I am a Muslim woman

Recommended Posts

I am a Muslim woman

Feel free to ask me why

When I walk,

I walk with dignity

When I speak

I do not lie

 

I am a Muslim woman

Not all of me you'll see

But what you should appreciate

Is that the choice I make is free

 

I'm not plagued with depression

I'm neither cheated nor abused

I don't envy other women

And I'm certainly not confused

 

Note, I speak perfect English

Et un petit peu de Francais aussi

I'm majoring in Linguistics

So you need not speak slowly

 

I run my own small business

Every cent I earn is mine

I drive my Chevy to school & work

And no, that's not a crime!

 

You often stare as I walk by

You don't understand my veil

But peace and power I have found

As I am equal to any male!

 

I am a Muslim woman

So please don't pity me

For God has guided me to truth

And now I'm finally free!

I'm here to share with you A nice poem about Muslim Sister's .. here It comes.

 

Thanks I will show,

to gratefully let you know,

how good a friend you've been to me.

Made in near perfection,

so in words I show affection,

to the one who helped set my faith free.

 

How to describe,

such a one as you?

who held out a helping hand,

and helped me find what is true.

 

To have shown,

one who's never known,

how to live purely, such a one is she.

Shows one kind,

to help one faith-blind,

for the first time to be able to truly see!

 

Best wishes to you,

soon to be connected,

to a soul-mate true,

a man who has in him your goodness reflected!

 

Now to happiness you go,

but before I must let you know,

although I feared this day,

I knew it was always eventually coming,

and to your love you would be running,

so I am happy for you and face it with little dismay.

 

So please accept,

I would like to give a hearty cheer,

to one who will soon be overseas but not forgotten,

Riffat our friendship I will always hold dear.

SaLaaMz,

 

MashaALLah girLs-superb.

 

Here is a LittLe something i found:

 

You wonder what my shade is,

What it represents.

Call me anything;

An extremist, a fundamentalist,

Anything you desire.

I don't care.

My shade is

My protection

from this evil world,

from roaming eyes,

from diseased hearts.

Call me anything;

Vain or

Submissive.

don't care.

My shade is

My Protection

of my beauty,

reserved for one

special gift

that God has given me;

My Life Partner.

This world

is but a fleeting moment

about to end

at Any Time.

The Signs are here.

The Day of Judgement is coming.

No one will enter my grave with me except

My body, my heart, my soul.

Call me a pessimist,

Distressed,

Repressed,

Oppressed,

I don't care.

My shade

Covers me

Like a tree from the sun;

Like a coat of wax

on your shiny new sportscar.

My shade

My protection,

is my Khimaar,

I am a woman of Islaam

thanks muslim sis for sharing it with us

one of my fav peoms

The Scarf

By: Nura Alia Hossainzadeh

 

They stand there with shorts, so short, excessively short,

shorts that so deceptively capture from them all they know

of modesty...

 

...and I proudly pull my scarf over my hair

 

They stand there, face lost in a sea of make-up,

make-up that so ruthlessly captures from them all they know

of freedom...

 

...and I proudly pull my scarf over my hair

 

They stand there, hair raining with gels, colors -

chemicals that so menacingly capture from them all they know

of purity...

 

...and I proudly pull my scarf over my hair

 

They stand there, so close, so very close to their "lover",

devoted to them, the devotion that so mercilessly captures

from them all they know of individuality...

 

...and I proudly pull my scarf over my hair

 

And they stand there, talking of getting new shorts, new gels

and colors, new boyfriends, materialistic things

that so wrongfully capture from them all they know

of God and love...

 

...and I proudly pull my scarf over my hair

 

For my scarf is my protector, my lover, my devotion,

my pureness, my beauty, my rememberance of God,

 

And I proudly pull it over my hair knowing that when I wear it,

I so rightfully thrust away all the things that the devil

brought about,

 

And when I put it on, I am

 

Free...

Pity me not

For the clothes I wear

Nor for the scarve

That covers my hair

 

Pity me not

For my black garb

My modest air

My humble heart.

 

Pity me not

For my lack of speech

B/c my silent voice

Can always find a heart to reach.

 

Pity me not

For my Muslim name

It is the sign of my honor

And the badge of my fame.

 

Pity me not

And call me oppressed

B/c from society's norms

I'm differently dressed.

 

Pity me not

But try to understand

That I love my religion

And I'm proud of who I am!

 

Pity me not

For following the divine way

But pity those

Who have been led astray.
