Remember Sulaiman Poem by Al Nabigha Al Dhubyani

Remember Sulaiman

Rating: 5.0


'Remember Sulaiman when God said to him;
Stand up on the earth and mark out a portion for yourself.'
'I come to you in rugged clothes,
Lest you should entertain evil notions about me.'
'I have sworn and have left no room for doubt in your heart;
And for a man there is no way beyond Allah.'
'Whatever has been told to you about me is false;
If I am dishonest the man who has been backbiting
Against me is fraudulent and false.'
'If you do not reform your brother
You will have to forego him.'
'Crooked thorns tied in strings,
When such strings are in your hand
These attract me to you.'
'Like night, you will get hold of me,
If I ever think that leaving you I can go anywhere.'
'Towards Ibn Muhariq I led my dromedary
When the world was asleep.'
'I saw that the trust had not been betrayed,
Likewise Nuh did not betray his trust.'
