Omer Shahid

United we stand divided we fall;
Let's return to Allah, listen to HIS call;

We were sent to this earth with a purpose in hand;
...

Forever with you
Respectable
Ignoring your mistakes
Endorsable
...

Too long have I been afraid;
Too long have I lived in the darkness!
Too long have I followed what others say because my words don't matter to them!
But NOT anymore;
...

O Muslim of today
Full of greed and lust

Have you ever pondered that…
We're all going through rust?
...

I don't know what's up with everyone today;
Calling, texting, emailing, saying 'Happy Mother's Day'
If you really love your mom then stop trying to prove it;
One day to show your love? That's really kind of stupid;
...

So what if life never gave you a chance;
So what if you never got a stage to dance;

Just let the world say that you're wrong;
Just keep on singing your happy song.
...

Trying to do every little good deed,
She'd wake me up for Fajr's Salah (First Prayer of the Day) !
To the teachings of Islam she'd pay true heed;
Seeing her would make me remember Allah!
...

I heard a story, quite odd if you ask;
About a girl who used to wear a cloth as a mask;

After picking up groceries, like on any average day
She went to the counter, asking how much she had to pay
...

Up or down, high or low;
Doesn't matter where you may go;
Know that HE is with you there;
Though HIMSELF HE does not show.
...

Lost and confused, not knowing what to do
They said I wasn't worthy to fit in anyone's shoe

What is this strange place?
...

I am on a journey that is far and long
I know that this isn't where I belong
No matter what you say
I'll stay bold and strong
...

Why do you wear that piece of cloth? They ask;
To us it seems such a difficult task;
If we had to cover ourselves all day;
Hiding our beauty from the world, no way;
...

I don't understand the "Muslims" of today;
Celebrating with joy, the Valentine's Day;
DON'T you understand that it's Shaitaan's (Satan's) way?
Who's ALWAYS trying to lead you astray!
...

For once let your soul wander
On that road seldom taken
They say there's magic on it
For those sleeping, oft awaken
...

We slumber as time passes by
On this strange journey that we're on
Rarely do we wake up and realize
We need to worry about what's going on!
...

We abandoned YOUR book
But please do not leave us
We wronged ourselves
Only YOU can relieve us
...

I trusted them, and hurt I got
What happened was what I hadn't thought

Afraid I got, more, day by day
Things don't just go the way you plan
...

True or not, I won't judge your 'Love'
But know that you're being watched by the One above

At Fajr Salah you're hardly awake
But doing violent protests is a piece of cake
...
