“I leave you here,
for none but for Allah.”
He looked at her longingly
For one last time
His heart heavy as stone
Leaving her behind
Depressed and all alone
Leaving his son
One and only child
But for the cries of the child
She remained still and silent
Alone and unattended
Worried sick,
Unspoken of her fears
As time passed
Food grew scarce
Thirst and hunger
Slowly took over
She ran back and forth
From south up to north
In search of water
Weary, yet confident
Firm in her stance
Believing without flinching
In none but Him
Zam, Zam, Zam
His greatness shown
As the elixir of life flowed
Amidst the heat of day
Calming her fears
And all she could say
Was Alhamdulillah
