In the name of God, compassionate & merciful بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ | Peace be with you السلام عليك
She steadily walks upon a narrow path,
Feeling demoralized, dejected, a distinct outcast.
Her Iman is awfully weak and extremely shaken,
But inside is a desire for the attributes of a sincere Mu’min to awaken.
Her mind is amiss and her heart is forsaken,
Control must once again be gained for this test cannot be retaken.
Stumbling now for her honour has been slain,
A numbed body is on pause, full of discomfort and pain.
Ashamed from being misled by the blinding worldly desires,
Her guilty head sinks after joining the dark sea of the loathed liars.
The perfect cure is the Divine guidance and the final revelation,
And Inshallah there will be signs of a triumphant transformation.
She notices Muslims praying as she walks on,
They greet and welcome her despite all she has done.
A chance for a positive change is seen so clear,
She cries and smiles in hope since she knows her Lord truly cares.
Support and strength is supplied by her strong determination,
Words of wisdom and care are given to her by the Prophet’s (SAW) nation.
Peace once again blossoms unto her path,
She completely submits to the truth that guides her soul through a journey free from Allah's (SWA) wrath.
