BULLEH KEE JANAAN MAIN KAUN

Bulleha least I know who am I ?                                                            

Neither  am  I a believer in mosque
Neither have  I trodden the infidel’s path
Neithe am I pious in sinful
Nor I Moses in Pharaohs
Bulleha least I know who am I ?

Nothing I have to do with piety or putrescence
Nor  am I in pleasure or grief
Neither am I of water nor of earth
Neither am I of fire nor of air
Bulleha least I know who am I ?

Neither I found the secret of religion
Nor was I born of Adam or Eve
Neither I gave me any name
Neither am I of those who squat
Nor I have to do with dwelling
Bulleha least I know who am I ?

From the beginning to the end
I know nothing but me
Nobody else I recognize and found
Nobody else more sage than thee
Bulleha who Spouse is around
Bulleha least I know who am I

KHALID BIN WALEED:AN OUTSTANDING GENERAL



Introduction
Khalid Bin Walid the sword of Allah
Born and brought up in the holy city of Makkah in the Makhzum tribe, this outstanding soldier of Islam contributed exceptionally to the early spread of Islam in the Arabian Peninsula. His household had distinguished in military services generation after generation. Khalid bin Walid himself was very smart agile and a talented youth. He soon became one of the selected youngsters of the Quraish. He was honoured with the respected title of Saif Ullah the sword of Allah at the occasion of war of Mutah by the Holy Prophet ( PBUH) himself. Later he was mostly known by the title alone. He shattered Byzantine empire in particular and the Persian empire in general. The two giants of the time.


Blood, Birth and Complexion
Khalid was born in the Banu Makhzum  tribe of the Quraish. The Banu Makhzum tribe enjoyed special standing and respect among the Quraish. It was second important tribe after the Banu Hashim. In per-Islamic age, Makkah was inhabited by ten tranches of  the Quraish, namely, he Bani Umayya, the Bani Nawfal, the Banu Abdud-Dar the , Bani Asad, the Bani Tayyam, the Bani Makhzum, the Bani Adi, the Bani jamah and the Bani Sama. The responsibility of Providing horses and catering for martial camps was shouldered by the Bani Makhzum. Mukhzum in fact was the fifth grandfather of khalid after whom the tribe got its name.
He was born 31 years before the advent of the hijra calendar. His father, Abd Ushmas al Walid Makhzumi, was an affluent person who owned large expanse f orchards from Makkah to Taif. He used to fete the pilgrims on the eve of Hajj every year. His mother, lubaba, was the real sister of Hazrat Maimuna, the Holy spouse of Prophet Muhammad . Hazrat Muhammad was thus , his real uncle. No historian has provided description of his features. What we have known from a weak  tradition is that he was podgy and strong with wide and broad chest. His face was marked with the scars of smallpox.
