Nader Khan & The BlackSmiths performing live 03/2015 -- Shahe Madina

I don't recall *exactly* when it was, that I heard this Urdu Na'at in praise of The Beloved of God, May God bless him and give him peace, during in my childhood.  I do remember being very young, and in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia in my parents' home.  I also remember that it was being rendered by a person who became my absolute favourite Na'at reciter later in life - the late Hazrat Khursheed Ahmed, may he be enveloped in Divine Mercy.

This was my earliest memory of an introduction to the tradition of praising the Prophet, Sall Allahu 'alaihi wa sallam.  This na'at remains one of my all-time favourite ones to this day.  I hope you all like it too.

This particular recording was recorded live at blessed evening in November 2009, at the Ta'leef Collective in Fremont California.

khusravi achhi lagi na sarvari achhi lagi
hum faqiron ko madinay ki gali achhi lagi
-----We neither liked kingship nor did we like leadership,
-----For us faqirs, we only liked the alleyways of Madinah.

Dur thay to zindagi bay rang thi, bay kayf thi
Unkay Kuchay mein gae to, zindagi achhi lagi
-----When we were distant, our lives were devoid of colour or meaning 
-----Upon arriving at the narrow lanes of his neighbourhood, our life is more likeable.

mae na jaaun ga kahin bhi dar nabi ka chhodh kar
mujh ko ku-e-Mustafa ki chaakri achhi lagi
-----I will never go anywhere, abandoning the Prophet’s threshold.
-----I’ve found joy in serving the streets of Mustafa.

naaz kar tu aye Halima, sarvar-e-kawnayn par
gar lagi achhi to teri, jhopdi achhi lagi
-----Gloat, O Halima, over the Master of both universes
-----Of all the mud huts, it is yours that he liked most.

MANAQIB - Qasida Muhammadiya (verses za to 'ayn)

Hizb al-Bahr (Litany of the Sea) a unique litany made of Quranic verses and supplications, it is a powerful invocation read by multitudes throughout the Muslim world, it was taught by the Prophet to Sidi Abul Hasan al-Shadhili - the renowned Wali'Allah ("Friend of Allah") whilst travelling to Hajj. On the litany, the Shaykh Abul Hassan al-Shadhili said, "By Allah, I did not utter it except as it came from the Holy Prophet, from whose instruction I learned it. 'Guard it;' the Holy Prophet(SAW) said to me, 'for it contains the greatest name of Allah.' It is not recited in any place without security reigning there. If it had been with the inhabitants of Baghdad, the Tatars would not have taken the city."

"Whoever recites it every day at sunrise, Allah hears his prayer, relieves his distress, raises his standing among people, expands his breast with knowledge of the divine oneness, facilitates his concerns, lifts his hardship, keeps from him the evil of man and jinn, and protects him from the harm of mishaps of the night and day."
