‘Indeed, Allah made you victorious at Badr when you were outnumbered. So be mindful of Allah, perhaps you will be grateful.’ Quran 3:123
When the people of truth with a trial met
Parched throats yet showing unwavering zest
Even the sun could not withhold its blaze
Burned down upon yet they sung Lord’s praise
A mammoth adversary thrice their scope
Murderous in pursuit of crushing their hope
The Day of Criterion on seventeenth was set
The Prophet fervently prayed for the looming test
And what a sight beheld the Prophet’s eyes
A swarm of angels bejeweled the skies
A miraculous aid from the heavens sent
On the enemy unleashed a grueling torment
What then ensued is a tale for times
Badr is when reliance with effort combines
On the path of truth one can never lose way
For the Lord Himself sets a beautifulΒ array.

Dr. Javeria Nabahat Amin
