In this Maulid month, let us express more about Rasulullah not only to our children but also to ourselves so that the love of the Prophet will be deeply enlivened in our heart. At CIC, for the whole month of Rabiul Awwal we will begin the day with a short poem about Rasulullah. Hope our kids slowly understand the message and be able to feel the love. Below is a beautiful poem not the one we do at CIC but this poem is specially dedicated to all our CIC's supporters, may all of us become the pride of Rasulullah.
IF PROPHET MUHAMMAD VISITED YOU
If Prophet Muhammad visited you;
Just for a day or two;
If he came unexpectedly, I wonder what you’d do;
O, I know you’d give your nicest room;
To such and honored;
And all the food you’d serve him,
Would be the very best;
And you would keep assuring him;
You’re glad to have him there;
That serving him in your home;
If joy beyond compare.
But…went you saw him coming;
Would you meet him at the door;
With arms out stretch in welcome;
To your visitor?
Or… would you have to change your clothes
Before you let him in?
Or hide some magazines and put
The Quran where they had been?
Would you still watch the same movies;
On your TV set?
Or would you switch it off
Before he gets upset?
Would the radio;
And hope he hadn’t heard?
And wish you hadn’t uttered that last hasty word?
Would you hide your worldly music?
And instead take Hadith books out?
Could you let him right in;
Or would you to rush about?
And I wonder … if the Prophet spent;
A day or two with you;
Would you go right on doing the things;
You always do?
Would you go right on saying the things;
You always say?
Would life for you continue;
As it does from day to day?
Would your family squabbles
Keep up their usual pace;
And would you find it hard each meal;
To say a table grace?
Would you keep up each and every prayer;
Without putting on a frown?
And would you always jump up early;
For prayer at dawn
Would you sing the songs you always sing;
And read the books you read?
And let him know the things on which;
Your mind and spirit feed?
Would you take the Prophet with you;
Everywhere you plan to go?
Or , would you maybe change your plans;
Just for a day or so?
Would you be glad to have him meet;
You very closest friends?
Or , would you hope they stay away;
Until his visit ends?
Would you be glad to have him stay;
Forever, on and on?
Or would you sigh with great relief;
When he at last was gone?
It might be interesting to know;
The things that you would do;
If Prophet Muhammad, in person came;
To spend some time with you
