(മലബാറിൽ നിന്നും പുറത്തു നിന്നുമായി 3500 പേരിലധികം കുടുംബാന്ഗംങളെ പങ്കെടുപ്പിച്ചു   കര്പ്പൂർ ഹജ്ജ് ഹൌസിൽ സംഘടിപ്പിച്ച 2003 ഡിസംബര് 25 ലെ കാരി കുടുംബ സംഗമത്തിലെ ചര്ച്ചകളെ അടിസ്ഥാനമാക്കിയാണ് ഈ കുറിപ്പ്‌ എഴുതിയിട്ടുള്ളത്)

കേരളത്തിലെ ഒരു പുരാതന മുസ്ലിം കുടുംബമാണ് കാരി കുടുംബം.മലപ്പുറം ,കോഴിക്കോട്,വയനാട് ജില്ലകളിലായി വ്യാപിച്ചു കിടക്കുന്ന ഈ കുടുംബം കുടകിലും നീലഗിരിയിലുമൊക്കെ കാണപ്പെടുന്നു.

നെടിയിരുപ്പിലെഴും മറ്റത്തൂരിലെഴും  തല മുതിര്ന്ന കുടുംബ കാരണവന്മാര്  പറയുന്നത് പ്രകാരം 'ഖാരി' (ഖുര്-ആന് നന്നായി ഓതുകയും പഠിപ്പിക്കുകയും ചെയ്യുന്ന വ്യക്തി) ആയിരുന്ന ഒരു പിതാമഹനിലെക്കു ചേര്ത്താണ് ഈ കുടുംബത്തിന്റെ പേര് രൂപം കൊണ്ടത് .പിന്നീട് അത് 'കാരി' എന്ന് ലോപിക്കുകയായിരുന്നു ..الله أعلم 

മറ്റത്തൂര് - മുനമ്പത്ത് (മംബ്ര) സ്ഥിതി ചെയ്യുന്ന പുരാതനമായ 'കാരി മസ്ജിദ്' 
300 വർഷത്തിലേറെ പഴക്കമുള്ള തറവാട് പള്ളിയാണ് .മമ്പുറം തങ്ങളുടെ കാലത്ത്(1849) നടന്ന ചേറൂര് പടയിലെ ഒരു പടയാളി ഈ പള്ളിയിലെ സുബഹി നമസ്കാരത്തിന് ശേഷമാണ് പടക്ക് പുറപപെട്ടെതെന്നു രേഖപ്പെടുത്തപ്പെട്ടിട്ടുണ്ട്.

മമ്പുറം തങ്ങളുമായി കാരി കുടുംബത്തിനു നല്ല ബന്ധമുണ്ടായിരുന്നതായി കാരണവന്മാര് പറയുന്നു.

കുടുംബത്തിന്റെ ഉദ്ഭവ സ്ഥാനത്തെ കുറിച്ച് വ്യക്തമായ തെളിവ്  ലഭ്യമല്ല.ഏതായാലും വര്ഷങ്ങളായി കുടുംബത്തിന്റ പ്രഭവ  കേന്ദ്രങ്ങളായി  അറിയപ്പെടുന്നത്  നെടിയിരുപ്പ്‌ ,മറ്റത്തൂര്,വേങ്ങര കുറ്റാളൂര്   എന്നിവയാണ്.

പിന്നീട് .കാലക്രമേണെ കോഴിക്കോട് മുക്കം ,മലപ്പുറം ജില്ലയിലെ വിവിധ  പത്തോളം പ്രദേശങ്ങളിലും കാരി കുടുംബം വ്യാപിച്ചു. വയനാടിലും കാരി കുടുംബം ഏറെ കാണപ്പെടുന്നു .

ഇന്ന് നെടിയിരുപ്പിലെ 'കാരിമുക്ക്' ആണ്  കാരി കുടുംബത്തിന്റെ ഏറ്റവും വലിയ കേന്ദ്രം.കാരിമുക്കിലെ പള്ളിക്ക്  ഏറെ പഴക്കമുണ്ട് .

2013 ഡിസംബര് 25 നു കരിപ്പൂര് ഹജ്ജ് ഹൌസിൽ സംഘടിപ്പിക്കപ്പെട്ട ആദ്യ കുടുംബ സംഗമത്തിൽ 3500 ലധികം പേര് പങ്കെടുക്കുകയുണ്ടായി. മുസ്ലിം ലീഗ് നേതാവും മന്ത്രിയുമായ P.K കുഞ്ഞാലികുട്ടി,കോണ്ഗ്രസ് നേതാവ് എം.ഐ  ഷാനവാസ് എന്നിവരടക്കം മിക്ക രാഷ്ട്രീയ പാര്ടികളുടെയും ഉന്നത നേതാക്കളും മത സംഘടനകളുടെ പ്രതിനിധികളും ഈ സംഗമത്തിനെത്തിയിരുന്നു. 

قصيدة لَسْتُ أَنْسَى الأحْبَابَ - -Lastu Ansal Ahbaba- English Translation

بَشِّرَنْ بالصَّلَاةِ طَهَ نَبِييًّا

وَارْفَعَنْ شَيْخَنَا وَلِيًّا رَضِيًّا

Bassyiran  biswalaati twaha nabiyya

Wa rfaa’n syaikhanaa waliyyan radiyya

Oh, Allah give glad tidings of salutations to the Prophet Twaha (Muhammad -swallallahu alaihi wasallam)

And raise our Shaikh as your close servant (waliyy) and pleased one

========================================================================

لَسْتُ أَنْسَى الأحْبَابَ مَا دُمْتُ حَيًّا

اِذْ بَنَوْا باِلنـَّوَى مَكَانًـا قَصِيّـًا 

lastu ansal ahbaba maa dumtu hayyan

Idh banau binnawa makaanan qaswiyyaa

I will not forget the loved ones as long as I am alive

If they have been held in love even at far  

وَتَلـَوْا آيـَةَ الـوِادَاعِ فَخَـرُّوا

خِيْفَـةَ الْبَيـْنِ سُجَّـدًا وَبُكِيـًّا

Wa talau aayatal widaai fakharroo

Kheefatal baini sujjadan wa bukiyyaa

  

When they crossed by signs of parting, they fell down

In sujood (prostration) and cried in fear of separation.

وَلِذِكْرَاهـم تَسِيـحُ دُمُـوعـِي

كُلَّمَـا اشْتَقـْتُ بُكـْرَةً وَعَشِيّـا 

Wa lidhikraahum taseehu dumooi’i

Kullama shtaqtu bukratan wa asyiyyaa

On their memory my tears are flowing   

Whenever I miss them down and dusk

وَأُناَجِي  الاِلَهَ مِنْ عِظَمِ شَوْقِي

كَمُنَاجَـاةِ (( عَبـْدَهُ )) زكَرِيّـَا

 Wa unaajil ilaaha min izami shauqee

Ka munaajaati a’bdahu zakariyyaa

I am conversing with God (Allah) due to my great love

as His servant zakariyya (a) had his conversation. 

وَاخْتَفَى نُورُهُمْ فَعُدْتُ اُنّادِي

فِي ظَلاَمِ الدُّجـَى نـِدَاءً خَفِيًّـا

Wakhtafaa nooruhum fau’dtu unaadii

Fii  zalaami ddujaa nidaa-an  khafiyyaa

When their light all went down then I returned invoking

(My Lord) secretly in the darkness of the night

وَهَنَ الْعَظْمُ باِلْفرَاقِ   فَهَـبْ لـِى

رَبِّي باِلْقُرْبِ مـِنْ لَدُنـْكَ وَليِّـا 

Wahanal azmu bilfiraaqi fahab lee

Rabbee bilqurbi min ladunka waliyyaa

                I am weakened on the pain of parting with loved ones .so, my Lord

Grant me the connection with you as an aid for me

يَاخَلِيْلَيَّ خَلِّيَـانـِي بِعِشْقِي

أَناَ أَوْلَى بِنَـارِ حُبِّي  صِلِيّـًا

 

Yaa khaleelayya   khalliyaanee bi ishqee

Ana aula binaari hubee swiliyyaa

Oh, my friends leave me in my love

I am the most worthy of burning in the fire of love

اَنَا فِي نَاظِرِي وَحُبِّي وَقَلْبِي

لَسْتُ اَدْرِي اَيُّهُمْ اَشَدُّ عِتِيًّا

Ana fee naaziree wa hubbee wa qalbee

Lastu adree ayyuhum ashaddu itiyyaa

Whether my eyes or my love or my heart

                                           

I am confused which is more extreme

 أنا شَيْخُ الْغَرَامِ مَنْ يَتْبَعُنـِي

أَهْدِهِ فِي الْوَرَى صِرَاطًا سَوِيًّا

Ana syaikhul garaami man yatbau’nee

Ahdihi fil wara swiraatan sawiyyaa 

I am saint of love, whoever follow me

 I will guide him from in the people towards the straight way.

