A Poem for Reflection

By Fahad Iqbal
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم 
 

Climb atop highest mountains,

Pierce your sight into the heavens,

Expand your vision to the horizons,

Dive deep into the darkest oceans,

 

Tell me now, do you find the Creator in creation?

Or can you grasp His grandeur with imagination?

 

Will you then worship your hand’s creation?

Or other beings lower in station?

Or pious dead awaiting resurrection?

 

What is wrong that you don’t reason!

Ditch gods created by humans!

To your Creator - alone - show devotion!

 

Follow His messenger sent to all nations,

You will be rewarded with eternal dominion,

In paradise, reclining high in station,

With words of recognition and congratulations,

Rivers, fruits, shades - delights beyond imagination,

In seats of honor near Lord of creation.

Poem - What You Sanctify?

By Fahad Iqbal
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم With clay you made it, As you will you shaped it, With garments you adorned it, With incense you perfumed it, With foods you served it, Will it ever eat it? With chants you invoke it, Will it even hear it? With care you protect it, Lest you break it! But if it does you replace it! And then you worship it?! Tell me why you sanctify it? With clay He made you, How He willed He shaped you, With garments He adorned you, Nose to smell - He gave you, With foods He nourished you, Does He need food from you?! When in distress He relieved you, When you whispered He heard you, With His mercy He protected you, When He wills He will replace you! That's Allaah - One who created you! Him alone, then worship! Will you?

I know how it all happened... it Evolved!

By Fahad Iqbal
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم How did the first single celled organisms appeared on earth? It evolved somehow. How did multi cellular organisms came to be? It evolved from single celled organisms. How did various plants, trees, animals of sea and land originate? They evolved of course. How did birds originate? They evolved from dinosaurs. How did humans originate? They evolved from apes. So what does evolution mean? It means slow change in organism(s) based on environmental conditions it is subjected to, such that the organism is able to better adapt to the conditions. How does evolution work? What drives it? What is the mechanism behind it? It is unknown and studies surrounding it are not able to come to decisive conclusion. Has evolution been observed in reality? Of course not! The process takes place in very small incremental changes which accumulate over millions of years; thus there is no direct observation of evolution actually taking place. But if this is true then we ...

O Devotee of The Christ!

By Fahad Iqbal
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم O devotee of The Christ! We have question, (1) seeking answer from one with comprehension. ** أَعُبَّادَ المَسِيحِ لَنَا سُؤَالٌ...نُرِيدُ جَوَابَهُ مِمَّنْ وَعَاهُ When God died, by deeds of a nation... they put him to death! What God is this, then? إذا ماتَ الإِلهُ بِصُنْع قومٍ...أمَاتُوهُ فَما هذَا الإِلهُ؟ Did it please him, with him, what they had done? If they did please him, for them is good news, then! وَهَلْ أرضاه ما نَالُوهُ مِنْهُ؟...فبُشْرَاهمْ إذا نالُوا رِضَاهُ And if they displeased him, with what they had done... their might prevailed over his, then?! وَإِنْ سَخِطَ الذِي فَعَلُوهُ فيه...فَقُوَّتُهُمْ إِذًا أوْهَتْ قُوَاهُ The Listener, The Answer-er of invocation... Without God, did continue the creation? وَهَلْ بَقِيَ الوُجُودُ بِلَا إِلهٍ...سَمِيعٍ يَسْتَجِيبُ لِمَنْ دَعَاهُ؟ Did cease...
