Muhammad Khairu Khalqillah
Sollu ala rasulillah habibil mustafa
solatullah salamullah ala taha rasulillah
solatullah salamullah ala yasin habibillah

i have no words to describe you ya Rasulullah
So many alim have written about you
written so beautiful of you
so many of them have sung about you
so many have sollu alaika

i am but imperfect imperfect
but i pray that i may still be in your embrace
ya Rasulullah
i pray that i may be among those you love and miss
i pray that i may still be able to catch a glimpse of you
ya Rasulullah

ya Allah
please forgive me
my life is a struggle
and only You would understand

please guide me Ya Allah
please look at me Ya Rasulullah

a book. a legacy of my alma mater, i will hold on to it for ever if i can help it as it reminds me of the person i was shaped to be and am.

back in the 90s, there was a surge of interest in nasyid groups across the causeway. Raihan was the pioneer who managed to bring out nasyid and selawat into the radios and touched the hearts of many Muslims, of all ages. the children loved them, the adults loved them.

Raihan is one of the 'originals' and a fave of mine. Raihan has since performed many concerts and internationally. Barakallahu fikum.

i remember among the first selawat which was sung to me when i was a child by my mother and later in kindergarten was this nasyid Tala'al Badru Alayna. the older version which is imprinted in this mind and have loved it since.
Sheikh Mishary's version sounds more mysterious yet emotional and love the video...definitely attract the younger viewers now.





i miss this feeling of longing and love to you Ya Rasulullah. please bring me back to your love.

i stumbled upon maher zain while searching for some worthy videos i could show to my students last year and i feel in love with his song Always be There. it has been on repeat mode for quite some time in my classes last year to fill up the silence when students are doing groupworks or the sign of calm when class gets too rowdy.

my students love maher zain.

ala kulli hal...in remembrance of the Prophet, this is one of my favourite selawat/songs.

i miss the maulids we had, back in school, my beloved Madrasah Al-Maarif. it has been a tradition throughout the years, for us girls to have the maulid every year to celebrate the Prophet's birthday and it has been one of the best memories of my school years. i never wanted to miss any of the maulid.

i miss the voices of my ustazahs who had such great voice reciting the maulids. i miss the togetherness that binded us students. it's the beauty of it.

oh well, i hope to attend one this month. insya Allah. if only the mosque i'm working invites the asatizah who can lead selawat and zikir. i have no idea why they dont and what's wrong with having it? why cant it be a culture of the mosque?

despite the numerous videos out there in youtube, i have always loved the Qasidah Burdah.

remembrance

its the birth month of the Prophet. and i have a project to remember him.
