Oh what do you see in me? Wearing the hijab is it the colour of my skin? is it what race i am? is it my 'out-of-fashion' clothes? Oh brother You with your western suit why do you not bother to say salam Why do you look away just because i am your sister in islam? just because i wear what God has asked me to wear? oh Sister i saw you with your little son you saw me but why do you not say salam? why do you look away why do you not say anything aren't we sisters in islam? aren't we one blood in islam why do you look away why do you feel ashamed love me as I love you we are sisters.. we are brothers please do not forget that we aim to please Allah the Exalted.. the Most Merciful Would you not agree that we need to work on our sisterhood and brotherhood? would you not agree that Prophet Muhammad [saw] told us to unite .. so we'll be strong? Please be proud ..be proud that you are a Muslim For you are the Ummah that Allah has given His blessings and approval to |

[slm] "Oh brother You with your western suit why do you not bother to say salam" Sister An, do you think that muslim men should say salam to you each time they see you? Even strangers? [wlm] Aadam |

[slm] Mashallah this is very beautifully written poem - and Bro, Salaam in Islam is not limited to one who we know, its for Whole Ummah. Sister or brother, whether you know that person or not - so if you pass by a Muslim brother or sister you have to say Salaam - whether you get a reply or not . You have to seek peace and blessings for your brother and sisters in Islam ----- m.u.s.a.f.i.r ------ |
