Qaseeda Yaa Akrama يَا أَكْرَمَ-قَصِيْدَة

عَلَى حَبِيبِكَ خَيْرِ الْخَلْقِ كُلِّهِمِ ‘Ala habibika khairil khalqi kullihimi	مَوْلاَيَ صَلِّ وَسَلِّمْ دَائِمًا أَبَدًا Maulaya swalli wasallim da-iman abadan
Upon your Beloved, the best of all creatures (Sayyiduna Muhammad (ﷺ)	Oh my Master (Allah The Almighty) please send peace and blessings always forever

سِوَاكَ عِنْدَ حُلُولِ الْحَادِثِ الْعَمَمِ Siwaaka ‘inda huloolil hadithil ‘amami	يَا أَكْرَمَ الْخَلْقِ مَا لِي مَنْ أَلُوذُ بِهِ Yaa akramal khalqi maalie man aluodzu bihi
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’)

إِذَا الْكَرِيمُ تَحَلَّى بِاسْمِ مُنْتَقِمِ Idhal kareemu tahallaa bismi muntaqimi	وَلَنْ يَضِيقَ رَسُولَ اللهِ جَاهُكَ بِي Walan yadheeqa rasulallahi jaahuka bihi
(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)

وَمِنْ عُلُومِكَ عِلْمَ اللَّوْحِ وَالْقَلَمِ Wa min ‘uluomika ‘ilmallauhi walqalami

فَإِنَّ مِنْ جُودِكَ الدُّنْيَا وَضَرَّتَهَا Fainna min juodika ddunya wa dharrataha

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

لَدَيْكَ وَاجْعَلْ حِسَابِي غَيْرَ مُنْخَرِمِ Ladaika waj’al hisabi ghaira munkharimi	يَا رَبِّ وَاجْعَلْ رَجَائِي غَيْرَ مُنْعَكِسٍ Yaa rabbi waj’al rajaie ghaira mun’akisi
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

صَبْرًا مَتَى تَدْعُهُ اْلأَهْوَالُ يَنْهَزِمِ Swabran mata tad-’uhul ahwalu yanhazimi	وَالْطُفْ بِعَبْدِكَ فِي الدَّارَيْنِ إِنَّ لَهُ Waltwuf bi’abdika  fiddaaraini inna lahu
a patience, which will run away when the horrors come	and be kind to your servant in both worlds because verily he has

عَلَى النَّبِيِّ بِمُنْهَلٍّ وَمُنْسَجِمِ ’Alannabiyyi bimunhallin wamunsajimi	وَائْذَنْ لِسُحْبِ صَلاَةٍ مِنْكَ دَائِمَةٍ Wa-’dzhan lisuhbi swalaatin minka daaimatin
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)

وَ أَطْرَبَ الْعِيسَ حَادِي الْعِيسِ بِالنَّغَمِ Wa atwrabal `iesa haadil ’iesi binnaghami	مَا رَنَّحَتْ عَذَبَاتِ الْبَانِ رِيحُ صَبًا Maa rannahat `adzabaatil baani reehu swaban
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)

And Usman (R), Ali (R) who were very noble	Then, O Allah, be pleased with abubakr (R), umar (R)
