A Way To Freedom Poem by Aqeb Benazir Ibn Minar

A Way To Freedom

Rating: 4.7


Introduction: *A Piece for Islam*...Skins will olden, but souls will revive. Only if we believe and survive.


Islam is the way to freedom,
It's my pass to Thy Kingdom
My Taqwa, my Ibadah, my Tawbah
I shall never abandon

In this month I wear a vest
Where In pockets live the best,
Thy mercy is only I seek
My humble one request.

This rainfall, Thou bestowed Thy bliss
Upon our souls and bravura trees,
It's everything a Muslim as I
Should need to spend within my Deen.

Ya Rahman! Ya Rahim!
Ya Allah! My Allah!
Only to Thee I submit,
Only in Thee I believe.

At hours of darkness I prostrate
Thus every day Thy grant and heal
The scars I bear in fights for You,
To You my faith is beyond surreal

The struggle I admire to bear
It pulls me towards You so near,
In this month I share and care,
I won't wipe off my stream of tears

In the Night of Power,
In Laylat al-Qadr,
I cry for Thy forgiveness
I pray for Thy guidance.

O' Allah! O' Redeemer!
To Thee I do surrender,
My life in Thy presence it shines, I breathe so brightly; I survive
As long as I'm alive this way, Inshallah I pray I’ll do just fine.

Beautiful poem about a beautiful religion 'Islam'. Your love for Allah is so obvious. May Allah bless you and all the Muslims. You talked about 'Ramadan' too and 'Laylat El-Qadr' which is better than 1000 months as said in 'The Holy Quraan'. I'm so proud of you and all Muslims should be proud too. I say ' I'm a Muslim, and I'm proud'. Excellent poem..

Your poems always leave me so amazed (: you were right about me not understanding all of it haha, but it is still beautiful regardless. Your faith is so pronounced here, with such strong emotion. It's amazing how devoted people can be to the Almighty (: religious poetry is truely the strongest kind, since there are never enough words to describe our faith and love for the Almighty, even if there are some differences in religion from one person to the next. You know you're doin something right when you can write poetry that can touch people of all religions, races, social status, age, and anything else that makes humans who they are (: purely amazing. Keep it up my friend: D and don't forget to notify me when you write a new poem hahah.
