To my belovedA Chapter by Templatecash There is a man whom they call Ishmael, And he was alone. He cried out to God, the sustainer, for love, a partner to call his wife. There was also a woman, whom cried out to God, the giver, to bring her love and mercy unto for she too was alone. God, All mighty, answered. Only beneath these heavens such are these wonderous miracles preformed. They had met, and fell in love in the path of God, glorious is he. Mercy was granted to the woman, and love blossomed fruitfully within them both, They shared the promise of paradise in all their thankfulness to God, The compassionate. Their companionship grew deeper still, And soon had been Married, The Woman would testify her faith to God, The highest, and Ishmael, chose a name most befitting. He called her Madinah, for she was now a place where the Prophet (peace be upon him) had enlightened. Madinah, now loved her name, and loved her husband Ishmael, and for more time they two reveled in God, the highest, and had his grace that they were happy, with one another, the answer to both their prayers. Twas, not long though, that a Fox, had come along and bestowed favours upon them, In their foolishness, they ate from the tables of this Fox. God, the sustainer had warned, not to take disbelievers as as friends nor accept their counsel. For, the Fox, wanted only to lead them astray. Yet, they would not listen to wisdom, therefor wisdom had left them. Madinah , found vanity to replace wisdom in the looking glass, and by the whispers of the Fox, whom made her blush, and for him, she would blush shamelessly. Ishmael was distraught by this revelation, He cried out to God, The highest, why had his Madinah taken to this Fox ? Why does she not walk by my side, instead she walks ahead only looking back to see I am still there. His heart had broke, for, His paradise was lost. The precious gift of love from God, the merciful giver, was now gone. And for a time it was that way. Yet, not much time would pass before Madinah, found vanity would forsake her, And the Fox would turn becoming cruel in his ways. He would be unpleasant to her, that his favours no longer satisfied her heart. She cried out to the Fox, in protest. Why, did I leave, my Ishmael and Gods, way, to be with you, whom scorn me now, that you whom stole me! away, are satisfied. The Fox, replied, Madinah, what challenge was it to me ? That I possess these luxuries you fancy after, Or that I spoke to you as only Ishmael, he your husband should had, That you put up no defense, that you excused. I use this against you, and charge it so. For, now he has abandoned you and you are dispised, what should I care you are mistreated and are in disgrace. Then who else, but I one so clever, should have you?... This had stung her deeply... It would not be long that God, who hears all, would know of Madinah , for her cries out, reached him. And he saw what pity the Fox, had left her. For, in the Fox's, intent was not purity, but perversion, as he mock God,All Might, openly, Yet, God, Most Powerful, would set against him. Purity would re-immerge within the heart of Madinah, For she missed beloved Ishmael, who still loved her so selflessly, to pray for her return. that they might amend their ways and continue the path of God,the highest, in order to share in love again, their love. God, the provider, then reveiled to Ishmael, a portion of his God's, will That would secure Madinah and Ishmael a means to a most ambivilent plot. For, this Fox's treachary was manifest in error. Only then would Ishmael and Madinah, endure. When Madinah, asked for what she must do in order this to be so. Ishmael, replied. "now that you have the Fox, Skin him! and bring back to me his coat."" ... Ishmael then continued, "Did he not, out fox himself !? " © 2017 Templatecash |
