Because...

Islam is my government
Sunnah my culture
Hijab is my traditional dress
Salam my language
Unity is my flag
Quran my constitution
Muslims are my people
All land is Gods land

Because..
Their hardship is my hardship
Their tears my tears
Their pain my pain
Their end my end

Because..
When the believers are sick
I am sick
When the religion is weak
I am weak
When the believers oppressed
I am oppressed

Because..
Even if they dont love me
I love them
Even if they dont know me
I love them
Even if they dont accept me
I love them
For their believing
For their crying to Allah
For their hoping
For the mercy of Allah
For the sake of Allah.

That's why it pains me
When muslims are afflicted
That's why it pains me
When they are oppressed
That's why it pains me
When they are misunderstood
Because it isn't "them" it's "us"

And that's why.
