Jennah by Ammar

"Say: ‘Surely my prayer, my sacrifice, my living and my dying are
for Allaah, the Lord of all the worlds.’ ” Qur’aan, 6:162

Allah says...

"It is not befitting for a believing man or woman, when a matter has been decided by Allah and His Messenger, to have any option about their decision." [Soorah al-Ahzaab (33):36]

Amatullah

For one minute I thought I saw the light of freedom
I thought I smelt the sweet grasses of green pastures
Fields of saffron and the wafting perfume of heaven
I heard the heartfelt and joyful laughter of the green birds of paradise
I willed my body forward as I yearned to be of them
My heart fluttered and my eyes watered
My mind washed of worry and grief
For one moment I thought it was the end and I was forever saved
I stretched out my arms and ran towards salvation
Ya Rabb, do what you will with my life, I long to be you
But not yet have I been relieved of this life
Every soul is appointed a time and some trials
Foolishness is to forgo the hereafter for the pleasures of this world
What is more fulfilling than iman entering the heart?
Than the Quran illuminating the soul?
Than receiving the pleasure of Allah and the love of his angels?
May Allah swt love me and increase my love for Him,amen

Scorn

They fall, warming my cheeks
Hot sting of tears on open wounds
Replacing the curse words and severe beatings Id rather give you
I bite my tongue and hold my breath
I fist my clothes and hide in my layer
You've bested me and I have retreated
But my tears don't come cheap
And my Lord will compensate me

Fortunate Is He

Fortunate is he...

Who remembers Allah abundantly.

Worldly distractions cannot mildly sway

His thoughts of Allah and judgement day

Righteous is he

Who bows to One he cannot see

Whose deeds do not spring without Bismillah

Fulfilling his tasks with perfect Taqwa

Devout is he

Who supplicates to Allah intensively

Whose heart is merciful, tender and kind

His gaze on life after, this world behind

Prosperous is he

Who spends his wealth on the poor and needy

Who speaks a kind word to kin and neighbour

Ever-grateful for Allah’s favours

Guided is he

Who prays Salah with punctuality

Early morning, Tahajjud he prays

For Allah's pleasure and nearness he craves

God fearing is he

Who contemplates death early

Who starts as he sees his demise

And tears fall over wasted sacrifice

Blessed is he

Who sings Allah’s praises fervently

Blessed be all of Allah’s slaves

Allah’s mercy be with them always

Things I want the most

I want to go to the highest level of Jennah
Where I can speak with my Lord 
Where I can sit in the best circles
I want a beautiful garden that contains beauty no one could imagine
Where I can rest my heart forever
I want my family and friends to be there with me
I want the ummah of Mohammed saw to achieve the highest stations
I love them and it would distress me to have harm come to even the worst of them
I want my beloved to have everything his heart desires
I want my heart to desire goodness 
I want health and wealth for my kin and I
I want justice and peace
But most of all I want to be Muslim until the day I die
Ameen

If wishing could make it so

I wish the wind would blow and, in pieces, I would with it go
I wish my heart were encased in ice and made of stone
A sculpture to glorify love but devoid of the ability
Safe but deprived
I wish to die to fly above the seven skies
True freedom from the oppressions of mortal strife
Sleep sound and dream of golden crickets and silver butterflies 
I wish to only be visible in dimming light
In the night, light up like fireflies
Captivating sleepless eyes
Oh God, Let the sunlight be my disguise
Only with the moon will I rise 

For those who fancy fire

I am in love .
He is unaware.
If I inform him of what is in my heart.
I will steal his peace with my war.
You must understand that I love with fire
and fight with ice.
Unintentionally destroying with both.
