A tribute to Dr. Allama Iqbal
***************************************
Oh the great soul of Dr. Iqbal!
I salute the divinity of your vision;
That always echoed an inspired voice,
I find no words to explain your horizon.

Your verses give me a miraculous thought,
I feel, as from the skies, is coming the sound;
Your mind and heart were full of sacred passion,
In you, the fragrance of my Prophet , I have found.

I think, you must be so happy to know,
On every occasion, we mention your name;
But to follow your message is not easy for us,
We only cram it : It is our disgrace and shame.

From  ‘Qura’n and Modern Jurisprudence’

************************************************

‘ It is my unshakable conviction that if  anyone goes  through the bare meaning  of Qur’an with a totally unprejudiced mind , they would but ridicule those  who talk of ‘reforms’ in Islamic law  as a necessary condition for the Muslims  to be able  to compete with modern civilization, or those who claim the supremacy  of occidental  legal or other philosophies. Muslim jurists, scientists and philosophers,till about two centuries back, had established  their excellence in every field of learning, and , no doubt, the real daemon or inspiration behind them was the Qur’an and the life of Prophet(S.A.W.). There were schools of thought, as also the   differences  regarding interpretation  on various issues,but they were based on mutual accommodation, and not on mutual condemnation. Moreover, none of the earlier jurists or philosophers  ever claimed that  the religious doctrines propounded by him within the specific set of circumstances  should be extruded  into the radically changed conditions for all the time to come. Their search for knowledge  and their inquisitiveness  to unravel the mysteries  of universe  and hidden depth of Quran through rationalism  were untiring . Dogmatism, orthodoxy and  literalism which are the only three traits  of contemparary  maulvis never blurred the penetrating eyes and prescient vision of Muslim scholars.’

Oh Masjide Al-Aqsa! ( On Shabe Meiraj,27,Rajab)    

 Subhanallazee- Asra  be-Abdihee  lailam-minal Masjidil-Harame ilal Masjidil-Aqsa.

************ ********* ********* ********* ********* *******************

 Still the sacred words of ‘Subhanallazee- Asra’,

Are a living  testament  to your exalted glory ;

Still you  revive  in the  minds of  the Faithful ,

The Truthfulness of the  Journey and its story .

Still I can smell the fragrance of my Prophet ,

From the winds touching your walls and roof ;

Still your ambiance and the surrounding aura ,

Speak of  his   Ascension as a  towering proof .

What an irony! You are now crying with pain ,

Under the  unholy siege of your barbaric foes ;

Sura Bani-Israel is opening with  your praise ,

But the nation of Israel is adding to your woes .

Amongst your believers are those mighty kings ,

Before  whom  their people  tremble  with fear ;

Who always pretend to love ‘sharia’and Qu’ran ,

But to your anguish, they have turned a deaf ear .

On Labour Day ( May, 1 )

Oh the labourers!

Hidden  in the glory of this enthralling world,
There are the drops of your blood and sweat;
But your fortunes have remained as they were,
Your accomplishments are the rich men’s feat.

Cry of Masjid Al-Aqsa (on Shabe Meiraj)

                                   

                                      * ********************

 

                                          Oh my shameless heirs! 

                              Oh the Muslims of the world ! 

                            I wish , you were an extinct race, 

                          Before I could see this  assault on me . 

                       Your faith is now vested in the will of those, 

                     Who want to change me into the ruins for ever, 

                  I am a  witness to  your gallantry ,courage and valor, 

                You had always brandished swords and embraced death, 

             To seek my emancipation from the brutal and cruel hands. 

              Why now you have become so meek, coward and timid? 

                You no more deserve for the words like manly vigour, 

                 The humanity  is laughing at   your  feminine trait. 

                   My rubbles will give the way to the Holy Haram, 

                      I know you will be like what you are this day, 

                       You will only  recite ‘ Alam Tara Keifa fala’. 

                           If you fail to act at this historic moment, 

                             I will become dragons in your graves, 

                               The Dooms Day will hold its worst, 

                                 The ferocious inferno in the Hell, 

                                   Will be  ready to welcome you , 

                                      Prophet will hate your sight. 

                                          Oh my shameless heirs!

Oh Masjid Al-Aqsa ! We All Are Weeping (On Shabe Meiraj)
( From my poetry book ' Voice of Heart' )

***********************************************
Oh Masjid Al-Aqsa ! We all are weeping ,
But do not expect from us anything more ;
You can see , our hearts are full of pain ,
Tears have made our eyes red and sore .

