Divine-Clemency:

When I speak, I’m so weak… …I cry & tears reach the Sky. My spirits get so low… …My blood flows slow. My self-esteem ain’t always what it seems… …My lack of productivity taints my dreams. However, in the darkest and longest hours of the Night… …Knowing that Allah is my Lord makes everything alright. Continue reading

How can Someone be so Cruel?

Author’s-Note: As we all know, Death, and the process that goes with ensuring that someone is given their Human right to a proper burial is a very weighty responsibility.

Race-Relations: Commonalities vs. Differences

There’s beauty within all the creation of Allah, within all Human beings. It’s just that ash-Shaytan/the Devil, along with his countless Shayatin/Minions-of-the-Devil (Noble Qur’an: Chpt.114, V.3-5), whispers into the hearts both of Jinn (Unseen-Creation made from Smokeless-Fire [Noble Qur’an: Chpt.55, V.15]), as well as Men, adding corruption to the pure-nature of the Human being, to Continue reading

My Personal-Reflections about Pearl-Harbor:

December 7th…#PearlHarborDay: The day that the United States at the Pearl-Harbor Naval-Base, Oahu, Hawaiian-Islands, was attacked by the Imperial Armed Forces of Japan, as a result of America breaking the Neutrality-Acts of its own Federal-Legislation, which sprung the U.S. into the greatest (international/global) military-conflict, in the history of Man, World-War II, a war responsible for Continue reading

You’ll never find this on Salafi Publications: A Necessary Hujjah (Indictment/Refutation) against Saudi Arabia…a kingdom of Sectarian-Deviants, Tyrants, and Powermongers

Author’s-Note: Allah states, within His Noble-Book: “And, hold-on to the Rope of Allah altogether. But, do not divide/splinter-off (from) one another.”.(Noble-Qur’ān: Chpt.3, V.103)…regardless to how clear this verse from the Qur’an is, sadly, we, as Muslims (mainly stemming from our natural negative-quality of ingratitude), pathologically yearn to do the opposite of what Allah advises/commands us Continue reading
