"My name is Fuad Usman. Practicing Muslim (in sha Allah) and aspiring student of knowledge. I love being involved helping out the Muslim community. I'm currently President of UCD Islamic Society &  a committee member for Muslim Youth Leaders (MYL)., shout out😂.
Fun fact ehh..?  I love combat sports, I may be calm but I could still rock your jaw😂😂"


I don't normally have the strength or the courage

Engaging in everlasting struggles

The funny thing is...I actually thought I was winning,

Succeeding,

But

I have to face the truth

I am losing.

So much that - 

I start to see my enemy as my friend.

I need Your Help

For every sin I make, pricks my heart

But I'm stitching, sewing, weaving

But I can't seem to stitch fast enough

There is always another one to be made.

It leaves scars,

Battle wounds from my enemy

My enemy sleeps in my bed,

He eats my own food,

And we have the same friends,

So how do I defeat an enemy that is myself?

Who am I kidding, I know the answer!

I have the solution!

But I am Afraid, Ashamed

I know I shouldn't be

But,

I have been conditioned this way

The solution is simple,

But hard to implement,

And it shouldn't be

I should have asked for Your Help from the very beginning

I should have remembered the words You said to me

But I will from now on

Because...

Verily,

"In the remembrance of Allah do the believers find rest"
