EID MILAD UN NABI

Allah ‎ﷻ states in the Holy Qur’an:

فَكَيْفَ إِذَا جِئْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ بِشَهِيدٍ وَجِئْنَا بِكَ عَلَىٰ هَٰؤُلَاءِ شَهِيدًا

Translation: "Just imagine how they will feel when We shall bring a witness from every nation and call upon you, O’Muhammad as a witness against them?" (Surah 4: An-Nisaa, Verse 41).

In this verse, Allah ‎ﷻ states that the Prophet of every nation will be a witness for his nation, but Allah ‎ﷻ will bring our master, the Messenger of Allah ‎ﷺ as a witness over all of them. This means that master, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was a witness of all the nations in the past, and will be a witness for his nation as well.

We know that Shaitaan (Satan) has been around since the beginning and will exist until the end in order to lead humankind astray. So Allah ‎ﷻ protected humankind with our master, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who is a Mercy for the entire universe.

This is the day to be happy and celebrate the birth of the Best of Creation and the Door to Allah ‎ﷻ (Bab-ul-Allah). May this day be a means for us to attain closeness to our beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.

Dua:

O’Lord of all the worlds, give us sincere love for your Beloved,
for the sake of Sayyidatina Fatima Az-Zahra RAA

Ishq de Mahboob ka hum ko ya Ilahul Alameen,
Sayyidatina Masooma Hazrat Fatima ke Wastey.
