COMPANIONS(TRUE MEN)

COMPANIONS(TRUE MEN)

What about those brave men who sacrificed their wealth and there life

Those who said Allah(swt) is sufficient for my child and my wife

Who didn't hesitate when the call came to them

Whose life and death in comparison was the same to them

Gave everything and anything for the pleasure of their Lord

Who leap into it with no fear holding that doubled edge sword

Allah(swt) says Do not say they are dead for surely I will feed them

Remember in the Battle of Badr when He sent the  angels to relieve them

They did not fight for land, but for Allah's(swt) word to be superior

Even with a few in Badr they never felt inferior

"Our dead for your dead!" those words are very shallow

They swap this life for Jannah in every single battle

What about Uhud with Khalid Bin Waleed?

Little less chaotic had we took Muhammad's(saw) lead

Yes, but even their mistakes are better then our successes

We sleep all through the night, they didn't even know what rest is

I do not know what we call ourselves, but those are what you call real men

Allah(swt)was pleased with their actions and they were pleased with Him.

Nobility & Salvation 

احذر مودة الناس 

Beware of the love of people

كُنْ سَاكِناً فِي ذا الزمانِ بِسَيئرِهِ *** وعن الورى كُنْ رَاهِباً في دَيرِه

  “Be silent in your era as it moves along

And regarding the those whom came before, be a monk in their monastery

واغسِل يدَيكَ مِن الزمانِ وأهْله *** واحْذِرْ مَوَدَّتهـم تنِل مِن خَيـره

And wash your hands of this time and its people
And be cautious of their love whereby you reach their goodness

إني اطلعتُ فلم أجدْ لِي صاحِباً *** أصحبه في الدهْرِ ولا في غَيْره

I searched but did not find a companion
To befriend through life or than it
فترَكْتُ أسْفَلَهـم لِكَثرَةِ شَـرّه *** وتركت أعْلاهم لِـقلَّة خَيــره

So I abandoned the lowest of them due to the excess of his evil
And I abandoned the loftiest of them due the shortage of his goodness.”
