This blog is published for the sake of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala and the thousands of Muslims raised or reverts, or even non-Muslis, who might be living in areas where they are not able to experience Ramadan in a Muslim community; so we, at MWA, invite you to be a part of our community in Ramadan.

The month of Ramadan in which was revealed the Qur'an, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs for the guidance and the criterion (between right and wrong) Al-Baqarah 2:185

Established in 2006, Muslimah Writers Alliance (MWA) is an internationally-based collaboration of Muslim women writers and advocates working together to counter negative and inaccurate perceptions regarding members of the Muslim community and the Islamic faith.

Ahlen Ya Ramadaan! Ahlen Ya Ramadaan! a poem by MWA's Muslimah Poetess

A month of Unlimited Mercy, the month of Qura’an,
The 30 blissful days where the Sakeena descends from Ar – Rahmaan,
Which only precedes after the peaceful ending of Sha’baan,
Ahlen Ya Ramadaan! Ahlen Ya Ramadaan!

Where the days are filled with Barakaah, and the nights are amazingly Divine,
Where the rusted hearts are cleansed by tawbaah and so now it beautifully shines,
The period where the Shayateen are locked and caged,
For the Mu’mins to engage in Ibadaah easily and only Al – Qawi is to be praised,
When hearts are awakened, souls nourished and Awesomly higher is the Imaan,
That’s the time to know, it’s the powerful month of Ramadaan!
Ahlen Ya Ramadaan! Ahlen Ya Ramadan!

Where the long Taraaweehs are a wonderful overwhelming experience,
Where you stand for the Qiyaams, hoping only for His rewards and forgiveness,
When the enchanting Recitations of the Imaam makes you go all numb and awe,
When every second you feel the perfection of your Lord, who doesn’t have a flaw,
When people from different races stand shoulder to shoulder, to bow down and worship the only creator, Ya Salaaam!
That’s when it hits you, and you begin to feel the true spirit of Ramadaan!
Ahlen Ya Ramadaan! Ahlen Ya Ramadaan!

With blessings surrounded from all the sides along with the beautiful ni’maas around,
Delighted is that moment, when together we submit, prostrating on the ground,
Lets aspire high, pray with sincerity and live by the Qura’an,
It’s a golden opportunity since pathetically caged is the Uncle Shaytaan,
Yes! Its Ramadaan! Its Ramadaan!
With tears in our eyes and joys in our hearts, we welcome you Ya Ramadaan!
Ahlen Ya Ramadaan! Ahlen Ya Ramadaan!
