Rock on Hijabee

[Blessed]

Salaams,

 

I've been exposed to some sweet sisterhood lately. Complete strangers caring for my wellbeing. So I share this with you. Keep the sisterhood alive, where ever you are

 

 

 

Rock On Hijabee

I saw her on the corner

 

Waiting on the bus

 

While the first drops of rain

 

Dropped from the sky

 

No umbrella

 

Did she have

 

And neither did I

 

I was late for work

 

But I couldn’t just keep walking

 

And not stop by to

 

Wave or at least blink

 

My eyes

 

The ties

 

We share can’t be explained

 

I don’t even know her name

 

But when

 

I look to her

 

I see me

 

 

 

Rock on Hijabee

 

 

 

Downtown after ten

 

I got caught in a jam

 

Cars crammed

 

And I knew I wouldn’t

 

Make it to my destination

 

As planned

 

Anger ran

 

Through me wild

 

It was my child who saw her

 

Sitting in the car

 

Not far at all

 

Heads nodded

 

Smiles received

 

A cooling sensation descended upon me

 

The ties

 

We share can’t be explained

 

I don’t even know her name

 

But when I look to her

 

I see me

 

 

 

Rock on Hijabee

 

 

 

Lost in a building

 

Full of careless stares

 

My feelings were rare-

 

Out of place and not at all safe

 

I quicken my pace

 

Hoping to get where I

 

Need to be

 

Instead

 

She caught me

 

And then lead

 

The way

 

Troubles forgotten

 

My day

 

Eased by the

 

Kindness she displayed

 

The ties

 

We share can’t be explained

 

I don’t even know her name

 

But when

 

I look to her

 

I see me

Since we're on the topic

 

Do any of you find Somali sisters (not all but a significant majority) stand offish. In the street, at school even in the masjid.

 

I honestly think that Somali girls need to work on this. I went to an Islamic conference today; and all were sweet and loving...except the Cambaros, why are we so unfriendly? I thought, I was the only one; till my sister commented on how the Somali girls don't respond to the Salaam.

 

Do any of the Nomads now what I’m talking about?

 

 

 

Raula,

*snif, snif* Sweetie, am so touched. Me loves you too

^^^OH MY GAWED..I feel the same walahi.

 

I use to say salaam to every muslim sister I see on the street (no somalis in my area) and they would just ignore me or look away.

 

THen I stopped. ITs sad really.

[Qac Qaac]

don't stop sister, the angles would reply back.. which 100 times better than that person replying back to u..

[SomeAlien]
