Praise be to Allah for Islam

الحمد لله على الإسلام

1. Praise be to Allah for Islam
His blessing is the best blessing

١. الحَمدُ لِلَّهِ عَلى الإِسلامِ
إِنعامُهُ مِن أَفضَلِ الإِنعامِ

2. He settled us in the Sacred Land
And distinguished us with Ahmad the praiseworthy

٢. أَسكَنَنا بِالبَلَدِ الحَرامِ
وَاِختَصَّنا بِأَحمَدَ التِّهامي

3. So he came to us with mighty scriptures
From the Presence of the Overseeing, the All-Knowing

٣. فَجاءَنا بِصُحُفٍ جِسامِ
مِن لَدُنِ المُهَيمِنِ العَلّامِ

For people, with satisfaction and coercion

٤. فيها بَيانُ الحِلِّ وَالحَرامِ
لِلنّاسِ بِالإِرضاءِ وَالإِرغامِ

5. And the order of prayers and fasting
And prayers for relatives

٥. وَالأَمرُ بِالصَلاةِ وَالصِيامِ
وَبِالصَلاتِ لِذَوي الأَرحامِ

6. And refuting an arrogant misguided people
Whose religion is idol worship

٦. وَقَدعِ قَومٍ ضِلَّةٍ طَغامِ
دينُهُمُ عِبادَةُ الأَصنامِ

7. And they have seen in the folly of dreams
That they are rightly guided

٧. وَقَد رَأَوا مِن سَفَهِ الأَحلامِ
أَنَّهُمُ مِنهُ عَلى اِستِقامِ

8. And there is no stability except with Allah
And whoever desires anything else is misguided

٨. وَما بِغَيرِ اللَهِ مِن قِوامِ
وَمَن يَرُم سِواهُ مِن مَرامِ

9. He will suffer for it for all time
And reach a scorching searing Fire

٩. يَحَر بِهِ عَلى مَدى الأَيّامِ
وَيَصلَ ناراً مِن حَميمٍ حامِ

10. How they mobilized against the Master of Mankind
With spearmen, archers and horsemen

١٠. كَم نَدَبوا لِسَيِّدِ الأَنامِ
مِن رامِحٍ وَنابِلٍ وَرامِ

11. And bold warriors on the day of turmoil
Stubbornly defending their disbelief

١١. وَجاسِرٍ يَومَ الوَغى مِقدامِ
مُثابِراً عَن كُفرِهِ يُحامي

12. Openly with no shame
By Al-Lat and Al-Uzza without modesty

١٢. مُجاهِراً لَيسَ بِذي اِكتِتامِ
بِاللاتِ وَالعُزّى بِلا اِحتِشامِ

13. Until when they were united
Like beads arranged on a string

١٣. حَتّى إِذا كانوا مِنَ التِئامِ
كَخَرزٍ جُمِعنَ في نِظامِ

14. He struck them with Hamza the steadfast
And the son of Abu Talib, the firm

١٤. رَماهُمُ بِحَمزَةَ الهُمامِ
وَاِبنِ أَبي طالِبٍ اِلضِرغامِ

15. The subduing, decisive, awesome one
Of outstanding merit and lofty glory

١٥. الباتِرِ المُهَنَّدِ الصَمصامِ
ذي الفَضلِ وَالمَجدِ الرَفيعِ السامي

16. So they were afflicted with the worst torment
And judged with the ugliest judgement

١٦. فَأُولِموا بِأَوجَعِ الإيلامِ
وَأُحكِموا بِأَقبَحِ الإِحكامِ

17. And the matter of dividing the spoils
Among the best of elders and youth

١٧. وَأَصبَحَت خَطرَةُ الِقتِسامِ
بِخَيرِ ما كَهلٍ وَما غُلامِ

18. Became for the prayers of the Imam
Who distinguished him with the best peace

١٨. صَلّى عَلَيهِ اللَهُ مِن إِمامِ
وَخَصَّهُ بِأَفضَلِ السَلامِ

19. And I say at the end of this speech
Glory be to my Lord, in Him is my trust

١٩. وَقُلتُ عِندَ مُنتَهى الكَلامِ
سُبحانَ رَبّي وَبِهِ اِعتِصامي
