qasidah-hu-allah-hu-al-haqq-hu-al-hayy-hu-nur-blog-zawia-ebrahim-spiritual-retreat-gauteng

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ
الْحَمْدُ للهِ وَسَّلَامٌ عَلىٰ عِبَادِهِ الَّذِيْنَ اصْطَفىٰ

Chorus:
هُوَ اللهُ – هُوَ الْحَقُ – هُوَ الْحَيُّ – هُوَ النُّورُ- لَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ط
محمد عبده ورسوله – صَلَّى الله عَليْهِ وَ آلِهِے – صَلَّى الله عَليْهِمْ وَسَلَّمَ ط
hua_llah – hua_l haqq – hua_lhayy – hua_nnur – la ilaha illa hu.
muhammad ‘abduhu wa rasuluhu – salla_llahu ‘alayhi wa alihi – salla_llahu ‘alayhim wa sallam.

He is Allah – He is the Real – He is the Living – He is the Light – none but He is worshiped.
Muhammad is His Bondman and His Envoy;
Allah’s Blessings be upon him and his family; Allah’s Blessings be upon them and peace.

(1)
كَانَ اللهُ وَلَم يَكُ مَعَهُ شَي – وَ اَلآنَ كَمَا كَانَ
kana_llah wa lam yaku ma’ahu shay` (3x) – wa al ana kama kan.

There was Allah, and nothing else besides Him – and even now He is as He was.

(2)
هُوَ الْحَقُ الْمُبِينُ – هُوَ الْحَقُ الْيَقِينُ – لَا يَبْقىٰ بَعَدَهُ مِنْ بَاطِلٍ ط
hua_l haqqu_lmubin hua_l haqqu_lyaqin (3x) – la yabqa ba’dahu min batilin.

He is the Real Apparent, He is the Real of Certainty – after that nothing false can subsist.

(3)
هُوَ الْحَيُّ – هُوَ الدَّائِمُ – لَا يَمُتُ أَبَدًا – كُلُّ مَنْ سِوَاهُ هُوَ فَانٍ ط
hua_lhayyu hua_dda`im la yamutu abadan (3x) – kullu man siwahu hua fan

He is the Living, He is the Eternal, He never dies – everything besides Him is in obliteration.

(4)
هُوَ نُورُ الْأَرْضِ وَكُلِّ سَمَاءٍ – يَهْدِي لِنُورِهِ مَنْ يَشَاءُ ط
hua nuru_lardi wa kulli ssama (3x) – yahdi linurihi man yasha.

He is the Light of the Earth and all the celestial worlds – He guides to His Light, whom He wishes.

      Alhamdulillah sidi Yusuf, our apologies for the delay in reply. I believe Shaykh Harun might have recorded it before, so let us check and we’ll upload it if there is a recording.

      Thank you for the reminder!
