By Bushrah Olagunju
Let me be heard
Let my voice be seen
I am a girl child with ambitions
I do not seek recognition
Because I’m one on a mission
Let my place not be relegated
Let my relevance not be underestimated
I birth nations
I nurture giants in regions
Being a woman is a status I cherish in a million.
Let no girl live in bondage
Let no woman suffer in marriage
The thought of a miscarriage
Is never the wish of a woman in old age
For the status of a woman is sacrilege.
To all the women out there
Struggling to be here
At the same time there
As a daughter,wife or a mother
Know that life is fair.
The joys of childhood
The fears of womanhood
The tears of motherhood
Is the bond of sisterhood
That makes the best of you!
A Muslim woman that I am
It’s the best of status that can be
Being a Muslimah on the Deen
Respected and honoured,so it is
Being a Muslimah is the best deal
