In Today’s Times:

We’re cheating on our Wives… …are comfortable telling lies… …support the same Tyrants we despise… …and when punished we act so surprised… …we murder our Mothers & our Fathers… …disgracing our Brothers & our Sisters… …the air is filled with no sense of Care… …this World seems to produce only despair… …War is rampant, Cities Continue reading

Melody of Madness:

Winter is no longer cold…I’m no longer young. Confusion in my life…the War hasn’t been won. Carnage fills my heart, like war-torn Syria. AIDS & Ebola ravage from Rwanda to Libya. The rise of Atheism immersed in Academia. The demand for Petroleum from Saudi Arabia. America uses ISIS for their warmongering devices. Depletion of the Continue reading

My Advice to the Ummah

#‎Muslims‬…especially ‪#‎MuslimReverts‬ and/or Muslims native to the ‪#‎WesternWorld‬ are in a serious bind & all because of ‪#‎Islamophobia‬: it’s turning Parents against Children, Spouse against Spouse, Co-Worker against Co-Worker, Neighbor against Neighbor, Friend against Friend. It’s tearing our Societies apart, and if we study the Sirah/Biography of Muhammad (Peace be upon him), the same thing Continue reading

The Day I Became A Coward:

Author’s-Note: “And, don’t allow your hatred against any People prevent you from being Just.” (Noble-Qur’an: Chpt.5, V.8) This is a true-story, of when I had a very gruesomely hostile argument with my Mother, over Religion. I was still fairly a New-Muslim at the time, and she was vehemently against me being a Muslim in the Continue reading

The Stillness of Loneliness:

Pitch black, quiet…nothing moves, it’s silent. Darkness covers the Sky as I tread defiant. I once was beloved, now I am so hated. At one time victorious, now so defeated. Loneliness fills all of my mind with agony. Still as a stagnant River frozen by apathy. Around many, yet distant from all. None to feel Continue reading

“America’s-Dad” falls from Grace

Bill Cosby…the Man dubbed “America’s-Dad”, has been found to be setting very negative examples for his American-Children: the American-People-those who’ve watched his many shows, such as “The Electric Company”, “I Spy”, “The Cosby Show”, etc. From the late 1960’s to the present, Bill Cosby had been lauded as one of the most ideal role-models for Continue reading
