All

 gave you all I had
I gave you my heart
I gave you my life
I gave you my soul
I gave you my happiness
I gave you my tears
I gave you my hope
And I gave you even more
But what did you give me?
You gave me pain
You gave me shame
You gave me heartache
You gave me burdens to carry
You gave me loss
You gave me lies
You wrapped me with defeat
You surrounded me with evil
And then you vanished.
And now I've grieved
I've shed so many tears
I've felt my heart shudder
I've felt my body age
I've felt my heart harden
I have only one more space, 
A space left unfilled
A space filled with fear
I'm afraid because of you
The space I have is small but true
I need truth.
The one above,  only he knows
I trust in him and him alone
He is the judger of all judges
Some day he will catch up with you
It will be a day of great truth
All my tears and heartache,
They will wrap around you,
And shake you in a fury, 
And spread pain in every corner of your body,
He will spread it to your core, 
To your spirit,  your soul
He will not let you go.....

Tears

When I see her tears, her pain why do I ache in here? Is this justice? If the burden of both tears and pain were her, what justice would that be? Were her tears and her pain to be mine, justice would be done The tears welled up from her heart. I made her cry.  When her tears stream down here why do I ache in here? She says I don’t understand anything.  If I never understood anything, How come I understand what I am and what she is ?

International Women's Day: A Tribute To The Yazidi Women

Today is International Women’s Day. Last year I focused on women as a whole and spoke of the hardships some of us endure from single parenthood to dying in war torn nations. But this year I want to focus on the women, the girls, the prisoners of war, who are being treated like objects and are being sold into slavery and treated as sex slaves. These girls and women are being raped countless times every day and are giving birth to babies at young ages and dying during childbirth. These victims of sex slavery are not only traumatized physically but also emotionally. When, if they are released from their imprisonments’, they are not able to speak to their families of what really happened to them, rape, because if they do they’ll be cast away from their families because of their family honor. These women are told that being raped by a man or men is acceptable within Islam, this is false information. These women are the thousands and hundreds of thousands of Yazidi women who have been ...

Project Akhirah

This week I had the honor of learning more about a new Non profit organization still in its early stages yet has been successful beyond words; this charity is called Project Akhirah. A very close friend and sister of mine, Amina Farah, first reached out to me to discuss Project Akhirah and her volunteer work with this incredible organization. Project Akhirah is very new and thriving and looking to get the word out of what their organization wishes to accomplish. I decided why not write a blog! I’m always looking for reasons to sit back and type away. Project Akhirah is a Non profit organization set up in 2013 by a group of young Muslimahs’ in hopes of making a difference in the lives of the less fortunate, those whose lives are laden with poverty and suffering.  However each of the girls were personally affected by the crisis in Syria in particular and felt it a responsibility to help towards this cause. As a group they had made pledges to raise enough funds to donate to the ...
