What are the Muslim-Men going to do?
Burma…Bosnia…Gaza…China: all of the Believers devoured at the table-spread of the Oppressors. Somalia…Egypt…Libya…Mali: Muslim-Rulers stand by as they rape our mothers and our daughters. Hezbollah…Al-Qaeda…Boko Haram: funded by our corrupt governments, to terrorize and cause harm. CNN…FoxNews…NewYorkPost: spread Islamophobia, like Mosquitoes spreading disease on a farm. But, what do we do, aside from starring at… Continue reading

Jihād is not a “Bad-Word”:
Imma tell ya a story of what Jihad really is Folks: it’s not this dirty-word, that Islamophobic Birds chirp about in the Media… …it’s something that starts from the individual, and works its way into the Public, to establish Divine-Justice, the Shari`ah… …Each of us have plenty trials, flaws, and sins… …but, we work hard… Continue reading

I live Life with no Filter:
I’m unrefined, unpolished…after an earthquake, demolished…I’m the raw substance. I’m uncouth, aloof…sarcastic thru the roof…but, at the same time, I’m totally honest. There’s no foundation on my surface, to hide my bruises that I’ve attained in my life. There’s no shield, that is used, to conceal what I’ve experienced, by trials and strife. From toy… Continue reading

Imaginative-Reasoning:
Imagine a Chessboard, without pieces… …or, a Dissertation, without a Thesis. What if the Homeo had no stasis… …the World’s weather no phases? Try to picture the Arctic-Circle, with no Ice-Caps… …and, all of the Animals extinct, not coming back. Let’s think of a Planet without compliance… …filled with hypocrisy, apathy and violence.

Gareth Bryant vs. Cyrus McGoldrick:
Author’s-Note: Every month I’ll be conducting a Poetic-Challenge, challenging various poets, whom I personally know/interact with, just for the sake of sharpening/improving my own poetry, general-goodwill, respect for my fellow “Brethren of the Paper & Pen”, and to just see who from among us has the best “Poetry-Skillz”…Every month, I’ll be picking a brand-new Poetic-Challenger,… Continue reading

The Evolution of my Confidence:
Author’s-Note: I’ve arrived at a beautiful realization, today, based upon a much-needed epiphany, decided by Divine-Providence, from Allah, the Creator/Lord of the Universe. For every person who has ever told me that I wasn’t good enough for them, there have been thousands who would tell me they want me by their side… …for every person… Continue reading

The Results of a Broken-Home: When Someone feels they’re all-alone
Author’s note: Neghena Hamidi, a young, new, literary-artist, has graced my blogpage, with a very endearing poem, about the ill-effects of a pathological homelife-experience. The piece itself is very captivating, describing, in detail, how someone may, and sadly, often, ends up, as a result of negativity in their lives, from home. I walked past both… Continue reading
