ALMISKEENAH

 

 

LAYLATUL BARAAH

Ya Rabb,

You soon unlock

From a treasure chest,

Within a treasure box,

Within a treasure casket,

Within a treasure trove,

From a Treasure Palace

A fragment of Your Hidden Treasure.

 

Ya Rabb,

You descend,

Holding a glistening gem.

A blinding shimmer,

Crystallized as

Laylatul-bara’ah.

Secreted in its flawless facets

Is freedom from the Fire.

 

Ya Rabb,

Scorch the residue of rust,

Corrode the corrosion and corruption,

Eradicate malice, pride, shirk, disobedience,

And arrogance keeping me from kith and kin.

For I am doomed

While traces of these linger.

 

Ya Rabb,

On this night favoured by You,

Expiate my sins,

Forgive forgive forgive,

As you witness

The rivers of tears dry

From remorse.

While my forehead becomes concrete in Sajdah,

My body fasts,

My tongue beseeches

The words given by the one purified by You,

To Sayyidatuna Ayesha,

Thousands upon thousands upon thousands,

Upon thousands.

 

Ya Rabb,

My heart ignites

With a fire of yearning,

To be safe from Your Fire.

To be given intercession

By the truthful inviter to the truth

Of Your Truth.

And if death is deemed,

Dress it with Gentleness.

 

Ya Rabb,

Do not close the lid of Your Treasures

Until I am counted as a hair on the sheep of the Kalb tribe.

Do not close the lid of Your Treasures

Until my deeds will be lifted

Rather than thrown.

Until this heart is humbled

In readiness

For Ramadhan purification.

 

Ya Rabb,

Multiply our salutations upon the star of Your Glory.

Amplify our benedictions

To the light from Your Light.

 

Ya Rabb,

Perpetually send Your peace and mercy

Upon the one who invited us to You.

“Shaban is my month” said our Blessed Prophet SallAllahu alaihi wasallam. An excellent time for us to increase our Durood upon him as we prepare for “Ramadhan, the month of my Ummah”, as he SallAllahu alaihi wasallam continued in the Hadith, when Insha’Allah we reap all that we have sown.

As-salamu alayka ya habibi sayyidi,

As-salamu alayka ya nabi al-arabi

Ya Habibi Sayyidi

As-salamu alayka ya habibi sayyidi

As-salamu alayka ya nabi al-arabi

As-salamu alayka ya shafial-muznibin

As-salamu alayka rahamtallah lilaalamin.
