Authentic Proof
Recitation Of Poetry Of Love and Praise For Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi
Wassalam is Sunnah:
1)
The Prophet’s uncle al-`Abbas composed poetry praising the birth of the
Prophet , in which are found the following lines: "When you were born, the earth
was shining, and the firmament barely contained your light, and we can pierce
through, thanks to that radiance and light and path of guidance." (Suyuti’s,
Husn al-maqsid, Ibn Kathir’s Mawlid, Ibn Hajar’s Fath al-Bari.)
2)
Ibn Kathir mentions the fact that according to the Sahaba, the Prophet Praised his own name and recited poetry about himself in the middle of the battle of Hunayn in order to encourage the companions and scare the enemies. That day he said:"I am the Prophet! This is no lie. I am the son of `Abd al-Muttalib!" (Ibn Kathir, Dhikra Mawlid an-Nabi) 3) The Prophet was therefore happy with those who praised him because it is Allah’s I order, and he rewarded them from what Allah I was providing him by praying for them and giving them gifts. Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya relates that the Prophet e prayed that Allah I support Hassan Bin Thabit with ruh al-qudus (the Divine spirit) as long as he would support the Prophet e with his poetry. Similarly, the Prophet e rewarded Ka`b ibn Zuhayr’s t poem of praise with a robe (burda). Hassan Bin Thabit - Author of Qasidah BurdahHasan Bin Thabit recited this poetry about the Prophet e on
the day of his death saying:
I say, and none can find fault with me
But one lost to all sense:
I shall never cease to praise him.
It may be for so doing I shall be
forever in Paradise,
With the Chosen One for whose
support in that I hope,
And to attain to that day I devote
all my efforts.
The Prophet Accepted Poetry in his Honour:
1) In the time
of the Prophet, it is well-known that poets came to him with all kinds of works
praising him, writing about his campaigns and battles and about the Sahaba. This
is proved by the numerous poems quoted in the Siras of Ibn Hisham, al-Waqidi,
and others. The Prophet was therefore happy with those who praised him because
it is Allah's order, and he gave them from what Allah was providing him. If we
get together and do something in order to approach the Prophet, we are doing
something to approach Allah, and approaching the Prophet will make Allah happy
with us. The Prophet was happy with good poetry since it is reported in
Bukhari's al-Adab al-mufrad and elsewhere that he said: "There is wisdom in
poetry." Thus the Prophet's uncle al-`Abbas composed poetry praising the birth
of the Prophet, in which are found the following lines:
When you were born, the earth was shining,
and the firmament barely contained your light,
and we can pierce through,
thanks to that radiance and light and path of guidance.
Singing and Reciting Poetry:
3) Ibn Qayyim also mentions `Abdullah ibn Rawaha's long poem praising the Prophet as the latter entered Mecca, after which, the Prophet prayed for him. He prayed that Allah support Hassan ibn Thabit, with the holy spirit as long as he would support the Prophet with his poetry. Similarly the Prophet rewarded Ka`b ibn Zuhayr's poem of praise with a robe. The Prophet asked Aswad bin Sarih to make poems praising Allah, and he asked someone else to recite the poem of praise of 100 verses which Umayya ibn Abi halh had composed. Ibn Qayyim continues, "`A'isha always recited poems praising him and he was happy with her."
