What to expect

An uplifting evening of poetry & praise — remembering Allah, and sending ṣalawāt upon His Messenger ﷺ, in a beautiful and respectful manner.

Poetry in praise — from classical sources

• Poetry can contain wisdom: The Prophet ﷺ said: “Indeed, some poetry contains wisdom.” (Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī)
• Praise of the Prophet ﷺ was encouraged and supported: Ḥassān ibn Thābit رضي الله عنه would recite poetry in defence and praise of the Prophet ﷺ, and the Prophet ﷺ made duʿā’ for him: “O Allah, support him with the Holy Spirit (Rūḥ al-Qudus).” (Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī, Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim)
• A well-known example from the Sīrah: Kaʿb ibn Zuhayr رضي الله عنه recited a famous poem in the presence of the Prophet ﷺ (beginning “Bānat Suʿād”), and it was accepted — a classical example of dignified praise in the earliest generations. (mentioned in early Sīrah works and historical narrations)
