THE PROPHET’S MASJID

September 08, 2008

With lightness of foot the gentle camel came

fearing to jolt the Prophet holding its rein.

With grace it had moved over the hot dessert sand

obeying the touch of its kind master's hand.

 

A cloud had shadowed them all along the way

and shielded them from the fierce sun's rays.

As they reached Medina children raced to his side

and the Prophet dismounted, patting his ride.

 

"Where shall we build the Masjid," in haste they enquired

as the Prophet released his camel that was happy yet tired.

"Be patient," he said "In a moment you will see

where the camel takes its rest that's the place it will be."

 

As the camel sat down in a very blessed place

happiness spread over everyone's face

they knew where they must build at last

and brought wood and palms very fast.

 

A fine, yet humble Masjid stood upon the site

and the Prophet worshiped there day and night.

He thanked Allah for the safety of his ride,

for the camel that had carried him and those by his side.
