"Iblees ka Paighaam Apne Siasi Farzandon Ke Naam"

wo faqa kash kay mout say derta nahin zara
Rooh-e-Muhammad (PBUH) uss kay badan say nikal dou

Fikr-e-Arab ko dey key farangi takhayyulaat
Islam ko Hijaz-o-Yaman say nikaal dou

Afghanion ki ghairat-e-deen ka hai ye ILaaj
Mullah ko un kay koh-o-daman say nikaal dou

Ahl-e-Haram say un ki riwayaat cheen lo
Aahu ko murghzar-e-hatan say nikaal dou

Iqbal kay nafs say hai laaley ki aag tez Aisey ghazal sira ko chamman say nikaal dou

Dr. Iqbal is assuming here that Satan is addressing to his followers. ( Meanings : Faqa kash = Poor man but of strong Faith; derta = Scared of; Badan = Body; Fikr = Thoughts; Takhayyulat= Concepts; Ghairat-e-deen = Strong Faith; ILaaj = Cure; Mullah = Referring to strong faith Muslim here; Koh-o-daman = Country (Afghanistan here); Ahl-e-Haram = Muslims; Riwayaat = Traditions; Aahu = Deer; Murghzar-e-Hatan= Land of Faith and peace; Nafs = Thoughts; Laley = Garden; Ghazal Sira = Reformer here)

"He is Allah the Creator, the Maker, the Fashioner...."

22 He is Allah besides Whom there is no god; the Knower of the unseen and the seen; He is the Beneficent, the Merciful

23 He is Allah, besides Whom there is no god; the King, the Holy, the Giver of peace, the Granter of security, Guardian over all, the Mighty, the Supreme, the Possessor of every greatness Glory be to Allah from what they set up (with Him).

24 He is Allah the Creator, the Maker, the Fashioner; His are the most excellent names; whatever is in the heavens and the earth declares His glory; and He is the Mighty, the Wise.

Surah Al-Hashr 59

Praisest Thee

Oh dear God

My love to thee who is the merciful and kind indeed
Fair and mighty he judge us by deed
Not my color does he care
Or the texture of my hair
It is not the shoes I wear
Nor the language which I speak
For he judge me by my deed

He created one man so long ago
And taught him the knowledge from himself
Bow to Adam so he said
But the Jinn stood tall and proud
And before his lord refused to bow
The Jinn was ungrateful arrogantly so
And fell from grace
To be abhorred


But quietly not he left he promised to make mischief in the land
And behind our ears he whispers thought
But never take our hand in action
We make the choice to follow true
Or fall to lies and pay our due

The righteous shall do whats right
The wrong shall be punished with great might
They well ask for second chance
But will be granted nothing of the sort

The prophets came to them indeed
So why not follow them in heed
To love thy lord what makes you not
Is it that you just forgot

The blessing are abundant so
The food we eat the plants we grow
The children we have
The friends we love
His glory be in what we know

The little things both good and bad
Show you all you need to know
To give you chance
To repent your soul

Frolic upon beauty so bright
But only if thee do what right
Though the pressure great and strong
T’was what call them to stray away

Darkest nights
And brightest sun
All create by the one
The grass that grows
The trees that shade
Should cause man to stop and think

Not one could cause a plant to grow
Though the think they causest so
But if it be that you are
Then try to give the blind man sight

Or try to stop a human death
Or try to go right when he command you left
Control the time with your hand
Make food grow upon destitute land

Then ye know the truth indeed
Understand the will of God
None is better then our lord
He is better to be adored

Upon my rest
I’ll think of thee
The one you save me from my self
The one who strengthens me with health
You rest me down to sleep
And bring me live from the dead

Please lord bless me one more night
To forbid what’s wrong
And do what’s right
So I be among heaven sent
And not among the burning dead

"Islamic Poetry"

"And when Ibrahim said: My Lord, Make this city (Makkah) a Place of Security and Provide its People with Fruits..."