Never think ! We are not your pious heirs ,
But our souls are dead and hands are weak ;
Having no power to defend our life and honor ,
What can we do beyond our wail and shriek? .

I think , you are deluded with some of us ,
Yes, people call them as Rulers and Kings ;
You might be hoping from their grandeur ,
But you take them like birds with no wings .

They are faithful servants of their Masters ,
The height of their mind is only their Throne ;
Their everything of which one can even think ,
Is a fiction : They have nothing of their own .

Now listen ! let me confide a secret in you ,
Have an intent gaze into the ranks of your foes ;
You can easily perceive your emerging saviour ,
Who will ease your grief and relieve your woes .

What is ‘gender equality’ ?

*****************************

Some people are shameless to the core,

They want to enjoy an open and naked dance;

For them, ‘gender equality’ has only this brand,

Obscenity must look with every perverted glance.

My two poems  on

 Mother's  Day ( May, 8)

****************************** *************

ON THE  DEATH  OF MY  MOTHER ( April,28,2009)

************ ********* ********* ***

She was a shield against  the Divine Chastisement,

When my sinful life invoked the Almighty's wrath;

Her prayers for Mercy  always  placated  His Fury,

Under her feet I used to see the glimpse of Paradise .

She was an oasis  in this stormy desert of life,

When the  blasts of   winds left me bewildered;

Her face always gave me the  hope  and zest of life,

Under her  guidance I  found  the meaning of 'love'.

Alas!   She left me alone in this forlorn world ,

In the dawn of  Friday , April , 24  this year;

Reciting the eternal words,with her  finger raised,  

She returned from this transit to her Guardian Lord.

But the day  brought for me the most lethal blow,

With none to protect , now I am fearful of my sins;

My childhood has been snatched in a ruthless way,

As I will never hear the sweet words 'my dear son'.

************ ********* ********* ********* **

( 2 )                      Why I am Weeping on Mother's Day?    **** ************ ********* ******* From the streams of messages on various groups, I have  intuition that there is Mother's Day around; What it is, and how it came ?, I know nothing of it, But each of them is breaking my heart into pieces. I had also a mother, so caring, lovely and affectionate, She left me  a year ago.Everyone is to leave this world; But I will definitely curse my fate till I am alive, As I was not beside her during the last days of her life. I reached her when she was lying silent and breathless, It was my first meeting with her when I was weeping ; And she did not stretch her arms to welcome her son, Alas! Alas! Alas! How unfortunate I was, and I am.

Welcome and Prayer for Ramadhan

( From my poetry book ' Voice of Heart')

 I welcome you, Oh the sacred month of  Ramadhan !

********************************************

With new sprouts of faith emerging in my barren heart,

With  the Unseen  showing the blaze of  my Final Goal,

With a   blissful blend of  belief , joy and fear,

With a Divine aura  overpowering  my mind and soul,

 I welcome you, Oh the sacred month of Ramadhan!

 Your name brings forth  a  flurry of soothing throbs,

From which  countless hopes of salvation arise;

Your name comes to the rescue of my worries and shame;

It seems to  blow  the breezes of the gardens of  Paradise .

 I welcome you, Oh the sacred month of Ramadhan !

 May your advent  shower on this trembling world,

The heavenly serenity, lasting peace and  moral  grace;

May the first glimpse of your moon on the globe’s horizon,

Dissipate the dark and  threatening  clouds  from its face.

 I welcome you, Oh the sacred month of Ramadhan

******************************************

A Prayer For Ramadhan **************************** MAY the sacred moon of the coming holy month, Appear with an unprecedented glory and grace; To become the harbinger of a new watershed, Which transforms mankind's values and face. MAY the force of penitence,hunger and thirst, Conquer the vices of revenge,rancour and greed; To pave the way for love,affection and solicitude, Which make this humanity an angelic creed. MAY the showers of Divine Blessings in abundance, Give solace to the world, and make it meek and mild; To cover the angry globe with heavenly ambience, Which enfolds within itself each man,woman and child. *********************************************

A Tribute to Muhammad Ali

************************************

Oh the great hero of justice in modern times!

With your last breath an era has come to an end;

In you , I see the meaning of my Prophet’s words,

‘ The wall of races and colors has lost its place’.

It seems to be the part of some divine decree,

Emerging as a symbol of Muhammad and Ali;

Your vision, valor and probity proved your worth,

You became like an oasis in the barren desert.

Your name will inspire millions in the world,

Your image will always continue to frighten those,

Who think their birth has given them a superior right,

I wish your legacy may produce an unbreakable chain.
