Qasida Mudariyya Benefits
Virtues of Qasida Mudariyya
Habib Zain ibn Ibrahim has said: ‘One who recites Qasida Mudariyya regularly will see the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in a dream. Others have said that after regular recitation of the Mudariyya they received the vision of the Prophet ﷺ in a dream. Habib Umar ibn Ahmad ibn Sumait, said that his noble father said: ‘One who regularly recites the Mudariyya and the Burda they will see the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in a dream.
Ibrahim ad-Dasuqi said: “Constant recitation of the Qasida Mudariyya on Thursday night is a means to see the Prophet ﷺ in a dream followed by recitation of the following verse from Qasida Burda, continuously until one falls asleep:
نَعَمْ سَرَى طَيْفُ مَنْ أَهْوَى فَأَرَّقَنِي
وَالْحُبُّ يَعْتَرِضُ اللَّذَّاتِ بِالْأَلَمِ
وَالْحُبُّ يَعْتَرِضُ اللَّذَّاتِ بِالْأَلَمِ
Naʿam sarā ṭayfu man ahwā fa arraqanī
Wa l-ḥubbu yaʿtariḍu l-ladhdhāti bi l-alami
Wa l-ḥubbu yaʿtariḍu l-ladhdhāti bi l-alami
Yes, a vision of the one I love came to me by night, and I could not sleep,
Oh, how love hinders the tasting of delight with its suffering!
Oh, how love hinders the tasting of delight with its suffering!
Another story relates that there was a group of people who were travelling to meet Shaykh Nurayn Ahmad Sabir. They were walking along the coast, reciting Qasida Mudariyya, when they reached the verse:
ثُمَّ الصَّلَاةُ عَلَى الْمُخْتَارِ مَا طَلَعَتْ
شَمْسُ النَّهَارِ وُمَا قَدْ شَعْشَعَ الْقَمَرُ
شَمْسُ النَّهَارِ وُمَا قَدْ شَعْشَعَ الْقَمَرُ
Thumma ṣ-ṣalatu ʿala l-mukhtāri mā ṭalaʿat
Shamsu n-nahāri wa mā qad shaʿshaʿa l-qamaru
Shamsu n-nahāri wa mā qad shaʿshaʿa l-qamaru
And then prayers be upon the Chosen One
As long as the sun shines upon the day,
And the moon casts its radiance about
As long as the sun shines upon the day,
And the moon casts its radiance about
Lights radiated from the East to the West, to the extent that they were unable to walk, so they stopped and after a while they continued their journey.
