The importance of friendship

When I'm feeling weak
Temptations growing
My faith has a leak
Without even knowing

Left unaddressed
Life falls apart
End up depressed
A disease in my heart

Call out to my Lord
I need some support
I cannot afford
This on my report

He sent me a friend
Nay, more like a brother
Now on the mend
We're improving each other

Zubair ibn Awwam (radiAllahu anhu)

A great man, cousin of the prophet ﷺ An early convert, and proud of it Treated and tortured so harshly Migrated to escape from his family The first of the migrants to have a son Into battle he would always run The prophet ﷺ named him his disciple An envious title among the people The father of a caliph & a scholar He & his family, far from regular A name mentioned in the six & ten Commanded in battle, thousands of men One of the names involved in the tribulation But then left the scene upon contemplation Betrayed in prayer, stabbed in the neck The culprits future, sure to be a wreck
