"Shikwa" is a lengthy poem. In the interest of attention spans on internet, it has been split into two halves using a unique method. Its as you would unzip a DNA strand and get two halves. The hope is that, insha'Allah, the nature of "Shikwa", its meaning and its feel remains intact in both halves. The openings and the endings are kept same on both halves on purpose. Excellent Excellent Translation by an unknown person...Anonymous. May Allah (swt) tremendously bless him/her for this effort. Thank you ...Thank you...Thank you

The veins of muslims don't carry the same blood anymore (same as earliest generations). That same desire and the same heart (as earlier generation) is not there anymore. Daily Prayers, fasting, sacrifice and Hajj ... ...These are there. Its YOU who is not there anymore.

Where does my "life of the party" spirit comes from. Where does my thunder, my asset comes from. All of these comes from places within the hidden folds of a heart. God only knows, where the place of the heart itself is.

With my message, there is disturbance in you being. Disturbance that is quaking the idols of your soul. Hoor and angels are within my reach of my visions, I interrupt your being with my insights. Though i am constraint in time in space my ideas are shaking up muslims and non-muslims alike. At times my sahrp sight pierced through the heart of the matters.' At times it got entangled in its own empty ideas What have you done, oh God...you have exposed me to me. I was the only secret in the chest of this universe.

The term "Ishq" :A state of a heart when it is captivated/drenched in utmost love...to be solely driven by extreme love. Rough translation: Your cries are not ripe yet. hold 'em in your chest for little bit more. Intellect matures when it thinks about pros and cons. Ishq, if thinks about pros and cons, is still immature. Ishq fearlessly jumped into the firey blaze set by Namrood. Intellect is, still standing on the sideline, just watching. As soon as Ishq gets message, it gets going on what it has been asked to do. Intellect keeps contemplating the message. The wine-giver got mad when you politely told that you dont drink. He said... "you're still thinking about the outcomes" (i.e. come on now! drink the wine which gets you high on Ishq).
