-I Once Had a Dream … Shahadat-
I once had a dream
That myself and few other Muslims
Were on a train
When suddenly
A tribe of Kafirs came
Swords in their hands
Shielded with heavy armour
That was protecting and covering their face and body
Screaming on the top of their voice:
“Kill Kill
Kill Them all …
Don’t Leave any of Them Alive!”
The Muslim Brothers leapt forward
In defence of the children and Muslim Sisters
They leapt forward
In defence of Islam
Their heart pounding
-With Excitement of Course-
Ecstatic that they were
In defence of a very good cause
Their fists clenched tightly
Beautiful proud smiles on
Their beardy glowing faces
Fear of man – Could not be seen
The Takbira began:
“ALLAHU AKBAR – WALLAHU AKBAR – WALILLAHIL HAMDH”
Whilst the Muslimah’s
Screamed like mad
Clenching their hands around my arms
Dragging me back
Away from the Front-Line
I screamed in anger
And tried to release myself from their claws
My mother screaming at me
To find them all an escape route off the train
I said:
“Mama I Have No Intention
No Intention Whatsoever of Escaping
Try and Understand
Try and Understand Please
Now For the Sake of Allah (Jallalahu) Let Me Go Sisters!”
My words being drowned
By all the screaming and wailing that was surrounding me
I could hear the echoes
The echoes of the Takbirs
And the echoes of swords clashing
I screamed for my father
Asking him to help me
-Alhumdulillahi Rabil’alameen-
He heard my call
And came running towards me
His face drenched in blood
Dripping from him
Yet he looked as healthy as ever
Not an ounce of pain could be seen
He said:
“Fear Allah (AzaWajal) ‘O Sisters
The number of brothers
Is indeed very few
If you sisters want to
Then step forward
Step forward and help us deal with the Kufaar
If not, then remain back
My daughter is indeed amongst those
Amongst those who wishes to die as a Shaheed
So let her go
-Insha’Allahu Ta’aala- Let her fulfil her dream!”
I looked at the women
Who were at this point all slowly
But gradually drifting further and further away from me
I held my father by the arm and said
“Masha’Allahu Ta’aala,
You Look so Kool
With all That Blood Over You
You all Look so Beautiful
You’re all Glowing With Noor
Lead the Way Dad
Lets Go Together and Insha’Allahu Ta’aala Become Shaheed.”
On the floor I saw a sword
Covered in blood
So I picked it up
And began to observe its sharp bloody blade
My dad said:
“Insha’Allahu Ta’aala Your Time Has Come
Go Forward and Smite The Kufaars Necks!”
I shouted out aloud
“ALLAH HU AKBAR”
And ran forward
A Kaafir suddenly came in my way
He was standing right in front of me
I couldn’t see his face
He was indeed way bigger
And taller than me
I froze and starred …
Around me I could hear heads being chopped off
I could hear the brothers’ excitement as they all continuously made Takbirs
My dad came forward
With his sword
And said:
“ALLAH HU AKBAR”
But before he got the chance to swing his sword
-It had been decreed indeed-
The Kafir had got to dad first
I didn’t move
Tears strolled down my face
I was not saddened that the Kafir had Martyred my dad
I was sad because for some reason I wasn’t taking a stand
I had a sword in my hand
But I wasn’t using it the way I should’ve been
The Kafir laughed and said:
“You’ve Been Standing Alive Way to Long Little Child!”
I began making sincere Du’a
That Allah (AzaWajal) makes me firm
Gives me strength to at least chop off one head
To at least swing my sword once
At the annoying Kafir
That was standing in front of me
-Subhan’Allahi wa Bi’hamdihi-
I gripped the sword tight
With a Takbir and took one swing
The Kafir didn’t see it coming
He was too busy laughing
-ALLAH HU AKBAR-
My Du’aa had been accepted
I had killed one Kaafir
My Eemaan higher than ever
Veins pumping with excitement
I ran towards another Kafir
I heard a brother scream:
“May Allah (SWT) Bless You
And Accept You as Shaheed
My Dear Sister.”
I stopped
And came face to face with another hypocrite
But before my sword touched his flesh
His sword chopped my neck …
… As I heard my echo:
(((-ALLAH HU AKBAR-)))
Leaving me …
Honestly it was indeed only a pinch I had felt …
And then I woke up
Smiling more than ever.
It comes to show that one must not only be
Physically ready to face such infidels –FiSabilillah-
But one HAS TO BE Mentally ready at all times
Today many of us say:
“I Want to Go to the Battlefield!”
There is a lot to see
But many of us are no where close
In fulfilling our Martyrdom dreams
We speak a lot indeed –
But is our intention really clean
Indeed the blessed will only be given this blessed opportunity
The road that we Muslims need to go down
In order to Roam Paradise in the Hearts of Green Birds
Is indeed very bumpy
Hold firmly to the reins of your horse
My dear brothers and sisters in Islam
And don’t let go …
Then just wait and see
Brothers will unite with the Brothers
And Sisters will unite with the Sisters
In Jannatul Firdaus –Insha’Allahu Ta’aala-
