Intro:
Assalamu 'alaikum
Verse 1:
As he left the streets of Mecca
He was trying find a home
A place for the believers
Leaving their troubles behind
As he walked through the desert
He was thinking bout his life
10 years into revelation
It was a trying, testing time
He had just lost his wife
Khadijah, umm ul mu'mineen
And he also lost Abu Talib
His protector from Quraish
Pre Chorus:
We'll never no
The burden on his shoulders
The message came from up above
He struggled for you and I
Chorus: (x2)
RasoolAllah
Khalilullah
Sallallahu alayhi wasallam
Verse 2:
So many thoughts had crossed his mind
While he travelled on this journey
Now he came across a town
His destination, At-Taif
And he walked into the house
Of the leaders of Taif
And he called them to Islam
La ilaaha illallah
They did not care what he had to say
Straight away dismissed the Prophet
Making fun and mocking his message
They told him "Leave, you're not welcome here"
Pre Chorus:
We'll never no
The burden on his shoulders
The message came from up above
He struggled for you and I
Chorus: (x2)
RasoolAllah
Khalilullah
Sallallahu alayhi wasallam
Verse 3:
Now the tragedy begins
The prophet ups and leaves
The people of the town
Curse and mock the Chosen One
As if this was not enough
They started throwing stones
Telling this story breaks my heart
He was bleeding head to toe
The Prophet runs away from harm
Finding shelter under a tree
His blessed body covered with blood
And he sits down and prays
Bridge/Middle 8:
To Allah, he called with a beautiful dua
So powerful and humbling, was the prayer of the Prophet
Straight away, a response from Allah
Angel Jibrail came from above with the Angel of the Mountains of Taif
Jibrail alayhi salam said
"Oh prophet of Allah
I have bought the Angel of the Mountains of Taif
He will destroy that town and the people who hurt you
Your Lord has seen your pain and he's sent us down to you
Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him
He looked at the angels said, "don't hurt them
They do not know and I forgive them
In'shaa'Allah one day they will come to Islam"
Look how amazing our Prophet was
Chorus: (x2)
RasoolAllah
Khalilullah
Sallallahu alayhi wasallam
