I Wonder...

If Prophet Muhammad  visited you Just for a day or two,
If He  came unexpectedly, I wonder what you'd do.
Oh, I know you'd give your nicest room, To such an honored guest,
And all the food you'd serve Him , Would be the very best,
And you would keep assuring Him , You're glad to have Him  there,
That serving Him  in you home, Is joy beyond compare.


But.....when you saw Him  coming, Would you meet Him  at the door, With arms
outstreched in welcome, To your visitor?
Or....would you have to change your clothes Before you let Him  in?
Or hide some magazines and put, The Quran where they had been?
Would you still watch X-rated moives, On your T.V. set?
Or would you switch it off, before He gets upset?
Would you turn off the radio, And hope He  hadn't heard?
And wish you hadn't uttered the last loud hasty word?
Would you hide your worldy music, And instead take Hadith books out?
Could you let Him  walk right in, Or would you rush about?
And, I wonder.....if the Prophet  spent, A day or two with you,
Would you go right on doing the things, You always do?
Would you go right on saying the things You always say?
Would life for you continue, As it does from day to day?
Would your family conversating, Keep up its usual pace,
And Would you find it hard each meal, To say a table grace?
Would you keep up each and every prayer? Without putting on a frown?
And would you always jump up early, For prayer at dawn?
Would you sing the songs you always sing, And read the books you read?
And let Him  know the things on which, Your mind and spirit feed?
Would you take Prophet  with you, Everywhere you plan to go?
Or, would you maybe change your plans, Just for a day or so?
Would you be glad to have Him  meet, Your very closest friends?
Or, would you hope they stay away, Until His  visit ends?
Would you be glad to have Him  stay, Forever on and on?
Or would you sigh with great relief, When He  at last was gone?
It might be interesting to know, The things that you would do.
If Prophet Muhammad , in person, came, to spend some time with you.
