Dear sisters,
Alhamdulillah, our first collective poem is finished. Shout

to all of the poets who contributed to make this beautiful poem (a list of the contributing poets (and their lines) is listed below the poem insha'Allah). And now....the poem: "A Journey Like No Other"

It is a journey like no other,
All are equal - sisters and brothers.

Assembling together
from far and near

To worship Allah,
We are finally here.

Tawaf around the kabah, wuquf in Arafah,
Our hearts filled with joy, hope, and fear.

Wrapped in simple garments
And sleeping within white tents

A place with much history for all Muslims to learn
To soften our hearts and seek forgiveness Muslims yearn.

An ending of innocent spoken words bouncing from my tongue
But a journey that's forever for all old and young.

O Allah, accept our Hajj and open to us the doors of Your paradise
And as we leave Your house, save us, our Lord, from avarice and vice.
