Dear ISRA
I’m really gonna miss ya
It wasn’t just knowledge that they taught ya
They also gave you the tools to improve your character
And work towards a greater hereafter.
The staff were more like family than teachers
As dear to me as my own brothers and sisters
From humble Mehmet, Salih and Derya
To beautiful souls like Masheed, Rahil,
Zuleyha, Tamana and sweet Heather
I thank you all for your efforts and incredible nature
For being there mornings, evenings and generally whenever.
A special mention to my thesis supervisor, Dr Derya
I couldn’t have completed this milestone without ya.
Studying at ISRA was such a pleasure
I pray I can take more classes at my own leisure
Without worrying about exam pressure
Or having to monitor my blood pressure
And thank you to my classmates
Who made the experience even better
I will sincerely treasure
All the warm memories I’ve made at ISRA
Memories that will stay with me
From now till forever
My experiences at ISRA
Have made me all the more richer
And I pray that because of it
We’ve pleased Allah
And together are granted gardens in Jannah
