Where is her grave?

The Muslims have
been deeply pained.
Their
beloved prophet has passed away.
And
especially for his kith and kin,
it is
one of their lives' saddest day.
A lady who happens
to be his daughter,
above
all, is the most afflicted one.
She
was the nearest to her father.
Alas!
Her troubles have just begun.
What in the
Prophet's eyes was her status,
unfortunately the people shall forget.
She
should be respected by all of us.
But a
harsh treatment, she'll be met.
Everyone had heard
her father say,
"My
daughter is a part of me".
For
her safety he would often pray;
Not
wanting her to bear any agony.
But his words fell
on deaf ears
as
his followers were lead astray.
And
were realized those worst fears,
because his tidings were disobeyed.
Each forthcoming
day brings her sorrow
and
only a few more months she'll live.
Each
night she worries about her woes.
Her
tormentors, she may not forgive.
In her last days,
she is seen weeping.
Awake
all night, she seldom sleeps.
Of
her troubles, she keeps thinking.
The
wounds in her heart are so deep.
The thoughts of her
father alone
cause
tears from her eyes to flow
and
what will happen to her children?
What
fate do they have in stow?
"Be kind to them
and take care",
she
wills about her poor children,
because she'll be no longer near
and
they'll soon be orphans.
As she spends the
time crying,
her
neighbors come and complain.
But
look! She is already dying.
Their
complaint will be in vain.
And that dark
moment finally comes,
for
her heavenly abode, she departs.
Holding back their tears, her children,
see
baba leaving with a heavy heart.
Hands trembling and
with great anguish,
he
takes away her coffin during the night.
And
he makes sure to fulfill her last wish.
She
will rest, out of everyones' sight.
Has gone from this
world forever,
the
mother of children so brave!
But
why was she buried in a manner
that
no one knows, where is her grave? |