وَأَنَا مَيْتُ الْهَوَى وَيَوْمَ أَرَاهُمْ

 ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ يَوْمَ أُبْعَـثُ حَيّـًا

Wa ana maitul hawaa wa yauma araahum

Dhaalikal yauma yauma uba’thu hayyaa

I am dead by passion.  I will see them on that day

When I would be resurrected

وَاسْتَجِبْ سَيِّدِي دُعَائِي لِأَنِّي

لَمْ أَكُنْ بِالدُّعَاءِ رَبِّي شَقِيَّا

Wastajib sayyidee dua’aaiee liannee

Lam akun bidduaai rabbee syaqiyya

Oh, my Master (Allah)! Please answer for my supplication because

I never failed in getting my Dua's answered in my  past

I never lost my supplications I the past (I was granted by you all)

Manqoos Maulid With English Translation and Transliteration, Manqoos Moulid,Manqus Mawlid

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Updated on 27/11/19

Maulid

The word “Maulid” in Arabic means “the place of birth or the time of birth” and it is used largely for “birth” also. Here, the word ‘Maulid’ refers to the biographical histories for the prophet (ﷺ), other prophets (alaihimussalam) and pious servants of Allah. Normally ‘Maulid’ is compiled in combination of the phrase and the poem.      

To remember the prophets (A) and the pious predecessors or to read and tell their stories is very recommended ’Ibadha (act of worship) in Islam.

It is unnecessary to stress the well-established importance of the need for remembering the Prophet (ﷺ) and explaining his stories.

Sending Swalat on the prophet (ﷺ) - praying Allah to send blessings upon him - is the core for Maulidunnabi (Swallallahu ‘Alaihi wa sallam)

There are many Maulids written on Rasulullah (ﷺ).

In worldwide, Maulid Dibae and Maulid Barzanji are the most popular Maulids on Rasulullah (ﷺ). Sharrafal Anam Maulid is also well-known. In Kerala, Manqus Maulid is mostly recited while Subhana Maulid is recited in some other states like Tamilnadu. In northern India and neighbouring countries of India, Urdu Lyrics (Na’at Shareef) are more popular.

Manqus  Maulid

It is composed by the Islamic Scholar from Malabar First Makhdoom - Sheikh Zainudden bin Ali bin Ahmad (A.D. 1467 to A.D. 1522 / Hijrah 871-Sha'ban 12 to Hijrah 928-Sha'ban 16) (Rahimahullahu).

(‘Makhdooms’ were the scholars from Ponnani (an area in Malabar, which was known as the ‘Makkah of Malabar’. They had the religious leadership of the Muslims in Malabar and surrounding areas of Kerala).

Hidayatul Adhkiya is another famous work for the author. It is a well-known book in Taswawwuf.

The Context

There were frequent fears of Plague, Smallpox and many natural calamities at the coastal areas of Malabar. So, the people approached Sheikh Maqdoom who was the top spiritual leader of Muslims in Malabar and expressed their grievances and worries.

Shaikh Makhdoom thought deeply about the matter and decided to compose a Moulid, following in the footsteps of former Muslim scholars. Some parts of this Maulid were extracted from other maulids (and shortened), while some themes were added by himself to cater to the problems of the Malabar region at that time.  Sheikh Maqdoom then asked everyone to read this Maulid at their houses and in all the Masjids.

This Maulid is known on the title of ‘Al-Maulidul Manqoos’ (The word “Manqus” in Arabic means ‘The Shortened’).

Since that time, this Maulid has been regularly recited by Muslims in Kerala and neighbouring places with great devotion, especially in the month of Rabee’ul Awwal, and also during special events and for special needs.

In different parts of the world, by Kerala Muslim communities as well as by many other groups also it has been recited with great enthusiasm.

May Allah Subhanahu Watha-ala grant Sheikh Maqdoom (R) His divine blessings and May Allah shower His blessings upon us, parents, teachers, families and all fellow brothers and sisters.

Except you when the biggest danger will descend upon the people	Oh, the noblest of all creations, I don’t have anybody (on the day of judgement) to approach for help (shafa-a’)

(At the time of horror on the day of judgement) when Allah the most generous will be characterized with the name of ‘revenger’	And O, the Messenger of Allah, my case will not be a big thing in front of your big status. (because your status is powerful to make intercession for all the sinners among the believers)

And many of the hidden knowledges recorded in the Lauhul Mahfooz with Al-Qalam has been revealed to your knowledge by Allah (SWT)

surely this world and the next world are from  your benevolence (This world never existed without you and in the next world you are the saviour of all by your shafa-a’) Nb:- In a hadith which is reported by Umar bin Al-Khattab (R) - on the subject of acceptance of the repentance from Adam (‘Alaihissalam) - when Adam (‘Alaihissalam) asked Allah forgiveness for him by the status of the prophet (ﷺ), Allah (SWT) pardoned him and said to him: If It were not for Muhammad (ﷺ), I would not have created you (Hakim & Baihaqi)

إِنَّ الْكَبَائِرَ فِي الْغُفْرَانِ كَاللَّمَمِ Innal kabaaira fil ghufrani kallamami	يَا نَفْسِ لاَ تَقْنَطِي مِنْ زَلَّةٍ عَظُمَتْ Yaa nafsi laa taqnatwii min zallatin adzumat
Verily major sins in front of Allah’s forgivness is just like minor sins (If Allah wills he will forgive all sins except the -associating partners with Allah)	Now the poet is talking to himself 'do not be disappointed from the mercy of Allah because of your large amount of sins

تَأْتِي عَلَى حَسَبِ الْعِصْيَانِ فِي الْقِسَمِ Ta-’tii ’alaa hasabil ’iswyani filqisami	لَعَلَّ رَحْمَةَ رَبِّي حِينَ يَقْسِمُهَا La’alla rahmata rabbee heena yaqsimuha
It would be coming on account of the sins for each in division	I hope that when Allah distributes His mercy

with you and make my evaluation perfect in results. (or it means please make my hope in your mercy realized)	O my Lord Allah,  please make my hope (in your mercy and forgiveness) not reversed but realized

a patience, which will run away when the horrors come	and be kind to your servant in both worlds because verily he has

to be showered abundantly on the prophet (ﷺ)	And Oh Allah, let your bessings to be always (Allah’s blessings upon the prophet (ﷺ) is exemplified with the clouds which showers rain on the earth)

As long as camel rider gives great entertainment to the camel with his good tunes (The camel is one of the basic elements  of the arabian culture)	(Oh Alah please send the blessings upon the prophet ﷺ) As long as the pleasant wind from the east shakes the branches of ben oil tree (this wind from the east and the ben tree was familiar among the Arabs)

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي أَطْلَعَ فِي شَهْرِ رَبِيعِ اْلأَوَّلِ قَمَرَ نَبِيِّ الْهُدَى وَأَوْجَدَ نُورَهُ قَبْلَ خَلْقِ الْعَالَمِ وَسَمَّاهُ مُحَمَّدًا Subhanalladhee atwl`a fi shahri Rabe’il awwali qamara nabiyyil huda, wa aujadha nurahu qabla khalqil ‘aalami wa smmahu Muhammada.

I glorify Allah (سبحانه وتعالى) the One who made the Moon to rise up, the prophet (ﷺ) who was sent as guidance to the people, during the month of Rabi’ul Awwal and He created prophet’s (ﷺ) light and named him as Muhammad (ﷺ) before the creation of the world.

وَأَخْرَجَهُ فِي آخِرِ الزَّمَانِ كَمَا قَدَّرَ وَأَبْدَى وَأَلْبَسَهُ خِلْعَةَ الْجَمَالِ الَّتِي لَمْ يُلْبِسْهَا أَحَدًا فَوُلِدَ بِوَجْهٍ أَخْجَلَ قَمَرًا وَفَرْقَدًا Wa akhrajahu fi aakhiri zzamani kama qaddhara wa abdha, wa albasahu khil’atal jamali llatee lam yulbisha ahadha. fa wulidha bi wajhin akhjala qamaran wa farqadha.

