They stand there with shorts, so short, excessively short,
shorts that so deceptively capture from them all they know
of modesty...

...and I proudly pull my scarf over my hair

They stand there, face lost in a sea of make-up,
make-up that so ruthlessly captures from them all they know
of freedom...

...and I proudly pull my scarf over my hair

They stand there, hair raining with gels, colors -
chemicals that so menacingly capture from them all they know
of purity...

...and I proudly pull my scarf over my hair

They stand there, so close, so very close to their "lover",
devoted to them, the devotion that so mercilessly captures
from them all they know of individuality...

...and I proudly pull my scarf over my hair

And they stand there, talking of getting new shorts, new gels
and colors, new boyfriends, materialistic things
that so wrongfully capture from them all they know
of God and love...

...and I proudly pull my scarf over my hair

For my scarf is my protector, my lover, my devotion,
my pureness, my beauty, my rememberance of God,

And I proudly pull it over my hair knowing that when I wear it,
I so rightfully thrust away all the things that the devil
brought about,

And when I put it on, I am

Free...

Assalamualaikum WaRahmatullahi WaBarakaatu,

MASHAALLAH!!! VERY WELL SAID!!! COUNDN'T HAVE BEEN SAID BETTER... :D

Us Muslims can so relate to this poem...

May Allah Ta'allah strengthen all our Imaans so that we may practice our Divine Religion in its pure form and in freedom. And also give us enough Imaan to be able to preach it to others in its pure form (after correcting and rectifying our own Imaan). Ameen

Wasalaam :)

Assalamoalaikum,
The colours that came to my mind for poetry were green, blue and red.. And somehow i felt 'blue are red are kinda cute'. So i used them :). Another very good poem, make dua(to author). And we are all proud of the sisters, who sacrifice everything for Allah's sake.
Jazakallah khair,
