We watched ...

Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem















I fear You.
How will we answer to You on Qiyaamah?

When our Sisters and Mothers were raped, we watched.
When our Brothers were dragged to prison, we watched.
When our Elders were mutilated, we watched.
When the Mujahideen were tortured, we watched.

When Our Children were beheaded, we watched.
When Depleted uranium burned their insides, we watched.
When Pregnant bellies were slashed open, we watched.
When Babies were thrown to their deaths, we watched.
When his mother lay there bleeding and motionless, we watched.
When Children became insomniac because of atrocities their eyes witnessed, we watched.

When Grenades exploded in schoolyards, we watched.
When he witnessed the gang rape of his mother, we watched.
When Children became mutes because of the incomprehension of atrocities, we watched.

When the Infant was trampled on, in front of his screaming mother, we watched.
When Children stopped smiling, we watched.
When young Boys were forced to take up arms to defend their women folk, we watched.
When her Brother was used as a human shield, we watched.
When Muslim land was occupied and terrorised, we watched.
When She was raped at the age of four, we watched.
When her husband was beheaded and torched, we watched.

When we saw Mujahideen sacrificing their lives for Aakhirah, we watched.
When we were called to Jihaad, we watched.
O Allah, we watched and ignored.

We shed tears whilst they shed blood for You, O Allah!
Will You forgive us? 
Will the beloved Messenger of Islam (Sallallaahu ‘alayhi wasallam) even glance at us, O Allah?

When the Ummah was humiliated, we watched and sat here complacently.
Yet we call ourselves Muslims.

And yet here we stand, and again we watch.

From one who claims to be Your slave.
