Hajj is compulsory for the Muslims <br />Who are able to perform it <br />From every point of view <br /> <br />During Hajj the pilgrims <br />Wear a white piece of cloth <br />Which resembles the cloth <br />Of the Muslim’s corpse <br />To remind them <br />One day they will die and face God <br />It also reminds them <br />All are equal in the eyes of God <br />God will see only our works <br />And the prayers of others for us <br />On the Day of Judgment <br /> <br />The circling around the holy Kaba <br />Reminds us of the angels <br />Who circle around the throne of God <br /> <br />When we say, I am present O God <br />I am present and so on <br />God’s body looks at us and listens <br /> <br />When we perform Salat <br />During Hajj <br />God becomes more than happy <br />Because so many people together <br />Surrender to God at one point of time <br />In the most holy land of earth <br /> <br />When we run to and fro <br />On the Safa and Marowa hills <br />It reminds us of the sorrowful sight <br />Of mother Hazera <br />The wife of prophet Abraham <br /> <br />When we throw stones at Satan <br />It reminds us of the patience <br />And dependence on God <br />Of prophet Abraham <br />And prophet Ismile <br /> <br />At last when we reach <br />The holy field of Arafat <br />It reminds us of the joy <br />Of prophet Adam and Eve <br />When they fell down on earth <br />From paradise <br />And met each other <br />After a long long time<br /><br />Asif Andalib<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/hajj/
