THIS WORLD IS A LESSON

This world is truly a lesson,
We learn from it every single day.
Whether wealthy, powerful, or poor,
No one lives beyond their destined time.

Let us tread the world with care,
And live with honesty and trust.
Let us stop insulting our fellow beings,
And live in peace with one another.

Let us reflect on our end,
For it’s not our beginning—
But our end that truly matters.
May we all have a beautiful ending.

-

Allah has a plan for you. You are exactly where He wants you to be. Do not burden yourself with anxiety about the future — it lies in Allah's hands. Trust that His plan is always the best. Do your part sincerely, and leave the rest to Him. Even when you do not understand His wisdom, continue to trust Him wholeheartedly.

A Beacon of Progress — To Dr. Isah Mauzu

In Sokoto's land where the sun meets the sand,
Rose a leader with vision, both steady and grand.
With wisdom profound and a purpose so clear,
He charted new paths without yielding to fear.

Dr. Mauzu, a name now etched in our praise,
Has guided the State through reformative days.
Where tax once faltered and revenue strayed,
He built up the system, and balance was laid.

No longer do gaps in collections remain,
For he strengthened the channels with logic and brain.
He rallied the teams, both the seasoned and new,
And kindled a fire for the work they must do.

From the informal to formal, each sector he touched,
With policies firm and strategies clutched.
He championed compliance with fairness and might,
And brought hidden earnings into the light.

To the Governor's call, he answered with grace,
Putting Sokoto in a far better place.
And though quiet his voice, his work loudly speaks,
Of reform that lasted not only for weeks.

So here’s to the man who saw what could be,
Who harnessed the tides and strengthened the sea.
Dr. Mauzu, your service will long be revered—
A steward of growth, by all hearts endeared.

On Arafat Day

Upon the mount, so high and wide,
The faithful gather, side by side.
With hearts so pure, with hands held high,
They raise their prayers into the sky.

A day of mercy, hope, and grace,
A sacred, calm, and blessed place.
Tears may fall, but souls arise,
Forgiven under open skies.

For those who stand, and those who pray,
Arafat lights the pilgrim’s way.
A chance to start, to cleanse, renew
A day for hearts to turn what's true.

O Lord of all, so kind, so near,
Accept our cries, our love, our fear.
On Arafat, we seek Your face,
And find in You our truest place.

Acknowledge and accept your mistakes. Use them as lessons to grow, evolve, and become a better version of yourself. Remember, imperfection is part of being human—everyone stumbles at times. Be kind to yourself, learn, and move forward with wisdom and self-compassion.

-

Hard days are a test, but remember—Allah never burdens a soul beyond what it can bear. Trust His wisdom, even when the path seems unclear. With every hardship comes ease. Hold on to faith, keep moving forward—your patience is witnessed, your struggles are known, and relief is closer than you imagine.

-

Don’t worry about what people might be saying behind your back. If Allah is with you and guiding you, no one can stand against you. Focus on doing your best, and trust Him to handle the rest.

-

Life often brings storms of pain, moments of deep confusion, and trials that test your spirit. Sometimes, the heart aches so profoundly that no words can capture the sorrow. Other times, you wander through uncertainty, seeking answers that feel out of reach. Yet always remember: it is only Allah who can truly mend a broken heart.

Farewell, O Blessed Ramadan

O Ramadan, our dearest guest,
You came with light, with love, with rest.
You softened hearts, cleansed our souls,
And filled our nights with whispered goals.

With every sujood, our burdens eased,
With every fast, our faith increased.
Your days were mercy, nights so bright,
A month of guidance, pure delight.

But now you leave, our hearts do ache,
A void that only prayer can take.
We bid you farewell with tearful eyes,
Longing still for your blessed skies.

O Allah, accept what we have done,
Forgive our sins, bless everyone.
Let Ramadan’s light within us stay,
And guide our steps beyond this day.

Until we meet again next year,
We hold your lessons, strong and clear.
Farewell, O month so full of grace,
Forever cherished in our embrace.
