Sisters In Islam

No longer shackled by the oppression

Of mini-skirts and see-thru shirts

My sisters stand proud

Covered by cloth and more so by conviction

Submission to Allah, they stand apart from the crowd

The taunts, the jeers, the stares and the leers

Never fazing or dissuading them from following the deen

Real women they be, the epitome of feminity

Strong, secure, complete human beings

Not slaves to the world of fashion

Which is always askin’

For women to dress as less as they can

Their hijab is for the sake of Allah

In imaan and taqwa

They refuse to be objectified by a man

Such are my sisters in Islam
