Poem

Isra and Meraj

In the life of Muhammad Isra and Meraj took place.
In it he went to the highest place.

One night, he was sleeping in Hateem,
When he was woken up, by Jibraeel Ameen.

On Burraaq he rode to Jerusalem and to heavens,
He met many prophets on the seven heavens.

Allah provided him a special lift,
To give him a special gift.

Remember Musa’s advice and sincerity,
Now we pray five, and get the reward of fifty

When he told people in the morning, some mocked him,
Although his proof was undeniable, some still denied him.

Hazrat Abu Bakr immediately supported his claim,
And that’s how siddeeq became his name.

Obaid Ahmed, 9 years old
