As-Salamu 'Alaykum,

May God, Most High increase your station and give you all that is good in this world and the next.

Is there any possibility that these qasa'id (spiritual odes) will have audio accompaniment to help those of us who are unfamiliar with the particular style they are sang in and have some difficulty with Arabic without the harakat (diacritical marks)? I have a file of the Hadrami mawlid, but these look exquisite.

Again, thank you again for making these available.

Was-Salam.

Alhamdulillah! May Allah bless you for bringing this treasure to us all.

Ya Haqq!

As-salamu alaykum wr wb,

You are definitely right when you say 'hard work', may Allah bless all who sacrificed their time and effort in putting this little gem online. I hope many can derive benefit from it...(for a moment there I thought it was the translation... nevertheless it's a wonderful idea!)

God bless.


Omar

Even for the non-Ba'Alawi this is one of the most blessed wirds and regiments to read in one's day -- or at least what is easy from it. I have this huge amount of thanks in my heart to Habib 'Umar for gathering literally the best daily collection of du'as, dhikrs, and wirds to read.

I recommend you read Abwab al-Faraj by Shaykh Muhammad ibn 'Alawi al-Maliki al-Hasani another Ba'Alawi Shaykh, may Allah have mercy on him, who gives the explanation and benefit for many of the awraad which are read daily in this collection and increases your certainty in the extreme power of these wirds.

An example:

Reading the 99 names of Allah daily grants one the secret of each name,

The istighfaar said in the mornings, and I believe evenings, in this work is an extremely effective means of warding off calamities from one's life.

Saying Subhan Allah wa Bihamdihi Subhan Allah al-'Azim Astaghfirallah 100 times every morning gives one a great portion of the dunya, as well as forgives one's minor sins and wards off many calamities.

Reading the Wirdul Latif gives one major protection in one's day and fulfills the sunnah supplications of morning and evening (please read Shaykh Hamza Yusuf's commentary in "Purification of the Heart," or Habib 'Umar's commentary in the "Glorious Treasure" availible at Guidancemedia.com).

Reading Wirdul Imam Nawawi each morning is a major means of granting ease and reliance upon Allah in one's day and night -- and it contains some great sunnah du'as which have been narrated back to the Prophet (SAW).

Surat Yassin in the morning gives ease in one's day, Surat al-Waqi'yah at 'Asr gives spiritual and material rizq, and Surat al-Mulk at night protects one from the hellfire and punishment of the grave, Surat al-Kahf on Friday is pure light for one's home.

And, another great thing about this book, is that if you (unlike weak me who just takes from it occassionaly ) have the strength to read all of the awraad then you will be able to fill the time between Fajr and Duha with dhikr and then pray -- the reward of a Hajj and 'Umrah as narrated in many ahadith and a great practice of many Sufis as narrated by Shaykh 'Abd al-Qadir 'Isa in his Haqa'iq.

Thus, if your an ordinary Muslim without a tariqa be sure to get this work just to get a few awraad that you can read -- maybe even just Wirdul Latif or even less than that -- a day and bring in barakah to your life.

wa 'alaykum as salam wa rahmatallahi wa barakatahu.
