this poem was inspired by the loving memory of Abdullah ibn Omer Khalb(ra) and his gracious wife, Shaheeda Ummi Wahab (ra).
"My Heart is Baynol Haramain"
My mind is on the waging war
My hands are on a keyboard
My feet are busy running
My stomach is very hungry
My eyes are on my watch
My ears hear an impatient boss
I do this everyday
A routine so mundane
My blood is pumping through my veins
A reminder of love and pain
An obsession with two beautiful names
Abbas and Husayn, Abbas and Husayn
This world thinks I am insane
Abbas and Husayn
My heart is baynol haramain
Abbas and Husayn!
I travel around the globe
Like an orbiting probe
Observing the world I loathe
People in the same mode
In every city, town and road
That's why silent I will remain
I am quiet while you complain
Your life is such a drain
Chasing yourself without happiness attained
Plus your silly religion
You call it human intuition
A broken soul with no spiritual mission
I laugh at everything you claim
Your routine is so mundane
The domain of Karbala is my only aim
My heart is baynol haramain
Abbas and Husayn, Abbas and Husayn
My heart is baynol haramain
Abbas and Husayn!
Your depth is shallow
Your thoughts are confusion
You seek truth but your beliefs are an illusion
You sit and ask how though?
You study at an institution
You still have no conclusion
That's why I remain in seclusion
It's funny that you people call me strange
Your perception needs to change
The blood pumping through my veins
Is a reminder of love and pain
An obsession with two names
Abbas and Husayn, Abbas and Husayn
This world thinks I am insane
Abbas and Husayn
My heart is baynol haramain
Abbas and Husayn!
The mystics they've missed it
Ironically even they call me a misfit
They ponder on existence
Yet the answer is simplistic
Let me show you it in a single sand grain
Still they call me deranged
They say intercession has little gain
But I have no question; it has allowed me to fly like a crane
These mystics are superficial, they are surely not crystal
They are stuck in one dimension
You may not want to listen
But for those joining this expedition
You won't need a car, plane or train
It will start in the brain
Then your heart will link up the chain
By now you too may think I am lame
So silent I will remain
O' what a shame
This joy I feel inside may never be explained...
Supreme tranquility witnessed and obtained?
Only if you put your heart in Baynol Haramain
A reminder of love and pain, every heart can ascertain
This is the main feeling I can no longer contain
This is why the world thinks I am insane
My heart is baynol haramain
Abbas and Husayn!

and as a wise person said: "We can not move an inch without intercession."
