Walking down the streets of Medina earnestly
unperturbed by the sweltering, scorching summer heat
traders lining up greeting and grinning broadly
some even called us up in persuasion
while others simply gestured with anticipation
few stopped by, keen to hear and see further
while mostly kept walking on without hesitation
for their intention was one and only
to witness the great An-Nabawi and all that lie within.
Stepping on its marble-adorned doorstep for the first time
the majestic structure and its aura loomed graciously
making every soul gasped in awe and amazement
some even got teary-eyed in happiness and thankfulness
for where the minarets met the skyline
an amazing 'nur' seemed to transpire incredibly
welcoming the Lord's guests that came incessantly
Men and women came in droves from all directions
to submit before our Lord Almighty in prostration
reciting the Holy Quran while awaiting the call of 'adzan'
to perform 'solah' in mass congregation
for every solah performed in An-Nabawi
is granted a thousand times more than
anywhere else within the earth vicinity
with the exception of Al-Haram and all its entirety.
