Submitted by : Muslim Starhh on Youth

Oh my people, where have we gone wrong?
When? Why?
To whom does all the blame belong?
The answer my friend is you
The muslim youth
We brought ourselves to our knees
They say we're 'old school'
We're nothing new
Islam has lost its respect
And we still laugh and joke like there's time left
I see my sisters leave the hijab behind
I mean the dont evan see it as a crime
They say that they're not afraid of what their parent might say
But have they forgotten about the Judgement day?
I'm not a hypocrite nor a lier
So imma tell the truth to save me from the hellfire
I'm Afraid
I'm afraid of the day I will stand up before Allah (SWT)
When my mouth will lose its tongue
But my body parts will speak
I can't control my hands
I can't dictate what to say
I'm afraid of that day
When my good deeds and bad deeds will be weighed. and the hand I will recieve my book is clear
And the ground bares witness to what I did then and there
That day when I'll be asked what i did in my youth
What i did in this dunya to help spread the truth
I will be afraid
On that day I'll be asked why i missed my salah
What can I say to Allah (SWT)?
Fajr was too early i couldn't get up
Is that what i'll say to Al Khaliq The Creator?
I pray these lines will be my witness
To prove i did something to spread the deen during my youth and fitness
I hope me and my sisters won't be driven by the Western Culture, where we're still 'young'
And supposed to have "fun"
I see they're fitnah i hope you do too
Allah please make us some of those whom never leave you
Please make us one of those lukky ones standing under your shade
Cuase of what we did back in those days
Cause of what we did in when we were young
Cause we managed to bring our da'wah along
Oh Allah! Help us repent and pray
Oh Allah! Forgive us as we have wronged and been wronged before
Oh Allah! Make our deen easy for us in our youth
So we may grow old init
And die in it
Comming back to you
inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un.
To God we belong and to Him is our return.

AMIIIN!!!
