The Heart of a Muslim - Zain Bhika

 



 

Looking up at the sky
Searching for world most high
He rejected the way of
Worshipping gods of clay
Prophet Ibrahim knew that Allah was near
And that the heart of a Muslim is sincere.

Under the hot burning sun
He declared God is One
Though with stones on his chest
His iman would not rest
The more one thing knew that right would conquer all
And the heart of a Muslim must be strong.

It’s the heart of a Muslim
Through the guidance of Islam
It makes you fair and kind and helpful
To your fellow man
So living as a Muslim means
That you must play a part
Allah looks not at how you look
But what is in your heart.

In a poor meek estate
Little food on our plate
Mother said she was glad
Always sharing what we had
When I asked how can we share what’s not enough
She said the heart of a Muslim is filled with love.
It’s the heart of a Muslim
Through the guidance of Islam
It makes you fair and kind and helpful
To your fellow man
So living as a Muslim means
That you must play a part
Allah looks not at how you look
But what is in your heart.

So living as a Muslim means
That you must play a part
Allah looks not at how you look
But what is in your heart.

He said it’s time you should know
You will learn as you grow
That some people around
Will do what’s there to bring you down
Father said to be a star that’s shining bright
For the heart of a Muslim does what’s right.

It’s the heart of a Muslim
Through the guidance of Islam
It makes you fair and kind and helpful
To your fellow man
So living as a Muslim means
That you must play a part
Allah looks not at how you look
But what is in your heart.

So whatever you do
Make sure your words are true
Honesty is the best
Because life is a test
Even if it hurts so much you want to cry
For the heart of a Muslim does not lie.
