I love you - Imam Mehdi!

Since a week, I have been struggling over an impossible deadline - of starting and finishing a whole Madressa Yearbook - that too, a Bumper Issue (2005 - 2007)..

Even though, as I type this, I'm quite hopeless and in despair - especially with a hand that's still aching, and the fact that the Magazine cannot possibly done in time to be circulated on the 9th of June, and quite a lot of people around me have been bearing with my tantrums (my sincere apologies for that) - I just wanted to put up the one thing that, after having finished, gave me peace of mind and heart.

This was one major part of the Yearbook that was strenuous to work with because I had to color in, layout and edit the poem on it. But hats off to Syeda Hira Fatima, who understood so easily what I had roughly and briefly expressed to her last year, and in return, she illustrated it out so beautifully!

Here is the Poem - on what will be the centrespread poster of our Madressa magazine InshaAllah. Indeed, it gave me sukoon - to be able to express my love to the Imam of our time. I hope this humble effort from Hira and myself, is accepted by Imam e Zamaan (ATF), his great grandmother Bibi Fatima Zahra (SA), and Allah (SWT).

Fatigued to write anymore,
