My thoughts on the Pursuit of Materialism:

[wpvideo wPaAKct0] Absolute Materialism: From fancy cars, to racks on racks. From Heroin, to Cocaine & Crack. We have such a dangerous, pathological thirst for things. There’s just a destructive path and it never ceases. There seems to be no cure for this deadly disease. It’s like we’re paralyzed, by the venom of serpent stings. Continue reading

My Cocoon-Diaries Part II:

Author’s note: My Cocoon-Diaries are poems and/or general writings which contain self-reflections for me, how I’ve been living & how I should’ve not been living, over a significant portion of time that I’ve taken to limit my social-spheres & social-interactions. It’s been a time for me to dig deep within myself, to wrap myself up Continue reading

My thoughts on Muhammad, the Beloved of Allah (Peace be upon him):

Author’s note: I purposely chose to release this poem after the Islamic month of Rabi`ul-Awwal, which has just past, because of people celebrating the birthday of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him), during that particular month, which is a religiously innovated practice, which I personally did not want to partake in anyway. However, since this Continue reading

My thoughts on the victims of the global water-crisis:

Author’s note: The following poem is based upon the trials & perils of life that some of the most victimized individuals in this global water-crisis are: Children. They suffer the highest consequences of this water-crisis & usually are the last to get help. These same children whom are often the first casualties of this water-crisis, Continue reading

My thoughts on my Father:

Author’s note: I know how much having a father has been important in my life, regardless of the fact that he wasn’t even a Muslim & died when I was very young. I thought that it would be good to just share this importance to you all-I’m often left thinking, to myself, that if my Continue reading

My thoughts on what Allah sees:

Author’s note: It’s very important that we (regardless to whether you’re a Muslim or Non-Muslim) reflect upon what the Creator of the Universe sees us saying and doing, as well as what He sees within our minds & hearts. Most of us just live our lives with only minimal to no reflection of how we’re Continue reading

My thoughts on Feminism (The hatred & disrespect of Men):

Author’s note: Since I’ve already written a poem about Misogyny, it’s just as fair to write one about Feminism as well. Feminism, as we know it to be has been incepted to be an alternative for women to Misogyny, to combat Misogyny even. However, unfortunately, it has begun to cause the same ill-affects that Misogyny Continue reading

My thoughts on Water: Part II (The Poem):

Author’s note: This is part two, of the two-part series that I’ve presented, about the Water-Crisis & our obligation as those who can make a serious difference to do something about it.

My thoughts on 2012:

Author’s note: In light of all of the anxiety surrounding 2012, with all of the Sci-Fi movies that have come out, all of the documentaries, and Nostradamus-type prophecies about the end of the world, begin in the year 2012, I’ve decided to put everyone’s heart at ease, by reminding all of us that Allah, the Continue reading
