In the Honour of Our Beloved Prophet.. (Peace be Upon Him)

Flawlessly hand-carved into a rounded string
held in unity under the nature of
His Majestic Remembrance
and in repeated callings of
His Beloved Prophet,
In the Mercy of His Peace and Ultimate Serenity
we pray
give gratitude
and attempt
in our weakest form
in our humanly instinctive defects
to emulate
his Grace
thirty-three times
three times
of ninety-nines
with a remaining
pearl-like token to return once again
back to His Infinite realm,
in absolute admission
to His Oneness.

In his tranquil trustworthiness,
we transpire in aspirational inspirations;
In his most just of affirmations,
we transpire in aspirational inspirations;
In his most delightful of presences,
we transpire in aspirational inspirations;
In his most sheer crystalized character,
we transpire in aspirational inspirations;
In his loving tenderness,
we transpire in aspirational inspirations;
In his sincere passion to capture Heaven in one's belief
we transpire in aspirational inspirations;
In every way we are unable to comprehend his nature
we transpire in aspirational inspirations...

And again

we return,
forehead kneeling in His unfathomed Kingdom

in an obligation

of seventeen prostrations

too little to come close to

pardon our perpetual faulty misgivings
in a reminder of our finite, limited bounded natures
to call
His Name
ninety-nine
in multifaceted reflections
named by the Creator
the One
to believe
manifest
and uphold
His Prophet's most intricate
teachings
unto learners passed
through generations
and millennia's
that will never reach
his musk-like fragrant
filling every breath
with absolute
mercy.

In the cries of the newborn
we recite
Al-Shahada -- a Testimony of Faith,
Guided by the last
Prophet
the Most Beloved
of Prophets
Ahmed

Mostafa
Taha

Ya Sin

Waheed

Abul Qasim

Tahir
Noor
Mohammed, Salah Allahu 3ailihi Wasalam..
in unison with a call
towards Mecca,
to our Maker,
Giver,
Creator,
and Grantor of life
turning not simply our bodies
but meaningless without
our hearts and souls
towards our sole-purpose.

In a day

like today

our Beloved Mother

Aminah, May Allah Bless her..

illuminated with a light

once brilliantly radiated Abdullah [RDA]'s face

birthed through a soul

unlike any other

in a connected union,

today we are thankful

elevated

blessed

enriched

and

forever lost

without his Message

our Beloved Messenger.

اللهم صلى وسلم على سيدنا وحبيبنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم
