The LION of Allaah

Submitted by : muslim89 on Muslim

He was the uncle of Muhammed (s.a.w)
Born just two years apart from our noble Prophet (s.a.w)
His destiny to accept Islam was already decided and set

Once Muhammad (s.a.w) was seated at the hills of Safa
Abu-Jahl, a cruel man attacked him in a hostile manner
He hated Muhammad (s.a.w), abused him & his loyal companions
You see, Abu-Jahl wasn’t destined to join the true champions

After hunting the prophet’s brave uncle, heard of the attack
He was angry, deeply offended so gave Abu-Jahl a big, blow back!
Abu-Jahl and his friends dare not rise
They held their positions, silent, coward guys!
From there on, the brave uncle announced he a 'Muslim'
On hearing this, Muhammad (s.a.w) was pleased with him!

A sportsman, a hunter, a brave, fearless warrior
He was appointed as one of Islam’s highest senior
The people of Makkah feared this man
He was strong, smart and knew the game plan
He took much interest in the affairs of the city
And would insist his army to fight the enemy

When Wahshi was a non-muslim, he agreed to do an evil crime
On behalf of a woman, thirsty for revenge at the time

A soldier, a brother, a loyal uncle
He fought his last in one of the heaviest battle (U'hud)
Thus for his fearlessness & bravery, he was given a special title

Sadly, by Wahshi he was assassinated
Never the case before were matyr bodies so mutilated
He fell to his knees after a spear pieced his abdomen
He was fortunate to have lived as Muhammad’s (s.a.w) companion
He died fighting for truth, justice and freedom
May he rest in peace and enjoy the blissful kingdom of heaven

His name was HAMZA
A.K.A

Now which of you men/brothers would love to be a soldier like Hamza? :)


Note:
Do take time to read around some of these best companions….most of them gave up their wealth, homes, families to fight for truth and justice, they did everything they can to protect prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) and for fought for this ummah. They loved him (s.a.w) dearly and like them so should we.
