Mercy of Lord!

By Ahmed Ali 4 Sha 35 ◦︎ 2 Jun 14
Pen that lifts! Ink that flows-reflecting-to teach us all,
ways to find
Lord- in all humbleness begging-only before truth to befall!
Lost! Seeking the one who created from clot of blood!
Asking to be
Reminded of Gifts! Working to break this life-existence code

Prayer that lifts from the heart as strange bayaan,
A Voice from heaven,
reveal Fabi-ayyi ala-i rabbikuma tukaththiban,

Witness the Barriers-Quantum-narrowing the passing of waves,
Energy
Lessening- visible of its loss yet reflect how endlessly it braves,

Atomic power to develop unleashed- for this wretched human,
Yet rejected,
the call of Lord! Fabi-ayyi ala-i rabbikuma tukaththiban,

An inspiration from heaven, substance -reason a vision Divinely inspired,
to progress-science-
wisdom to Heal the sick! Cure the blind! In return nothing required,

Created to Worship! To soften- tranquil the heart in this life-span,
Yet ignored the voice,
from heaven this intellect! Fabi-ayyi ala-i rabbikuma tukaththiban,

Reflect! Missing Mass- Energy binding- power hidden yet perfection,
Nature-Qudra-Mercy
Declined-‘Miracle phenomenon-iced’- foolish intellect itself burden!

Think! Saved from destruction! From the folly of this sinful wo-man,
safety ensured – Yet rejected
the voice crying! Fabi-ayyi ala-i rabbikuma tukaththiban,

Created from Love! Never to be burdened- or heart craven,
the verses of mercy!
La yukallifu Allahu nafsan illa wusAAaha- today forgotten

Fear instilled to kill the devil in us, Pave way for Divine Eden,
to be enslaved in God’s love,
in hope reminding Fabi-ayyi ala-i rabbikuma tukaththiban,

Particles- Arranged-charged, movement ordered- destiny maintained!
The! wings!
Of Butterfly destined for order and chaos- All Lord pre-ordained

Envision! Galaxies- black holes-Rotating- Zones protecting for life-be began!
Exhibiting the beauty of thy
Lord-yet fail responding to call Fabi-ayyi ala-i rabbikuma tukaththiban,

Mercy of Lord! In denial of his existence – reasoning used to defy,
in arrogance!
So many Gifts- Just How many signs of thy lord will the beings deny!?

Why? Not remember with love, beauty and intellectual charm,
Lords lifting
voice! Tabaraka ismu rabbika thee aljalali waal-ikram.

Voicing! Glory is to Thee! Praise belongs to Thee alone,
Prayers! Crying
falling in prostration! As Lords Majestic Angelic-clone!

Pen that lifts! Ink that flows-reflecting- words to teach us all,
revealing ways to find
Lord- in all humbleness begging forgiveness and before Thou All befall!
