An archive of the Chicago Mawlid Committee's gatherings. 
~ ~ ~
CMC was founded with the sole purpose of remembering and honoring the Prophet, may peace and blessings be upon him. God-willing, CMC will organize and present a Mawlid every month. By presenting a Mawlid every month, as well as other events, we can try to keep the love for the Prophet, may Peace and Blessings be upon him, alive and flowing in Chicago’s vibrant Muslim Community.

Come celebrate! Your presence honors us and the gathering as we all join in the feast of souls. Experience devoted munshideen, learned scholars, a revival of tradition, and love of the Prophet, may peace and blessings be upon him, that is rare to find.

In the speed of modern-day life, it is important to stop and remember the one who will intercede on our behalf on the Day of Judgement, when there where will be no intercession except his, the one who prayed for us before we were born, the one who is the link between this Finite and the Infinite worlds, and the one whose uncreated word of God was revealed to his heart.

Muslims all over the world gather regularly to remember and celebrate the Prophet, may peace and blessings be upon him. This time-honored tradition is an enormous celebration in many Muslim countries and an amazing opportunity to show and teach our children and families how to love and respect the Prophet, may peace and blessings be upon him. The Chicago Mawlid Committee seeks to bring that same celebration for all to experience and taste right here in Chicago.

Just a girl who is brave enough to put her voice here on SoundCloud.

A resource for traditional qasidas (poems, odes), naats and nasheeds taken from around the world, most of which are written by various spiritual masters of the sacred path of sufism (tassawuf - the Islamic science of spirituality).

'The aim of qasidas or spiritual odes is to worship the creator, by turning the hearts to the Divine, who says 'And when My servants ask you of Me, truly I am close' (Quran 2:186).

The purpose of qasidas in the Sufi path is to convey the experiential gnosis of forebears to subsequent generations, for what comes from the heart goes into the heart, and most of the poets who wrote them where Shaykhs of the spiritual paths (tariqa) who addressed their words to those with experiences like themselves or to aspirants.

The person who can benefit from such qasidas is someone whose way lies with the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace), and whose heart lies with Allah'
