The Last Option Poem by Akhtar Jawad

The Last Option

Rating: 5.0


It's Delhi and the year is 1857.
fighters of freedom took shelter in an inn,
the British army sieges the inn
and leaves no way for the fighters to escape.
The fighters know even if they unconditionally surrender,
they are to be treated like mutineers,
and they will be hanged on the trees by neck till death.
The only option open for them is to fight till death.
They come out of the inn and fight till death.
The battle is over.
Now count the casualties,
casualties of the British army are much more
than that of the fighters of freedom.

Today, the whole word is attempting to siege the Muslims,
they think Muslims believe that Islam is the final religion
sooner or later it will spread all over the world
and Muslims will rule the earth till the dooms day.
Plans of Hindus are restricted to the South Asia.
Plans of Jews are restricted to the Arabic Peninsula.
Plans of Buddhists are restricted to the Far East.
Christians are already ruling the world,
their plans are restricted to defense only.
My Dear World!
Absolute majority of Muslims
believes in peace and coexistence,
but they also believe during the flight of life
earth is merely a transit airport
and their destination is on the skies.
Don't siege them,
otherwise they will fight till death
and the total casualties of non-Muslims
will be much more than that of Muslims.
Even if you siege them leave a door open.
That's what British Army learnt
but after a considerable loss.

A very perceptive write. History can guide us what we may decide for the present and future. A great poem cleverly written.
