The Recent Attacks in different countries Worldwide:
Learning about the recent violent attacks in both Kenya & Pakistan, as well as other nations, are always sad constantly constantly to hear about, or to constantly read about, or to constantly watch on T.V. It still reminds us all that senseless-violence, regardless to whomever commits it, whomever teaches to indulge in it, whomever supports… Continue reading

Water: An Islamic-Treasure!!!
All living things, essentially, rely on water for basic-existence on Earth, making it such a crucial part of our existence; yet, sadly, we take it for granted far too often & even once is one time too many. We, often times, are so quick to purposely ignore & forget the teaching of Muhammad, the Messenger… Continue reading

My thoughts on the 4th of July:
Author’s Note: July 4th-Weekend is where people put up their American flags, on their home doors, front lawns, windows, and/or cars & have day-long BBQ’s in their backyards, or go to beaches, celebrating the commemoration of how American Colonists stood against the British Crown & resisted tyranny. I would just like to present this poem,… Continue reading

My thoughts about the Rain:
The Rivers of the Street!!! When it rains, it pours, as the torrential bathing of New York, keeps us wet & cold. Winds direct this Rain, to every corner, block & sidewalk; it just does what it’s told. The day-long down-pour, from the Sky, funnels down avenues & alleyways. The Storm-Clouds are gray, thick &… Continue reading

Oppression is wretched!!!
It is something that will taint your soul. You’ll never reach Paradise, our goal. Tyranny is something that which Allah has banned for Himself. Yet, we have the audacity to strip the creation of their wealth. This wealth is priceless: they are our lives, properties & honor. Violating, taking these things from others is an… Continue reading

My thoughts on the War on…everything!!!
We’re fighting all the wrong wars, for all the wrong reasons!!! Instead of a war on drugs, let us wage a war upon hypocrisy. The U.S. had supported the Contras, to promote Democracy. They were the political MS-13, yet they were given the free range to help the CIA to smuggle narcotics. It was done… Continue reading

My thoughts on the victims of the global water-crisis:
Author’s note: The following poem is based upon the trials & perils of life that some of the most victimized individuals in this global water-crisis are: Children. They suffer the highest consequences of this water-crisis & usually are the last to get help. These same children whom are often the first casualties of this water-crisis,… Continue reading
