Allah’s Mercy
Allah’s mercy encompasses all
Even amidst shock and fall
Blind by the unknown
Stunned, frozen to the bone
Allah’s rahmah pervades
Every nook and cranny, it invades
Shocked mind has to see
Beyond the cloud, the Mercy
Iman intact
The promise, the pact
Duties discharge
Allah’s in charge
Only thing sure
Allah’s mercy is there
Can’t see, lost in the snare
Stress, the hearts bear
Tighten the grip
Rope to Allah
Don’t let it slip
Only way to falaah
Worry, uncertainty creates
Derails the mind, to deviate
Only solace to satiate
Allah’s mercy that permeates
