Belief in Angels, Books, Prophets, and Decree

 


Belief in Angels

59Majestic beings fashioned of light divine,

   Unseen, they serve their Lord in perfect line.

60No speech nor act precedes His sovereign call,

   They bow, in awe, before the Lord of all.

61From mighty thrones to guarding Heaven’s gate,

   Recording deeds or sealing every fate,

62Jibril descends with truths from skies above,

   Mika’il tends the earth with boundless love.

63Israfil waits to sound the fateful horn,

   While Malik guards the realm where souls are torn.

64Angels, ethereal servants pure and bright,

   Reflect the Maker’s glory, strength, and might.

 

Belief in Divine Books

65The words divine, revealed in written grace,

   To guide mankind through every time and place.

66The Torah’s light, the Gospel’s holy creed,

   The Psalms resound, the Qur’an now leads.

67Its verses heal, its wisdom clears the way,

   The seal of books, forever here to stay.

68“Mankind was one,” then truth would reappear,

   Through Prophets sent to make His justice clear.

69So, follow now the blessed path it shows,

   The mercy of the Lord in each verse flows.

 

Belief in Prophets

70Messengers sent to light the narrow way,

   Their call to truth no power could dismay.

71“Worship Allah, avoid the false,” they plead,

   Their mission clear, their warnings intercede.

72Nuh, Hud, and Salih led the chosen few,

   Ibrahim’s faith the purest ever true.

73Muhammad, last, the finest seal of all,

   Through him the light of truth on hearts does fall.

74Reject not these; the call to faith is plain,

   Eternal joy for those who heed remains.

 

Belief in the Last Day

75A day of trials, grave and vast, will rise,

   When deeds are weighed beneath the judging skies.

76The balance set, the bridge stretched far and thin,

   The righteous pass while sinners fall within.

77Paradise calls with rivers pure and sweet,

   While Hell’s consuming fires the wretched greet.

78The records show the path each soul has trod,

   And faithful hearts behold the face of God.

79A day of justice, mercy’s final stand,

   Where all must face the fate, His wisdom planned.

 

Belief in Divine Decree

80His knowledge vast, eternal and supreme,

   Beyond the bounds of any mortal dream.

81All written clear within the sacred scroll,

   Each thought, each deed, each destiny, each goal.

82What He decrees shall be, none can oppose,

   His will commands the sun to set, to rose.

83Creation bows; He fashioned all that is,

   No hand but His can grant or take or give.

84Such faith completes the creed, the heart’s delight,

   Submission to His plan in wrong or right.

85Each verse, a guide, a mirror to the soul,

   To shape the self and make the spirit whole.

86This path of faith, a lantern through the strife,

   Illuminates the way to eternal life.
