لگاؤ سینے میں آگ ایسی                       قَرار پائے نہ دِل کبھی بھی

رُلائے دِن رات تیری اُلفت                       نبیِّ رَحمَت شَفیعِ اُمّت

میں نام پر تیرے واری جاؤں                    میں عِشق میں تیرے سَر کٹاؤں

دو ایسا جَذبہ دو ایسی ہِمّت                   نبیِّ رَحمَت شَفیعِ اُمّت

قلیل روزی پہ دو قَناعت                 فُضُول گوئی سے دیدو نفرت

دُرُود پڑھتا رہوں بکثرت                  نبیِّ رَحمَت شَفیعِ اُمّت

 

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب       صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Usually in our society poverty is considered to be a very big disaster and utterly disgraceful. However, in fact, poverty is the blessing of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, the wish of the Prophet of Rahmah صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and a harbinger of many virtues and countless benefits. The poor and Masakeen will be enjoying in the Hereafter as they will not be questioned about monetary acts of worship such as Zakah, Fitrah, Hajj etc. because these acts are obligatory only for the rich Muslims who have a particular amount of wealth fixed by Shari’ah. When the wealthy are held accountable in the court of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ for their wealth on the Day of Resurrection, the destitute Muslims will be entering Paradise by the grace and will of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. Hence the poor and destitute will enter
