In The Face of Much Hardship
by Halimah bint David Mac Quarrie
USA
 

In the face of much hardship
Stood firm and patient in Allaah.
Bringer of good news and glad tidings,
You are a mercy unto all people

You fearlessly strived in the cause of Allaah
In the face, of much hardship.
With the best of manners and character,
You stood patient, forgiving others when provoked and abused

You placed the needs of others, before your own;
Took care of orphans and gave much to the poor.
In the face of much hardship,
You feared Allaah and taught us to as well
 
You will pray for mercy on this Muslim Ummah.
On that day, Long and Hot many will stand
Sweating, up to the eyelids for fear of Allaah
In the face of much hardship

Stood firm and patient in Allaah
When all the believers starved, for three long years.
I hope and pray to stand next to you on judgment day;
To be your neighbor in the highest Heaven.
 
Just actions and true words are all we have left of you.
Stood firm and patient in Allaah
Burying, your wife and children one by one.
Your death, is the biggest hardship to this Ummah!

We follow your guidance and praise Allaah.
You are a noble man of true integrity.
Stood firm and patient in Allaah
Belief in the One, always got you through

You used much wisdom and soft speech,
To correct the misguided;
And showed this Ummah how you,
Stood firm and patient in Allaah
