Growth requires Change

In the name of Allah, The All-Merciful, The Especially Merciful


A time to pause, a time to reflect, a time to plan a course of action

Pondering deeply, some thoughts are bound to find traction

A young boy sits obediently and determined to memorise the Holy Book

His mother plays her natural motherly role, while also teacher and the cook

A man is deep in thought as he contemplates the state of world affairs

While meditating and seeking the guidance of the One who truly cares



He is consumed by the concern for his family and community out there

The change was necessary to make a difference and show we care

It took much time and deep reflection to reach this stage of growth

Take not for granted the bounties received after one made an oath

That you will exert your energy to ease and fulfil other’s needs

So be reminded that everything we do is written in the book of deeds



Change has to come and one must constantly look to grow

Certainly as long as the heart beats and the blood does still flow

It takes time to reflect deeply, remaining patient, for those who are wise

And when the right time comes these people will with wisdom arise

Successful indeed are those in whose actions discipline does abide

Contented, as they do their hopes and desires in their Lord confide
