A Real Man - A Real reply

The search for a real man
Definitely will not end
A perfect ten - from an ordinary man?
He must be a gem, a godsend

This is human nature
As we seek the highest stature
To date only Rasulullah (pbuh) fits the bill
A rare diamond a prophecy fulfilled

From the ordinary folks
A real man is not a joke.
Impossible as it is!
The search should start from the West to the East

But before the search is on
Please look upon
A self-reflection should be in order
As a Muslim has a lot to shoulder

Surely a real man exist
In this world a temporal oasis
But the question is?
Where can you find him as we perceive?

Looking at her criterions - a difficult task is at hand
Surely there is a man but not a perfect ten
As his actions seeking Allah’s consent
But sister will you be contend?

A man is not free from sin
This is the fact this is the scene
Men do make mistakes
So sister what is your take?

The real man you’re seeking
Is it a reality or just wishful thinking?
I hope your search will not be in vain
A real man is not a bargain either he is a pain

A real man for a real woman*
That is the main concerned
A mirror image the complimentary roles
As Islamic teachings they dearly hold


It is not enough wanting others to do good
As the same applies to us as it should
Thus when seeking for a real man – a life partner
The search begins from you and not from other

* Al-Quran 24:26 “Bad statements are for bad people (or bad women for bad men) and bad people for bad statements (or bad men for bad women). Good statements are for good people (or good women for good men) and good people for good statements (or good men for good women): such (good people) are innocent of (every) bad statement which they say; for them is Forgiveness, and Rizqun Karîm (generous provision i.e. Paradise).
