Light Upon Light
In Praise of the Prophet A Ghazel by Prof. Haroun Mustapha Leon, M.A., Ph.D., F.S.P. [from the 'Islamic Review vol. 3 1915']
So long as the heart doth pulsate and beat,
So long as the sun bestows light and heat,
So long as the blood thro' our veins doth flow,
So long as the mind in knowledge doth grow,
So long as the tongue retains power of speech,
So long as wise men true wisdom do teach,
The praise of God's prophet, Ahmed the best,
Shall flow from our lips and spring from our breast.
'Twas Rosul-Allah from darkness of night Did lead us to Truth,
did give to us Light,
Did point out the path, which follow'd with zest,
Leadeth to Islam and gives Peace and Rest.
Praise be to Allah! 'Twas He who did send Ahmed Muhammed, our Prophet, our Friend.

Remember that you travel the best road and follow an Exalted Guide, upon him be peace. Be mindful that you have his guidance through the most perfect and expressive revelation. Be fair-minded and balanced in your judgment, for many people do not enjoy these blessings.
Accept how God treats you. Make it the measure by which you treat others, so that you may represent the truth among them and be free from the fear of loneliness in either world.
Judge your worth in the Creator's sight by how much space you allocated to Him in your heart, and your worth in the eyes of people by the worth of how you treat them. Do not be neglectful of the Truth even for a moment. And yet, "be a man or woman among other men or women."
Take note of and be attentive to any behavior that causes you to love others. Then remind yourself that behaving in the same way will cause them to love you. Always behave decently, and be alert.
'Light upon Light,
Allah guides to His Light whom He pleases' 2
Alhamdulillah, I thank Allah For including me in the community
That is guided by the Light Sent with Prophet Muhammad
As a mercy to mankind
Our Intercessor on the Day of Judgement
Our beloved Imam-e-Zaman Allahuma salle Allah
Muhammadin wa Aley Muhammad"
