Proud to Be a Muslim

I have searched about Islamic poem and nasheed for my children. I saw one nasheed "Proud to be a Muslim" by Hafiz Kamal Uddin. This nasheed has very good meaning that made me think, "If we are proud to be a Muslim, we should please Allah by following the command of Allah and the teaching of the prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasalam."

By only listen and sing to this nasheed without practicing Islam doesn't mean that we are proud to be Muslim. The nasheed has good meaning and it can remind us that how lucky we are that Allah shows us His Mercy to understand Islam and have Islam as our religion.

I am really grateful to Allah Ta'ala that shows mercy upon me by guiding me in the right path. I converted to Islam 10 years ago. Because of Allah's mercy, I have become a good Muslim and I know that Islam is the best and I must be proud to be a Muslim by following the teaching of the prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. Our characters, our dress, our daily life should be distinguised from non-Islam. Many people say many bad things about Islam as they don't know how good this religion is. If they know and understand the real teaching of Islam, they will never refuse Islam. May Allah grant us Taufiq. Ameen.
