The Sahabah

The Sahabah (companions of the Prophet pbuh)
by Ahmed

Many hardships the companions did endure
Yet on Tauheed they kept their hearts pure

Their gaze fixed on the reward of the hereafter
Unlike us, passing our time in joy and laughter

The services they gave to our deen
The likes of which we have never seen

The pleasure of Allah and His Rasul their aim
They gave up lives of luxuries and fame

We have acknowledged their good status
Then why does this not give us impetus

To strive and work to be like they were
Instead to be like pop stars and celebrities we prefer?

O Muslim! Leave the kuffar ways before you are seized
Instead adopt the way of the Sahabah’s with whom Allah is pleased!
