A poem written on the Islamic fasting month of Ramadan describing its uncountable blessings. Divine Love.

THE BLESSED MONTH OF RAMADAN

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is the holy, fasting month of Ramadan, for all the believing Muslims of the world. I have mentioned some of the merits of the month. I have also mentioned about "The Night of Power" also known as "The Night of Decrees" described in Arabic as "Lailatal Qadr" which according to the verses in The Glorious Holy Qur'an is a night which is better in its blessings of peace and mercy than a thousand months. I have only highlighted and compared the errors of those Muslims who are fighting for the power, wealth, glory and temporal joys and pleasures of this temporal world --- a world which has to end one day defined as its Last Day/Judgement Day; even during this holy month in which every believing Muslim must turn to The God Almighty defined in Arabic as ALLAH and seek His forgiveness, mercy and blessings and thank Him for his countless favours on us. I can go on and on but I have chosen to keep the poem as long as it needs to be so that there is no strain on the mind of the reader especially the discerning one  and the seeker of truth and enlightenment. I hope the poem is appreciated by one and all because I have only written the truth and defamed nobody at any place. I have only mentioned the facts of war and strife as they are in full swing --- as revealed by the news shows on radio, television and even the Internet. My intention is sincere and honest, without any bias towards anyone belonging to any religion, so I hope the message is grasped well. Let me point it out here the fact as well that I have mentioned the word "The Paraclete" for the Prophet Muhammad (May Allah,s blessings and peace be upon him) as it is taken from the Greek word "Paracletos" which in its real true meaning is "The Praised One" and not the "Comforter" as mentioned in the King James Version and other versions of the Holy Bible. And as the names MUHAMMAD/AHMED also mean "THE PRAISED ONE" so I have mentioned it here. The coming of The Paraclete is mentioned at several places in the Bible and quite clearly too. However, my purpose here is to make the reader aware of what he/she is reading and it is not meant to indulge in a debate or argument. My poem is plain and positive and I hope it is read the same way.

*MADINAH: The second most important city for the believing Muslims of the world which is famous as the city of Prophet Muhammad (May Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). Its importance is after Holy Makkah, in Saudi Arabia, where the first House of God was built by the Prophet Abraham and his son Ismail (Peace be upon them) (According to Islamic history and archaelogical authentication). The first House of God The Almighty, the One and the Only, is the Kaaba....which is more than 5,000 years old, according to historical calculations.
