Wednesday, 9 July 2014 In Praise of Nobility (Eleven) Is he sane him who the Qur’an hate? Must he this noble book burn? Shame on him whom with his pen draws A man, praised, noble, blessed Shut your mouth you yeller of insults Nay! You do not know this man whom you slander Abraha and his troupe still stand a lesson Had they not perished even in the year of his birth? It was to him that this beauty was sent Salaam and Rahma upon him should rain Should I tell to your ears what this beauty is? The most reliable handle to hold The teacher of guidance onto the right path The divine decree of life’s purpose The spiritual banquet for the slave It was to him that this beauty was revealed Salaam and Rahma upon him should rain Should I tell to your eyes what this beauty is? The opener of the door of reflection This beauty that Osman Nuri Topbas describes Show me the adherents of this beauty Show me men and women of dignity and honour It is the music to which the wise soul sings The rhythm to which the ponderer dances It was to him that this beauty was unwrapped Salaam and Rahma upon him should rain Should I tell to your heart what this beauty is? This beauty was the Qur’an It is the word that grips the strong with fear Fear of a day when there shall be no questions but answers It is the sound that fills weak minds with hope Hope of a day when His Mercy in abundance will fall If this is not beauty, what is? It was to him that this beauty was unravelled Salaam and Rahma upon him should rain And Aysh, she was asked What is the life of this noble one? The Qur’an! The Qur’an! The Qur’an The life of this blessed one is this beauty In love he had lived with this beauty In love he had died in this beauty In love he had left with his sahaaba this beauty And in love they lived and died in this beauty It was to him that this beauty was given Salaam and Rahma upon him should rain Read this man, read this beauty Learn this man, learn this beauty Walk this man, talk this man Walk this beauty, talk this beauty He was this man, he was this beauty It was to him that this Qur’an was disclosed Salaam and Rahm upon him should rain This is the nobility about which I sing This is the nobility I live to praise This is the nobility whose love drunken me This is the nobility I wish to see This is the nobility I pray to touch Salaam and Rahma upon him should rain RMRS (July, 2014, Ramadaan Eleven) A poem each day of Ramadaan in praise of the Rasuulul Laah suallal Laahu alayhi wa sallam entitled: IN PRAISE OF NOBILITY rubabawords.blogspot
