Yearning For the

Beloved ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص

A Collection of poetry

In remembrance of the Prophet ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص

1st Edition

I desired to praise the Chosen One and was hindered By my own inability to grasp the extent of his glory.

How can one such as I measure an ocean, when the ocean is vast?

And how can one such as I count the stones and the stars?

If all of my limbs were to become tongues, even then – Even then I could not begin to praise him as I desired.

And if all of creation gathered together in an attempt To praise him, even then they would stint in his due.

I have altogether ceased trying – awestruck, clinging to courtesy,

Tempered by timidity, glorifying his most exalted rank.

Indeed, sometimes silence holds within it the essence of eloquence, And often speech merely fodder for the faultfinder.

Yearning for the Beloved ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص

What follows is an extract from a talk given by Sayyidi al-Habib `Umar bin Hafiz (may Allah preserve him and benefit us by him) in the mawlid in Dar al-Mustafa 13th Rabi` al-Awwal 1434 / 24th January 2013.

Our Lord has not permitted us to love anyone in creation as much as Muhammad, because He Himself does not love anyone in creation as much as

He loves Muhammad ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص. If the King of Kings, the One True God, does not love anyone as much as He loves him, how can I; as a slave, love anyone as much as I love the Chosen One or prefer anyone over him (may Allah bless him and grant him peace)? Where are the ones who know these truths and give them their due? The Noble Companions drank from these cups. Look at their words and actions, and look at how they spent their days and nights. Look at how the light of Allah spread through mankind at their hands. They loved him, were attached to him and their hearts were filled with his love. Had a single hair from the head of Abu Bakr al-Siddiq or any one of the Foremost, the first of the Emigrants and the Helpers been divided up among those in this gathering none of us would be able to sleep for a month. This is because every single hair on their heads contained such true, complete, perfect, sincere, deep love. For this reason they could not sleep. They would leave their beds, their families, their food and drink in order to see his face. They could not contain themselves until they had seen his face, even though they had seen it a few hours earlier. One of them said: “O Messenger of Allah, when I remember you at home when I am with my wife and children I become like someone insane.” Do you see how they loved him? How they were attached to him? What they experienced? They loved the earth upon which he walked. No eye has seen anyone who venerates anyone as much as the Companions venerated Muhammad. No heart has known anyone who loves anyone as much as the Companions loved Muhammad. O Allah, bestow prayers upon him and give us a portion of this love and this veneration. So much time has elapsed between us and them, and so many tribulations have befallen the Ummah and so many voices call us to attach our

hearts to people other than the Beloved ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص, but in spite of all this, Allah

continues to allow people to drink from these cups

Intentions for Reciting the Mawlid

Before reciting the Mawlid, the scholars traditionally make a number of intentions. They then read Surat al-Fatihah and donate its reward to the Prophet (May Allah bless him and grant him peace) in the hope that their recitation and their intentions are accepted. Here are some of the intentions that

Sayyidi al-Habib `Umar bin Hafiẓ (May Allah preserve him and benefit us by him) makes prior to reciting the Mawlid. We recite the Fatihah… With the intention that Allah—by us remembering Him and remembering His Messenger, our Master Muhammad (may Allah bless him and grant him and his Family and Companions peace) and his birth and awesome attributes—opens the doors to attaining His support and assistance and guidance and to attaining uprightness and the speedy relief of the suffering of the Islamic Ummah. With the intention that Allah deflects calamities from us and from all of the people of la ilaha ill’Allah in the East and the West. With the intention that He grants us His guidance in all our movements and our stillness and that He makes us firm upon the truth in what we say, we do and we believe. With the intention that He enables us to perfect our following of this Prophet, the Chosen One, Muhammad (may Allah bless him and grant him and his Family and Companions peace) in our words and deeds and intentions and aims and desires and our movements and our stillness and in every state, inward and outward, and that He allows us to beautify our emulation of him and allows us to walk along his path and drink from the waters he has drunk from. With the intention that by him (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) He looks upon us, our families, our children, those dear to us and our descendants and upon those who are attached to us. With the intention that He fills our hearts with the light of faith and certainty and knowledge of Him. That He makes us among those He has chosen to bring close to Him and among those He has blessed with the realities of sincere and pure slavehood to Him. With the intention that He protects us from all harm and that He rectifies the inward and the outward, and that He allows us to attain the realities of taqwa.

