Don’t talk to me about Muhammad.

[Blessed]

:mad:

 

 

 

It would be such a pleasure to have you come along with me,

I accept your gracious offer of kindness and company.

But as we walk along young man and as you help me with my load,

I’ve only one request as we travel down this road,

 

 

Because of him there is no peace and I have trouble in my mind,

so don’t talk to me about Muhammad

and as we walk along together we will get along just fine,

and as we walk along together we will get along.

 

That man upsets me so, and so much more than you could know,

I hear of his name and reputation everywhere I go.

Though his family and his clan once knew him as an honest man,

he’s dividing everyone with his claim that “God is One”

 

So don’t talk to me about Muhammad.

Because of him there is no peace and I have trouble in my mind,

so don’t talk to me about Muhammad

and as we walk along together we will get along just fine,

and as we walk along together we will get along.

 

He’s misled all the weak ones and the poor ones and the slaves,

They think they’ve all found wealth and freedom following his ways.

He’s corrupted all the youth with his twisted brand of truth

convinced them they all are strong, given them somewhere to belong.

 

So don’t talk to me about Muhammad.

Because of him there is no peace and I have trouble in my mind,

so don’t talk to me about Muhammad

and as we walk along together we will get along just fine,

and as we walk along together we will get along.

 

Thank you now young man, you’ve really been so kind

Your generosity and smile are very rare to find.

Let me give you some advice, since you’ve been so very nice,

From Muhammad stay away, don’t heed his words or emulate his way.

 

And don’t talk about Muhammad,

or you will never have true peace and trouble is all you will find.

So don’t talk about Muhammad

and as you travel down life’s road you will get along just fine.

 

Now before we part and go, if it’s alright just the same,

may I ask, my dear young man, who you are? What is your name?

 

Forgive me - what was that? Your words weren’t very clear,

my ears are getting old - sometimes its difficult to hear.

It is truly rather funny, though I’m sure I must be wrong,

but I thought I heard you said that your name is Muhammad......

 

Muhammad?

 

Ash haduallah ilaha il Allah wa Ash hadu ana Muhammad ur-Rasulullah.

 

Oh talk to me Muhammad!

Upon you I pray for peace for you have eased my troubled mind!

Oh talk to me Muhammad

and as we walk along together we will get along just fine,

and as I travel down life’s road I will get along just fine.

At first..I got why on earth you'd post this..Then i recalled the hadith.

 

Nice one sis.

[hodman]

yeah smart!

[FatB]

i dont get it?

[Blessed]

^^Read to the end, no!

 

This is about a true story of an old kafir lady who despised the Prophet (saw) merely on the basis of what was said about him.

 

One day, she was returning from the market with heavy bags and the prophet Muhammed (saw)carried her heavy bags all the way to her house.

 

On this journey the old lady was saying 'don’t talk to me about Muhammed' because at that time she thought he was bad. The Prophet (saw) didn’t get angry and remained calm and polite throughout.

 

At the end she realised that this kind helpful man was in actual fact the object of her complaints and so she became a Muslim.

 

This story [and song] is very significant to our times. There is a lot of misinformation spread about Islam and our Messenger (saw) and there is a great lesson to be learnt from the conduct and character of our Messenger (saw). You really do catch more flies with honey, so to speak.

 

Cambarro,

That was my initial reaction too but it's my favourit nasheed.
