And bring your Lord to remembrance in your [very] soul, with humility and remember without loudness in words, in the mornings and evenings; and be not of those who are unheedful” [Surah al-A'raaf, Aayah 205]

This recording is the second in my #iPhoneStudio series.  It was recorded on an iPhone 5 placed about 12 inches away from me. The *only* postproduction that I've done on this is a fade-in and a fade-out.  Everything else here is intact from the original raw audio.

Again, a beautiful Naat expressing love and longing for the Beloved of God, peace be upon him.

I've included the lyrics and an attempt at translation below.

-----------------------------------------------------

Ya Muhammad Muhammad (SAW) mein kehta raha,
Noor kay motiyon ki ladi ban gaee,
Ayaton sey milata raha ayatayn,
Phir jo dekha to Naat e Nabi (SAW) ban gaye.

Jab chidah tazkira husn e sarkar ka,
Wad-Duha pad liya, wal-Qamar keh dia,
Sooraton kee tilawat bhi hoti rahi,
Naat bhi ban gayi baat bhi ban gayi.

Jo bhi ansoo bahe merey Mehboob kay,
Sab key sab abr e rehmat kay cheentay banay,
Chah gaee raat jab zulf lehra gaee,
Jab tabasum kiya chandani ban gaee.

Yeh to maana kay jannat hai bagh e haseen,
Khoobsoorat hey sab khuld ki sar zameen,
Husn e jannat ko phir jab samayta gaya,
Sarwar e ambiya ki galee ban gaee.

O Muhammad, Muhammad, I chanted away,
The words turned into a string of luminous pearls.
And I I kept on reciting verse after the verse, 
It became a Prophetic description unfurled

When the topic arose of my master's beauty
I recited verses that begin with "the sun" and "the moon".
As chapters of the book were being recited away,
I got my poem praising him, and secured my salvation as well.

All the tears that flowed from my beloved's eyes
They became droplets from the rainclouds of mercy
It seemed night cast itself as his hair blew this way.
And when he smiled, it was moonlight itself.

Of course paradise is the garden of beauty.
How stunningly exquisite is the land of that world! 
But when the beauty of paradise was gathered together,
It became an alleyway that led to the Leader of The Prophets.

إنشاد 
سلوي عن الأحباب حرمه الحب
الحب أفناني
حضرة
دع جمال الوجه يظهر
هلال الهدى قد لاح
يا ذا البقا صل على
مفرد (إياك تشهد غيره)
علم التوحيد
قم واسقني في الورد
قرآن كريم
درس 
ما الفائدة من كثرة الذكر 
ما الدليل على كثرة الذكر 
ما الثمرة من كثرة الذكر
وهل يكون الذكر بالقلب أو لا بد أن يكون باللسان
وهل تكون الخلوة بغير شيخ
الفرق بين مريد التبرك ومريد السلوك
لا بد من شيخ حي يعلمه العلم الظاهر والباطن
ما المراد بقولهم المريد بين شيخين كالمرأة بين رجلين
كيفية سلوك الشيخ الهاشمي على الشيخ ابن يلس والشيخ ابن عليوة
أكثر الشيوخ يدعي أنه هو المربي الكامل كيف يعرف المريد كيف يهتدي إلى الشيخ الحقيقي
ما الدليل والبرهان وما الشهود والعيان
هل فعل النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم الخلوة

الشيخ محمد الهاشمي إنشاد وحضرة وأسئلة وأجوبة

Sidi Sa'id Muhammad al-Jamal ar-Rifa'i ash-Shadhili is a Sufi Master and qadi (judge) who taught in the US and in Jerusalem for many years, from the late 1990s until his passing, rahimahullah 'ilayh. He taught the true religion of all of humanity - a religion based in Allah's Unity, Peace, Love, Mercy, Justice, and Freedom, which is Islam. May Allah protect his secret always and give him proximity to Allah's  Beautiful Face for eternity. Amin.