And He brought out him in the last era (as the last of all prophets) as He decided earlier and declared it in the Holy Scripts and then He (Allah) put on him with garments of beauty which were not put on anybody before him. Thus, He was born with a face which ashamed the moon and the Farqadh (The Star, situated in the northern part of the sky, often used by sailors during their navigation)

أَلاَ هُوَ الَّذِي تَوَسَّلَ بِهِ آدَمُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ وَافْتَخَرَ بِكَوْنِهِ وَالِدًا وَاسْتَغَاثَ بِهِ نُوحٌ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ فَنَجَى مِنَ الرَّدَى Ala huwalladzee tawassala bihi Aadamu ‘alahissalam waftakhara bi kaunihi walidan wastagatha bihi Nuhun ‘alaihissalam fa naja mina rrada

Yes, He (Muhammad) (ﷺ) is the one by whose status Adam (‘Alaihissalam) asked Allah, and Adam (‘Alaihissalam) was proud to be his father. And he is the one by whose baraka Nuh (‘Alaihissalam) sought help from Allah (During the flood) and thus he escaped from the destruction.

وَكَانَ فِي صُلْبِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ حِينَ أُلْقِيَ فِي النَّارِ فَعَادَ وَصَارَ لَهَـبُهَا مُخْمَدًا Wa kana fi swulbi Ibrahima ‘alaihissalam heena ulqiya finnari fa ‘aada wa swara lahabuha mukhmada.

He (Muhammad ﷺ) had been in the backbone of Hazrat Ibrahim ‘Alaihissalam while he was put into the fire and he was back from the fire (safely) as the flames of the fire were put off wondrously

وَرَأَتْ اُمُّهُ آمِنَةُ حِينَ حَمَلَتْ بِهِ مَلاَئِكَةَ السَّمَاءِ مَدَدًا وَدَخَل َعَلَيْهَا اْلأَنْبِيَاءُ وَهُمْ يَقُولُونَ لَهَا إِذَا وَضَعْتِ شَمْسَ اْلفَلاَحِ وَالْهُدَى فَسَمِّيهِ مُحَمَّدًا Wara-at ummuhu Aminatu (Radhiyallahu ‘Anha) heena hamalat bihi malaaikata ssamaai madada, wa dakhala ‘alaihal ambiyaau wahum yaqooloona laha idha wada’ti shamsal falahi wal huda fasammeehi Muhammada.

And when his mother Aminah (Radhiyallahu ‘anha) got  pregnant with the prophet (ﷺ), the angels of the Heaven came to help her, and the prophets (‘Alaihimussalam)  came to her saying ‘when you give birth to the (baby) ‘sun of victory and guidance’, please name him Muhammad (ﷺ).’

قَالَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَقَدْ جَاءَكُمْ رَسُولٌ مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ عَزِيزٌ عَلَيْهِ مَا عَنِتُّمْ حَرِيصٌ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ رَءُوفٌ رَّحِيمْ Qalallahu ‘azza wajalla  لَقَدْ جَاءَكُمْ رَسُولٌ مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ عَزِيزٌ عَلَيْهِ مَاعَنِتُّمْ حَرِيصٌ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ رَءُوفٌ رَّحِيمْ

Allah says: “There has certainly come to you a Messenger from among yourselves. Grievous to him is what you suffer; [he is] concerned over you and to the believers is kind and merciful.”

وَرُوِيَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ كُنْتُ نُورًا بَيْنَ يَدَيِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَخْلُقَ آدَمَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ بِأَلْفَيْ عَامٍ يُسَبِّحُ اللهَ ذَلِكَ النُّورُ وَتُسَبِّحُ الْمَلائِكَةُ بِتَسْبِيحِهِ Waruwiya ‘ani nnabiyyi swallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam annahu qala kuntu nuran baina yadayillahi ‘azza wajalla qabla an yakhlukha Adama ‘alaihi ssalam bi alfai ‘amin yusabbihullaha dhalika nnuru wa tusabbihul malaikatu bi tasbihihi.

And it is reported from the Prophet (ﷺ) (By Ibnu ‘Abbas (R) as recorded By Ibnu Asakir (R) and similar reports are narrated by Imam Twabrani and others) that the prophet (ﷺ) said, “I was a light in front of Allah (سبحانه وتعالى )  two thousand years before Adam ‘alaihissalam was created. This light had been glorifying Allah (سبحانه وتعالى) and angels also were glorifying Allah along with this Tasbeeh (glorifying) from this Nur”

فَلَمَّا خَلَقَ اللهُ تَعَالَى آدَمَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ أَلْقَى ذَلِكَ النُّورَ فِي طِينَتِهِ فَأَهْبَطَنِيَ اللهُ فِي صُلْبِ آدَمَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ إِلَى اْلأَرْضِ Falamma khalaqallahu ta`ala Adama ‘alaihissalam alqa dhalika nnura fi twinatihi fa ahbatwaniyallahu fi swulbi Adama ‘Alaihissalam ilal ardhi

When Allah (سبحانه وتعالى) created Adam ‘alaihissalam put that Nur in his clay then Allah sent down me to the earth through the backbone of Adam ‘alaihissalam.

وَجَعَلَنِي فِي السَّفِينَةِ فِي صُلْبِ نُوحٍ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ وَجَعَلَنِي فِي صُلْبِ الْخَلِيلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمْ حِينَ قُذِفَ بِهِ فِي النَّارِ Waja`lani fissafeenati fi swulbi Nuhin ‘alaihissalam waja`lani fi swulbil khalili Ibrahima ‘alaihissalm heena qudzifa bihi finnar.

And He placed me on the backbone of Nuh (‘alaihissalam) in the ship and put me in the backbone of Khaleelullahi Ibrahim (‘alaihissalam) when he was thrown to the fire.

وَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَنْقُلُنِي رَبِّي مِنَ اْلأَصْلاَبِ الْكَرِيمَةِ الْفَاخِرَةِ إِلَى اْلأَرْحَامِ الزَّكِيَّةِ الطَّاهِرَةِ حَتَّى أَخْرَجَنِيَ اللهُ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَبَوَيَّ وَلَمْ يَلْتَقِيَا عَلَى سِفَاحٍ قَطّ. Walam yazal yanquluni rabbi minal aswlabil karimatil fakhirati ilal arhami zzakiyyati twahirati hatta akhrajaniyallahu min baini abawayya walam yaltaqiya ‘ala swifahin qatt.

And thus, My Lord had been taking me through noble and delighted backbones - one by one -to the purified wombs. Allah (سبحانه وتعالى) brought out me from my parents very clean and pure in a sacred lineage [Note: All these events are seen reported in MUJMAUL KABEER for Imam Twabrani (4:213) and in MUSTADRAK (4:391) and in SEERATUL HALABIYYAH

اَلشَّفِيعِ الأَبْطَحِي وَالْحَبِيبِ الْعَرَبِي Asshafee‘il abtwahi wal habibil  ‘a- rabi	اَلصَّلَوةُ عَلَى النَّبِي وَالسَّلاَمُ عَلَى الرَّسُولْ Asswalatu ‘alannabi wassalamu ‘alarrasul
The intercessor (of the believers), the native of Makkah, the beloved of Allah, and the Arabian (all are among the names of the prophet (ﷺ) Nb: - (‘Abtah’ means basin - shaped valley like Makkah.  Makkah is referred by this word.	Blessings from Allah be upon the Prophet (ﷺ), and peace be on the Messenger (ﷺ)

بَلْ وَأَشْرَفُ مِنْهُ يَا سَيِّدِي خَيْرَ النَّبِي Bal wa ashrafu minhu ya sayyidi khairannabi	أَنْتَ تَطْلُعُ بَيْنَنَا فِي الْكَوَاكِبِ كَالْبُدُورِ Anta tatwlu’ bainana fil kawakibi kal budoor
Nay, you are superior to that, oh my leader, the best of all prophets (ﷺ)	You are shining amidst us like the full moon shines amidst the stars.

مِثْلَ حُسْنِكَ قَطُّ يَا سَيِّدِي خَيْرَ النَّبِي Mithla husnika qattu ya sayyidee khairannabi	أَنْتَ أُمٌّ أَمْ أَبٌ مَا رَأَيْنَا فِيهِمَا Anta ummun am abun ma raaina feehima
Like your beauty, indeed, Oh my master, the best of prophets (ﷺ).	You are mother, or you are father? (you are above all). We didn’t see in them i.e. father and mother

مَنْ لَنَا مِثْلُكَ يَا سَيِّدِي خَيْرَ النَّبِي Man lana mithluka ya sayyidi khairannabi	أَنْتَ مُنْجِينَا غَدًا مِنْ شَفَاعَتِكَ الصَّفَا Anta munjeena ghadan min shafa`tika sswafa
Who is there for us like you, Oh my master, the best of all prophets (ﷺ)	You are our saviour tomorrow, by your sacred shafa-a (intercession).

