Zain Bhikha
The Prophet’s Faithful Friend
Playing on the dessert sand
Two friends forever true
Little did they know back then
What their paths were destined to
Companions spreading the word
To the people who needed to hear
How readily did he accept
Muhammad’s message from God
Abu Bakr – As Siddiq
The prophet’s faithful friend
Trusted and protected him
His love had no end
Abu Bakr, As-siddiq
Allah be pleased with him
Companion in Jannah
Oh blessed by Allah
Abu Bakr – As siddiq
The Prophets faithful friend
Riding on the dessert sand
Two friends forever true
And this much did they know right then
Allah would see them through
Companions on their way alone
Seeking refuge in mount thoor
Their trust only in Allah’s care
Filled their hearts and souls with noor
As-Siddiq, best of men
The Prophet praised you so
You shared and defended
You helped the message grow
And unto the very end
The Prophets faithful friend
Alone in the desert sand
Abu-Bakr stands and cries
Tears roll onto his hand
At the Prophets demise
For they had stood before all
As boys and then as men
Believers unto one God
The Prophet and his friend
