![And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], except as a mercy to the worlds. Holy Quran - 21:107](jpg/quran/qurans21a107.jpg)

When Islam was only a custom. They said "say La IIaha Illala Allah,.. And pray, you'll go to Heaven." Ah, how simple, no struggle in this, Just a word, and simple act. Thereafter I'm absorbed in this world again, With my 'assured' place in Paradise intact. But this was not to be my fate For ALLAH chose to guide my heart. I learnt of a man who struggled so hard When his mission was from the start. The story of someone who had morals, Spoke gently, kindness he knew. Never fearing to say what's right, His conviction in ISLAM was true. The touch of his hand was as soft as silk To comfort a crying child. To mend his clothes, or do the chores, Never complaining, he always smiled. His smell was always of musk, And cleanliness he kept at his best. Stark contrast with the heroes of today, Who stink of beer and sweat. He held the hands of his companions. Unashamed to play with many children. So modest, so humble, a perfect example, That strangers could not recognise him. His eyes slept little for nights were precious, His prayers he treasured much greater. To pray Tahajjud in the depths of night, Seeking forgiveness, and nearness to his Creator. He broke his tooth for me at Uhud, And bled for me at Ta'if. He cried for me, tears of concern, Just so I could have this belief. His enemies admired his teachings, Uniting every religion, every clan. Till ISLAM came to every corner of the world, O, but indeed he was only a man. To own a house, or build his wealth Was not his main priority. To establish ISLAM was more essential, To bring us under a Higher Authority. Don't you want him to plea for your case, When before ALLAH-The Judge-you stand? Don't you wish to be around his fountain, A burning desire to drink from his hand? So I love him more than all creation, My Leader, my Humble Prophet. Muhammad (Pbuh) was a mercy to all mankind, And to me, he is the leader. |
Tamil Poem written by Mugavai Rafeek
May Allah give us the righteous leaders who fear no one but Allah. Aameen!
Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) said, "Look at those who are below you. Do not look at those who above you. That will be suitable for you so that you do not disregard the blessing ALLAH has bestowed upon you."
"Make relations with those who cut you off, and do good to people, even though they harm you, and speak the truth, even if it is against yourself."
