My Sisters


No longer shackled by the oppression

of miniskirts and see-thru shirts,

my sisters stand proud.

Covered by cloth and more so by conviction

submission to Allah, they stand apart from the crowd.

The taunts, the jeers, the stares, the leers

Never fazing or dissuading them from following the deen.

Real women they be, the epitome of femininity

strong, secure, complete human beings.

Not slaves to the world of fashion

which is always askin'

for women to dress in as less as they can.

Their hijab is for the sake of Allah

in imaan and taqwa

they refuse to be objectified by man.

Such are my sisters in Islam.
