Here is a poem that speaks about three different kinds of relations between parents and their children, separated by ***. “they” == parents and “he” == their child A Blessing or A Trial?
It is indeed Allah’s extremely great favor
A blessing, parents will, their entire life savor
A mother can’t stop smiling at the thought
A father’s excitement is, in its place, ought
They take heed of their child intensely
He is the one who would complete the family
******************
In their decision, he is of highest priority
He is more valuable then all their property
He feels the warmth of their speech
And maintains a comfort level with each
He obeys them just as the Creator has commanded
Never were they harsh in what they demanded
It is this wonderful feeling of bliss and solace
That constantly, carries on life at a steady pace
******************
Yes! there are some who, from their child turn off
When earning good deeds is all he thinks of
Whose guide is his own Lord, most Merciful
How do they not feel, they need to be grateful
Doesn’t he deserve their rightful love & care
When going against his Deen, he doesn’t dare
He is fairly knowledgeable at his young age
But in this fleeting world, they want him to engage
******************
Yes! there are some to whom life means grief
As they see their child doing severe mischief
That would take him far away from ALLAH’s Mercy
Their painful eyes filled with tears, can’t he see?
Doesn’t he see them drown in their own tears?
Why it is, that he is ignorant of their fears?
Their counsel sounds like waves painfully touching the shore
But he carelessly wipes off their earnest words with a lour
******************
May ALLAH elevate those parents place in Paradise
who have nurtured their child with traits, gentle & wise
May ALLAH forgive & guide those parents who may have sins piled
As they have never tried understanding their righteous child
May ALLAH give those parents patience as strong as mountains
whose child’s disobedience has been the core of all their pains
If its good, its written by: me
And if its not good, its still written by: me
