When I say...I am a Muslim

Masa tgh surf2 internet trjumpa poem ni...tp sayang xtau sape author,for sure not local..just copy the half of it sbb panjang sgt poem ni

When I say....I am a Muslim,
I'm not shouting "down with Christians and Jews"
I am whispering "I seek peace",
And Islam is the path that I choose.


When I say....I am a Muslim,
I speak of this with pride.
And confess that sometime I stumble,
and need Allah to be my guide.


When I say....I am a Muslim,
I know this makes me strong.
And in those times when I am weak,
I pray to Allah for strength to carry on.


When I say....I am a Muslim,
I'm not boasting of success.
I'm acknowledging that Allah has rescued me,
and I cannot ever repay the debt.


When I say....I am a Muslim,
I'm not claiming to be perfect.
My flaws are indeed visible,
but Allah forgives because his followers are worth it.


When I say....I am a Muslim,
it does not mean I will never feel pain.
I still have my share of heartaches,
which is why I invoke Allah's name.


When I say....I am a Muslim,
I do not wish to judge.
I have no such authority
My duty is to submit to Allah's all-encompassing love.
