Happy Birthday

In the Name of Allah, the All-Merciful, Most Compassionate,
May Allah bless our master Muhammad, and his family and grant them peace.

O Allah, bless and grant peace and blessing to the spirit of our master Muhammad among the spirits, and to his bodies among the bodies, and to his grave among the graves, and to his position among positions, and to his witnessing in witnessings, and to his mention when he is mentioned: a prayer from us on our Prophet. O Allah, convey the greeting to him from us when the greeting of peace is mentioned! Peace be upon the Prophet, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.

Peace be upon you, O Messenger of Allah. Peace be upon you, O beloved of Allah. Peace be upon you, O our master Muhammad ibn 'Abdullah. Peace be upon you and your pure, good family. Peace be upon you and your wives, the Mothers of the Believers. Peace be upon you and all your Companions. Peace be upon us and on the righteous slaves of Allah.

Peace be upon a grave which is visited from afar.
Peace be upon the Rawda where Muhammad is.

Peace be upon the one who visited his Lord in the night
and reached the desire in every aim.

Peace be upon the one who said to the lizard, "Who am I?"
and it replied, "The Messenger of Allah. You are Muhammad."

Peace be upon the one who is buried in a good land
and who the All-Merciful singled out for excellence and glory.

A Prophet to whom Allah have good and radiance.
Good fortune to the person who visits the graves of Muhammad!

If there is any riding making for Madina,
convey my greeting to the beloved Muhammad.

His excellent meadow is my hope and my desire,
and it contains the healing of my heart and its rest and repose.

If it is far from me and it rare that it can be visited
and so its picture is the best image with me.

I run my eyes over the beauty of its meadow
and by it there is solace for my core, my secret and my heart.

Here I am, O Qutb of all the words.
I kiss it, yearning to heal my illness.

May Allah bless the Qutb of existence, Muhammad,
with a prayer which effaces every mistake of mine.

O Allah, Our Lord, by the rank of Your Prophet and Chosen one, Your beloved and selected one, and the best of those who answered Your summons and obeyed You, make our actions sincere and purify our hearts! Let us act in both abodes as is pleasing to You. Save us from all temptations and do not entrust us to ourselves for a single glance nor less than that. Forgive us and our parents and our shaykhs and those to whom we have a duty and to all the Muslims. Glory be to your Lord, the Lord the Might, above what they describe and peace be upon the Messengers. Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds.
