If you make time ---Allah also will

 

 

I knelt to pray but not for long

I had too much to do.

I had to hurry and get to work

For bills would soon be due

 

So I knelt and said a hurried prayer,

And jumped up off my knees.

My Momin duty was now done

My soul could rest at ease.

 

All day long I had no time

To spread a word of cheer.

No time to speak of Allah to friends,

They'd laugh at me, I did fear.

 

No time, no time, too much to do

That was my constant cry,

No time to give to souls in need

But at last the time for me came to die.

 

I died and went before Allah

I went and stood with downcast eyes.

For in his hands Allah held a book;

It was the book of deeds of my life.

 

Allah looked into His book and said

"Your name I cannot find.

I once was going to write it down...

But never found the time".

 

So all you dear ones, listen up carefully

Make time to pray hard for Allah to forgive

All your sins in Shehrullah, and as for charity

Towards the poor and indigents just give and give

 

Make time to thank Allah for all His blessings on you

Make time to pray for all your friends and the family

Make time to pray for our Maola Burhanuddin

Without his Guidance where will you be?
