Book Name:Ala Hazrat Ki Shayeri Aur Ishq e Rasool
Dear Islamic brothers! There is no doubt in the fact that A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه was a great devotee of the Prophet in his time. He spent his entire life in devotion to the Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. When he رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه would speak, he would spread Prophetic love through his words. When he رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه would pick up his pen, he would express Prophetic love through writing. Every single moment of his life was spent in drinking from the cup of Prophetic love, and giving others to drink. His poetry shows his level of devotion to the Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم.
A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه possessed many qualities, but one specific thing was that much of his poetry is based on meanings found in the commentary of the Quran and alludes towards Ahadees. Meaning, the excellences of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم that are mentioned in the Quran and Ahadees are indicated towards in the poetry of A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه. Just as heرَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه states in one place:
Mu’min hoon mu’minon pay Ra’oof-o-Raheem ho
Saa’il hoon saa’iloon ko khushi لَا
نَہَر ki hay
(Hadaiq-e-Bakhshish, p. 212)
Here, there is an indication to this verse:
وَ اَمَّا السَّآىٕلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْؕ(۱۰)
And do not scold the beggar.
[Kanz-ul-Iman (translation of Quran)] (Part 30, Surah Al-Duha, Verse 10)
In another place, Sayyidi A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه states:
Mujrim bulaye aaye hayn جَآءُوۡکَ hay gawah
Phir radd ho kab yeh shan kareemon kay dar ki hay
(Hadaiq-e-Bakhshish, p. 205)
This line of poetry is an indication to the following verse:
