However, its message goes farther than that of the pervious one. The main message is in praise and support of sacrifice in the cause of God and contentment with what material resources are available after making these sacrifices. The inspiration for this poem comes from the Holy Qur’an 2:153-157. The poem ends with a sincere supplication to God to create the degree of aman among Muslims which would make them attain that ideal.'

It was the biggest and the most fortified stronghold of Jews in the Arabian Peninsula. The Jews, living there in prosperity, were the biggest adversaries of Islam at that time. They were constantly plotting against Islam in collusion with the pagan and hypocrite Arab tribes. This state of affairs could not be tolerated for long and the Holy Prophet (S.A.W) was compelled to invade Khaibar in 629. At that time Khaibar comprised six fortresses, the strongest and safest of which was Qamus, which was headed by Marhab. He was a Jewish hero and was considered to be equivalent to a thousand cavalry men on account of his strength and bravery. This fortress was finally attacked by Muslims under the leadership of S. ‘Ala (R.A.) after several unsuccessful attempts under other leaders. Marhab made his appearance first, very heavily armed in full armor. He was engaged in battle by S. ‘Ali (R.A). After a short engagement S.‘Ala (R.A.) killed him and the fortress fell. According to this hemistich marhaba or the anti-Islamic activities of Marhab still persist. The strength and prowess of Sayyidina ‘Ali (R.A) also persist till today.
