QASIDAH: LOVE OF THE RASUL ﷺ

For the benefit of those who are not familiar with Hazrat Allaama Anwar Shah Kashmiri Alayhi  رحمة الله عليه, we should know that he was amongst the greatest of Muhadditheen (scholars of Hadith) of all times.

Ulema have been in search of this qasidah for a long time, and those who managed to find it could not benefit from it, as it was extremely difficult to translate.

It was Hazrat Moulana Moosa’s (D.B.) extreme love for Rasulullah ﷺ that this qasidah came his way in a manner in which we can comfortably say was miraculous.

While Hazrath Moulana Moosa (D.B.) was in Madinah Munawwarah, someone walked up to him, gave him the kitaab and walked away. All of us who were there with Hazrat Moulana D.B. were overjoyed and insisted and imposed
upon Moulana to translate it into English and publish it.

Alhamdulillah, Moulana’s love for Rasulullah ﷺ is of such a nature that he did not hesitate to translate it for the entire ummah to benefit.
