# Harful Qaaf · حَرْفُ الْقَاف

From [Ad-Dawaawiinu s-Sitta · الدواوين الست](https://qasaaid.zayfir.app/app/qasaaid/691f292bc02b144934a4ec1f) by [Sheikh Ibrahim Nyass](https://qasaaid.zayfir.app/app/authors/69172463686829cc1d041df5)

**1.** قَدِ اسْتَوْجَبَ الشَّنَارَ وَالْعَـــارَ وَالْمَقْتَـا / فَتًى رَامَ فَصْلَ الْوَصْلِ أَوْ حَاوَلَ الْبَتَّا

_Qadi-stawjaba-sh shanāra wa-l ʿāra wa-l maqta / fatan rāma faṣla-l waṣli aw ḥāwala-l batta_

He has surely deserved ignominy, shame, and detestation—the youth who sought to sever the spiritual union or attempted its cutting.

**2.** فَإِنِّيَ مَنْ أَهْوَى وَحَــــقِّ صِفَاتِــهِ / بِرَغْمِ حَسُــــودٍ أَوْ مُنَـــاوٍ لَنَا بَتَّــا

_Fa-inniya man ahwā wa ḥaqqi ṣifātihi / bi-raghmi ḥasūdin aw munāwin lanā batta_

For I am the one I love, by the truth of his attributes, despite every envious one or opponent who has completely cut us off.

**3.** قَدْ أَحْبَبْتُــهُ حَتَّــــى أَرَانِــيَ كُنْتُــهُ / وَرَبِّيَ لَمْ يَخْلُــقْ مَكَانًا وَلاَ وَقْتَــا

_Qad aḥbabtuhu ḥattā arānī kuntuhu / wa rabbī lam yakhluq makānan walā waqta_

I loved him until he showed me that I was him, while my Lord had not yet created place or time.

**4.** فَجَاوَرْتُ طَـــهَ أَحْمَدَ الْبَدْرَ نَاصِرِي / وَحَاوَرَهُ شِعْرِي وَجَاوَرَنِي بَيْتَــــا

_Fa-jāwartu Ṭāhā Aḥmada-l badra nāṣirī / wa ḥāwarahu shiʿrī wa jāwaranī bayta_

So I neighbored Taha Ahmad, the full moon, my helper; my poetry conversed with him and he neighbored me in my house.

**5.** بَـــــدَا لِــي مُحَيَّــــاهُ حَبَانِـــي وِصَالَــهُ / وَمَنْ نَالَ سِرَّ الْمُصْطَفَى أَكْثَرَ الصَّمْتَا

_Badā lī muḥayyāhu ḥabānī wiṣālahu / wa man nāla sirra-l muṣṭafā akthara-ṣ ṣamta_

His countenance appeared to me and he gifted me his union; and whoever attains the secret of the Chosen one increases in silence.

**6.** وَإِنِّيَ مَوْصُـــولٌ وَأَحْمَـــــدُ عَائِــدٌ / إِلَيَّ قُبَيْلَ الْكَـــوْنِ وَالْكَــوْنُ مَا شَتَّــا

_Wa inniya mawṣūlun wa Aḥmadu ʿā’idun / ilayya qubayla-l kawni wa-l kawnu mā shatta_

And I am connected, and Ahmad is returning to me since before the universe, while the universe was not yet dispersed.

**7.** عَلَيْــــــهِ صَـــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُــــــمَّ سَلاَمُـــهُ / وَآلٍ وَصَحْبٍ عَمَّرُوا الْوَقْتَ وَالْبَيْتَا

_ʿAlayhi ṣalātu-llāhi thumma salāmuhu / wa ālin wa ṣaḥbin ʿammarū-l waqta wa-l bayta_

Upon him be the blessings of Allah and then His peace, and upon the Family and Companions who filled the time and the House.
