The Shimmering Light : In Mentioning The Birth Of The Interceding Prophet

Assalamualaikum dan selamat sejahtera semua. Syukur ke hadhirat ILAHI, selawat dan salam keatas junjungan besar Nabi Muhammad Sallallah Alaihi Wa Salam serta keluarga

صلى الله على محمد ... صلى الله عليه وسلم
يا نبي سلام عليك ... يا رسول سلام عليك
يا حبيب سلام عليك ... يا رسول الله ... صلوات الله عليك

ALLAH has manifested the Intercessor
The Possessor of the Elevated Station,

And his light filled the horizons
It encompassed the entire Universe,

The icons of Idolatry have been torn down
And the edifice of Idolatry has crumbled,

And the Time of Guidance has drawn near
And the Fortress of Disbelief has violently shaken,

Greeting and a Welcoming
To you, Oh Possessor of the En-Nobled rank,

Oh Master of the people of Revelation
The one whom evil is repelled by,

You are a refuge on the day of gathering
For all of creations (men and jin) shall flee to you,

And call out to you saying
"Look at what has overcome us from atrocious terror"

Welcome! Oh Light of my eyes, Welcome!
Welcome! Oh Grandfather of Hussein, Welcome!

And for it (the intercession) you will Prostrate
And will be addressed, "Intercede, for your intercession is accepted"

For ALLAH has sent Mercy upon you
So long as light shines and disseminates,

And by you, we ask the Most Merciful
And the Lord of the Throne hears us,

My Lord! Forgive my sins. Oh ALLAH!
By the Blessing of the Interceding Guide. Oh ALLAH!

Oh Possessor of great bounties, Oh Lord!
Gather us all with the Chosen one,

And by him, Glance upon us
And by him grant us all that we desire,

And avert from us all calamities
And divert and raise all afflictions,

صلى الله على محمد ... صلى الله عليه وسلم

And give us to drink Oh Lord! And come to our rescue
With a life giving rain which pours down,

And culminate my life with excellence
And beautify the return (to You) and end affair,

And may the Mercy of ALLAH enshroud
The one who embodied all of beauty

Ahmad, the Pure and (upon) his Family
And the Companions, so long as light shines...
