A poem from one of our supporters

Where
do you stand this Ramadan?

Will
you stand alongside those in dire need?

When
did you last declare no God but Allah?

How
often do you offer prayers up to him?

To
whom did you proffer your zakat?

How
do you exercise self control?

And
when will you pilgrimage once to Mecca?

When
did you last participate in fasting?

With
whom did you share your ultimate bread?

Can
you understand the concept of hunger?

What
value do you place on other persuasions?

To
those; how do you show true mercy?

Are
they not fellow human beings too?

Where
is it said that living should be easy?

What
don’t you understand about peace?

Who
told you the meaning of sacrifice?

When
will you purify your wealth and soul?

And
will you progress passed the tûba?

Will
you stand alongside brothers and sisters?

Where
do you stand this Ramadan?
