Oh, Christ worshipers! A Poem Refuting Christianity
أعباد المسيح لنا سؤال ... نريد جوابه ممن وعاه
Oh, Christ worshipers! We want an answer to our question from your wise.
إذا مات الإله بصنع قوم ... أماتوه فما هذا الإله
If the Lord was murdered by some people’s act…what sort of god is this?
وهل أرضاه ما نالوه منه ... فبشراهم إذاً نالوا رضاه
We wonder! Was He pleased by what they did Him? If yes,
blessed be they..they achieved the pleasure of His
وإن سخط الذي فعلوه فيه ... فقوّتهم إذاً أوهت قِواه
But if He was discontented….this means their power subjugated His!!
وهل بقي الوجود بلا إله ... سميع يستجيب لمن دعاه
Was the whole entity left without a Sustainer… so who answered the prayers?
وهل خلتِ الطباق السبع لما ... ثوى تحت التراب وقد علاه
Were the heavens vacated…when He laid under the ground somewheres?
وهل خلت العوالم من إلهٍ ... يدبرها وقد سُمرَت يداه
Were all the worlds left without a God…to manage while His hands were nailed?
وكيف تخلت الأملاك عنه ... بنصرهم وقد سمعوا بكاه
Why did not the angles help Him when they heard him while he wailed?
وكيف أطاقت الخشبات حمل الإله ... الحق شد على قفاه
How could the rods stand to bear the True Lord when He was fastened
وكيف دنا الحديد إليه حتى ... يخالطه ويلحقه أذاه
How could the iron reach Him and His body pinioned?
وكيف تمكنت أيدي عداه ... وطالت حيث قد صفعوا قفاه
How could His enemies’ hands reach Him and slap His rear
وهل عاد المسيح إلى حياة ... أم المحيي له ربّ سواه
And was Christ revived by himself…or the Reviver was another god?
ويا عجباً لقبر ضم رباً ... وأعْجَبَ منه بطن قد حواه
What a sight it is!A grave that enclosed a god!
What’s more weird is the belly that had Him in it!
أقام هناك تسعا من شهور ... لدى الظلمات من حيضٍ غِذَاه
He stayed there for nine months in utter darkness…fed by blood!
وشق الفرج مولودا صغيرا ... ضعيفا فاتحا للثدى فاه
Then he got out of the womb as a small baby,
weak and gaping to be breastfed!
ويأكل ثم يشرب ثم يأتي ... بلازم ذاك هل هذا إله
He ate and drank, and did what that naturally resulted in. 1
Is this a god??!!
تعالى الله عن إفك النصارى ... سيسأل كلهم عما افتراه
High Exalted be Allah above the lies of Christians
All of them will be held accountable for their libels
أعباد الصليب لأي معنى ... يعظّم أو يقبّح من رماه
Oh cross worshipers…for what reason is it exalted
and blamed who rejects it?
وهل تقضى العقول بغير كسر ... وإحراق له ولمن بغاه
Is it not the logic to break and burn it along with the one who innovated it?2
إذا ركَبَ الإله عليه كرها ... وقد شدت لتسمير يداه
Since the Lord was crucified on it…and his hands were fastened to it?
فذاك المركب الملعون حقا ... فدسه لا تبسه إذا تراه
That is really a cursed cross to carry…so discard it
Don’t kiss it!3
يهان عليه رب الخلق طرّا ... وتعبده فإنك من عداه
The Lord was abused on it…and you adore it?
So you are one of His enemies!!
فإن عظّمته من أجل أن قد ... حوى رب العباد وقد علاه
If you extol it because it carried the Lord of the worlds
وقد فقد الصليب فإن رأينا ... له شكلا تذكرنا سناه
why don’t you prostrate yourself and worship graves,
فهلا للقبور سجدت طُرّا ... لضم القبر ربَّك في حشاه
since the grave contained your god in it?
فيا عبد المسيح أفق فهذا ... بدايته وهذا منتهاه
So, Christ worshiper, open your eyes,
this is what the matter is all about.