لَكَ أَشْكُو فِيهِ يَا سَيِّدِي خَيْرَ النَّبِي Laka ashku fihi ya sayyidi khairannabi	اِرْتَكَبْتُ عَلَى الْخَطَا غَيْرَ حَصْرٍ وَعَدَدْ Irtakabtu ‘alal khata ghaira haswrin wa ‘adhad
I express my helplessness and I am worried about how I face Allah. So, please help me by your shafa-a), oh my leader the best of all prophets (ﷺ).	I have committed countless sins.

يَوْمَ نَشْرِ كِتَابِي يَا سَيِّدِي خَيْرَ النَّبِي Yauma nashri kitabi ya sayyidi khairannabi	إِنَّنَا نَرْجُو إِلَى كَأْسِ حَوْضِكَ لِلْعَطَشْ Innana narju ila ka`si haudhlika lil ’atwash
The day when we take records of our deeds (in our hands) oh the best of all prophets (ﷺ).	We aspire towards your cup of Haudhul kauthar to get rid of our thirst. (Note: ‘Kauthar’ is a special river which is gifted to Rasulullah (swallahu ‘alaihi wasallam). It is whiter than milk and sweeter than honey. Whoever drinks it once he will never get thirst. May Allah bless all of us to drink it)

وَاهْ لَناَ إِنْ ضَاعَ يَا سَيِّدِي خَيْرَ النَّبِي Wah lana in dha’a ya sayyidee khairannabi	اَلشَّفَاَعَةَ هَبْ لَنَا فِى الْقِيَامَةِ مُشْفِقَا Asshafa ’a`ta hab lana fil qiyamati mushfiqa
Woe to us ! (What a bad situation will be) if we do not receive it (shafa’a), Oh my leader, the best of prophets (ﷺ).	Please grant us ‘Shafa-a’ on the day of judgment, showing affection towards us

لاَحَ نَجْمٌ فِي السَّمَا سَيِّدِي خَيْرَ النَّبِي Laha najmun fi ssama sayyidi khairannabi	اَلصَّلَوةُ عَلَى النَّبِي كُلَّ وَقْتٍ دَائِمَا Asswalatu ’alannabi kulla waqtin daima
For as long as the stars shine in the sky, Oh my leader, the best of prophets (ﷺ).	May the blessings of Allah be upon the prophet (ﷺ) always, all the time.

رَوَى كَعْبُ اْلأَحْبَارِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ لَمَّا أَرَادَ اللهُ تَعَالَى إِظْهَارَ النُّورِ الْمَخْزُونِ وَإِبْرَازَ الْجَوْهَرِ الْمَكْنُونِ مِنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ إِلَى بَطْنِ آمِنَةَ Rawa Ka’bul Ahbari radiyallahu ‘anhu lamma aradallahu ta`la izhhara nnuril makhzuni wa ibrazal jauharil maknuni min ‘abdillahi ila batwni Aminata (Radhiyallahu ‘Anha)

Ka`bul Ahbar radhiallahu anhu reports: (Note: He was a Tabie, (one of those who succeeded the Companions of Rasulullah (swahaba) and also one of the historians in the first Islamic century who learned more about the Testaments. He embraced Islam during the reign of the Caliph Umauru bnul Khattab (Radhiyallahu Anhu). He passed away in 32 H.) When Allah سبحانه وتعالى) wanted to reveal the Nur that was kept with great care and to bring out the hidden pearl from Abdullah (Radhiyallahu ‘Anhu) to the womb of Amina (Radhiyallahu ‘Anha)

أَطْهَرِ فَتَاةٍ فِي الْعَرَبِ وَذَلِكَ فِي لَيْلَةِ الْجُمُعَةِ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَجَبٍ أَمَرَ رِضْوَانَ عليه السلام Atwhari fatatin fil ‘arabi wa dhalika fi lailatil jumu’ati min shahri rajabin amara Ridwana alaihi ssalam

the purest lady amongst the Arabs, it was on a Friday night in the month of Rajab, Allah (سبحانه وتعالى) commanded Ridhwan (the Angel who is the Guard of Paradise)

فَفُتِحَتْ أَبْوَابُ الْجِنَانِ وَتَزَيَّنَتِ الْحُورُ وَالْوِلْدَانُ وَدُقَّتْ بَشَائِرُ اْلأَفْرَاحِ وَزَهَرَتْ كَوَاكِبُ الصَّبَاحِ Fafutihat abwabul jinani wa tazayyanatil huru wal wildanu waduqhat bashaairul afrahi wa zaharat kawakibu sswabahi

then the doors of paradise were opened. Hurs and Al-Wildnu-l- Mukhalladoon were adorned in the beauty and bells announcing the good news were tuned and morning stars started to shine. N;b-  Hurs are the heavenly girls with large eye and Al-Wildnu-l- Mukhalladoon are the handsome boys in the paradise who will be welcoming the believers in to the paradise. According to some scholars, they are special creations of Allah for the paradise and according to some, they are the children who were deceased before getting their period of puberty .We can see in many hadiths that these children will be waiting for their parents at the doors of paradise and they will request to Allah to send their parents with them and even it is reported that they would pull their parents into the paradise.)

وَنَادَى مُنَادٍ فِي السَّمَاءِ وَاْلأَرْضِ أَلاَ إِنَّ النُّورَ الْمَكْنُونَ مِنْهُ سَيِّدُ الْبَشَرِ فِي بَطْنِ آمِنَةَ قَدِ اسْتَقَرَّ Wa naada munadin fissama-i wal ardhi ala innannural maknoona minhu sayyidul bashari fi batwni Aminata (Radhiyallahu ‘Anha) qadistaqarra

And one caller from Allah, announced in the heavens and earth “Yes, indeed the Nur (the light) in which the leader of mankind (ﷺ) is shielded has been placed in the belly/womb of Amina (Radhiyallahu ‘Anha).”

وَلَمَّا انْتَقَلَ نُورُ نَبِيِّنَا مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمْ مِنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ إِلَى بَطْنِ آمِنَةَ اِهْتَزَّ الْعَرْشُ طَرَبًا وَاسْتِبْشَارًا Walammantaqala nuru nabiyyina Muhammadin swallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam min ‘Abdillahi ila batwni Amina (Radhiyallahu ‘Anha) ihtazzal ‘arshu twaraban wastibsharan

When this Nur of prophet muhammad (ﷺ) moved from Abdullah to the womb of Amina (Radhiyallahu ‘Anha), the ‘Arsh’ (a special creation of Allah which remarks His greatness) trembled with joy and pleasure.

وَزَادَ الْكُرْسِيُّ هَيْبَةً وَوَقَارًا وَامْتَلَئَتِ السَّمَاوَاتُ أَنْوَارًا وَضَجَّتِ الْمَلاَئِكَةُ تَهْلِيلاً وَاسْتِغْفَارَا Wazadal kursiyyu haibatan wa waqaran wamtalatissamawatu anwaran wa dhajjatil malaikatu tahleelan wastighfaran.

And Kursiyy (special creation of Allah which is bigger than earth and heavens) increased in awe and dignity. The Heavens were filled with the special lights (Nur), and angels were reciting loudly Tahlil (La ilaha Illallah Muahammadu Rasulullah) and Istighfar (asking forgiveness from Allah)

فَأَصْبَحَتْ آمِنَةُ فِي تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةِ وَاْلأَنْوَارُ تَلُوحُ فِي جَبْهَتِهَا الْمُؤْتَمِنَة Fa aswbahat Aaminatu (R) fi tilka llailati wal anwaru taloohu fi jabhatihal mu`taminati

special lights were shining in the confident forehead of Amina (Radhiyallahu ‘Anha) throughout the night

وَأَمِنَتْ بِهِ مِنَ الْمَخَاوِفِ الْكَامِنَةِ وَظَهَرَتْ لِانْتِقَالِ نُورِهِ اْلآيَاتُ وَتَبَاشَرَتْ بِهِ جَمِيعُ الْمَخْلُوقَاتِ Wa aminat bihi minal makhawifil kaaminati wazhaharat lintiqali nurihil ayaatu wa tabasharat bihi jamee’ul makhluqati

She had no any fear of hidden dangers on him. The signs for the moving of his sacred ‘Nur’ were appeared and all creatures passed good news of him each other.

وَلَمَّا حَمَلَتْ بِهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمْ فِي رَجَبِ الْهَنَا بُشِّرَتْ فِي شَعْبَانَ بِنَيْلِ الْمُنَى وَقِيلَ لَهَا فِي رَمَضَانَ لَقَدْ حَمَلْتِ باِلْمُطَهَّرِ مِنَ الدَّنَسِ وَالْخَنَا Walamma hamalat bihi swallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam fi rajabil hana busshirat fi sha`bana bi nailil muna wa qeela laha fi ramadana laqad hamalti bil mutwhhari minaddanasi wal khana.

