Faith is belief in Allah
and the Messengers
The angels and the Final Day,
and the holy scriptures
And to believe in destiny
That good and bad
both come from Him
And the Resurrection,
there is no god but Allah
La ilaha illa Allah

Allah is the creator

The reckoning, the Final Day,
when all will see their works
Remade in soul and body
to stand before the Lord
With patience bearing every grief
With thankfulness for all blessings
We are content with destiny,
the Will of Allah
Faith is belief in Allah
and the Messengers
The angels and the Final Day,
and the holy scriptures
And to believe in destiny
That good and bad
both come from Him
And the Resurrection
there is no god but Allah

I Have Not a Thing
Al-Fiyashiyya الفياشية
Al-Fiyashiyya الفياشية
A humble slave am I of an Almighty Lord.
No work is too hard for that One who’s adored.
But though I’m a beggar who cannot afford
To claim any strength, sure and strong is my Lord.
I haven’t got the force,
No strength between my sides,
I feel such remorse but The Maker provides.
He says, where He Wills, when He wishes a thing,
Just be, and it is, by the might of A King.
The Ruler whose edicts and wise rulings bring,
All blessings and grace by the might of A King.
I haven’t got the force,
No strength between my sides,
I feel such remorse but The Maker provides.
In the gloom of the womb,
He made me from a seed,
I saw His blessings bloom,
There, all pureness decreed.
I’m safe in the shade of His All-Knowing height,
And no strength have I - His All Power and might.
So Glory to Allah, His bounty shining bright,
All gratitude and praise are His due and His right.
Translation: Abdal Hakim Murad
Allah's Messenger,
peace be upon him:
Shall I not inform you
of the best of your actions,
the purest in the sight of your
Lord, which raises your rank
to the highest, which is better
for you than spending gold
and silver, better than meeting
your enemy so that you strike
at their necks and they strike
at yours?’ They replied:
‘Yes, indeed,’ and he said:
‘It is the remembrance
of Allah.
(At-Tirmidhi)
