| Assalamu'alaikum :-) Here is a poem that was written by a Malaysian brother, a Muslim activist. He was arrested several times by the government, and lately, his wife, Ummu Urwah was detained by the ISA (Internal Security Act). In this act, the government has the "right" to arrest and prison anyone without a trial. Some of you might be familiar with the going-ons in Malaysia with the Anwar Ibrahim saga. This is just some of the struggles that our Malaysian brothers/ sisters are going through. Abu and Ummu Urwah are parents of 6 or 7 children (I'm not sure) and both of them are very active doing da'wah and striving for the cause. This is a poem that he wrote for her. I apologise for the bad translation. It took me several days, my Malay's a bit rusty. Afwan. [color=blue] SALUTE BUATMU, UMMU 'URWAH Your lofty aspirations, I honor Your courage I see, is a gift from Allah You stand firm on your rights You believe deeply of the truth and justice You believe deeply His promises You surrender my children to Him Vanished – the tremble in your heart Your struggle solidly fixed, persevering. How pure your love is to me, to the children of ours, to the children of the nation You have left behind the steps of struggle for the warriors (to tread) In the pure silence of my sujud (sajdah), lies my du’a for you This is the answer I give you my salute for you, Ummu Urwah ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ketinggian azammu kusanjungi Keberanianmu kulihat anugerah dari Allah Kau tetap teguh di atas hakmu Kau yakin kepada kebenaran dan keadilan Kau yakin pada janji-Nya Kau serah anak-anaku kepada-Nya Hilang gentar hatimu Makin teguh tekad perjuanganmu Tulusnya cintamu padaku, pada anak-anak kita, pada anak-anak nusa Kau telah tinggalkan jejak-jejak juang, buat bekalan srikandi Dalam hening-hening sujudku munajat buatmu Inilah hasilnya Aku salute buatmu, Ummu 'Urwah [/color] |
