Ashaab e Muhammad haq ke wali, Abu-Bakar Umar Usmaan-o-Ali Yaraan e Nabi mein sab se jali, Abu Bakar Umar Usmaan-o-Ali They are the closest companions Most high in rank is their station Among the gems they were chosen The first to build our foundation. These four our Prophet did entrust Through whom the truth would reach to us The pillars of his ways and his love The beacons of his light for all of us. The stars who guide us through the night Their path: it leads to paradise They are the roots, we are the leaves We are raindrops, they are the seas. And when the Prophet left this world No harder time for all it felt Then strength was found when they stood tall They lifted and firmly held his torch. Indebted to them how we are They went great lengths for this Ummah Their vision was on times later They sacrificed so much for us. Milad Raza Qadri
