Eid al Adha and Islam
By Apolinario Villalobos
By submission one seeks the way to God with strong will
As shown by Abraham consenting to sacrifice his son Ismael
Essence of faith at later days spread by inspired Mohammed
To ensure that life in glory, all of us by God’s grace we’ll lead.
A day of repentance… a day of sacrifice
For a year of one’s life may just be a thin slice
Crucial day one must not let pass just like that
If this happens, woe to him who will miss a lot!
Let this day then mark the start of a journey
On a path towards Him, a blinding light of Mercy
Just like Mohammed guided by angel Gabriel
Let’s surrender if we don’t want the fire of hell!
