May your day be,
Filled with love and light
May your rhymes be right,
May your songs be tight
May your words give sight,
May your nour shine bright
May you always be on the righteous side of the fight
May your lovers be loyal may your soil be fertile
May your khakis stay crease may your lock stay oil
May your plans never get foil may your plot thicken
May your chicken be halal may your style be sufficient
May your soul be free of its prison
Ameen
May Allah increase you and your vision
Ameen
May you find everything you've been missing
Ameen
May you wake for prayer before the sun has risen
Ameen
When you speak may your audience listen
Ameen
May you never feel trapped in the system
Ameen
May you sight many righteous children
Ameen
Who will act on prophetic tradition
Ameen
May you always have food in your plate
Ameen
May you learn from every mistake
Ameen
May you raise above all the hate
Ameen
May Allah increase you in your state
Ameen
May you never pretend that you are what you aint
Ameen
May your friends be real and never be fake
Ameen
May your rent never have to be late
Ameen
May your health always be great
Ameen
May Allah forgive every sin
Ameen
Now and forever if you faulted again
Ameen
May you always stay closer to your kin
Ameen
May he make all your enemies friends
Ameen
May he make reality of your plans
Ameen
May your present be pleasant may you have a good end
Ameen
May your heart be purified of its flaws
Ameen
May you act according to the laws
Ameen
That were revealed in the book of Allah
Ameen
May he catch you whenever you fall
Ameen
May the one guide you to the truth
Ameen
When you doubt may he show you the proof
Ameen
May you be like the Ahla soof
Ameen
With the wisdom of the elders the energy of the youth
Ameen
May he accept your prayer and your fast
Ameen
The very first all the way to the last
Ameen
And remove obstacles that you have
Ameen
And may you receive everything that you ask
Ameen
May you never have regret for your past
Ameen
And receive mercy not the wrath
Ameen
And as you travel your personal path
Ameen
May you always have a reason to laugh.Baraka Blue

Beloved:(Sallallhu Alayhi Wa Sallam) Can you imagine one who was the gentlest of men while being the most brave and just of all who've been one who conquered all desires of self that make men weak who granted all who asked him precisely what they seek whom only jewels poured out his mouth whenever he would speak who was the gem amongst the stones of men who shined unique a selflessness and generosity that some would say was merely myth until they'd seen one of the lovers of his way who used to mend his sandals, used to patch his clothes who used to serve his family whenever he was home who had a noble shyness, not gazing long upon a face who honored all he ever met, be he king or be he slave who always felt himself at home the most among the poor who never angered for himself but only for his Lord always just, always truthful, conscious of the One even if it brought discomfort to himself and those he loved a satiated stomach his whole life was rarely felt not due to poverty but preference of others to himself who knew the time of day by sun, the direction by the stars who'd walk amongst his enemies without a single guard devoid of any trace of self, just humble and serene eloquent but not verbose, just precisely what he means whom all within his company felt light and sacred cheer whom there was not a thing within creation that he feared who loved to play with children and run races with his wives who'd join the festivities and honor customs of all tribes when people yelled and lost their cool around him he was calm who asked forgiveness for his enemies even as they did him wrong who kept a goat he'd milk himself for people in his house whose wives when asked about him said, "he was the perfect spouse" who never looked down on a pauper or flattered once a prince who called every soul unto the One without even a flinch every single gorgeous trait of character he had of noble lineage yet he was the orphan of his clan one imbued with wisdom and piercing inner sight yet he was the unlettered one who'd neither read nor write all knowledge and trait of character unflawed were placed inside his very being directly by Allah the way to salvation and triumph after death to detachment and joy in life with each and every breathe to walk the righteous path and never falter come what may and may Allah give us success in following his way they call him al-Amin, the trustworthy, the honest and I call him beloved, my master Muhammad (May God shower peace and blessings upon him)
