He slept on a mat of rushes
But the crown of Chosroes lay beneath the feet of his followers
He chose the nightly solitude of Mount Hira’
And founded a nation, law and government
He passed his nights with sleepless eyes
That his Millet might sleep on Chosroes throne
In the hour of battle, iron was melted by the flash of his sword
At prayer time, tears fell like drops of rain from his eyes
In his prayer for Divine help, his Amen’ was a sword
Which extirpated the lineage of kings
He inaugurated a new Order in the world
He brought the empires old to an end
In his sight the high and the low were one
He sat with the slave at table one
He burnt clear the distinctions of birth and clan
His fire consumed all this trash and bran
Muhammed (ﷺ) gave us the miracle, the Quran
And now a 1/4 of the world follow Islam
He is our role-model, the best of mankind
And has left the Quran and his Sunnah behind
Read the Quran as much as you can
The words of Allah (SWT) for the guidance of man
And follow our Prophet’s Sunnah, when eating and dressing
And send him salutations and many a blessing
~ Allama Iqbal & Farhat
...He came to mankind to show us the way
And insya Allah, we'll meet him...we'll meet him one day...
