Asiya ( a.s.)

An elegant Queen in human history,

God’s chosen servant,epitome of honour and dignity,

With all beauty and riches the Queen had rare quality,

Generosity was the virtue of which she was known widely,

Seeing little Musa(a.s.),her heart was filled with pity,

She persuaded Pharaoh to keep the child permanently,

Raised Musa(a.s.) as her son,loved him immensely,

Believed in his message,held to her faith firmly,

Knowing about her faith Pharaoh tortured her severely,

Living a life of luxury she never faced adversity,

She rebelled against Pharaoh’s coercion and tyranny,

Her will unbowed,her soul was no coward entity,

Her soul longed to meet her Lord to be in His company,

Pain,agony,thirst,heat of sand was now her destiny,

Whence persecuted by Pharaoh the cruel symbol of tyranny,

By will of Allah angels descended and shaded her completely,

Seeing her palace in heavens,besides her Lord her imaan grew immensely,

She prayed Allah from deliverance of Pharoah and his men completely,

She implored  Lord to take her soul before they crush her body,

Allah took her soul before boulder landed on her body,

Her soul left the body to dwell in heavens peacefully,

A great martyr,whose neighbour is Allah(s.w.t),living in close proximity.
