The Feast of Truth

Al Amin, the Trustworthy, has promised us a feast at al-Kawthar. The Afterlife, hence, is inevitable for the very same reason- writes Mujeeb Jaihoon

An agnostic once
Asked me for proof
For the Hereafter
Not a thing of goof

I replied in words light
Sans the slightest doubt

‘Hereafter is simply possible
Nay, it is even inevitable

For, Meem has promised
A hearty feast
To quench our thirst with his
Intoxicating hands’.

O His merciful Meem!

You are my
only Creed:
The rest of the Laws
I blindly heed

Arsh and Hashr
Janna and Jahannam
These mirages I believe
Merely from your thirst
