Poem on Ramadan
By Fatima Mohammed Al-Qarni:
“Half” is lost… and on the road “the rest”
In the hustle of the markets and tables
And our morning: “Rise for the teacher”… weary…
This… and that is hostage to silence
Piled up, our footsteps dragging… as we pull them…
Hope is fading… the eyes ignited
And our evenings… each mumbling: “Enough for us…”
The affliction of ‘routine’ has yet to have a cure!
Our kitchens are chaotic; the sound of our pots…
Has overflowed with every flavor
And our rush at sunset is as if…
The path got lost… and there is no cupbearer
And “our standing” at night… from “Rita” to…
“Marcel” for “Zidan”… what a race!!
Oh, season of goodness fleeting through us…
Brought together by the burns of poverty!
“The time of temptation” has turned “our rituals”
O opportunity for forgiveness and emancipation.
Poem on Ramadan Crescent
By Ahmed Salem Ba’athib:
Tomorrow, the glad tidings and victory will shine upon us
And the stones will celebrate those who fast and the sacred
Tomorrow, the crescent of fasting will appear
In a radiant procession as the night grows dark
Hearts resonate with longing within
For love has a sweet reverie, fresh and green
Tomorrow, our minarets will announce joyful news
And news flows from the verses and the warnings
I stand among honorable people, waiting
For a precious guest clothed in the light of God
We fall asleep and awaken to memories of His character
We nearly drown in remembrance and we break our fast
I saw Him a year ago in our mosques
Carrying in His palms the sun and the moon
He grants His virtues to people as a reminder
They resonate with the ear, feeling, and sight
When He unfurled the stakes of separation, He bid me farewell
Courage overwhelmed me, fear and anxiety seized me
I stammered, my heart trembling within, but the likes of me
Can hardly bear the slaps of sin
I did not come to plead, O Ramadan, my supplications
But rather, I came to apologize for what my hands have earned
My records are bare in the ledger of goodness
Lacking in beauty, and my robe has been stretched by age
O Ramadan, indeed we extend our hands for salvation
And events and alterations have surged among us
Hearts have turned away from the truth when seeking
To the arenas of tyranny and indulgence
So my words touched His hearing, and they became
Flowing from His lips were verses and chapters
And He did not show disdain, but rather replied in patience
O Lord, O Lord of mercy, they are but mortals.
Poem on Ramadan by Al-Sanousi
By Mohammed bin Ali Al-Sanousi:
O Ramadan, month of light
Freeing us from the darkness’s grip
Illuminate with the lights of guidance
The souls ensnared in rubble
And let the purity of sanctity
Enlighten life’s visions from the gloom
And pour our emotions with piety
And envelop our desires with peace
O Ramadan, hope of thirsty souls
Longing for tranquility
O month, or rather a river, flowing
From its sweetness across mankind
Souls are afloat, gliding
Like flocks of doves
White, adorned with piety
Illuminated by fasting
Delicate as fragrant flowers
Pure as the dew of clouds
Transparent in feeling, dedicated
Refined in speech
She is precious against whims, elevated
Above a world of dirt
She ascended to the light that
Filled existence with a smile
A light from the Criterion that lifts
To the highest degree
Its verses heal the wounds
And its expressions quench thirst
O Ramadan! Forgive me, for I stand
Neither behind nor before
We slept and those in darkness spiraled
And what shall the sleepers find?
The road was long and lost
And the crowds have pressed us down
Aspirations tightly held
And slipped from our grasp
The whims mocked us and galloped away
Laughing amid chaos
The souls’ ambitions hesitated
Neither rising nor breaking through
A condition that weighs down the honorable
As they suffer, the despicable rejoice
O Ramadan, the mouth that refrains
From drink or food
Assumed that fasting is merely from food
This is the truth of being
It makes the body suffer, akin to a sword
If only he fasted from backbiting and the illicit
And cleaned his soul from
Lies, deceit, and evils
And from standing, if only he stood
In the path of righteousness
O Ramadan! A heartfelt plea
For Muslims and for peace
It soars with prayers and supplications
Igniting a fire within
O Allah, Glorified and Exalted
The Giver of great kindness
May Allah guide the leaders
To righteousness in all decisions.
