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.** مَدِينَةُ مَاحِي الْكُفْرِ وَالْعَارِ وَالرِّجْسِ / مَدَى الدَّهْرِ فِيهَا قُرَّةُ الْعَيْنِ وَالنَّفْـسِ

_Madīnatu māḥi-l kufri wa-l ʿāri wa-r rijsi / madā-d dahri fīhā qurratu-l ʿayni wa-n nafsi_

The city of the Eraser of disbelief, shame, and impurity; throughout time, in it is the delight of the eye and the soul.

**2.** تَذَكَّرْتُهَــــــا وَالْحَــــالُ أَنِّـــي مُخَيِّــمٌ / بِبَارِيسَ أَنْحُوهَا لِأَمْحُو بِهَا رِجْسِــي

_Tadhakkartuhā wa-l ḥālu annī mukhayyimun / bi-Bārīsa anḥūhā li-amḥū bihā rijsī_

I remembered it while I was staying in Paris, heading toward it to erase my impurity through it.

**3.** أَرَانِي إِذَا مَا جِئْتُ طَيْبَةَ زَائِــرًا / يُقَرِّبُنِي قُرْبًا يَتِــــمُّ بِـــهَا أُنْسِــي

_Arānī idhā mā ji’tu Ṭaybata zā’irā / yuqarribunī qurban yatimmu bihā unsī_

I see that if I ever come to Tayba (Medina) as a visitor, he (the Prophet) brings me so near that my intimacy becomes complete.

**4.** أَ أَكْرَمَ خَلْـــقِ اللّٰهِ أَحْمَــــدَ مَا تَــرَى / لِزَوْرٍ خَلاَ مِنْ كُلِّ مَعْنًى وَمِنْ حِسِّ

_A-akrama khalqi-llāhi Aḥmada mā tarā / li-zawrin khalā min kulli maʿnan wa min ḥissi_

O most noble of Allah's creation, Ahmad, what do you see for a visitor who is void of all meaning and spiritual sense?

**5.** وَإِنَّكَ مُخْتَـــــارُ الْإِلَــــهِ وَمَلْجَــأُ / الْعَوَالِمِ مِنْ جِنٍّ خَفِيٍّ وَمِنْ إِنْــسِ

_Wa innaka mukhtāru-l ilāhi wa malja’u / al-ʿawālimi min jinnin khafiyyin wa min insi_

Indeed, you are the chosen of God and the refuge of the worlds, of the hidden jinn and of mankind.

**6.** عَظِيمٌ عَظِيمُ الْخُلْقِ وَالْجُودِ وَالْعَطَا / بِهِ زَالَ هَمِّي ثُمَّ كَسْرِي كَذَا بُؤْسِي

_ʿAẓīmun ʿaẓīmu-l khulqi wa-l jūdi wa-l ʿaṭā / bihi zāla hammī thumma kasrī kadhā bu’sī_

Great, great in character, generosity, and giving; through him, my worry, my brokenness, and my misery vanished.

**7.** وَإِنْ دَهِشَ الْأَقْطَابُ يَوْمًا بِمَشْهَـــدٍ / أَرَاهُ فَيُعْلِينِي إِلَى أَعْظَــمِ الْكُرْسِــي

_Wa in dahi-sha-l aqṭābu yawman bi-mashhadin / arāhu fa-yuʿlīnī ilā aʿẓami-l kursī_

Even if the spiritual poles (Aqtab) were to be dazed one day by a station I witness, he elevates me to the greatest throne.

**8.** وَهَبْتَ لِكُــــــلِّ الْمَادِحِيـــنَ شَفَاعَـةً / وَهَلْ يَقْبَلُ الْمَحْمُودُ تَشْفِيعَهُمْ لَيْسِي

_Wahabta li-kulli-l mādiḥīna shafāʿatan / wa hal yaqbalu-l maḥmūdu tashfīʿahum laysī_

You granted intercession to all the praisers; and would the Praiseworthy one (the Prophet) ever reject their intercession for me?

**9.** عَلَى عِوَجِي أَرْجُو عُمُومَ شَفَاعَـــةِ / الْأَمِينِ لِمَنْ يَهْوَى الْعُبَيْدَ مِنَ الْإِنْسِ

_ʿAlā ʿiwajī arjū ʿumūma shafāʿati / al-amīni li-man yahwa-l ʿubayda mina-l insi_

Despite my crookedness, I hope for the general intercession of the Trustworthy one for those among mankind who love this humble servant.

