Kiya Hum Hi Sayyida Ki Dua Hein

Kiya Hum Hi Sayyida Ki Dua Hein

Ali Deep Rizvi

A poet asks the community of mourners to reflect on their actions and see if they truly live up to the legacy of Bibi Fatima.

Noha

Kya Ham Hi Sayyida Ki Dua Hain?

Are we truly the prayers of the Lady (Sayyida) answered?

Goonji Thi Jo Karbal Me Halmin Ki Sada Hai;;;

The cry of 'Is there any helper?' that echoed in Karbala remains.

Gham Khwar Hain Maula Ke Ham Hi Ahle Aza Hain;;; Socho Ye Azadaron, Shabbir Ke Gham Khwaron !!!!!

We are the mourners, the sympathizers of the Master. Think on this, O mourners, O those who grieve for Shabbir.

Bibi Ne Sikhaya Tha Jo Majlis Ka Tareeqa;;; Hamne To Badal Daala Hai Ab Iska Tareeqa;;; Apnayi Dikhawat Ki Banawat Ki Rusumaat;;; Aur Inko Bhi Kahte Hain Ibadat Ka Tareeqa;;;

The method of the Majlis that the Lady (Bibi) taught, We have now changed its very way. We have adopted rituals of show and pretense, And we even call these a form of worship.

Taqleed Pe Ham Log Bharosa Nahin Karte;;; Gheebat Hai Bura Kaam Yahi Kaam Hi Karte;;; Naaraz Na Ho Jayen Kahin Aale Muhammad ;;; Is Baat Ki Parwaah Magar Ham Nahin Karte;;;

We do not rely on following the guidance (Taqleed), Backbiting is a grave sin, yet this is what we do. We do not even care about the possibility That the Progeny of Muhammad (Aale Muhammad) might be displeased.

Padhte Nahin Qur'aan Namaze'n Nahin Padhte;;; Wajib Hain Jo Ahkam Ada Wo Nahin Karte;;; Rakhte Hain Aqeedat Pe Hi Bakhshish Ka Bharosa;;; Momin Ye Kabhi Kaam Kiya Hi Nahin Karte;;;

We do not recite the Quran, we do not pray our prayers, We do not perform the duties that are obligatory. We rely only on our devotion for salvation, True believers never act in such a way.

Masjid Me Siyasat Hai To Mimbar Pe Siyasat;;; Mahfil Me Siyasat Hai To Majlis Me Siyasat;;; Kirdaar Kashi Karne Me Ham Sabse Hain Aage;;; Ab Isse Badi Kya Ho Bhala Aur Qayamat;;;

There is politics in the mosque, and politics on the pulpit, There is politics in the gathering, and politics in the Majlis. We are at the forefront of character assassination, What greater calamity could there possibly be than this?

Majlis Me Ghame Shaah Ki Karte Hain Dikhawe;;; Maqsad Ko Bhula Baithe Hain Ham Karbobala Ke;;; Farshe Aza Pe Ab Na Aqeedat Na Ehtraam;;; Jiddat Pasandi Aa Gayi Ikhlaas Bhula Ke;;;

In the Majlis, we put on shows of mourning for the King (Imam Hussain), We have forgotten the purpose of Karbala. On the mourning carpet, there is neither devotion nor respect left, Modernism has arrived, making us forget sincerity.

Maa Bahno Ke Sar Pe Hamein Chadar Nahin Dikhti;;; Na Mahramo Ko Dekh Ke Gardan Nahin Jhhukti;;; Aati Hain Muharram Me Har Ek Ghar Meri Bibi;;; Ye Dekh Ke Halaat Wo Kya Sochti Hongi;;;

We do not see the veil (chadar) on the heads of our mothers and sisters, Our heads do not bow when we see strangers (non-mehram). My Lady (Bibi) visits every home during Muharram, What must she think when she sees these conditions?

Ham Log Azadar Hain Karte Hain Ye Charche;;; Khoon E Gham E Shabbir Ke Ham Karte Hain Saude;;; Maulana Ho Zakir Ho Ya Masjid Ke Nigehbaan;;; Kirdaar O Amal Apna Khara Ham Nahin Karte;;;

We claim to be mourners, we talk about it, We trade in the blood of Shabbir's grief. Whether it is the scholar, the orator, or the caretakers of the mosque, We do not keep our character and deeds upright.

Wo Izn Agar Dete Hain Ham Padhte Hain Nauhe;;; Wo Izn Agar Dete Hain Ham Likhte Hain Nauhe;;; Ham Apni Numaish Me Magan Aaj Hain Aise;;; Fankaar Bane Baithe Hain Ham Zikr Ke Inse;;;

If they grant permission, we recite the dirges (nauhas), If they grant permission, we write the dirges. We are so engrossed in our own display today, That we have become mere performers of this remembrance.

Socho Ye Azadaron Ye Tanhayi Me Jakar;;; Kis Baat Pe Tanqeed Hui Ham Pe Ye Aakhir;;; Ham Door Karein Saari Burayi Ko Amal Se;;; Ek Jaisa Banayen Chalo Ham Baatin O Zaahir;;;

Think, O mourners, when you go into solitude, What is the criticism leveled against us after all? Let us remove all evil from our actions, Let us make our inner and outer selves the same.

Khush Ho Gayin Bibi To Duaen Hamein Dengi;;; Jannat Me Momino Se Wo Jab Aake Milengi;;; Kirdaar O Amal Se Jo Kiya Hamne Ye Saabit;;; Phir Dekhna Ye Fatima Zahra Bhi Kahengi;;; Haa'n Tum Hi Sayyida Ki Dua Ho!!!! Haa'n Tum Hi Sayyida Ki Dua Ho!!!!

If the Lady (Bibi) is pleased, she will give us prayers, When she comes to meet the believers in Paradise. If we prove this through our character and deeds, Then watch, even Fatima Zahra will say: Yes, you are indeed the prayers of the Lady answered, Yes, you are indeed the prayers of the Lady answered.
