What's Wrong with My Faith?

unknown author

Editor's note: I came across this poem on a few different Islamic websites, with no author's name attached. I found the poem to be touching so I have reprinted it here.

O Allah!!!

Whats wrong with my faith?

What happen to those days when my eeman was so strong?

When my Yaqeen in You would lead me through good and bad.....

When i wouldn't dare think of doing anything wrong?

O Allah!!!

What happened to those days when my Daus were sincere?

When my Duas were responded...........

O Allah!!!

What happened to those days when i use to awake all night doing Ibadah?

When i use to forget everything about this Duniya..........and run to you.....

O Allah!!!

What happen to those tears that use to roll down my cheek whenever i thought about You....

Why have my tears dried up?

O Allah!!!

What happen to those days when my heart was pure and full of light?

When my faith was bright and gray.........

Whats wrong with me!!!

O Allah!!

Whats wrong with me!!!

Why is my eeman pulled down to a level so low??

Dont you know that

A little test like this one shouldn't beat you so........

It shouldn't pull you down to a level so low.......?

Dont you know that

Allah chosses what is best for you and that this is all a previously planned test.....?

Dont you know that

You're promised to be in Jannatul Firdows if you follow the commandments of Allah?

Dont you know that

Allah kareem will surely forgive you if you seek for forgiveness from him....?

Dont you know that

you can rebuild your faith again.......?

Hold on my Nafs......

Hold on to the fireball in your palm

Hold on to it when it burns

Act calm when it falls

bend down and restart

Let those tears roll down on your cheek and wipe that heart.......

Dont give up......

Just remember the beauty of the promised Firdows

you know it's your dream to build a house in Paradise........

Now get back on your feet and go back to those days when your faith was bright and grey....

Allah is great!!! Allah is OFT-Forgiving!!

............He'll forgive you...........

After climbing all thses rocky mountains in your life you'll finally see a gate to Jannah.........

"Beautified is the life of this world for those who disbelieve, and they mock at those who believe. But those who obey Allah's orders, and keep away from what He has forbidden, will be above them on the Day of ressurection.

And Allah gives (of his Bounty, Blessings, Favours, Honours on the Day of Ressurection) to whom He wills without limit.

(Verse 2:212)
