Title: أحبتي أخذوا

مَاذَا أُعَبِّرُ عَنْ ذَاتٍ لَهَا شَرَفٌ			مِنْ قَابِ قَوْسَيْنِ أَوْ أَدْنَى وَ تَمْجِيدُ
أَمَدَّهُ اللَّهُ بِالْقُرْآنِ فَهُوَ لَهُ				تَاجٌ بِجَوْهَرِ التَّوْحِيدِ مَعْقُودُ
وَ زَانَهُ اللَّهُ بِاْلأَخْلاَقِ فَهِيَ لَهُ			عِقْدٌ مِنَ الْجَوْهَرِ الْوَضَّاءِ مَنْضُودُ

| اَلْمُصْطَفَى خَيْرُ مَوْلُودٍ وَأَكْرَمُهُمْ | وَلَيْسَ يُشْبِهُهُ فِي النَّاسِ مَوْلُودُ |
| سَلْ أُمَّهُ عَنْ كَرَامَاتٍ لَهُ ظَهَرَتْ | وَمُعْجِزَاتٍ فَذَاكَ الْيَوْمُ مَشْهُودُ |
| اَلْمُصْطَفَى قِبْلَةُ الدُّنْيَا وَكَعْبَتُهَا | وَبَابُهُ مَلْجَأٌ لِلْخَلْقِ مَشْهُودُ |
| عَلَيْهِ مِنْ صَلَوَاتِ اللَّهِ أَكْمَلُهَا | وَ مِنْ تَحِيَّاتِهِ بِيضٌ مَحَامِيدُ |

## Madha U'abiru  |
| No more can express the nature of his noble self, |
| Than "two bows lengths or nearer," nor there greater praise. |
|   |
| God aided him with the Quran, as a crown |
| studded with the gem of Tawhid. |
|   |
| And God adorned him with virtues, like a necklace |
| of bright jewels in perfect arrangement. |
|   |
| al-Mustafa* is the best of those born, the most noble; |
| He is not like anyone born amongst men. |
|   |
| Ask his mother about the wonders that appeared, |
| and miracles, on a day witnessed by many. |
|   |
| al-Mustafa is the qibla of the world and its kaaba |
| His door is a refuge for man, tried and true. |
|   |
| May God send His most perfect blessings upon him |
| and His greetings pure and bestowing honor. |
