If prophet Muhammad visited you, Just for a day or two,
If he came unexpectedly, I wonder what you would do,
Oh, I know you'd give your nicest room, to such an honoured guest,
And all the food you'd served him, You're glad to have him there,
That serving him in your home, Is joy beyond compare.
BUT.. When you saw him coming, Would you meet him at the door,
With your arms outstretched in welcome, To your visitor?
Or.. would you have to change your clothes, Before you let him in?
Or hide some magazines and put, The Qur'an where they have been?
Would you still watch x-rated movies, on your TV set?
Or would you rush to switch it off, Before he gets upset?
Would you turn off the radio, And hope he hadn't heard?
And wish you hadn't utter, That last loud, hasty word?
Would you hide your worldly music, And instead take Hadith book out?
Could you let him walk right in, or would you rush about?
And I wonder.. If the Prophet spent, A day or two days with you,
Would you go right on doing, Everything you always do?
Would you go right on saying the things you always say?
Would life for you continue, As it does from day to day?
Would your family conversation, Keep up its usual pace?
And would you find it hard each meal, To say a table grace?
Would you keep up each and every prayer, Would you put on a frown?
Would you always jump up early, For prayer at dawn?
Would you sing the song you always sing, And read the books you always read?
And let him know the things on what your mind and spirit fed?
Would you take the Prophet with you, Everywhere you plan to go,
Or, would you change the plans, Just for a day or so?
Would you be glad to have him meet, Your very closest friends?
Or, would you hope they stay away, until his visit ends?
Would you be glad to have him stay, Forever on and on?
Or, would you sigh a great relief, When he last was gone?
It might be interesting to know, The things that you would do,
If the prophet Muhammad, in person, Came to spend some time with you.
