An Ode to
PROPHET MUHAMMAD ﺻﻠﻰ ﷲ ﻋﻠﯿﮫ وﺳﻠﻢ
Posterity is indebted to Thee, O Revolutionary Man!
Reverently for whom hath prayed the earlier clan.
Ousted Thou injustice and brought men to Allah’s path,
Prayed even for foes who did persecute & bitterly plot.
History is replete with heroes; great men wert there,
Ever before or even after none equalled Thee & did any fare,
To You humanity owes much; You are Allah’s Mercy & Grace.
Man is judged, said Thee, by piety - not by colour or race.
Unlettered You were but taught the world what knowledge is!
Helped man know what the purpose of his creation is!
Allah is One, follow His laws & worship not men, stone or flame;
Made things clear, so that in Hereafter humanity shouldn’t blame.
Man is Allah’s vicegerent, in all human spheres.
Above remains the Almighty to judge, ever seeing, everywhere,
Disastrous would be man’s end who discard and don’t care.
Salamun Alaika Ya Ayyuhan Nabiyy
Peace be upon Thee, O the honourable Prophet!
