
Then Kosova came and not much was said,

“Could you be quiet, man I’m still in bed!”
Our brothers were killed right under our nose,

“Hey man, could you shut up, I’m trying to doze!”
When our sisters got raped, did we even feel lousy?

“Come on dude, shut up, I’m still feeling drowsy!”
The buzzer keep ringing and we just gave out a sigh,

“Man, do you ever shut up, I’m trying to get some shut-eye?”
Now there is Russia, who is terrorizing us some more,

But what are we doing besides letting out a snore?
The Kufar keep coming, they’re trying to put out the light of our deen,

“Aw man, I’m trying to sleep, be quiet, quit being mean!”
What could happen next, what could be seen?

“Come on Masood, be quiet, I was having a sweet dream!”

Letter To Allah

Dear Allah,

You know me better than I know myself.

You are closer to me than any one else.

You know every breath I breathe and every sneeze I sneeze

You know my entire rizq and my life and my death

There is nothing hidden nothing secret from you

But ya Allah, I just want to enter those gates so everything can be worth it,

 Just need to get Home back to You.

Sometimes I just want to leave every single rope I’m connected to

I want to sometimes just leave and go far away in an empty place, barren, where I can just breathe

Where I can sit and stare at the stars,

Silence, away from every worry and task

Just to reflect on every blessings, on my journey, on You

But we weren’t made to have fun, we weren’t made to sit

If I searched for rest here, it would be fruitless

Rest and peace, and happiness and eternity belongs with You

So ya Allah,, we are all just toiling and it makes me think…

“Imam Ahmad was asked, 

“When is there rest?” 

He answered, 

“When you put your foot in Paradise you will find rest.”

Ya Allah,, just let me enter those

Ya Allah 

Ya Allah,

Make me an ambassador of Thy PEACE,

That where there is hatred,

I may bring Thy LOVE;

That where there is error,

I may bring Thy TRUTH;

That where there is doubt,

I may bring Thy FAITH;

That where there is despair,

I may bring Thy HOPE;

That where there are shadows,

I may bring Thy LIGHT;

That where there is sadness,

I may bring Thy JOY.

Ameen

Hijab (Veil)

Dear sisters,
Why do you hate me?
Why are you rejecting me?!
Don’t you know?
I am your protector from evil glances of strangers
I am your defender against eager eyes of men
I am here in this Dunya to protect you
Why are you treating me as if I am a burden for you?
Your Lord honored you with me
He raised your status through me
I am your chastity, I am your modesty
Listen to me carefully…
You will remember my words when you will be standing in front of Allah on Judgment Day
And you will wish to return to Dunya to find me
But you won’t… it will be too late”

Yours respectfully ,
Hijab (veil) =

Oh Allah

Oh ALLAH,

I have no money,

But I have You.

I am rich.

Oh ALLAH,

I have no freedom,

But I believe in You.

I am free.
Oh ALLAH,

I have no patience,

But I read Your Quran.

I am calm.

Oh ALLAH,

I get no respect,

But You listen to my dua.

I am proud.

Oh ALLAH,

I have no time,

But I think of Jannah.

I have forever.

Oh ALLAH,

I have much time,

But I look at Your Signs.

I have today.

Oh ALLAH,

I feel so weak,

But I fast Ramadan.

I am strong.

Oh ALLAH,

I feel so tired,

But I make dua.

I open my eyes.

Oh ALLAH,

I feel so dirty,

But I repent to You.

I am cleansed.

Oh ALLAH,

I feel so depressed,

But I remember you.

I am at peace.

Oh ALLAH,

I feel so lost,

But I follow Your Commands.

I am safe.

Oh ALLAH,

Nobody listens,

But You never turn your back on me.

I am grateful.

Oh ALLAH,

My heart breaks,

But I imagine meeting You.

My heart finds rest.

Oh ALLAH,

I cry every night,

But I make wudu.

I wash away my tears.

Oh ALLAH,

I feel so alone,

But I pray to You.

I have everything

Amen

Email From  A sister Asking  Questions About Bipolar 

As salaamu alaikum sister

I read your post about love hurts, then read the title of your blog, and read a couple posts in relation to depression I just want to ask a few questions because I would like to know more:

  • what does it feel like from day to day to have bi-polar disorder?
  • how do you cope?
  • does it help to have support around you?
  • what is your diet like?
  • have you changed your diet to see how your mood has changed as well?

Jazakhallah khair
May Allah help ease your pain ameen.

Wa alikum salam Sister 
I have answered the questions in the order you wrote them if you have any more questions feel free to ask away
Depends on the day some days are good other days are a real struggle just to get out of bed and get dressed
One day at a time some days just one minute at a time
Yes it does help to have support but sometimes even with support I still struggle 
Very wholesome lots of fresh cooked meals and whole foods try to stay away from processed and junk foods 
By cutting out dyes and addtives it has helped my skin issues not really helped my mood that I’ve noticed
