Prophet
Muhammad (S.A.W)
What a year was 570 AD
A person was born, a prophet to be
Muhammed (saws) that was his name
People were misguided and thats when he came
He would go on to leave all the idols behind
He is an example to all of mankind
Rabbi al Awwal the 12th, that was the day
He came to this world to show us the way
He was born in Mecca, the holiest place
A life full of challenges he was to face
Abdullah (ra) his father, had by then passed
away
Leaving Amina (ra) his mother, in her arms he
lay
Haalima Sadia, took over his care
Until he was six, our prophet was there
His mother then died, he was left all alone
Abdul Muttalib (ra) his grand-dad then made him
his own
When our prophet was nine, his grandfather died
Abu Talib, his uncle, became his new guide
In his 20's, a merchant Muhammed (saws) became
by trade
Al-Amin, (the trustworthy) became his grade
Hazrat Khadija (ra) aged 40, became his bride
He was 25, with her by his side
To the poor,she gave away all her wealth
A dedicated wife in sickness and health
360 idols in the Kaaba, they were at that time
Our prophet realised that this was a crime
He would go to mount Hira,leaving behind his
wife
Reflecting and wondering about the meaning of
life
While thinking there in the midst of the night
He heard a loud voice which filled him with
fright
It was the angel Gibrail(as) who asked him to
read
Our prophet couldn't and didnt take heed
The angel embraced him and then asked him later
Read, Read in the name of the Creator
Who created man from a drop of blood
Our prophet couldn't read but at that time he
could
Our prophet rushed to the path straight ahead
He heard a voice from the heavens which said
Muhammed (saws) truly you are the messenger of
God
Muhammed (saws) was scared and thought this
quite odd
'Praise be to God' his wife said instead
''I know you've been chosen as God's messenger'
she said
And thus Khadija (ra) became the first woman of
islam
And over the next 23 years came the revelation,
the Quran
He preached to all people, every creed every
race
Yet so many hardships he had to face
There were fears for his life, then the Hijrat
took place
He then entered Medina, all by Allah's grace
He was greeted by the Ansaris who gave their
salaam
To him and his companians,the Sahaba ikram
Then came the battles, which were fought face to
face
Then the conquest of Mecca, Muhammed (saws)'s
birthplace
An Nasr was revealed, it's message was clear
Muhammed (saws) knew that his time was near
Everyone gathered to hear his last speech
little did they know how far Allah's message
would reach
Muhammed (saws) 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
He came to mankind to show us the way
