Welcome To Canada Syrian Refugees
This video made me cry. My kids have sung this song at Sunday school. It was sung to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings me upon him) when they sought refuge in Medinah. I can’t imagine such a display taking place today in America where parents go off the deep end if their child has an assignment that mentions Islam. Here- you have school children that not only learned an ancient, Islamic song – they belted it out for the Syrian refugees that have come to their country for refuge – belted it out like I’ve never heard before. What an example you have set for humanity, Canada! Proud to call you my neighbor to the north. I hope we can all learn lessons from your example. Thank you to Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau (seen welcoming refugees in the photo above), for giving Muslims in North America HOPE.
Lyrics to ‘Tala’ al-Badru ‘Alayna’ :
Oh the white moon rose over us
From the valley of Wada’
And we owe it to show gratefulness
Where the call is to Allah
Oh you, who were raised among us
Coming with a word to be obeyed
You have brought to this city nobleness,
Welcome best caller to God’s way
