A is for Allah

Lord of the Universe, who is One,
He made the earth, stars, and sun
He made angels to worship and pray,
He made man from a dab of clay

With its mountains, rivers, and seas,
Animals, birds, fruits, and trees
They all declare Allah's Might,
Following His laws, wills, and light

That which the Muslims call Iman,
Is in the heart of the believing man
Will come from his lip and hand,
Love for Allah pouring out like sand

To Prophet Muhammad (S) he did appear,
To bring mankind the Holy Qur'an so dear

The home for Muslim's souls above
The path to this heavenly place
Is faith in Allah's guidance and grace

A way of life for all of who,
Give to Allah the praise that is due
We worship and pray five times a day,
Because we know it is the best way

To his people Allah's word did he carry
By Allah's help, he made the sick well,
So people would believe what he had to tell

By Ibrahim and Isma'il the stones were laid
Millions of believers from every race,

Don't waste it, he knows what you do
Don't chase pleasure or forget Allah,
No matter how little, say "Al-Hamdulillah

Peace be upon him, a Prophet who was very good,
Allah told him to build an ark, fast as he could
Take pairs of animals and the believers-all,
The flood was coming and the waves would be tall

It is the duty of each Muslim to obey,
The Qur'an and the Sunnah all the way
Go for Hajj, give Zakah, fast, and pray,
And to your parents do not say, "Nay!"

And the devil it cuts like a knife
Prayer five times a day is a must,
In Allah, you should put your trust

A blessing and guide for all of mankind,
In it Allah's message you will find
Of all His messages, it is the last,
Perfect for present, future, and past

For Muslims this blessed month of fasting,
Is to celebrate Allah's love everlasting
All day, no food, nor drink, nor evil deeds,
Pray and read Qur'an, to heaven this leads

One hundred and fourteen in the Qur'an,
Read them and trust in Al-Rahman,
Do you know ten of them that you can say?
Knowing them will help you pray

La ilaaha illallah, Allah is the only one,
There is no partner with Him, nor son
Allah is the answer to all that we need,
Watch your heart and tongue, He knows every deed

The Muslim community, which Muhammad (S) found,
The brotherhood of Islam made it sound
Allah's laws in the Qur'an and Sunnah,
Are to help everyone in the Ummah

It is the help from Allah to you,
His guidance in everything you do
Work and prayer a Muslim does need,
To celebrate Allah's victory, indeed!

We must keep our minds and bodies clean,
Because by Allah we are always seen
Whenever you hear the call of athan,
Prepare and come pray as soon as you can

X is not easy for us to rhyme,
So, we'll not waste much of your time
In higher math, X is hard to find,
But Allah's path is clear even to the blind

Peace be upon him, a good man in a wicked town,
He ran to the sea and a whale gobbled him down
By the mercy of Allah, he was saved to tell,
His people to become good and obey Allah well

It is the way we each begin,
Free from worldly sin
So, don't let yourself forget,
Keep out of the devil's threat!
