Naath ~ Ziyaarate Taiba (Visiting Madina Tayyibah)

bismillahh•••
…

A few points mentioned in the poem :

> The poets ardent love for Madina Shareef is depicted, as he enters the beautiful city, but at the same time he is somewhat gripped with a kind of awe and fear …

 > He is fearful of his sins – but has great hopes in Allah’s mercy …

 > He describes the lofty position of Rasulullah Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam. His sayings (Ahaadith) have become one of the primary sources for the derivation of laws in our Shariat.

 > He describes the humility of Rasulullah Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam, who washed his clothes by himself, and also the poverty he underwent.

 > He was the Seal of Prophethood and Allah had completed his favours upon him and chose Islam as his Deen.

 > Walking on the sand of Madina brings such serenity and delight to the poet … his soles feel the softness and comfort as he treads along. Even the thorn of the trees feel softer than a smooth flower …

 > Likewise, the name “Muhammad” Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam on his tongue, brings him so much joy and ecstasy …

Important aspects discussed in this Hadith :

 …

• The similarities of a Believer and a mirror

• Qualities of a mirror >

~ Gives an honest, fair & an unbiased picture of the object

~ It does not belittle the object

 ~ It does not keep the image for everyone else to see. It does not backbite, nor reveal the image to others

~ It does not travel looking for shortcomings of objects deliberately. The object goes to the mirror

• One doesn’t get angry and upset with the mirror when the weaknesses are shown.

• Accept the advice of a sincere Believer with regards to your shortcomings, weaknesses, faults.

• Don’t blame the mirror. The defect/scar is on the object itself, not the mirror. Don’t blame the advisor (the Alim), nor the Noble Shariah

• Reveal the faults of the other with diplomacy and politely. Don’t look down upon any ones weakness.

• Don’t give up hope and become frustrated, when one fails to take heed to your sincere advices. Continue, with fervent Duas for his reformation
