Mola Ali a.s

Man whom you call Ali,
By God! There is no man like Ali.
Man of wisdom, man of truth.
Man who defended Islam before his youth.

Man whose patience surpasses his bravery.
Man whose kindness is extraordinary.
Bitter to hypocrites and unjust,
Man whose peace has never burst.

Man whose valour accompanies wisdom.
Man who nurtured true freedom.
Whose words portray a part of his character.
What a man! What a calibre!

Man whose patience is seldom admired,
Something that kept the nation tied.
In the battlefield, in his tranquility.
Man who defines what is Bravery.

Man whose generosity is unmatched.
Man whose eloquence is par perfect.
Who rejected the world for it's temporary
Man who bought God's Will against a "charity"

Man of love, man of values
Man whose legacy still continues.
The two extremes where coincide,
Man of this eminence is my guide!

What I can say for your praise,
My scrambled words will soon erase.
Yet, upon hearing them, I pray;
"Its beautiful!",  My Mola says!

Wishes

I want to travel I want to explore,
I want to feel the scent of shore,
I want to cross the lands and store,
Memories of beautiful birds that tore,
The heart of wind and reach the door,
That leads to the purpose of their soul.

I want to stop and meet the men,
And learn how to climb a ben,
Of human ego and arrogance, so vain,
And turn their hearts to Ĺove and pen.
How love transforms a king to slave.
How hatred ruins a beautiful fate.

I want to read all the books at night,
See through the canvas of light,
Light that guides the wise, the knight,
Opt all that a wise might,
Enduring all the pains of growth
I want to become a star so bright.

I want to speak the bitterest words
To those who speak swords not words.
Those who feel never the swords,
can reach their necks, if they were birds;
flying too high, away from the floods
They deluded themselves in both the worlds!

I want to tell you all the stories
Stories of warriors and knights
Stories of selfless and right
Stories of helplessness and fright
Stories with power to instill
the qualities of a man of Light

I want to answer all the questions
that keep you disturbed in solitude
questions that are food for soul.
questions about your goal
questions about love and hate
questions about a friend or mate

Devotee of Life : Mother

Bliss, marvel, avatar of resillience;
Shall I call her epitome of love?
Any nicely quoted saying for her,
Or a masterpiece admiring her brillience.

My worthless words cant praise enough,
Nor can they thank.
THY matchless creation, the "Devotee of Life".
Mother; a treasure, a being so tough.

What I call the hands of one,
who raises us up; care without lust.
Delicate, yet stronger than strong.
Tired and hurt, yet steady for you lifelong.

What I can remember is just so small.
How she smiled watching me crawl.
How she picks me whenever I fall.
How she sews for me, the best of all.

How she taught me what she couldn't read.
How she became my strongest shield.
When people came believing that I'll fall,
It was her belief that kept me tall.

How she walked miles without a halt.
How she got me back from hopeless vault.
Her prayers rewrote my miserable fate.
She's my biggest inspiration, to date.

Ami, maa and sometimes mummy,
I can't thank you enough for this journey.
Niether can I forget your pain and tears,
That brought me back to this "Lovely Affair".

Who is Hussain?

Who is Hussain? Hussain ibn Ali, the man who took the ultimate stand to spread good values and prevent evil, the man who sacrificed everything but saved humanity from becoming obsolete. Hussain ibn Ali, the grandson of Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.w) paid the price of saving human values, in 681 AD. He refused allegiance with the tyrant and evil-practicing ruler of his time Yazid and made the path of right and wrong distinct and well-defined.

Hussain Ibn Ali and his companions have shown the best example in the course of history that how to stood firm and confident for what you believe in. They accepted their brutal killing after three days of hunger and thirst, but their courage, valor, self-discipline and patience did not decrease an inch even in the hardest times. They continued practicing gratitude and kindness even with their enemies. Hussain Ibn Ali and his companion are no doubt, a perfect example of living a free and fearless life.

World commemorates this ultimate sacrifice of Hussain ibn Ali on 10th Moharram (Ashur) every Islamic year. People from every region and every religion recall the heart-throbbing incident of Karbala and the great sacrifice of Hussain Ibn Ali and his companions, in their own ways. A huge crowd gathers at the shrine of Hussain while huge processions are carried out all over the world, as a protest to the brutal killing of Hussain Ibn Ali and his fellows. On this day, people pledge to continue the Legacy of Hussain ibn Ali and keep practicing his teachings.

Hussain Ibn Ali is the light of guidance for every single human on the globe. Whenever and wherever, a person stands against an evil force, Hussain Ibn Ali becomes his inspiration. Be it a matter of standing against tyranny of others or be it a matter of standing beside the oppressed, the personality of Hussain Ibn Ali gives us courage and self-belief that if you are following the path of truth, you will be succeeded even if the whole world comes against you. .

Hussain indeed revitalized the human values with his blood. Today, when the world seeks freedom, either with the name of self-freedom or numerous freedom movements, the great sacrifice of Hussain Ibn Ali is true benchmark for all freedom-seekers. Hussain ibn Ali is no doubt the symbol of freedom; the greatest of human values. 

On the clouds it revealed

Suspended between two worlds,With lives between clouds and winds,Left in aweI ponder and feelHow HE runs the worlds!How HE soothes the souls!How HE closes the hearts,That never knew each other?

Jumbled Words Set Straight



A devastating thunderstorm of words,
Ready to break out and bust up,
Everything that comes its way.
Soon it ended up,
In a painful teary flood,
Harmless and worthless,
To everyone that comes her way.
