why didn't Islam immediately abolish the norm of slavery

      I say it's wisdom to tear off bad habits slowly gradually

      They say that Islam opts for conflict over harmony

      I say why did its founder sign hudaibya treaty?

      They say what are the practical steps for achieving peaceful co-existence?

      I say spirituality, economic justice and political control in sequence

      They say how can we make this world a better place?

      I say apply Muhammad's method in time and space!

      Democracy or Islam?

      So often we hear from the tongue of the pseudo intellectual

      that this Ummah needs democracy to rise from its upheaval

      The so-called learned do not realize the contradiction

      that lies between Islam and democratic dispensation

      In the very definition of democracy

      is the negation of God's sovereignty

      Of all things, man becomes the measure

      of right and wrong, he is the author

      for its operation, skepticism is inevitable

      to any transgression, it can grant approval

      Be it homosexuality or prostitution

      No guidance from divine revelation

      The Quran claims that majority on earth follow mere conjecture

      If you abide by their opinion, you'll be the eventual loser

      Without spirituality, Nafs dictates the mind of a human

      There is no guarantee of truth in such a situation

      According to great scholars, ijtihad is not an open mandate

      Everyone doesn't have the right to it in an Islamic state

      Shariah is not a playground of the ordinary laymen

      It's an expertise demanding intellectual acumen

      The Holy Prophet's habit of mutual consultations

      was due to the high caliber of his companions

      To label it as democracy

      is nothing but idiocy

      The appointment of Abu Bakar as caliph wasn't through elections

      but was simply taking a pledge or an oath of allegiance

      To consider it as a modern voting process

      is ignorance to Islam's original sources

      Were the first four rightly guided caliphs politicians?

      If yes, they wouldn't have earned such reverence

      They were men of the highest standard of excellence

      who never desired societal status or prominence

      O' Muslims, beware of your enemy's deceitful trap

      Follow the Sunnah if you want to rule the map!

      The Fortitude of Islam

      Many great men have walked on this planet, earth

      Some are destined for greatness right from birth

      But some undergo metamorphosis at a later stage

      Yet they are remembered with awe in every age

      One such special human being is this poem's subject

      Although words can't grant him his due respect

      By his conversion, faith was given certitude

      Through him, Islam was granted fortitude

      On a critical issue, when he would give his opinion

      To affirm it, God would send a similar revelation

      Wherever he would enter and reside

      Satan would runaway and hide

      When an earthquake shook Madinah's land

      He struck it with a stick in his hand

      and said, "why do you shake? have I not done justice on you?"

      It turned motionless as if just a silent bird had flew

      When the people of Egypt started complaining

      that the river Nile had stopped flowing

      With conviction yet humbleness, he wrote a famous letter

      and asked the governor to throw it in the water

      Suddenly changed was the fate of river Nile

      as if the angels had descended for a while

      Saints and sages are known only for their spirituality

      Yet this man defined a multi-dimensional personality

      All-encompassing vision of a leader

      Intellectual genius of a scholar

      Immutable courage of a holy warrior

      Humility of a God's messenger

      Unshakable will of a conqueror

      All facets in one character

      The beautiful petal of the Muslim flower

      The worldly manifestation of Divine power

      Even Western annals of History testify to his gigantic figure

      He was ranked 52 among 100 most influential people ever

      Muhammad said, "Allah speaks through the tongue of Umar"

      "If there was a prophet after me, it would've been Umar"!

      The Nursery Rhyme of Eid

      O' Brothers & Sisters, Congratulation

      For yet another Ramzan's completion

      One month of spiritual purification

      Four weeks of soul's gratification

      The ideal method for sins' deletion

      The perfect way for inner emancipation

      The best therapy for mind's relaxation

      The only cure for heart's wrong fixation

      Muslims don't celebrate the avoidance of fasting

      But rejoice on Allah's mercy that's everlasting

      Although we didn't do anything of worthy significance

      But we sincerely hope for Allah's full acceptance

      However, it's time to seek refuge from Satan

      He is back with the same evil intention

      To be free from his poison's infliction

      We desperately need divine intervention

      And to defend ourselves against Nafs, the inner serpent

      We need the companionship of Allah's sincere servant

      Lets pray that Ramzan wasn't a temporary vacation

      but the first step towards self-transformation!

      Iqbal's Concept of God: My Poetic Description

      The definitive root of all occurrence is a will directed rationally

      Allah is the unique name given to safeguard its individuality

      The Quran negates the pantheistic interpretation

      and stresses upon
