Will You Travel With Me To Heaven Part Four

We pray to Allah, not because He Needs us, but because we need Him so God is the One who keeps us alive God is the One who helps us grow How dare you walk on earth as though You own it, when earth is owned by Him Allah who owns the whole universe Who owns everyone and everything How dare you speak when God gave you speech How dare you sleep when God made the night How dare you eat and drink what God Bestowed, and you ask 'does God have rights? ' Yes, God's Right is that He be worshiped Worshiped Alone with no other And that His commands be followed While we know Him as God and Ruler Allah: The Ruler of those on earth The Ruler of those that live beneath The Ruler of humans, animals, And jinns, and those that live in the seas Allah: The God and Owner of Everything and everyone He made Even the oxygen we breathe And the night and day are Allah's slaves So please do not ask 'why must we pray? ' We pray because we are Allah's slaves Slaves of God who created us all And gave us a place –this earth- to stay Because God is God, and the True King God has every right to command He can choose the number of prayers And how we should worship with our hands, What we should say in our salaahs, Which prayers should be said aloud How we should mention Allah's Names and How (when we pray) we must look down God has a right to order us to Abstain from the food and drink He gave He has a right to make Ramadan A month of fasting during the day God has a right to prevent us From committing sins and evil deeds From food and drink that He forbade To test us if we truly believe God tests us not because He knows not But because He wants to be sure To ensure that those who are with Him In Heaven are the good and very pure If you ask 'Who was before Allah? ' I ask, 'what was before number one? ' If you say 'zero' or 'nothing' Then what is before Allah is 'none' Allah is the First, the Only One, The One True God whom we should pray to The Only One who knows everyone Who knows what all His slaves will go through Allah is God who will question us On the Day of Resurrection Allah is the One to question us It is not right that God is questioned So do not question 'why should we pray? ' 'Why should we pray five times a day? ' God is the King who must command While we were born to be God's slaves There is no job on earth that is more Noble than being Allah's servant There is no home more spacious than earth But the homes in eternal heaven --->
