| [slm] A member of the izlamik mailing list sent this out and subhanAllah, it's very powerful...it reflects my state and what I'm going through, so it had a very personal meaning for me......did it affect you? if so, in what way(s)? My sins block my du'a As I sit here alone, the tears rolling down my face It is not salt, but pain that I taste So I leave now to go stand before You I am helpless and alone, what else can I do? I have asked, I have begged but my sins block my du'a I will come now still begging, forgive me O Allah Forgive me and grant me what it is that I ask For me it is impossible but for You a simple task I try and I try but I do not succeed But I understand and know it is because Your Words I do not heed I hear, yes I hear but I do not always obey Perhaps that is why I am destitute, isolated and why You have written that I will be alone this way I have no to blame but the person in the mirror I see No one else must pay for my sins, no one else, no one else, no one else but me So I stand before You to again beg forgiveness because You said that I can You have told us in Your Book that You are Ar Rahman I will ask, I will beg but my sins my block my du'a But I will keep asking, forgive me O Allah [wlm] Betul |

| [slm] Awesome poem. Almost perfectly sums up my condition...sometimes during my du'a, I feel like a 4 year old kid who knows she has done something wrong, and is just getting around to admitting it. I wish there was a "Idiot's Guide: How to be Grateful" somewhere out there :) Wasalaam. |
