Writing and Righters
Peace be upon the one
Who descended upon
Adamite, jinn and creation
The bulwark leading rights.
Had the Lord left men in vain
to struggle in jungle will yield
Nil, not a grain of wheat
Lo, May Allah save us from hellfire.
The Pen is mightier than Swords is known.
Words and axioms of Mustafa the chosen,
Birth a civilization in the desert — Hejaz was not.
Do you love jazz? Funky? Pop or Reggae
or spoken word, the first magic tune of Jallajalaluhu He said: “Be and it was.”
He said, “Be and it became.”
But this wasn’t the great-est possibility
Save when Our Lord decreed Pen to scribes
“Nun. By the pen and what the scribes write.”
before time immemorial
before Heavens, Earth and then Quintessential Eden
before Adam, not Eve whom Allah revealed the Hidden
before Women could realize His Lab under their laps
before one could verify Hearts from service of lips
There was a Pen
Given to Men, not yet!
This Scribed The Start to Finishing Line
Voluminously illuminations of yīnyáng
Ha Meem, Ya Seen, He is the Noble.
How treacherous to penetrate
What is unseen and unheard
Neither has it entered hearts of men
For those who believe, believe.
In the beginning was your Lord and the Ink as Muhammad ﷺ
Linked too closer as one
I am AhMad without Meem.
No testimony save in mentioning Muhammad
Say: “He is Allah, the One and Unique; AHAD!
Of which Allah, Angels, Holy Books and sages praise limitlessly,
A praise that raises Nations from evil-doom.
O Allah, bless the unlettered Prophet
To statuses that would heal Muslims & inks to wink,
Walking the talk and righting wrongs Sunnatically
with Sayyidul Wûjud in thoughts, acts and realms.
Amîn 🤲
