A is for Allah
Lord of the Universe, who is One
He made the earth, stars, and sun

Bilal is that tall, brave African man
Islam freed him and gave him iman

Black, white, red, yellow, and brown
Better than the jewels in a crown
Laughing or crying, short or tall
Allah loves children, one and all

Remembering Allah all nights and days
By giving Him our thanks and praise
Thank Allah with "Al Hamdulillah"
And praise Him with "Subhanallah"

That which the Muslims call Iman
Is in the heart of the believing man
Will come from his lip and hand
Love for Allah pouring out like sand

To Prophet Muhammad (S) he did appear

The home for Muslim's souls above

Because we know it is the best way

First house of Allah in Makkah was made
By Ibrahim and Isma'il the stones were laid
Millions of believers from every race

A precious gift from Allah to you
Don't waste it, he knows what you do
Don't chase pleasure or forget Allah
No matter how little, say "Alhamdulillah"
M is for Muhammad
Peace be upon him, Abdullah's son
From Allah's enemies he did not run
Of all the Prophets, he was the last
Islam his message which we hold fast

Peace be upon him, a Prophet who was very good
Allah told him to build an ark, fast as he could
Take pairs of animals and the believers-all
The flood was coming and the waves would be tall!
O is for Obedience
It is the duty of each Muslim to obey
The Qur'an and the Sunnah all the way
Go for Hajj, give Zakah, fast, and pray

And the devil it cuts like a knife
Prayer five times a day is a must

Of all His messages, it is the last
Perfect for present, future, and past

For Muslims this blessed month of fasting
Is to celebrate Allah's love everlasting
All day, no food, nor drink, nor evil deeds

Read them and trust in Al-Rahman
Do you know ten of them that you can say?
Knowing them will help you pray

La ilaaha illallah, Allah is the only one
There is no partner with Him, nor son
Allah is the answer to all that we need
Watch your heart and tongue, He knows every deed

The Muslim community, which Muhammad (S) found
The brotherhood of Islam made it sound
Allah's laws in the Qur'an and Sunnah
Are to help everyone in the Ummah

It is the help from Allah to you
His guidance in everything you do
Work and prayer a Muslim does need
To celebrate Allah's victory, indeed!
W is for Wudu'

Because by Allah we are always seen
Whenever you hear the call of athan
Prepare and come pray as soon as you can

X is not easy for us to rhyme
So, we'll not waste much of your time
In higher math, X is hard to find
But Allah's path is clear even to the blind

Peace be upon him, a good man in a wicked town
He ran to the sea and a whale gobbled him down
By the mercy of Allah, he was saved to tell
His people to become good and obey Allah well

It is the way we each begin
Free from worldly sin
So, don't let yourself forget
Keep out of the devil's threat!