When she became pregnant with Prophet (ﷺ), in the delightful month of Rajab, she was given the glad in the month of Sha’ban that her wishes were going to be fulfilled and she was told in the Ramadan, that she had got pregnant with a child who was completely purified from dirt and impurities

وَسَمِعَتِ الْمَلَائِكَةَ فِي شَوَّالٍ يُبَشِّرُونَهَا بِالظَّفْرِ بِغَايَةِ الْمُنَا Wa sami ‘atil malaikata fi shawwalin yubasshirunaha bizzhafri bi ghayatil muna.

She heard the Angels in Shawwal giving her good news of winning her ultimate wish

وَرَأَتِ الْخَلِيلَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ فِي ذِى الْقَعْدَةِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ لَهَا أَبْشِرِي بِصَاحِبِ اْلأَنْوَارِ وَالْوَقاَرِ وَالسَّنَا Wara atil khalila Ibrahima ‘alaihissalam fi dzilqadati wahuwa yaqoolu laha abshiree biswahibil anwari wal waqari wassana.

She saw Hazrat Ibrahim alaihissalam in the month of Dhulqadah, saying to her, “be pleased to be blessed with the man (ﷺ) of lights, dignity and high status”

وَأَتَاهَا فِي ذِي الْحِجَّةِ مُوسَى الْكَلِيمُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ وَأَعْلَمَهَا بِرُتْبَةِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَجَاهِهِ اْلأَسْنَى Wa ataha fi dzil hijjati Musal kalimu ‘alaihissalam wa a`lamaha bi rutbati Muhammadin swallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam wa jahihil asna.

Hazrat Musa ‘alaihissalam came to her in Dhulhijjah and informed her about the status of the Prophet (ﷺ) and his high rank

وَنَادَاهَا فِي مُحَرَّمٍ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ بِأَنَّ وَقْتَ وِلاَدَتِهَا قَد دَّنَا وَاصْطَفَّتِ الْمَلاَئِكَةُ مَنْزِلَهَا فِي صَفَرٍ Wa nadaha fi muharramin Jibrilu ‘alaihissalam bi anna waqta wiladatiha qaddana,wastwaffatil malaikatu manzilaha fi swafarin

Jibril ‘alaihissalam called her in Muharram telling her that the time for her delivery was very near. Angels lined up in her house in the month of Safar.

فَعَلِمَتْ أَنَّ مَوْعِدَ السُّرُورِ قَدْ قَرُبَ وَدَنَا فَلَمَّا هَلَّ رَبِيعُ اْلأَوَّلِ أَضَائَتِ اْلأَرْضُ وَالسَّمَا وَأَشْرَقَتِ الْبَيْتُ وَالصَّفَا Fa ’alimat anna mau’ida ssururi qad qaruba wa dana. falamma halla rabi’ul awwali adha-atil ardhu wassama wa ashraqatil baitu wasswafa.

Then she knew that the time of happiness has come very near. When the month of Rabiulawwal began; the earth and sky were shining in brightness, and the Holy Ka’aba and Swafa Mountain were illuminating

ثُمَّ لَمَّا جَاءَ وَقْتُ الْوِلاَدَةِ وَخَرَجَ مَنْشُورُ السَّعَادَةِ وَجَدَّ بِآمِنَةَ أَمْرُ الْوِلآدَةِ Thumma lamma ja-a waqtul wiladati wa kharaja manshuru ssa`ada wa jaddha bi aminata (R) amrul wilada

And when the time of delivery came, the proclamation of success was out, the signs of delivery were getting strong in Amina (Radhiyallahu ‘Anha)

وَحَانَ بُرُوزُ شَمْسِ السَّعَادَةِ تَلَأْلَأَ الْحَقُّ نُورًا أَضَاءَ وَنُشِرَتْ لَهُ فِي الْكَوْنِ أَعْلاَمُ الرِّضَى Wa hana buruzu shamsi ssa`dati tala-la al haqu nuran adha-a wanushirat lahu fil kauni a`lamurridha

And the “sun of victory” was going to rise, the (light of) truth illuminated spreading light very far and the flags of appreciation were spread all over the universe

وَ إِذَا بِطَائِرٍ أَبْيَضَ قَد سَّقَطَ مِنَ الْهَوَى فَمَرَّ بِجَنَاحَيْهِ عَلَى بَطْنِ آمِنَةَ مُسْرِعًا فَضَرَبَهَا الْمَخَاضُ لَيْلَةَ الِاثْنَيْنِ الثَّانِي عَشَرَ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَبِيعِ اْلأَوَّلِ وَوَلَدَتْ صَبِيحَتَهَا نَبِيَّ الثَّقَلَيْنِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَعَلَى آلِهِ وَصَحْبِهِ أَجْمَعِينْ Wa idha bi twa-irin Abyadha qa ssaqatwa minal hawa fa marra bi janahaiyhi ‘ala batwhni aminta (Radhiyallahu ‘anha) musri’an fadharabahal makhadhu lailatalithnaini thani ‘ashara min shahri Rabi’l awwali wa waladat swabihataha nabiyyathaqalaini swallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam wa ‘ala aalihi wa swahbihi ajma’ien.

Suddently a white bird flew down and passed over the belly of Amina (Radhiyallahu ‘Anha) speedily stretching its wings. Then (as stated in Nurul Abswar-by Imam Suyuti Rahimahillahu) she began to feel labour pains on the eve of 12th Rabiul awwal and in the morning (of 12th Rabiul awwal), she gave birth to the prophet of mankind and the jinn. May Allah send his blessings upon him, and all of his family and companions.

وَرُوِيَ أَنَّ آمِنَةَ رَأَتْ حِينَ وَضَعَتْهُ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نُورًا أَضَاءَ لَهُ قُصُورُ بُصْرَى مِنْ أَرْضِ الشَّامِ Waruwiya anna Aminata (Radhiyallahu ‘Anha) Ra-at heena wadha’thu swallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam nuran adha-a lahu qusuru buswra min ardhi ssham.
It was reported that when the Prophet (ﷺ) was given birth, Amina (Radhiyallahu ‘Anha) saw a very bright light, through which she could  watch the castles of Bosra (a town in Southern Syria) in  the region of ‘Sham’ (‘sham’ includes the areas of Syria, Jordan, Palestine and Lebanon reaching to the  borders of Saudi Arabia)
وَ رُوِيَ أَنَّ آمِنَةَ قَالَتْ لَمَّا وَضَعْتُهُ مَدَدْتُ عَيْنِي لِأَنْظُرَ وَلَدِي فَلَمْ أَرَهُ ثُمَّ وَجَدْتُهُ فِي الْمِخْدَعِ وَهُوَ مَكْحُولٌ مَدْهُونٌ مَخْتُونٌ مَلْفُوفٌ بِثَوْبٍ مِنَ الصُّوفِ اْلأَبْيَضِ أَلْيَنَ مِنَ الْحَرِيرِ يَفُوحُ الطِّيبُ مِنْ جَنَابِهِ Waruwiya anna Aminata (Radhiyallahu ‘Anha) qalat, lamma wadha`tuhu madadtu ‘aini li anzhura waladi falam arahu thumma wajatuhu fil mikhda’i wahuwa makhoolun madhoonun makhtoonun malfoofun bi thoubimminasswoofil abyadhi alyana minal hareeri yafoohu ttweebu min janabihi
And It is reported that Amina (Radhiyallahu ‘Anha) said: “When I gave birth to Rasulullah (ﷺ), I eagerly looked to see my baby but I could not see him. Then after a while I found him in the bedchamber and he was with Kohl on his eyes, covered with oil, circumcised and wrapped in a white cotton cloth which was softer than silk and a nice fragrance was spreading from his side

فَجَعَلْتُ أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ وَإِذَا مُنَادٍ يُنَادِي أَخْفُوهُ عَنْ أَعْيُنِ النَّاسِ قَالَتْ فَمَا كَانَ غَيْبَتُهُ وَحُضُورُهُ إِلاَّ  كَلَمْحِ الْبَصَرِ Faja’altu anzhuru ilaihi vaidza munadin yunadi akhfoohu ‘an a`yuni nnasi, qalat fama kana ghaibatuhu wa hudhuruhu illa ka lamhil baswari

I kept looking on him. Suddenly, a caller was calling out please hide him from the eyes of the people. Amina (radhiyallahu anha says: suddenly, the baby disappeared from my eyes and soon he was found in front of me. All it happened in the blink of an eye

وَلَمَّا كُنْتُ مُتَحَيِّرَةً مِنْ ذَلِكَ إِذَا بِثَلاَثَةِ نَفَرٍ قَد دَّخَلُوا عَلَيَّ كَأَنَّ وُجُوهَهُمْ أَقْمَارٌ وَفيِ يَدِ أَحَدِهِمْ إِبْرِيقٌ مِنَ الْفِضَّةِ وَمَعَ اْلآخَرِ طَشْتٌ مِنَ الزَّبَرْجَدِ اْلأَخْضَرِ وَفِي يَدِ الثَّالِثِ حَرِيرَةٌ بَيْضَاءُ مَطْوِيَّةٌ فَنَشَرَهَا فَإِذَا هِيَ خَاتَمٌ يُحَيِّرُ أَعْيُنَ النَّاظِرِينَ مِنْ شِدَّةِ  نُورِهِ Walamma kuntu mutahayyiratan min dzalika idza bi thalathati nafarin qddakhalu ‘alayya, ka-anna wujuhahum aqmarun wa fi yadi ahadihim ibriqun minal fidhati wa ma`l aakhari twashtun minazzabarjadil akhdhari wafi yadi thalithi hariratun baidhau matwiyyatun fa nasharaha fa idha hiya khatamun yuhayyiru a`yuna nnazhireena min shiddati nurihi.

