He fled from Aleppo
From the snipers and war
His mother and father
They perished before
The Man Who Burned The Book Recitation At Oxford University Islamic Society
Never Again, They Said
Never again, will it happen, they said
Never again, will the Nazis purge, they said
Never again, will the children of Israel grieve, they said
Never again will we sit by
While they use their poisoned words, they said
While they call them vermin, rats and traitors, they said
While they spread their hate and theories, they said
About their faith and about their intentions, they said
While they say the Jews are treacherous, they said
While they prepare the ground for the gassings and rapes
While their poison works through the public’s veins, they said
While their headlines and stories purvey the hate, they said
While their propaganda blinds the masses, they said
Never again will such hatred breed, they said
Mushtaq The Ice Cream Man
Let me share with you a tale
About the man Mushtaq
Who used to run an ice cream van
Along the wide South Bank
They never found his body
When it crackled into flames
Sinking to the belly of the melancholy Thames
Ramadan Poem
Ramadan is a month of fasting
From dawn to dusk every day
The rewards of which are everlasting
We observe our fast and we pray
Ramadan is the month of the Holy Quran
In this month God revealed His revelation
We read the Quran full of patience and calm
And we feel our souls’ elevation
Mind The Gap
And Yusuf Was His Name….
I’m your Venus, I’m your fire, at your desire- Shocking Blue
Venus came across a man
Gazing with her crystal eyes
Burning like a silver flame
Yearning with desire
She’s got it, yeah baby she’s got it
I’m your Venus, I’m your fire
At your desire
This stranger looked into her face
Her beauty encompassing the view
But looking beyond her, he was
Just like no-one else had
He’s got it, yeah baby, he’s got it
I am Yusuf, I desire Al Ma’rifa