125 And when We made the House a pilgrimage for men and a (place of) security, and: Appoint for yourselves a place of prayer on the standing-place of Ibrahim. And We enjoined Ibrahim and Ismail saying: Purify My House for those who visit (it) and those who abide (in it) for devotion and those who bow down (and) those who prostrate themselves. 126 And when Ibrahim said: My Lord, make this city (Makkah) a place of security and provide its people with fruits such of them as believe in Allah and the last day. He said: And whoever disbelieves, I will grant him enjoyment for a short while, then I will drive him to the chastisement of the fire; and it is an evil destination. 127 And when Ibrahim and Ismail raised the foundations of the House: Our Lord! accept from us; surely Thou art the Hearing, the Knowing: 128 Our Lord! and make us both submissive to Thee and ( raise) from our offspring a nation submitting to Thee, and show us our ways of devotion and turn to us ( mercifully), surely Thou art the Oft-returning (to mercy), the Merciful. 129 Our Lord! and raise up in them a Messenger from among them who shall recite to them Thy communications and teach them the Book and the wisdom, and purify them; surely Thou art the Mighty, the Wise. 130 And who forsakes the religion of Ibrahim but he who makes himself a fool, and most certainly We chose him in this world, and in the hereafter he is most surely among the righteous. 131 When his Lord said to him, Be a Muslim, he said: I submit myself to the Lord of the worlds. 132 And the same did Ibrahim enjoin on his sons and (so did) Yaqoub. O my sons! surely Allah has chosen for you (this) faith, therefore die not unless you are Muslims. 133 Nay! were you witnesses when death visited Yaqoub, when he said to his sons: What will you serve after me? They said: We will serve your god and the god of your fathers, Ibrahim and Ismail and Ishaq, one Allah only, and to Him do we submit.
[Surah Al-Baqarah]

"The Voice of Nature"

Today, I wanted to share an Islamic poem "I Wonder" but due to some technical reasons the poem can not be shared presently. But let me share a good news and that is: I have registered a domain name for my blog "The Voice of Nature". I have opted to use the custom domain feature of Blogger. Blogger allows us to attach our registered domain name with our blogger hosted blog. So, in this way we can remove blogspot from the url while we still keep using simple and free hosting of Blogger.com . Alhamdulillah, I have registered a domain name:
www.voiceofnature.net for my blog: "The Voice of Nature" So, what are you waiting for visit www.voiceofnature.net right now. Thanks in advance!!! Rabbana Taqabal Minna Innaka Antas Samee-ul-Aleem, Ameen.

Most surely, my Lord is the Hearer of prayer

35 And when Ibrahim said: My Lord! make this city secure, and save me and my sons from worshipping idols:

36 My Lord! surely they have led many men astray; then whoever follows me, he is surely of me, and whoever disobeys me, Thou surely arc Forgiving, Merciful:

37 O our Lord! surely I have settled a part of my offspring in a valley unproductive of fruit near Thy Sacred House, our Lord! that they may keep up prayer; therefore make the hearts of some people yearn towards them and provide them with fruits; haply they may be grateful:

38 O our Lord! Surely Thou knowest what we hide and what we make public, and nothing in the earth nor any thing in heaven is hidden from Allah:

39 Praise be to Allah, Who has given me in old age Ismail and Ishaq; most surely my Lord is the Hearer of prayer. [ Surah Ibraheem , The Holy Quran]

It was my dream to serve in one of the two holy cities; Makkah or Al Madina in Saudi Arabia. Alhamdulillah I have arrived here in Jeddah and hopefully, insha Allah I will soon be serving in Makkah-al-Mukarmah by starting my work in the field of electrical technology. Praise be to Allah Who answered my prayers and enabled me to visit the most sacred places of Muslims; Masjid Al Haram, The Holy Kabah in Makkah and Masjid Nabvi in Madina-al-Munawarah, Saudi Arabia. I had captured these photographs on 20th of August 2010. The following photos were captured on Jumah 08-10-2010

In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful.

In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful.

 

All praise is due to Allah, so we praise Him, and seek His pardon and we turn to Him. We seek refuge with Allah from the evils of ourselves and from the evil consequences of our deeds. Whom Allah guideth aright, there is none to lead him astray; and there is none to guide him aright whom Allah leads astray. I bear witness that there is no God but Allah, the One, having no partner with Him. His is the Sovereignty and to Him is due all praise. He grants life and causes death and is Powerful over everything. There is no God but Allah, the One; He fulfilled His promise and helped His servant and He alone routed the confederates.

Reference: All of these words have been taken from "The Farewell Khutbah"
.

“O Allah! Send Your mercy on Muhammad [SAAW] and on the family of Muhammad [SAAW], as You sent Your mercy on Abraham and on the family of Abraham, for You are the Most Praise-worthy, the Most Glorious. O Allah! Send Your blessings on Muhammad [SAAW] and the family of Muhammad [SAAW], as You sent your blessings on Abraham and on the family of Abraham, for You are the Most Praise-worthy, the Most Glorious.”

Alhamdulillah, I have registered this blog with the domain name: www.VoiceOfNature.net and the first post is being published today on 05/02/1432 A.H [09/01/2011]

Although, I have already been using this template and the title for the last few months but after registering the new domain www.voiceofnature.net I have deleted all the previous posts of this blog so it's going to be a new blog completely, InshaAllah.
