Green Birds



In the depths of despair
you've been damaged
your mind and body a jail for your believing soul
Your brothers and sisters have abandoned you but
Be patient
Allah is with the patient
What allie is greater?
What friend is more valuable than the one you have believer?
Sing these honorable verses often to remember, believer
Verily in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest
Remember that you are a stranger to this world
Glad tidings to the strangers
Glad tidings believer
Your deeds are with Allah swt and He does not waste rewards
Allah is ever aware of what we do
So do not let shaitan tempt you to stand beside your enemy on yomul qiyama
You will be compensated
May Allah strengthen your iman and make you mujahid, amen

I am finished with this life

I am finished with this life and its people

They are not of me and I am not of them

They are repulsed with me and I turned off of them

I tried to find my way in their way, instead found myself astray

They only take from me and scoff when I am in need

I will not deny their taking even though I know their greed

I only deny my need because I seek refugee from greed

Again and again I am humbled

Fooled by my reliance on man and earth

Foolishness that had me forget thankfulness

Depriving me of bounty meant for me

Enough already, I am finished with this life

I seek refugee from the evil in it

If I knew my place was secure I would end my bonds with this life

I have no such promise from my Lord

So I hold on and pray for ease in good deeds

Hasten the the acts of righteousness in hopes that they will overcome

So when the unseen are in plain sight I will be pleased

So insha'Allah I may be of those whose desires are fulfilled

Of those who are pleased with Allah as their lord

Of those privileged to hear that Allah is pleased with them
