My Desperate-Outcry to my Noble-Savior!!!
Oh…Allah!!! My heart is in pain, it hurts. I know that, in your sight, I’m the worse. You have given me my faith, and correct-guidance, while I still rebel. I’m so afraid to meet You, because, I feel that I’ll go straight to Hell. I know that disobeying You is not at all in my… Continue reading

Thanksgiving is all the time, every day!!!
I’m thankful all of the time, not just for Thanksgiving: I’m thankful for Allah turning my heart away from the love & pursuit of the streets.

The Turbulence of Life:
As the sea waves crash during our nights and days. We dwell within our mundane, vesseled hideaways. The torrid and torrent, toil and trial will drive each & all of us off-course. But our navigator must be Allah’s guidance & with Him is the best force. Because it is He who turns our ships: our… Continue reading

My Transition from Boy to Man
I was once a Boy: I used to be a boy. My life was a toy. I would take things lightly, and shun responsibility, but that was clearly in the past. Pursuing the fleeting and worthless pleasures, you think you want, really never last. I used to think of myself as the “ladies’-man”; I arrogantly… Continue reading

My thoughts on negative portrayls of Muhammad (Peace be upon him) inciting violence in the Muslim-World:
The recent attacks on U.S. Embassies in the Muslim-World, mainly in the Mideast, as a result of numerous negative, propaganda, short-films, caricatures, cartoons, pamphlets, novels, books, movies, shows, etc. negatively portraying Muhammad (Peace be upon him), has incited immense violence all across the Muslim-World, particularly, in places like Libya, Sudan, Yemen, and several other Muslim… Continue reading

My thoughts on the word “Nigger”:
Author’s note: People, very often, have asked me why I’m so comfortable with the word “Nigger” being used around me. They just can’t understand, why an African-American would be so “not angry” when this particular word is used. I’ve honestly been thinking about this for a very long time, how to officially throw the word… 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

Question: What is the best way to ensure that you will be respected & loved? Answer: Never give anyone the option to disrespect you or hate you. Ensuring respect is based upon a Prophetic-Statement from Muhammad (Peace be upon him), when he mentioned about the proper conduct that a Muslim must/should have, “The Muslim is… Continue reading
