Run For Cover - by Muslimah Poet

This is a poem from Nasheeds by Jamillah, read by me and her DAUGHTER Amira! If you like the poem there are many more where that came from, leave us a comment if you're interested in the books.

RUN FOR COVER!

You know what's not cool?
Wearing weave to deceive.
And you wouldn't tattoo your body,
If your a woman who believe.
Calling yourself dressed and your still naked.
Saying you got a career, and you're gon'na make it.
Oh Well,
Not to paradise.
Cause you're forbidden the smell.
Looks like you loose that right.
You're trying to make it to hell.
Better run for cover,
Grab your hijab.
Stop tran'na please brothers,
Who's not your dad.
Not husband, nor your uncle,
Or your immediate fam.
Be a covered up sister in Islam.
Represent, give the Da'wah
As much as you can.
When people see you they should see Islam.
Stay amongst the righteous,
Allah is with those,
Who do righteous deeds, and
Bad deeds they oppose.
Garden's beneath which rivers flow.
A reward for the servant,
And their face will glow.
For keeping their selves clean,
And their nur so bright.
Forbidden what is evil,
enjoining what right.
A non believer drains your faith,
Like a sponge drains water.
Don't keep company with kufars,
That is an order.
My advice to you my sister also,
tell another,
If you're not dressed right:
Go Run for Cover! Go Run for Cover!
Go Run for Cover! Go Run for Cover!
(c)NasheedbyJamillah
