Harfun Nuun · حَرْفُ النُّون

From Ad-Dawaawiinu s-Sitta · الدواوين الست by Sheikh Ibrahim Nyass

نُقَلِّــدُ طَــــهَ الْهَاشِمِـــيَّ وَنُنْفِــــذُ
أَوَامِرَهُ فِي الْكَوْنِ وَالْكَــوْنَ نُنْقِــذُ

Nuqallidu Ṭāhā-l hāshimiyya wa nunfidhu
awāmirahu fī-l kawni wa-l kawna nunqidhu

We follow Taha the Hashemite and we carry out his commands in the universe, and we rescue the universe.

أَلَمْ تَدْرِ أَنَّ الْهَاشِمِيَّ مُسَامِـــرِي
وَمُقْتَبَسِي مَهْمَا تَحَيَّــــرَ جِهْبِــذُ

Alam tadri anna-l hāshimiyya musāmirī
wa muqtabasī mahmā taḥayyara jihbidhu

Do you not know that the Hashemite is my nocturnal companion and my source of light whenever a great scholar is bewildered?

أَلَـــــمْ تَــدْرِ أَنَّ الْهَاشِمِـــيَّ مُسَــاعِــدِي
إِذَا أَبْرَمُوا الْحِرْمَــــانَ يَوْمًـــا وَنَفَّــذُوا

Alam tadri anna-l hāshimiyya musāʿidī
idhā abramū-l ḥirmāna yawman wa naffadhū

Do you not know that the Hashemite is my helper when they decree deprivation one day and execute it?

أَلَـــــمْ تَــــدْرِ أَنَّ الْهَاشِمِــيَّ مُدَافِـــعٌ
عَنِ الْعَبْدِ مَهْمَا قِيلَ فَارْمُوهُ وَانْبِـذُوا

Alam tadri anna-l hāshimiyya mudāfiʿun
ʿani-l ʿabdi mahmā qīla farmūhu wa-nbidhū

Do you not know that the Hashemite is a defender of the servant, no matter what is said: "Cast him away and reject him"?

أَلَمْ تَــــدْرِ أَنَّ الْهَاشِمِــيَّ مُؤَيِّـــــدِي
إِذَا دَهِشَ الْأَقْطَابُ إِذْ قِيلَ فَانْفُــذُوا

Alam tadri anna-l hāshimiyya mu’ayyidī
idhā dahisha-l aqṭābu idh qīla fa-nfudhū

Do you not know that the Hashemite is my supporter when the spiritual poles are dazed as it is said: "Then pass through"?

لَقَدْ فَازَ أَحْبَابِي جَنَوْا غَرْسَ حُبِّهِـــمْ
مَتَى قِيلَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ غَـــــوْثٌ وَمُنْقِــذُ

Laqad fāza aḥbābī janaw gharsa ḥubbihim
matā qīla Ibrāhīmu ghawthun wa munqidhu

My beloveds have indeed succeeded; they reaped the planting of their love when it was said: "Ibrahim is a succour and a rescuer."

وَقَدْ قَالَ مَمْدُوحِي فَإِنِّي مُفَــــوِّضٌ
أُمُــورِي إِلَى بَرْهَـــامَ فَهْوَ الْمُنَفِّـــذُ

Wa qad qāla mamdūḥī fa-innī mufawwiḍun
umūrī ilā Barhāma fahuwa-l munaffidhu

And the one I praise has said: "I am delegating my affairs to Barham, for he is the executor."

عَلَيْـــــهِ صَــــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُـــمَّ سَلاَمُــهُ
وَآلٍ وَصَحْبٍ دَارَكُونِـي وَأَنْقَذُوا

ʿAlayhi ṣalātu-llāhi thumma salāmuhu
wa ālin wa ṣaḥbin dārakūnī wa anqadhū

Upon him be the blessings of Allah and then His peace, and upon the Family and Companions who reached me and rescued me.
