Nur Posted October 6, 2003 Assalamu Calaykum Dear Nomads, Sister Lateafah is back with determination to add a lot of value to the Dawa Caravan in search of Allah SWT. As a token of my appreciation for her decision and on your behalf, I have composed this quasi poem, I hope you all like it. REFLECTIONS When Honey tastes sour When Flowers smell bad When Silk feels rough When Truth hurts When Virtue is despised When honesty makes you poor When studying makes you a nerd When helping the poor makes you a leftist When Listening To Quran is not pleasant When Holding to your faith feels like holding to a piece of fire Yaa ukhtaah! It is not the honey, its sick taste buds It is not the Flowers, it is an allergy It is not the silk, its your rough finger tips It is not the truth, it is evil doing that hurts It is not the virtue, it is the Vice that is despised It is not the honesty, it is dishonesty that makes you morally poor It is not the Quran, it is a warped perception It is not your faith that hurts when you hold on to it, its punishment in the day of judgment that really hurts. (Low kaanuu yaclamuun) Walaalkiin Nur Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jaabir Posted October 7, 2003 Dear Latiifah.. I am so glad to you'r back walaahi.. it really pained me deeply to see you leave, your broad knowledge of islam and thriving iman didn’t go unnoticed walaaalai.. as I said before we can use SOL to enjoin and call to what is good and forbid and warn against what is evil. It is the obligation of people who are “like you” qualified, have profound understanding of the Deen, have good character and manners, and have a broad knowledge of Islam. Think of the Hasanah Aljaarya (ongoing Ajir) you can get when you post a simple topic. Alaah will reward you Ajir for each person who reads it..

Nur Posted April 9, 2006 Old Timers Where in the blue is Sister Lateefah? I know she was about to tie up with a Nomad, did they spawn little anachists to keep them away fromSOL? Nur Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
