My thoughts on MLK, Jr. and the “MLK-Legacy”:
What can I say to ever give justice to this man? Nothing. Himself, along with countless individuals, of all creeds, ethnicities, nationalities, genders & political-orientations, led the world towards a global fight to end tyranny & injustice. Many of his efforts have been duly highlighted in the annals of American & World-History, which is why… 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. Water is Vital: We’re all in need of this blessing, regardless of our religions, ethnicities, genders and ages. Acquisition of this precious resource… Continue reading

My thoughts on Water: Part I (The article):
In the name of Allah, the Source of Mercy, the Most-Merciful: Author’s note: Unlike my other articles, I didn’t write this all by myself. This article before you is the compilation of a great team of individuals (Khadeejah Bari, Sarah El-Alem, Ruann Ibrahim, and Guadalupe Mercado), known formally as The One Ummah Team (we’re the… Continue reading

My thoughts on a peoples’ relationship of their Creator & one another:
“It’s impossible to appreciate someone, if you don’t care about them; and, it’s impossible to care about someone, if you don’t love them; and, it’s impossible to love someone, if you don’t trust them; and, it’s impossible to trust someone, if you don’t respect them; and, it’s impossible to respect someone, if you don’t know… Continue reading

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

My thoughts on Deception:
The Double-Life: The double-life is in each & every one of us. Attempting to live two lives is totally arduous. We think that we know people so well; but, what you see is just a facade. Once you begin a double-life path, you must at all times be on your guard. You’re willing to do… Continue reading
