Seven things about me
What is TAQWA?
Posted on: October 2, 2018
Taqwa is not only about manners. Taqwa is not about looking Islamic…
Taqwa is not about sporting a beard or wearing a hijab…
Taqwa is about appearance
BUT
Taqwa is when I miss a prayer, and feel uneasy the whole day..
Taqwa is when I speak a lie I feel bad
Taqwa is the guilt that follows when me hurt someone knowingly or unknowingly.
Taqwa is the shame and regret that follows a sin I committed knowing full well how it stands in the sight of Allah
Taqwa is when I cannot sleep after disobeying or disrespecting my parents.
Taqwa is to cry in the depths of night fear in none but the one above the Heavens
Taqwa is the fear that refrains us from sinning when nobody familiar is around
Taqwa is the guts and the will to please Allah, even when the whole is hell bent on displeasing Him
Taqwa is to wear the beard/ hijab for the sole reason of pleasing our Creator and to keep it on as per sunnah
Taqwa is to stay happy and smiling knowing that this world is a prison for believers
Taqwa is the good manners and character we practice for the sake of Allah
Taqwa is the struggle for better ourselves according to Islam, with each passing day
Taqwa is not just rising in deen, but about falling, falling, rising again and never lettingo
WORDS———-
“The word Socrates and the word Jesus
Are my creation, I’m their creation”
These are initial, eternal, and dwellings
They’re the eras
They pass all through in brain waves
from one soul to another soul
They’re the realness of epoch, and sham too
Symbol of anguish, and the remedy too
Regardless of color, caste, faith and belief
They’re supreme of lords and lands
They flow in veins like blood
and present on each lingo
They’re sham they’re pretense,
they’re war they’re peace;
All these are their constraints
Without them life is apprehensive
Every action is motionless
incapable to speak , unable to hear
Each mirror mutely amazed on its reflections
fretfulness is the sight
allowing to witness but deprive to utter
Loveliness worthless so is love futile
All emotions, islands of wisdom, and gentle winds
are but, mirage and illusions, clout and doubt
These words are tool that give shape to ideas
Ideas when released from hand and pen
then the words converse
They’re are artistes, they’re the painters, musicians
poets, they’re the voice. they’re the prophets
they’re the sovereign—-
they’re creators-
they wish to me upraise my wisdom
Come down from summit for God’s sake
Face the realities of life for God’s sake
Is vitalizing self-image a worh for life?
Its commendable to give up self value;
Before your tears vanish into the mud
Light a lamp of resilience, for God’s sake
Had you been crushed and are hopeless
Rise and make thy fate liven with verve
The ones who grasp you around as snakes
Run off from those good-looking damsels
The kick of your foot had left a message for you
Must try to bring back the time you’ve wasted
Before being ridiculed and mocked by others
Laugh at you follies thyself sooner than; others

The Roses of Saadi
Posted on: July 21, 2018
English translation of Les roses de Saadi by Marceline Desbordes-Valmore
– Les Roses de Saadi is one of the most known works of Marceline Desbordes-Valmore and was published posthumously in 1860. Short, sweet, and somewhat nostalgic, it is up to the reader to decide if it is a love poem or not, or if should be taken for its obvious interpretation or to look for hidden meanings.
The Roses of Saadi
I wanted to bring you roses this morning;
But I had closed so many in my sash
That the knots were too tight to contain them.The knots split.
The roses blew away.
All blew off to the sea, borne by the wind,
Carried to the water, never to return.
The waves looked red as if inflamed.
Tonight, my dress is still perfumed.
Breathe in the fragrant memory.

Tomorrow, at dawn Tomorrow, at dawn, at the hour when the countryside whitens, I will depart. You see, I know you wait for me. I will go through the forest and over the mountains. I cannot stay far from you any longer.
I will trudge on, my eyes fixed on my thoughts, Ignoring everything around me, without hearing a sound,
Alone, unknown, back stooped, hands crossed,
Saddened, and the day will be like night for me.
I will neither see the golden glow of the falling evening,
Nor the sails going down to Harfleur in the distance,
And when I arrive, I will place on your tomb
A bouquet of green holly and flowering heather.
Why to make reality a mirage
Posted on: July 15, 2018
Why to make reality a mirage
Why to make life miserable
When beauty is no problem
Why take no notice of allure
Why lay to rest the desires
Why to hold close solitude
When moral fiber is revealed
Why to mask body and veiled
Living among scorn and thorns
Why act and live and like roses
If life is to blow your own horn
Why expect prize and be forlorn
When life is for a moment or two
Why plan for myriad epoch so?

Reality of Nature

Reality of Nature
O Lord! the world seems to be stagnant
Still, inactive, motionless and dormant
Actually, this is not the reality!
O Lord! reveal to me the world
that isn’t at all stagnant
that it is not dumb and deaf
but, It is lively and vibrant!
Thou created me out of dust
Thus I’ve the right on my dust
Lord! make known the reality
of life of each particle of dust
Thou asked Moses to throw his staff
into water; so water ripped apart
Thou empowered Solomon of winds
Thou asked the moon to split into two
As Thy most dear Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.w)
wished to be!
When the Prophet Abraham
was thrown into blazing fire
The fire turned into fresh flowers
As the Prophet was on right path;
O divine Lord!
every speck of the entire Universe
has ears, eyes, sense
and speak and follow Thy orders
Most merciful and gracious Lord!
enable me to see Thy heavens
in this mortal world or hereafter

کائنات کی حقیقت
اے میرے رب
دنیا بظاہر منجمد نظر آتی ہے ٹھہری ہوئ ساکت اور جامد
مگر ایسا نہیں ہے
میرے ما لک مجھے دنیا کا وہ رخ بھی دکھانا جہاں
یہ دنیا ساکت و جامد نہیں گونگی و بہری نہیں۔
مولا تو نے مجھے مٹی سے پیدا کیا اس لئے اس مٹی
پر میرا حق ہے۔۔۔مالک یہاں کے
ذرے ذرے کا راز مجھ پر آشکار کردے۔کیونکہ جب
تو نے حضرت موسی کو حکم دیا کہ پانی میں اپنا عصاء
پھینک دو تو پانی کا سینہ چاک ہو گیا
جب تو نے حضرت سلیمان کے تابع ہواوں کو کیا تو وہ انکے
قابو ہوگئیں
پھر تو نے چاند کو اپنے حبیب محمد کے اشارے پر شق
ہونے کہا تو وہ دونیم ہو گیا
اور جب حضرت ابراہیم کو آگ میں پھینکا گیا تو تیرے
اشارے پر وہ گلزار ہوگی
میرے آقا تیری کائینات چیخ چیخ کر کہہ رہی ہے کہ وہ سن
سکتی ہے بول سکتی ہے حرکت کر سکتی ہے
تیرا حکم بجا لا سکتی ہے
حالانکہ ہم اسے منجمد،ساکت،اور بے جان سمجھتے ہیں
اے رب مجھے تیری کائنات کا یہ رخ ضرور دکھانا چاہے اس
دنیا میں ممکن ہو یا اس دنیا میں کیونکہ تمھارے
اشارے بہت واضح ہیں۔۔
آمین
رضیہ سبحان
