I Love you, O Prophet Muhammad (SAW)!

Asalama’alayka O Prophet Muhammad, Peace be upon you,
I think about you everyday.

I wish I lived when you lived.
That I could have been
A part of your blessed household.
I wish I were there to sacrifice
And to spread the Message of Islam with you.

To see your beautiful smile,
To hear your blessed voice reciting the Qur`an,
To smell your scent on a hot summer day,
To feel you’re elegant fingers pass over my head,
Would be a dream come true.

I wonder if I lived in your time would I be
Truthful like Abu Bakr (RA) or Just like Umar (RA)?
Gentle like Uthman (RA) or a Warrior like Ali (RA)?
I don’t know what I would be,
But I would want to be close to you.

O Messenger of Allah, Peace be upon you,
If I were there I would never leave you.

I would stay by your side
Through the boycotts and victories.
I would give up everything,
Go where you go,
And do as you command.

I would follow you from Makkah to Medina.
At Badr I would fight by your side,
At Uhud I would risk it all to protect you,
And even help to dig the great Trench
To keep the enemies of Islam away.

I wish I could hug you,
I wish I could stay with you,
I wish I could pray behind you,
I wish I could fast with you,
I wish I could hear you make du’a for me.

I love you, O Rasulallah, Peace be upon you.
I wish I could always be with you.

Even if I cant see you in this world,
I know you are still here and always with me.
We understand the Qur’an, because of you.
You are my true teacher
And taught me how to live as a Muslim.

To follow your path is Paradise
And the only way to be with you forever.
You loved us before we were even born,
And we love you before we have seen you.
I pray that Allah will unite us in Jannah.

It will make all our struggles
And tears worth it
To feel your arms around us
And hear you whisper,
“Welcome Home.”

O Allah! Help us to follow the right path,
And make us all with the Prophet (SAW) in Jannah.

Ameen!
