No Shame and Him you blame?

Blaming the Almighty for His punishments is nonsensical as He infinitely forgives their failures, asserts Mujeeb Jaihoon.

The other day my treasured friend
I eagerly approached
To relate a news:
My ears had just fetched

My heart was heavy
With a sad news
Nothing around could
Lead me to amuse

I said,

“Did you know about the bloody quake-
And the thousands of lives at stake?

Homes are down
Bridges are broken
The entire earth below
Them are shaken

What a fate has
Upon them fallen!
With great misery
Is their land swollen”

While I impatiently vent
All my shock
My friend in silence
Cast a look

And as I concluded
My pitiful talk
Few sweet words
My friend unlocked

“How Merciful is my Him
Patient ever with our Zulm

He indefinitely ignores
Crimes of humans
Excuse upon excuse:
To grant forgiveness

But when all limits are crossed
His judgment comes to be passed

Yet, how could you accuse His Mercy-
Knowing well how much Him I fancy?

Don’t you have any sense or shame-
To doubt His Mercy and put on Him blame?

During the day, you forget to praise
But when night falls, Him you criticize”

Hearing these words I got more sad
Thinking about Him I felt further bad

I thanked Him for what I woefully learned-
From the mouth of the Him-Loving Friend
