Muslim Belal - Allah, The Prophet, My Mother lyrics

Mum always tried her hardest to make
Sure her son was focused
Mum always had a smile
No matter how slow I progressed
Mum would always say that her
Son was the best
So Mum never let me forget that
This life was a test
Raised in Christianity, I used to go church
Mum would drop me off to school
Then she’d rush off to work
And Mum saw her son change
When I turned nineteen
But she still loved me the same
When I converted to the deen

Obviously, I love Allah the
Most in this dunya
And then I love the Prophet and his Sunnah
But after my love for Islam
Comes the love for my mother
Definitely, I love Allah the
Most in this dunya
And then I love the Prophet and his Sunnah
But after my love for Islam
Comes the love for my mother

Mum was always asking me questions, "Son
How’d you do that?"
Mum would sit with me and
Watch DVDs of Ahmad Deedat
And slowly but surely
Mum would recognise the truth
And appreciate the changes that I
Made since my youth
Mum knew I was flying away
She wanted spend the day together
That was our moment, we went mosque together
And it was enough to make me smile
To see Mum with a hair-cover
And then she dropped the bomb
She wanted to take her shahadah allahu akbar

Obviously, I love Allah the
Most in this dunya
And then I love the Prophet and his Sunnah
But after my love for Islam
Comes the love for my mother
Definitely, I love Allah the
Most in this dunya
And then I love the Prophet and his Sunnah
But after my love for Islam
Comes the love for my mother

Oh Allah
Help me love my mum like she loves me
Do for my mum, half of what she’s done for me
Ameen
