واہ کیا جُود و کَرَم ہے شہِ بَطحا تیرا       نہیں سُنتا ہی نہیں مانگنے والا تیرا

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب       صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Dear Islamic brothers! Truly our pious predecessors رَحِمَهُمُ الـلّٰـهُ تَـعَالٰی would always remain impatient and restless to visit Madinah Munawwarah as we have heard about Imam-ul-‘Aarifeen, Sayyid Ahmad Kabeer Rifaa’i رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه    that he was deeply overwhelmed by great devotion to the Noblest Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and in remembrance of Taybah, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would even kiss the threshold of the Blessed Mausoleum of the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم spiritually if it was not possible physically, despite that, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would always wait impatiently for the call from the blessed court of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم with heart and soul and when fortune smiled on him he was called from the blessed court of the Noblest Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, he embarked on the blessed journey to Madinah Munawwarah with body and soul. Upon reaching the blessed court, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه presented come couplets and verses in poetic form as a gift dedicating them to the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. It was a day of having good fortune, honour and favour as his beautiful words of verses recited out of intense devotion were accepted in the blessed court and the blessed hand emerged from the luminous grave of the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه kissed the blessed hand.

لب وا ہیں آنکھیں بند ہیں پھیلی ہیں جھولیاں              کتنے مزے کی بھیک ترے پاک در کی ہے

منگتا کا ہاتھ اٹھتے ہی داتا کی دَین تھی                      دُوری قبول و عرض میں بس ہاتھ بھر کی ہے

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب       صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
