Remembering Allah! I knelt to pray but not for long, I had too much to do. I had to hurry and get to work For bills would soon be due. So I knelt and said a hurried prayer, And jumped up off my knees. My Muslim duty was now done My soul could rest at ease. All day long I had no time To spread a word of cheer. No time to speak of Allah to friends, They'd laugh at me I'd fear. No time, no time, too much to do, That was my constant cry, No time to give to souls in need But at last the time, the time to die. I went before the Lord, I came, I stood with downcast eyes. For in his hands Allah held a book; It was the book of life. Allah looked into his book and said "Your name I cannot find. I once was going to write it down... But never found the time" May we be among those who are favored by our Lord, and may we use the time we have in this temporary dunya in the remembrance of Allah swt.......Ameeen! SubhanAllah, walhamdulillah, wa la-illaha illAllah, wa Allahu akbar Wala howla wala kuwata Illa billa hil aleehil azeem :) [slm] :-) |
