Mercy to Mankind Lyrics

Mawlaya Salli Wassalim da-Iman Abadan
Ala Habi Bika Khairil Khalqi Kullimi (2x)
(O my Lord send peace and blessings upon your Beloved (PBUH)
The best of all creations.)

Have you read about the time, he stepped from his house,
There was trash at his door
Calmly he gathered trash that was scattered,
But every day there was more.

But one day it was missing, so he went to visit
that neighbor was ill
The neighbor, amazed at the kindness displayed
Despite all the trash he would spill

Or what about the time when he came to a town,
in hope of spreading this word
But the leaders sent the children to to chase and to and stone him
Till he bleeding and hurt.

But he was given the choice, that this town be destroyed
But our Prophet refused
He said I hope for the children, will one day be given
this guidance the light they will choose

[Chorus]
He was a mercy, a mercy to all of mankind
He was a mercy, a mercy to all of mankind
He was a mercy, a mercy to all of mankind
He was a mercy, a mercy to all of mankind
He was Rahmatan, Rahmatan lilalameen,
He was Rahmatan, Rahmatan lilalameen,

Did you hear about the time, he saw a bird in distress
Her young ones were taken away
He ordered the man to return all of them
And taught not treat them this way

Or what about the time, he was given some lamb by this lady one time
But as he started to eat, he was warned of the meat,
the lady put poison inside.

When they brought her to him, he asked her the truth
She admitted what she had done
But despite her behavior, the prophet forgave her
His kindness would shine like the sun

So many stories, his justice and mercy
He grace all we can see
At conquest of Mecca, the foes who had fought him
he said, you all be free, be free.

[chorus]

Lately people talking, stuff about my Prophet
They see our numbers rising, so they make him a target,
Agitate the Muslims, get money in their pocket
We just work to spread the truth and make sure people got it.

Like how he treated neighbors with all the love and care,
Examples that he gave us, to be honest and fair.
How to be forgiving, respecting every faith
Giving rights to the women, at war how to behave

The women and the children and every innocent
Should be protected no matter how oppressed we get
So we know they’re saying stuff about the Prophet that ain’t true
They did that at the prophets time so this ain’t nothing new

Did he worry what the people said after he passed
Or was he more concerned about us doing what he asked
Do our deeds tell the story of the man he was
A Mercy to Mankind, lets show the world his love

[chorus]
