AL-QAŞĪDAH BY THE AUTHOR [In Praise of the Prophet & his Noble Stars] وَدَادُهُ قُرَبُ نَاهِيْكَ عَنْ قُرَبِ نَفْسِي الْفِدَاءُ لِبَدْرٍ هَاشِمِن عَرَبِي May my soul be sacrificed for the Arab Moon of Banu Hashim; His love draws one closer to Allah and away from all else. وَمِنْ فُسُوقٍ وَّمِنْ شِرْكِ وَمِنْ تَبَبٍ نَجَّا الْوَرَى مِنْ كُلِّ زُورٍ وَمَعْصِيَةٍ He saved mankind from all manner of dishonesty and disobedience, And from transgression, associating partners with Allah, and all that leads to perdition. ضُعْفًا وَرُجِمَتْ ذَرَارِي الْجَانَّ بِالشُّهَبِ فَنُوِّرَتْ مِلَّةٌ كَانَتْ كَمَعْدُومٍ A nation, weak and deprived, grew luminous, And the progeny of the Jinn were stoned by his shooting stars. وَسَاقَطَتْ لُؤْلُؤًا رَطْبًا عَلَى حَطَبٍ وَزَحْزَحَتْ دَخْنَا غَشَّى عَلَى مِلَلٍ The smoke which veiled the religion dissipated, And wet pearls fell on firewood.