While I was very surprised by this, a group of three came to me, their faces were looking like the moon. There was a silver jug in one’s hand, and a washbowl of green aquamarine with another one, and there was folded white silk in the third one’s hand.  he spread it. Then There was a seal (referring to the end of the chain of prophets and messengers (Alaihimussalam) with prophet Muhammad (swallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) astonishing the sights of viewers, by its brightness. Note: It was predicted in Tourat and Injiel, that the Prophet (ﷺ) would be born with this seal. So, many of the scholars of these two books, embraced Islam, seeing this seal and other signs mentioned in their books.

حَمَلَ ابْنِي وَنَاوَلَهُ لِصَاحِبِ الطَّشْتِ وَأَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ فَغَسَلَهُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْمَاءِ الَّذِي فِي اْلإِبْرِيقِ سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِصَاحِبِهِ اخْتِمْ بَيْنَ كَتِفَيهِ بِخَاتَمِ النُّبُوَّةِ فَهُوَ خَاتِمُ النَّبِيِّينْ وَسَيِّدُ أَهْلِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَاْلأَرْضِ أَجْمَعِينْ Hamalabnee wanawalahu li swahibi twashti wa ana anzhuru ilaihi fa ghasalahu min dzalikal maa-i lladzee fil ibriqi sab’a marratin thumma qala li swahibihikhtim baina katifaihi bi khataminnubuwwati fahuwa khatimunnabiyyeena wasayyidu ahlissamawati wal ardhi ajma’ien.

He carried my son and passed my son to the holder of washbowl while I was looking to him, then he washed him seven times using the water in the jug. Then he told his colleague: seal in between his two shoulders the seal of Khatamunnubuwwah (i.e. the sign of the last prophethood), because he is the last of all prophets and the leader of all those in the heavens and in the earth.

وَقِيلَ لَمَّا وُلِدَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَمَدَت تِّلْكَ اللَّيْلةَ نَارُ فَارِسَ بَعْدَ الضِّرَامِ وَلَمْ تَكُنْ خَمَدَتْ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ بِأَلْفَيْ عَامٍ Wa qeela lamma wulida swallallahu ‘alaihiwasallam khamada tilka llailata naru farisa ba`da dhliram, walam takun khamadat qabla dhalika bi alfai ‘aam.

It is reported, that the fire of Persia became extinguished in the night of the birth of the Prophet (ﷺ) after it had been burning for several years and this fire had never been extinguished for two thousand years preceding that day.

وَارْتَجَّ إِيوَانُ كِسْرَى وَسَقَطَتْ مِنْهُ أَرْبَعَ عَشَرَ شُرْفَةً وَغَاضَتْ بُحَيْرَةُ سَاوَةَ وَأَصْبَحَتْ أَصْنَامُ الدُّنْيَا كُلُّهَا مَنْكُوسَةً وَرُمِيَتِ الشَّيَاطِينُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ بِالشُّهُبِ الثَّوَاقِبِ وَانْبَلَجَ صُبْحُ الْحَقِّ وَبَطَلَ مَا كَانَ يَعْمَلُهُ كُلُّ كَاذِبٍ Wartajja eewanu kisra wasaqatwat minhu arba` ‘ashara shurfatan wa ghadzat buhairatu sawata wa-aswbahat aswnamuddhunya kulluha mankusatan wa rumiyati sshayatweenu minassamaai bi sshuhubi thawaqibi wambalaja swubhul haqqi wa batwla ma kana ya`maluhu kullu kadhib.

The palace of Kisra trembled, fourteen of its terraces fell down, the Pond of Sawa (town in old Persia currently Iran) dried up, all idols in the world were inverted, Satans were thrown from the doors of heavens by sharpened flame sticks, and the dawn of truth was exposed to all. And All the false practices were proved to be not relevant

وَرُوِيَ عَنْ يَحْيَي بْنِ عُرْوَةَ (رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ) أَنَّ نَفَرًا مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ كَانُوا عِنْدَ صَنَمٍ مِنْ أَصْنَامِهِمْ قَدِ اتَّخَذُوا ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ عِيدًا مِنْ أَيَّامِهِمْ يَنْحَرُونَ فِيهِ الْجَزُورَ وَيَأْكُلُونَ وَيَشْرَبُونَ وَقَدْ عَكَفُوا عَلَيْهِ يَخُوضُونَ وَيَلْعَبُونَ Wa ruwiya ‘an Yahya bni ‘Urwata (R) anna nafaran min quraishin kaanoo ‘inda swanamin min aswnamihim qadittakhdzoo dzalikal yauma ‘iedan min ayyamihim yanharuna feehil jazoora  wa ya-kuluna wa yashrabuna waqad ‘akafoo ‘alaihi ykhudhoona wa yal ’aboon

It was reported by Yahya bin ‘Urwa (Grandson of Zubair bin Awwam) that a group of Quraish were sitting with an idol for them, celebrating one of their Festivals, slaughtering the camels, eating and drinking and they were fully dedicated in playing and enjoying on it.

فَدَخَلُوا عَلَيْهِ فَوَجَدُوهُ مَكْبُوبًا عَلَى وَجْهِهِ فَأَنْكَرُوا عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِ وَرَدُّوهُ إِلَى حَالِهِ فَانْقَلَبَ انْقِلاَبَ صَاغِرٍ فَفَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ ثَلاَثًا وَهُوَ لاَيَسْتَقِيمُ Fadakhaloo ‘alaihi fawajadoohu makbooban ‘ala wajhihi fa ankaroo ‘inda dzalika ‘alaihi wa raddoohu ila halihi fanqalabanqilaaba swaghirin fafa`aloo dzalika thalathan wahuwa la yastaqeemu

When they entered into its presence, they found it fallen on its face. It was unbelievable for them. They re-established it as it was before. but it again turned down like someone falls humiliated. they did it three times, but it was not getting straight.

فَلَمَّا رَأَوْا ذَلِكَ أَبْدَوْا حُزْنًا وَتَأَلُّمًا وَأَصْبَحَ الْعِيدُ الَّذِي كَانُوا فِيهِ مَأْتَمًا فَقَالَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ الْحُوَيْرِثِ مَا لَهُ قَدْ أَكْثَرَ التَّنَكُّسَ إِنَّ هَذَا لِأَمْرٍ حَدَثَ وَأَنْشَدَ وَقَلْبُهُ يَصْلَى بِالنَّارِ Falamma ra-au dzalika abdau huznan wa ta-alluman wa aswbahal ‘iedulladzee kaanoo feehi ma`tama fa qala Uthmanu bnul Huwairithi ma lahu qad akthara tanakkusa inna hadza li amrin hadatha wa anshada wa qalbuhu yaswla binnar.

when they saw all what happened, they exposed their sadness and sorrows, and celebration became mourning, then ‘Uthman bn ul Huwarith (their leader) said: what happened to this idol. Many times, it keeps falling down! Surely, this is because of an incident just happened, and he began to sing, while his heart was burning with anger.

And the Persian king spent whole the night in extreme difficulties.	The fire for Persians (the Persians were worshipping fire) was extinguished because of him.

After having their meal, they asked Abdul Muttalib: What name you have given for your son (grandson). He replied, “I have named him ‘Muhammad’. They told him, “you have disapproved the names of your forefathers?” He said, “I wanted that all on the earth would praise him.

