The Woman In Flowing Cape

She is covered from head to toe in submission to her lord she covers her beauty from lustful eyes while she drifts away from sin. you can hardly see her skin or her teeth when she forces a grin. The fear of Allah shields her thought the sunnah of the prophet is her way of life. When her peers crave for minis or laud over the temptations of bikinis she cries in silence to her lord seeking Him to light her world. You will find her at the modrasat memorizing the holy-quran getting acquainted with words of hadith learning to stick to the commands of her lord, worrying less about the treasures of the world. She is neither a threat to society nor is she the cause of a broken home. When others threaten over a second wife she easily welcomes the other to her home and to her life all for the love of Allah and our Rosul You call her names when she passes-by or wonders if she would ever find love. You mock her in ignorance while she never wanes in her belief knowing fully well there would one day be relief. While she threads the earth the heavens sing her praise and the devil loses his gaze. A true muslimah who wakes at the cover of the night and supplicates for Allah's mercy upon her household. O! Allah make her the source of light that shines our path, bring her comfort from where she least expected Provide her a home where peace is pleased and sadness never lies in seduction.
