What is there kept in the well, the well of Badr,(The owners of) lady singers and friends of the honourable companions; who used to drink (wine) together? Umm Bakr greets us with the greeting of peace,But can I find peace after my people have gone? The Messenger tells us that we shall live again, But what sort of life will owls and skulls live?(1)