**10.** عَلَيْــــكَ صَــــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُـــمَّ سَلاَمُــهُ / فَأَمْرُكَ مَقْبُولٌ عَلَى الْعَيْنِ وَالــرَّأْسِ

_ʿAlayka ṣalātu-llāhi thumma salāmuhu / fa-amruka maqbūlun ʿala-l ʿayni wa-r ra’si_

Upon you be the blessings of Allah and then His peace; for your command is accepted with utmost honor and respect.

**11.** دَعَوْتَ إِلَــى التَّوْحِيـــــدِ لِلَّهِ وَحْــدَهُ / فَكُلٌّ سِوَاهُ فِي انْمِحَاءٍ وَفِي طَمْسِ

_Daʿawta ila-t tawḥīdi lillāhi waḥdahu / fa-kullun siwāhu fī-nmḥā’in wa fī ṭamsi_

You called to the Monotheism of Allah alone; for everything besides Him is in a state of vanishing and erasure.

**12.** هُوَ الْكُلُّ مِنْهُ الْكُــــلُّ لاَ رَبَّ غَيْــرُهُ / فَمَا ثَمَّ مِنْ كُفْءٍ وَلاَ ثَمَّ مِنْ عَكْـــسِ

_Huwa-l kullu minhu-l kullu lā rabba ghayruhu / fa-mā thamma min kuf’in walā thamma min ʿaksi_

He is the All, and from Him is the all; there is no Lord but Him, and there is no equal, nor any opposite.

**13.** عَلَيْـــــكَ صَــــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُـــمَّ سَلاَمُــهُ / تُحَرِّرُنَا مِنْ كُلِّ بَطْشٍ وَمِنْ حَبْسِ

**14.** عَلَيْــــكَ صَــــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُـــمَّ سَلاَمُــهُ / لِأُصْبِحَ مَيْمُونًا حَيَاتِي كَذَا أُمْسِـــي

**15.** عَلَيْـــــكَ صَـــــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُــــــمَّ سَلاَمُـــهُ / تَجَافَيْتُ عَنْ أَهْلِي وَصَحْبِي وَعَنْ جِنْسِي

_ʿAlayka ṣalātu-llāhi thumma salāmuhu / tajāfaytu ʿan ahlī wa ṣaḥbī wa ʿan jinsī_

Upon you be the blessings of Allah and then His peace; I have distanced myself from my family, my companions, and my kin for you.

**16.** عَلَيْــــــــكَ صَــــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُـــمَّ سَلاَمُــهُ / يَتِمُّ الشِّفَا مِنْ كُلِّ بَأْسٍ وَمِنْ طَمْـــسِ

_ʿAlayka ṣalātu-llāhi thumma salāmuhu / yatimmu-sh shifā min kulli ba’sin wa min ṭamsi_

Upon you be the blessings of Allah and then His peace; through which healing from every hardship and erasure is completed.

**17.** عَلَيْــــــكَ صَـــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُـــمَّ سَلاَمُــهُ / سَرَيْنَا وَوَافَيْنَاكَ خَيْرَ بَنِي حُمْــسِ

Upon you be the blessings of Allah and then His peace; we traveled by night and reached you, O best of the brave.

**18.** عَلَيْـــــــكَ صَـــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُـــمَّ سَلاَمُــهُ / فَمِنْكَ عِلاَجِي مَرْهَمَ الْقَلْبِ وَالنَّفْــسِ

_ʿAlayka ṣalātu-llāhi thumma salāmuhu / fa-minka ʿilājī marhama-l qalbi wa-n nafsi_

Upon you be the blessings of Allah and then His peace; for from you is my cure, the ointment of the heart and the soul.

**19.** عَلَيْـــــــكَ صَـــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُـــمَّ سَلاَمُــهُ / فَمِنْكَ عِلاَجِي مَرْهَمَ الْقَلْبِ وَالنَّفْــسِ

_ʿAlayka ṣalātu-llāhi thumma salāmuhu / fa-kullī li-khayri-l khalqi fī-l yawmi wa-l amsi_

Upon you be the blessings of Allah and then His peace; for my whole self belongs to the best of creation, today and yesterday.

**22.** عَلَيْـــــكَ صَـــــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُــــمَّ سَلاَمُــهُ / فَبُرْهَانُ حُبِّي فِيكَ أَوْضَحُ مِنْ شَمْسِ

_ʿAlayka ṣalātu-llāhi thumma salāmuhu / fa-burhānu ḥubbī fīka awḍaḥu min shamsi_
