My Mother

 

The Heavens and Earth bear witness that you are my mother,

Tender care and loving arms saw to your way up to Heaven,

God Himself is satisfied with you for the love you bestowed on your children,

Every sacrifice on lonely nights, shed tears of Mercy for my mother,

She is the Pearl of life,

The foundation of the Heavens lies in her merciful heart,

My Mother is the Mother of Mankind,

She is the fortune of every heart thirsty of the love of Allah,

She hides her tears and smiles brightly to overcome her sadness,

Every joy becomes hers once she submits herself to God’s will,

My Mother; yes indeed she is My Mother,

She goes by the name of Divine Grace

and she perceives the difficulties of every broken soul,

She soothes them with the words of Allah,

She prays late in the night amidst her flowing tears

To seek nearness with her Lord, her beautiful Friend,

Though we each keep to ourselves,

In our heart divine love flows for each other,

She is my mother, my sweet Mother,

How lucky I am, I cannot tell,

Through pricks she walks ahead,

To show us children the way to Salvation,

Many a night I cannot deny she prays for our welfare,

By God’s Grace, we are well-kept in the cocoon of divine love,

By our mother’s prayer we live,

Thank you O Lord for bestowing upon us children,

The best Mother a child can ask for.

 

This poem is dedicated to my mother, Fazli Amena

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.}
(Holy Quran-16:125)

{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)

The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]

The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)  also said, "Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all."
[Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
