A SPARK OF MERCY MAY LIGHT THE WAY
Just a round and zip up
Just a sip and round up
All sinning, repent and live on
All in a moment will be gone
Where then will all these sins go?
Will Allah just let go deeds of ego?
Do you then retain your space in Jannah?
As surely sins have no space in Jannah!
Everyday Allah proves to us most beneficent
A day would ascertain him most merciful one
But not to all creatures that would be present
As all would seek it but few would be chosen
Maybe we seek mercy by backing off sinning
What is as softening as sincere repentance?
What is as fulfilling as forever sin abstinence?
What are best as our faces in Jannah smiling?
JÛST…
