My soul is unsettled because my iman is weak
Since birth I’ve claimed the title Mo'min
Now it’s knowledge I seek
God is testing my faith when I discover myself in disarray
My mind is scrambled, my hearts a blaze, and my tongues unleashed
Unyielding emotions do my Ummah a disservice
For fear that my dawah, good intentioned, may lead potential followers astray
I will control things I say
What damage I have done, I must minimize
What my goods have overcome, I must legitimize
While being wary of trying to please the Khafir
They are not loved by Allah, so do not fear being ostracized
They can not harm my deen so I mustn’t antagonize
For only Allah (swt) safeguards
I know who ever searches truth will be guided and those with locked hearts pledge themselves to Iblise
Purity in intention can makes you a vessel
For Only Allah Leads
So I heed the words of a wise sheik and stay silent though my heart yearns to scream
Inshallah if I become learned my mind will warn me to be silent, and then is it my responsibility to speak!
Pray and seek guidance where guidance is given
In the pages of the Quran and in the song of the recited my heart is found
I am assured
What Grace, What Beauty!
Don’t be disturbed by my tears
I am lavishing in all the comforts this earthly world could not provide
