We don’t believe in ghosts, <br />And we don’t believe in ghouls, <br />We don’t believe in vampires, <br />And by costumes we’re not fooled. <br /> <br />We believe in our Creator, <br />We believe in the unseen, <br />So please understand, <br />We don’t practise Halloween! <br /> <br />Because Halloween, <br />Is not really our thing, <br />We hope you have fun, <br />But our bell, please do not ring! <br /> <br />For we are Muslim, <br />And though we like a joke, <br />Halloween is not for us, <br />We’re simple, peaceful folk. <br /> <br />We hope you have fun, <br />And don’t wish to offend, <br />We don’t celebrate, <br />But our smiles we do send! <br /> <br />We love to eat candy, <br />And we love to laugh and play, <br />But if you’re trick or treating, <br />Come back another day!<br /><br />Aisha Sherazi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/islamic-perspectives-on-haloween/
