BACKGROUND

Passed down over generations as a traditional melody from Maqam Jiharkah (and less frequently, 'Ajam), the great saint and poet, Sayyid Muhammad Mahdi Al-Rawwās Al-Rifā'i (d. 1870), takes the ardent traveller on a journey to meet the Beloved ﷺ. As he gets closer, his yearning increases until he arrives at his  destination - the Illuminated city of Al-Madinah, may peace be upon it's dwellers.

The composition begins with a solo from the marvellous takhmīs of Imām Al-Suhrawardi's famous poem "Abadan Tahinnu Ilaykum Al-Awrah'' by Shaykh Muhammad Al-Yaqoubi.

Ya Hadi Al-Rukban follows the poetic metre Baḥr al-Baṣīṭ, represented by the mnemonic mustaf'ilun-fā'ilun-mustaf'ilun-fā'ilun (مُسْتَفْعِلُنْ فَاعِلُنْ مُسْتَفْعِلُنْ فَاعِلُنْ), and a rhythm called Jammālah (الجَمّالَة) - 4/4 - which itself comes from the meaning of those who ride camels. It stirs the emotions of the the traveller, bringing him closer to his ultimate destination.

وصلة تراثية على مقام الرست تأخذنا لأبعد مدى وأرقى حدود من التجلي..

Eckhart Tolle Reads from his own Book: Practicing the Power of Now 

04 Practicing The Power of NOW -

A truly unique work! The Soliloquy of the Full Moon is the first English mawlid work ever written. An 1000 line panegyric, it is a fully metered, rhyming, epic poem celebrating the virtues of the Prophet ﷺ, the signs preceding his advent, the wonders of his birth and nursing, the first revelations and his night journey and ascension.

For the first time, English speakers can enjoy the full experience of traditional mawlid. Classical in form, Shakespearean in cadence, it was composed over twelve nights by the author at the age of only 15. It is a must for every home.