vii

With the intention that He makes the Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) pleased with his Ummah and that He makes us, our families, our children and our friends a joy to his eye.

and that He grants us the greatest portion of His remembrance and the remembrance of this Prophet, the Chosen One.

and that He grants us the greatest portion of His closeness and the closeness of this Prophet, The Chosen One. and that He grants us the greatest portion of His love and the love of this Prophet, the Chosen One.

and that He grants us the greatest portion of His care and the care of this Prophet, the Chosen One.

and that He grants us the greatest portion of His pleasure and the pleasure of this Prophet, the Chosen One. Inwardly and outwardly in every state and in every affair in this life, the Barzakh, the next life and that He gathers us together in the highest level of Firdaws while He is pleased With us.

With the intention that He gives us the greatest portion of being with him in the Barzakh and in the shade of the Throne and at the Pool and when he passes over the Bridge, and when he enters Paradise (may Allah bless him and grant him and his Family and Companions peace). With the intention that He rectifies our hearts and our bodies, our inward and our outward and all our affairs, that He deflects all evil from us. With the intention that He raises the ranks of the pious people of this Ummah and all the pious people and that we receive the blessings of the Prophets and Messengers and their families and those that follow them with excellence and that He gives them the greatest of rewards on our behalf and that He unites us with them in the Abode of Mercy while He is pleased with us, without any prior punishment or reprimand or trial or account. With the intention of removing the tribulations that have befallen us and all the Muslims inwardly and outwardly. With the intention that Allah blesses us with the most noble of attributes and unites us with the best of groups and that He rectifies every affair inwardly and outwardly in this life and the next.

viii

With the intention that he gives us the best of endings in goodness, gentleness and wellbeing. With the intentions that the pious people have made and will make and all pious intentions that the knowledge of our Lord, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful, encompasses for us and the whole Ummah. We donate the reward of the Fatihah to the spirit of the Prophet Muhammad (May Allah bless him and grant him and his Family and Companions peace) – al-Fatihah.

Allah! There is no god, but Him; the Ever-Living, the

Self Subsisting, the Eternal One. Neither slumber nor

sleep can overtake Him. To Him belongs whatsoever is

in the Heavens and whatsoever is on the earth. Who is

there that can intercede in His Presence, except by His

Permission? He knows what will happen to them (His

creatures) in this world, and what will happen to them

in the Hereafter; nor shall they comprehend anything at

all of His Knowledge except as He Wills. His Throne

extends over the Heavens and the earth, and guarding

and preserving it, does not exhaust Him, for He is the

To Allah belongs all that is in the Heavens and on earth.

Whether you disclose what is in yourselves or conceal

it, Allah will call you to account for it. He will forgive

whom He wishes and will punish whom He wishes; He

has Power over all things. The Messenger believes in

what has been revealed to him from his Lord, and (so

do) the believers. They all believe in His Angels, His

Books and His Messengers. They say: “We do not

differentiate between any of His Messengers. We hear

and we obey. We ask You forgiveness our Lord, and to

You will we all return. Allah will not burden any soul

with more than what it can bear. It shall be compensated

for whatever good it has done, and it will be punished

for whatever evil it has done. “Our Lord! Do not take us

to task if we forget or make a mistake. Our Lord, do not

place on us a burden like that which you have placed on

those before us! Our Lord, do not place on us a burden

that we do not have the strength to bear! Pardon us, and

grant us forgiveness; and have Mercy on us. You are our

Protector; so grant us victory over the disbelieving

people.” Ameen
