Defining moments and Divine decree
Man created in best of moulds
Satan rebelled, pride took hold
Defining moment in history of man
When he fell in Satan’s plan
Eating the fruit – a critical point
Put us all out of joint
Cain killed Abel jealousy took hold
Fitra* of man exposed, unfolds
Noah’s ark – a watershed
After 900 years of all that he said
Abraham took on the establishment
As he challenged the idols and management
Defining moment of truth and all that’s fake
The challenge he threw for them to take
Joseph thrown into the well
From there starts a new spell
Raced to the door to safeguard honour
Landed in jail, all the horror
God’s gift of dream interpretation
Gets him to govt. representation
Many defining moments in Musa’s life
Put in the basket, picked up by the Pharaoh’s wife
One punch and the man is dead
A price put on his head
Arrived at a watering post
Allah’s help he needed most
Instead he helps damsels in distress
Then sits in dua – against a tree rests.
Defining moment in divine decree
When in the distance the fire he sees
He’s given the mantle to uphold the deen**
To battle the worst tyrant man has seen
Ultimate drama, parting of the sea
The oppressors end for all to see
Defining moments in divine decree
The bonded nation set free
The wandering in the wilderness
Thanks to disobedience and willfulness
The dua for a dedicated son
Springboards far on to a grandson
Not only a daughter super special
Jesus comes with impeccable credentials
Be and it is by divine decree
Paving the way for the final Nabi***
Defining moment in the solitude of the cave
To the best of creation the Creator gave
23 years – down pouring of guidance
Last link – Qu’ranic brilliance
Till the end of time,
When the trumpet chimes
Defining moments we’ll surely have
Do we use them to soothe and salve
Aligned to divine decree
Creator’s countenance yearn to see
* nature **faith, religion ***Prophet