When it was the time for the appearance of his secrets and lightening of the universe with his lights, Amina (Radhiyallahu ‘Anha) was alone paying attentions to his blessings and nobody was there. She didn`t feel anything except that there was a light shining in her house, she was fully caught by the pleasure and happiness, and Angels and Hur E`en (unique beautiful girls from heaven with large eyes) came there, different types of birds surrounded her room, she heard their rushing and celebration on the coming of the prophet (ﷺ). How could this not be the case as the leader of the entire world (ﷺ) had been born in the house of Amina (Radhiyallahu Anha).

Aliyyu bin Zaid (may Allah (سبحانه وتعالى) grant him His mercy) said: ------------- (Note: Aliyyu bin Zaid (R) (Died in 131 H) was one of the scholars among Tabi’een (Tabi’een are the Generation who were preceded by the generation of prophet (ﷺ)’s companions(‘Swahaba’) --------------------- “There was a Dzimmy (a non-Muslim who stays with full protection in an Islamic republic) staying beside me. I used to invite poor people in the month of Rabeeul awwal and celebrate the birthday of the Prophet swallallahu alaihi wasallam. He asked me, ‘why do you do this in this month and and not in others?’. I said, “Because of my happiness on the birth of the Messenger (ﷺ), as he was born in this month.” Then he (the Dzimmy) began to laugh at me and I was very hurt.

فَلَمَّا نِمْتُ فِي تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةِ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْمَنَامِ فَقَالَ مَابِكَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِخَبَرِي مَعَ الذِّمِّيِّ فَقَالَ لاَ تَحْزَنْ فَإِنَّهُ يَأْتِي إِلَيْكَ غَدًا وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ Fa lamma nimtu fi tilka llailati ra-aitu rasulallahi swallallahu alaihi wasallam fil manami fa qala ma bika, fa akhbartuhu bi khabaree ma’a dzimmiyyi fa qala la tahzan fa innahu ya-tee ilayka ghadan wahuwa muminun.
When I fell asleep in that night, I had a vision of the holy Prophet (ﷺ) in the dream.  He asked me, “any problem?”. I explained to him (ﷺ) my experience with the ‘Dzimmiy’. Then He told me, “Do not worry, he will come tomorrow to you as a believer.”
قَالَ فَاسْتَيْقَظْتُ وَقَدْ تَزَايَدَ وَجْدِي وَأَنَا أَنْتَظِرُ إِنْجَازَ وَعْدِي وَسُحْبُ الْمَدَامِعِ قَدْ جَرَتْ عَلَى خَدِّي وَإِذَا بِالْبَابِ يُطْرَقُ وَالذّمِّيُّ يَقُولُ اِفْتَحْ فَقَدْ زَالَ صَدَا قَلْبِي إِنْ كَانَ الْحَبِيبُ قَدْ كَانَ عِنْدَكَ فَالْباَرِحَةَ قَدْ كَانَ عِنْدِي Qala fastayqazhtu waqattazayada wajdee wa ana antazhiru injaza wa’dee wa suhbul madami’i qad jarat ala khadhee wa idza bil babi yutwraqu wadzimmiyyu yaqulu iftah faqad zala swada qalbee in kanal habibu qad kana ‘indaka fal barihata qad kana ‘indee.
He (Aliyyubnu zaid (R) said, “then I woke up and my eagerness was increasing, as I had been waiting for fulfilment of the promise of Rasulullah (ﷺ) to me, and there were tears flowing down through my cheeks”. Here is someone knocking at the door! The Dzimmy was there -saying, “Please open the door, stains in my heart have been removed, if the Prophet (ﷺ) was with you once, he was with me last night!”

قَالَ فَفَتَحْتُ لَهُ الْبَابَ فَدَخَلَ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ لاَإِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللهُ مُحمَّدٌ رَّسُولُ اللهِ فَقُلْتُ مَا شَأْنُكَ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ اللَّيْلَةَ رَجُلا ًحَسَنَ الْوَجْهِ طَيِّبَ الرَّائِحَة ِعَظِيمَ الْهَيْبَةِ أَزَجَّ الْحَاجِبَيْنِ سَهْلَ الخَدَّيْنِ إِذَا تَكَلَّمَ فَعَلَيْهِ الْبَهَاءُ وَإِذَا صَمَتَ فَعَلَيْهِ الْوَقَارُ حُلْوُ الْمَنْطِقِ إِذَا طَلَعَ تَقُولُ هَذَا الْبَدْرُ الْمُنِيرُ وَإِذَا مَشَى يَفُوحُ مِنْهُ الْمِسْكُ وَالْعَنْبَرُ مَا أَحْسَنَ وَجْهَهُ وَمَا أَطْيَبَ رَائِحَتَهُ فَأَرَدْتُّ أَنْ أُقَبِّلَ يَدَيْهِ قَالَ أَتُقَبِّلُ يَدِي وَأَنْتَ عَلَى غَيْرِ دِينِي Qala – Fa fatahtu lahul baba fadakhala wahuwa yaqulu – La ilaha illallahu muhammadurrasulullahi - faqultu ma sha-nuka qala ra - aytu llailata rajulan hasanal wajhi twayyiba rra-ihati ‘azheemal haibati azajjal hajibaini sahlal khaddaini idza takallama fa ‘alaihil bahau wa idza swamata fa ‘alaihil waqaru hulwul mantwiqi idza twla` taqoolu hadzal badrul muneeru wa idza masha yafuhu minhul misku wal ‘anbaru ma ahsana wajhahu wa ma atwyaba ra-ihatahu fa aradtu an uqabbila yadaihi qala atuqabbilu yadee wa anta ‘ala ghairi deenee.

He (‘Aliyyubnu Zaid) said: I opened the door for him. He entered uttering La ilahaha Illallahu Muhammadu Rasulullah (ﷺ) (there is no God but Allah and Muhammad (ﷺ) is His Messenger). I asked, “What happened to you?” He replied “I saw last night a man with a handsome face, who smelt very nice, bearing a reverential countenance, with long slim eyebrows, and with good shaped cheeks. When he spoke, his face shone and when he was silent, he looked very magnificent. He speaks in very sweet manner. When he appears you would say, “This is the shining full moon.” When he walks, the smell of musk and ambergris: a fragrance) emanated from him. Oh, what a beautiful face it was! What a nice smell it was! Then I wanted to kiss his hands. He (ﷺ) asked me, “you kiss my hands while you are not in my religion?”

فَقُلْتُ مَنْ أَنْتَ الَّذِي مَنَّ اللهُ عَلَيَّ بِكَ قَالَ أَنَا الَّذِي أُرْسِلْتُ رَحْمَةً لِلْعَالَمِينْ أَناَ سَيِّدُ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَالْآخِرِينْ أَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ خَاتِمُ النَّبِيِّينَ وَرَسُولُ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينْ فَقُلْتُ لاَ إِلَهَ إلاَّ اللهُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَّسُولُ اللهِ فَفَتَحَ يَدَيْهِ وَعَانَقَنِي ثُمَّ قَالَ هَذِهِ الْجَنَّةُ وَذَاكَ الْقَصْرُ لَكَ فَقُلْتُ مَا عَلاَمَةُ ذَلِكَ قَالَ أَنْ تَمُوتَ غَدًا قَالَ صَاحِبُ الْحِكَايَةِ فَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ يُحَدِّثُنِي وَإِذَا بِالْبَابِ يُطْرَقُ وَقَائِلٌ يَقُولْ Fa qultu man anta lladzee mannallahu ‘alayya bika? qala analladzee ursiltu rahmatan lil ‘aalamin, ana sayyidhul awwaleena wal aakhireena ana Muhammadun khatimunnabiyyeena wa rasulu rabbil ‘aalameen. fa qultu - la ilaha illallahu muhammadurrasulullahi - fa fataha yadaihi wa `aanaqanee thumma qala hahzihil jannatu wa dzakal qaswru laka fa qultu ma ‘alaamatu dzalika, qala an tamoota ghadan. qala swahibul hikayati fa baynama huwa yuhaddithunee wa idza bil babi yutwraqu wa qa-ilun yaqulu.

