Calling All Poets...Let us praise Muhammad (salallahu 'alaihi wasalam)

[~Barakah~]

In this thread we could all try and express our love for the Best of Creation, Muhammad Mustafa in the form of poetry...

One of us can start off the poem with a couple of lines and post it....then, , another person can add on the next few lines or even just one line and post it...and so on, until the poem is completed....

The lines we add do not necessarily have to rhyme with the lines in the previous post...you could start a new rhyme atogether if you wish..but we should aim to make the poem flow...

The topic is the praise of our Beloved Prophet Muhammad so no straying off topic please...

You do not have to be a poet to participate because Rasoolullah is a perfect example and His sunnah is inspiration enough for us all and His love resides in all our hearts...so let your hearts do the talking

Here are the starting lines:

Early one morning, in the city of Makkah
A light broke out that shone so bright
That all of Arabia lit up in delight.
This light was born to illuminate the night,
Allowing people to distinguish the wrong from right.
This light was a mercy for all mankind,
A Guide for every being and tribe worldwide,
This light was Muhammad, the Generous, the Kind...........

[~Barakah~]

nobody..??

looks like its just me then...

next few lines....

When idol worship was the norm
And ignorance ran rife,
When, straight after they were born,
Girls were buried alive......


Wassalaam

[UmmeGibrel]

It was his message that held
The message so clear
The strength of iman
In the One whose near

[~Barakah~]

beautiful.... ukhti...

next....

The message of peace and oneness of Allah,
Our Lord and Creator, Him we must fear…


Wasalaam

[Yasin176]

Only to Allah we must worship, only to Allah we must pray
And pray that in the right path we always stay.
The path shown to us by our beloved Prophet Muhammad
The mercy sent to mankind - our beloved Prophet Muhammad.

[UmmeGibrel]

The Quraishies lamented and called him a liar
Threw dust at his face
Apearant anger like fire
that burns the heart
yet his followers and himself
called out to their Allah in deep desire...

[Yasin176]

They (unbelievers) drove him out of the city of his birth
He is Muhammad - rahmat lil alameen - sent to Earth.
They jeered him, mocked him and made his fun
He is Muhammad - he continued to call on to Allah - The One
They tried luring him with wealth and women, even agreed to make him king
He is Muhammad - ignoring all this - only to Allahs worship he used to cling.

[UmmeGibrel]

this reminds me of the nasheed by Zain Bhikha:

it goes...

...Muhammad is, and always will be
the last and final prophet of Allah...

brother Yasin176 and sister Onlyfaith...beautiful words ...


The revelation would descend
And Muhammad would dispense
The words of His Lord,
So perfect and pure…
Enlightening hearts, opening the doors
To justice and truth for
Such are Allah’s laws…
Unequalled in excellence,
Neither a fault nor flaw.
What more could one ask for
When truth was being restored?


Wasalaam

[Julaybib]

Salaam.

What words are their to Reflect
The Beauty of my Beloved
The Fishes in the sea and the
Angels in Heaven, send salutations of respect.
In honor of my Beloved

What perfume can compare
To the fragrance of My Beloved
Nightingales spins a song of yearning.
The Butterfliess dance through the air.
In admiration of My Beloved

The echoes of love from Medina,
Float in the Gentle Breeze
remembrance of him
In the swaying of the Trees.,
The hymns of praise
In the rustling of leaves.
each expressing their Love
For My Beloved
