THE BELIEF of AHL AS-SUNNA
The belief of Ahl as-sunna is what you need first,
Of the seventy-three, choose this way, the rest'll lead to Hell.
Muslims are all sunni: and their leader is Nu'man.
Paradise is promised to their followers in iman.
First make thine belief firm; then hold fast to Shari'at!
Obey Islam's five commandments; do avoid its harams!
If you commit a sin, make tawba, forthwith!
Whoever violates Shari'at will one day regret it.
Don't ever believe the atheist, else you 'll end up in misery!
Mind sweet words, or they 'll entice you into catastrophe!
Hypocrites are on the increase; angels in guise, snakes in essence.
To entrap you, they'll be your friends, so true in appearance.
Anyone may claim he is right, and others wrong,
Islam is he criterion whereby to judge who is right!
Person who disobeys Islam is an aberrant one;
He who knows history well, will confirm this word.
Why will a person feeling unwell run to see a doctor?
For no one wants to die, life is more sweet than anything else.
Who on earth could claim he wouldn't like to live forever?
Death does not mean nonexistence: believe in life in the grave!
Paradise is everlasting, and so is Hell; Qur'an states so,
Beware of everlasting affliction, were it only a suspicion,
Yet some people deny this; a bat will shun light, and a crow
Enjoys rubbish heaps. It is the philomel that will solicit the rose.
No doubt, a lascivious profligate could not like Islam,
These two would never come together; good and bad are opposites!
Muslims are observant of the right, and kind to people;
Infidels, like serpents, enjoy hurting others.
Alas, Ya Rabbi, alas! Such a difficult time we live in:
Religious knowledge's sunken into oblivion, very few perform namaz.
Masons insidiously gnaw at Islam from all directions;
Communists inflict torment; death, dungeon on Muslims.
Today's eccentricities the Messenger foretold;
Said: "My follower shall be so lonesome one day;
Every home shall be loud with music, adhan heard no more;
No 'alim anywhere, the ignorant shall come to the fore!
Believers shall be miserable, disbelievers a Solomon each,
Every man a servant of his wife, woman commanding in the home;
Tall buildings shall be built, like a dog's teeth:
Travelling shall be so fast, distance no longer a matter.
The intellect shall find many things, yet mankind sound asleep.
Birghiwi [80]* wrote in his book, as many hadiths foretold:
Signs of the world's end shall appear, one after another;
The most famous of these signs; many a person shall be drunk.
People quite unaware of Islam shall be called 'Ulama.
The cruel shall be honored, to ward off this harm.
Shamelessness on the increase, cuckolds wondering,
The basest of mankind in Moscow, issuing orders.
Everyone an 'alim to himself, Muslim shall be called 'rough."
Few shall tell the truth, liars talking all the time.
A person shall be praised much, though having no eeman in his heart:
Men, like women, shall wear silk clothes shamelessly.
Wealth, adultery shall be arts, boys used for girls:
Women shall be tightly dressed, legs, bosoms in the open.
Fitna shall prevail all over, manslaughter for nothing.
Bid'at shall be widespread, no one to obey the sunnats.
People lacking moral sense, like Dajjal, shall invent thousands of lies,
Should a person tell the truth, they shall assail from all directions.
Men shall be unaware of Islam, and women shall be eccentric:
Emr-i-ma'ruf shall be forgotten, charlatans advertising sins.
Islam shall be criticized, harams shall be committed everywhere,
Being a Muslim shall be in words only, melodies enjoyed in the name of Qur'an.
The Believer shall be called reactionary, the renegade shall be backed:
All these shall certainly happen before the crack of doom.
Dajjal, the grand prognostication, shall appear in Khorasan;
Then Isa shall descend from heaven, to a mosque in Damascus.
A hadith says, "Of my daughter Fatima's descendants, a youth
Named Mehdi shall appear, and his father shall be named Abdullah.
He shall strengthen Islam; iman shall spread all over the world,
Then this hero and Isa 'alaihis-salam' shall cooperate
And kill Dajjal, filling the whole world with justice and safety,
Later, Ye'juj and Me'juj[81]* shall appear from behind the wall.