I asked, “Who are you, with whom (in this meeting) Allah has blessed me? Then he (the Prophet (ﷺ) said “I am the one who has been sent as a mercy to all worlds, I am the leader of those who came first and those who will come last, I am Muhammad (ﷺ), last of all prophets and the messenger of the lord of the worlds.” Then I uttered, “Lailahaha illallahu Muhammadurrasulullah”. Then he opened his arms and hugged me, saying that “This heaven and that palace are for you.” I asked him (ﷺ) what is the sign for it. He said “It is that You would die tomorrow.” (‘Aliyyu bnu zaid (R) says) while the Dzimmy was talking with him, there was a knocking on the door and someone was saying

زَالَ الْجَفَا عَنَّا وَقَدْ زَالَ الشَّقَا Zalal jafa ‘anna waqad zala sshaqa	إِنْ كُنْتَ أَنْتَ حَظِيتَ يَوْمًا بِاللِّقَا In kunta anta hazheeta yauman billiqa
The failure and separation that we had, have been moved out (we have also won it now)	If you were granted on a day a chance to cast a glance on the Prophet (ﷺ)

فَقُلْتُ لَهُ مَنْ هَؤُلاَءِ قَالَ زَوْجَتِي وَابْنَتِي قَالَ فَدَخَلَتاَ وَهُمَا تَقُولاَنِ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللهُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَّسُولُ اللهِ فَقَالَ لَهُمَا كَيْفَ إِيمَانُكُمَا قَالَتَا رَأَيْنَاهُ كَمَا رَأَيْتَ رَأْيَ عَيْنٍ وَإِنْ كَانَ وَعَدَكَ بِقَصْرٍ فَقَدْ وَعَدَنَا بِقَصْرَيْنِ قَالَ فَمَاتَ الرَّجُلُ فِي الْوَقْتِ وَفِي الْغَدِ مَاتَتِ ابْنَتُهُ وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ مَاتَتْ زَوْجَتُهُ رَحِمَهُمُ اللهُ تَعَالَى وَرَحِمَنَا مَعَهُمْ اَلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي جَعَلَنَا مِنْ أُمَّةِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمْ كُلَّمَا ذَكَرَهُ الذَّاكِرُونْ وَغَفَلَ عَنْ ذِكْرِهِ الْغَافِلُونْ Fa qultu lahu man ha-ulai? qala zaujatee wabnatee qala fadakhalata wahuma taqoolani -  La ilaha illallahu Muhammadarrasulullahi-  fa qala lahuma kaifa imanukuma? qalata rainahu kama ra-ayta ra-ya ‘ainin wa in kana wa’adaka bi qaswrin fa qad wa’adana bi qaswraini, qala fa mata rrajulu filwaqti wafil ghadi matatibnatuhu wafil yaumithalithi matat zaujatuhu rahimahumullahu ta`la wa rahimana ma`ahum  alhamdu lillahilladzee ja`alana min ummati Muhammadin swallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam kullama dzakarahu dzakiroona wa ghafala ‘an dzikrihil ghafilun

I asked him who were those people? He said, “My wife and my daughter.” ‘Aliyyubnu Zaid (R) says: “They entered uttering Lailaha Illallahu Muhammadu Rasulullahi (There is no God but Allah, And Muhammad (ﷺ) is His Messenger)”. He asked both of them. What is the reason for your believing? They said, “We also saw the Prophet (ﷺ) (in our dreams) as you had before. If he had promised you one palace, he has promised us two palaces.” Aliyyubnu Zaid (R) said “The man died immediately, the next day his daughter died, and on the third day his wife also passed away. May Allah grant His mercy upon them and upon us.” All praises belong to Allah who made us in the Ummah of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) as long as reciters of dhikr are reciting His dhikr (in his remembrance) and as long as the heedless are forgetting His remembrance.

صَلُّوا عَلَى هَذَا النَّبِيِّ مُحَمَّدٍ Swallu ala hazannabiyyi Muhammadi	اَللهْ وَلِي اَللهْ وَلِي نِعْمَ الْوَلِي Allah wali Allah wali ni-mal wali
Please Send Swalawat upon this Prophet Muhammad (SAW)	Allah SWT is The Guardian. He is the best Guardian.

all the people with the remembrance of prophet Muhammad (ﷺ)’s birth (Ahmad   is the second name for the prophet (ﷺ)	have made alive the spring of heart, The month of Maulid (Rabiul Awwal)

وَخَوَارِقُ الْعَادَاتِ لَيْلَةَ مَوْلِدِ Wa khawariqul ‘aadathi lailata maulidi	جَاءَتْ لِمَوْلِدِهِ الشَّرِيفِ بَشَائِرٌ Jaa-at li maulidihisshareefi basha-irun
And extraordinary wonders occurred in that night in which the Prophet (ﷺ) was born.	In the respect of his (ﷺ) great birthday, there had occurred many happy good news.

شَهِدَتْ بِصِحَّتِهَا عُقُولُ الْحُسَّدِ Shahidat bi swihhatiha ‘uqulul hussadi	آيَاتُهُ وَالْمُعْجِزَاتُ كَثِيرَةٌ Aayatuhu wal mu‘jizatu katheeratun
The envious people’s wisdom bore witness to its (proofs and miracles) truthfulness.	There are so many proofs and miracles related to him (ﷺ). (Note: Extraordinary wonders and miracles shown by Allah through the prophets (A) to prove their prophethood are known as Mu’jiza. Extraordinary wonders which appear from Auliya (by Allah’s order) as honour for them are known as Karamat)

غَرُبَتْ لَهُ رُدَّتْ بِغَيْرِ تَرَدُّدِ Gharubat lahu ruddat bighairi taraddudi

اَلْبَدْرُ شُقَّ بِأَمْرِهِ وَالشَّمْسُ إِذْ Al badru shuqqa bi amrihi wasshamsu idz

and the sun which had already set down was returned for him, without giving any chance for doubt (for the quarrellers about this occurrence) [Note: This event happened amidst the travel for the Battle of Khaiber at one place, namely, Sahbaah (in 7 H). As the Prophet (ﷺ) was taking rest in his lap, Ali (Radhiyallahu Anhu) could not perform the Asar prayer on time. So, the Prophet (ﷺ) prayed to Allah to bring the sun back for a while and it happened. Similar event is reported   in 6- H also in the battle of Khandaq in the favour of Rasulullah (ﷺ) and Swahaba.

The moon was split by his (ﷺ) order. (Note: This event is mentioned in the Holy Qur’an (54:1). This event is also reported in many Hadiths. So, it cannot be denied by any believer (Ibnu Katheer 4/261; Sharahu Muslim 2/373)

وَعَلَيْهِ قَدْ سَلَّمْنَ بَعْدَ تَشَهُّدِ Wa’alaihi qad sallamna ba’-da tashahhudi	وَالْوَحْشُ وَاْلأَشْجَارُ قَدْ سَجَدَتْ لَهُ Wal wahshu wal ashjaru qad sajadat lahu
They all Greeted him (ﷺ) with salaam (Assalamu Alaikum ya Rasulallah) after reciting Shahadah (Ash-hadu Alla ilaha illallahu Wa-ashhadu Anna Muhammadarrasoolullah)	Animals and trees came to him in obedience. (it was in reply to the challenge of the opponents)

حَتَّي اكْتَفَوا وَّيَسِيرُهُ لَمْ يَنْفَدِ Hattaktafawwa yaseeruhu lam yanfadee	وَمِنَ الْيَسِيرِ سَقَى وَأَطْعَمَ جَيْشَهُ Waminal yseeri saqa wa atw’ama jaishahu
It was sufficient for them – the little food which was blessed by his touch and prayers never ran out (even after feeding all the soldiers)	the Prophet (ﷺ) served his soldiers and followers from very little food and drink until all got out of their hunger

وَمَقَامُهُ الْمَحْمُودُ يَوْمَ الْمَوْعِدِ Wa maqamuhul mahmudu yaumal mau’idi	وَلَهُ الْوَسِيلَةُ وَالْفَضِيلَةُ وَالْعُلَى Walahul waseelatu wal fadheelatu wal ‘ula
And (he also got) Al-Maqamul Mahmud, on the day of promise, i.e. the Day of Judgment. (Al-maqamul mahmood is the position where the prophet (ﷺ) will make his Grand-Intercession- الشفاعة العظمى)	He deserves the position of Waseela (highest position in the pardise which is reserved for the prophet (ﷺ), Fadheela (it is another position in the paradise which is reserved for him (ﷺ)) and many other positions.

If we wish to praise him (ﷺ) perfectly, we cannot reach our goal	His good qualities are uncountable.

(Prayers for) The ever-growing swalats-blessings, along with continuous salams-greetings	So always be upon you from us

And upon those who were preceded by them in the way of truth. So, (Oh reader) please do your best (to be among with them in the next world)	And upon all your companions (swahaba) who are very honoured

Then an Ansari woman or man said, ‘yaa Rasulalallah (ﷺ)! Shall we make a pulpit for you?’ He replied, ‘If you wish.’ So, they made a pulpit for him. when it was Friday, the Prophet (ﷺ) sat on the new pulpit to give his sermon. Suddenly, the stem of the tree started to cry like a child on missing its chance (in extreme love for rasulullah (ﷺ). All those who were present heard its loud weeping. Then Prophet (ﷺ) came down and embraced it till it stops crying.	And the wood came to you weeping
