[0:00][Applause] [Music] m dear brothers and sisters respected Scholars um it is

[0:37]with great honor and pleasure I join you here today to commemorate

[0:40]the birth of IM and to honor IM I've prepared a poem

[0:50]and in this poem I say is it my eyes that don't

[0:59]see or is it that you don't want me is it my

[1:03]eyes that don't see or is it that you don't want me

[1:08]like the Sun but for too long you've been behind a cloud

[1:11]as our patience has been exhausted preparing for a shroud yet the

[1:18]15th of shaan arrived to join us once again yet the 15th

[1:23]of shaan has arrived to join us once again as our only

[1:28]means of communication Remains the paper and pen so we write to

[1:32]you so we write to you our beloved to celebrate your day

[1:37]we shared the first five together but the rest you were away

[1:40]we shared the first five together but the rest you were away

[1:43]they question how a leader could be so young did not Jesus

[1:48]in his cradle speak with his tongue except your cradle what AWA

[1:52]to do were guards and chains except your cradle what a way

[1:57]to do were guards and chains as they hope to eliminate faa's

[2:01]line and whatever remains they plan to kill but the Lord planed

[2:07]to conceal as he guided your mother when in Her Dream he

[2:11]would reveal as he guided your mother when in Her Dream he

[2:14]would reveal a conversation between maram and FAA it was quite a

[2:18]beautiful sight as they spoke of where Allah wanted to place his

[2:23]light in the womb of your mother a hope for all those

[2:24]who despair in the womb of your mother a hope for all

[2:30]those who Des bear as the Lord promised for the week his

[2:34]favors he would share like Prophet musa's mother your mother displayed no

[2:39]sign as time went by like Prophet musa's mother your mother displayed

[2:43]no sign as time went by hidden by his Mercy from every

[2:50]envious and ill- wishing eye hidden by his Mercy from every envious

[2:53]and ill- wishing eye so are our sinful eyes worth seeing your

[2:56]beautiful face or when you think of us you think of of

[3:00]disgrace when we call you does it bring Comfort to your lonely

[3:06]heart or does it bring Darkness to your night and delays your

[3:09]start we call you when we want you and at other times

[3:13]we neglect yet when you come out for justice we all fear

[3:15]your reject we pray to have been alongside Hussein every time his

[3:22]tragedy is recited but what have we done but what have we

[3:25]done when a tragedy in your heart has been ignited so we

[3:30]write to you our beloved so we write to you our beloved

[3:35]once again with our hearts and our hand we pray to strive

[3:37]for your cause so with you we can stand as we ask

[3:41]as we ask where are the Rising Suns and The Illuminating moons

[3:45]of your line where are the brilliant stars and the chosen ones

[3:48]from the Divine where is the revivor of the religion and the

[3:53]one that will uphold the Lord's signs where is the connector of

[3:57]the heavens and the earth and the protector of the shrines where

[4:00]is the Avenger where is the Avenger of what zab's eyes witnessed

[4:06]on those Plains where is the revealer of faa's grave that holds

[4:10]the secrets of her pains oh lovers oh lovers don't allow Fatima's

[4:15]tragedy to happen once more this time the m is between and

[4:20]our sins are the nail on the door this time the m

[4:22]is between and our sins are the nail on the door for

[4:27]years and years his door has been waiting even time grew old

[4:30]for years and years his door has been waiting even time grew

[4:35]old as we await his reappearance and the Beautiful story to unfold

[4:39]he joins us in Hajj and at other occasions he joins us

[4:45]in Hajj and at other occasions so he is always near only

[4:47]for those who for him and his cause sincerely shed a tear

[4:53]so we ask ourselves so we ask ourselves are we worthy of

[4:56]such honor and praise or are we the reason behind his prolonged

[5:00]nights and days with our actions are we ready to tell him

[5:07]come back with our actions are we ready to tell him come

[5:09]back or will we leave him so that the enemy can attack

[5:14]he is ready whenever the Lord Wills for him to be he

[5:19]is ready whenever the Lord Wills for him to be ready to

[5:21]uphold the banner of his grandfather Ali but how scary but how

[5:27]scary if some of us don't recognize our well or if he

[5:30]decides that our actions aren't worthy or if he decides our actions

[5:37]aren't worthy so is it my eyes that don't see or is

[5:39]it that you don't want me is it my eyes that don't

[5:43]see or is it that you don't want me Muhammad Ali Muhammad
