Zain Bhikha - The Prophet's Faithful Friend lyrics

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
