The friendly chit-chat abruptly halted
Traditions and values altered
Music welcomed her as she entered
And I cursed why I attended
I don’t know the difference between Bieber and Zain
But it’s music, simple and plain
Now I had to decide
To walk out and be accused of pride
Or remain seated as if there’s no harm
Yet on the mimbar I say music is haraam
If I leave the function, the host feels abused
If I remain, I am accused
Hypocrisy and double standards they’ll shout
Thus my sermons will have no more clout
I hope you understand my dilemma
And stop thinking that I need an enema
Yes we grace the occasion with recitations from the Qur’aan
But not in a manner that pleases Shaytaan
Just as haram wealth may not be given in charity
Qur’aanic recitation alongside music is also a blasphemy!
