A
Monument of beauty
The character of
the pious Muslim is something beautiful. This poem contains a
description of some of the qualities that a true Muslim should
bear. May Allah bless us to be counted among such characters.
A monument of
beauty you stand
Gentleness and
justice extend from your hands
Hands raised in
prayer
Your eyes know no
fear
Small children
play at your feet
Open handed kindness
which none can beat
Eyes that see through
the shallow smiles
A mind that knows
man's tricks and wiles
There can be no
success without defeat
Overcoming one's
lusts and desires
Until all that
remains is a love and fear that ever burns
Seeking the
pleasure of its Lord - for this alone it yearns
I'll stand beside
you as long as you dare
To treat evil as
falsehood and keep to the truth - so rare
I'll not betray you
as long as your soul
Stands firm on
goodness and Allah is your goal.
