POEM
40 days after the tragedy,
We’ve already become so trendy,
How fast we forget,
What Husayn (a.s) did for humanity.
C for the Courage, which the Bani Hashim showed
H for humanity for what they all fought
E is for our eyes that tear this time of the year
H is for Husayn (a.s) who we should try to come near
L is for the love that we have for this world
U is for understanding it’s the Akhera that counts
M is for the Muslims all over the world, who we
pray, unite and follow what the Ahlul Bayt taught.
A poem for Bibi Sakina.
Sakina, Sakina, I cry for you.
whenever we think about you,
whenever we are blessed to be near you,
we feel sorry for you,
as you were of the age of playing,
but the army of Yazid did not leave you,
you went under all the hardships for the love
of Islam
O sakina! O sakina! the birds also went home
dear Bibi Sakina you were left in the small Grave,
Today we Salute you and
thousands of people come to you.

POEM
Each year we relive the tragedy of
Kerbala
With tears in our eyes, beating our
chest Ya Hussaina!
Is this only what our beloved Imam
wanted from us?
Have we answered to his call;
Halmin Naasirin Yansurnaa?

POEM
Timely prayers, Love for each other,
living with unity,
Kindness in our attitude, helping the
needy.
These values would elevate us to
answer his call
Let us follow their footsteps, this
should be our goal.

BIBI ZAYNAB (AS) – POEM.
She was so strong, the sister of Husayn,
Zainab binte Ali, shareekatul Husayn.
She suffered so much, her hijab was
snatched,
She remained strong, when the children
were scratched.
She was no less than a leader to us
The hijab she taught us, follow it we must.
She gave her sons, for the sake of Islam,
Do we follow her? We lack Iman.

BIBI ZAYNAB (AS) – POEM.
We mourn, we cry, we shed our tears,
Do we know how the children in Karbala
feared?
We beat our chests, we beat our heads,
Then 2 months later, we’re back to our trends.
Don’t we know every day is Ashura?
Don’t we understand, every land is Karbala?
Oh Mulims of the world, lets wake up!
Oh Muslims of the world, you must stand up!
~Sakina.N.A.Hassanali
BIBI SAKINA (A.S)
Sakina was her name,
For whom Hijab was no game.
A four year old who sacrificed her
thirst,
For whom, her fathers love remained
the first,
Snatched was her Hijab,
Pulled were her earrings and
slapped was her face,
Was tortured by Yazid without any
mercy or grace.

BIBI SAKINA (A.S)
On the hot sands of Karbalaa, Kufa and
Shaam, she was tied in shackles and
chains, The child who was hurt as
pebbles and stones poured as rain.
Lost everything for the very cause of
Islam,
Is our faith stronger as strong as her
Imaan?
Suffered the scorching heat of the sun
and nights of cold,
Died in the prisons of Shaam, did this four
year old.

POEM
If Hussain intended to wage a war,
then tell me why,
he brought along his little children?
If water was abundant,
then tell me why,
the infant died of thirst?
Cont...
If the oppressors were followers
of Muhammad,
then tell me why,
was Sakina so bitterly whipped?
If the weak patients are treated
with utmost care,
then tell me why,
Sajjad's back was lowered?
Cont...
If Akbar resembled the Prophet,
then tell me why,
how could they pierce his chest with
spears?
If veil is the sacred covering for
women,
then tell me why,
was Zainab shielding herself with her
