Test of Faith

Test of Faith
By Saka Afeez. O. (Psychology)

Your Eeman is meant to be tested 
With it you have been entrusted 
Make duah and seek repentance 
For your success not to be reposted

You know you have this attitude
That can never make you pay a dime of gratitude 
To the ONE who preserves you amongst the multitude
 Yet, you keep salivating for plentitude.

In public, Islam you propagate
But within you, hypocrisy you celebrate 
Reflect on this before it's too late
And give shytaan no course to jubilate.
