(I want to narrate a story for you today;
Something that makes your heart sway.
The story of a holy man who was named Mohammad;
Who is also known by people of centuries as Ahmad.
In first years of childhood, he became an orphan.
But worldly difficulties brought him up as a man.
Dear ones left him on this land one after one;
In his little heart, dances of sorrow had begun.
He spent his youthful days being a shepherd.
While grazing sheep, divine whispers were heard.
He observed plains and mountains thinking of their creator;
Like turning over the leaves of a book seeking its author.
He found the whole world the opened book of God.
His wisdom & insight bloomed, like a flowering bud.
In the land of superstition, he worshiped God, the One.
As the reward of his monotheism, he was gifted Quran;
-Quran is clearly holy verses to guide humanity…
A shout of truth to establish peace and equality.-
Once Mohammad went to Cave Al-Hara to praise Him,
The air smelled heavenly fragrance or maybe it seemed.
He felt a greatness within, too splendid to endure.
From eyes’ spring, tears gushed obviously pure.
“Read!” he heard this divine whisper that night.
The whole cave was filled by a halo of light.
“Oh I can not” with fear Mohammad replied him.
His voice was like the one waking up a velvet dream.
Celestial revelation repeated “Read by my name!
Relying on my power, then things won’t be the same.
Depend on me; the Lord of Heavens and the Earth
Who gives His servants birth, death and rebirth.
Read by the name of your most generous Providence.
Let your ambitious spirit soar highly; give it a deliverance.
Read by the name of your Almighty Lord creating you.
From each creation, I brought a pair into existence, too.
This land has never been empty of my holy messengers.
Propagandists of virtue, peace and justice they were.
You’re the last of prophets. I chose you, Mohammad.
If you face mocking ignorant people, don’t feel sad.
Before you, there were many prophets as well.
Their people denied them becoming ready to sell
Their divine spirits in lieu of mundane worthless stuff.
How cheaply they sold themselves! They forgot eternal life.”
Mohammad started reading by his Lord’s name.
As he was told before, things weren’t the same.
So fluently he read each verse of Quran; holy Book.
Such a miracle his mission was, even in a single look.
He returned to his people with his miracle; Quran.
To guide humanity to Straight Path: to God, the One.
My Muslim siblings! Come in companion with me.
Let’s utter together: Peace be upon him and his family.
Since he’s the one who fulfilled monotheism’s dreams;
Like a shining sun sending everyone his golden beams.
