1. If you hope for nearness to your Lord,

    renew the remembrance of the best of prophets.

  2. Invoke blessings upon him at the start of every utterance

    and at its end, morning and evening.

  3. For Muhammad stands highest among all creation

    in rank, sovereignty, and exalted glory.

  4. The Banner of Praise shall be in his right hand,

    with all humanity beneath the banner.

  5. So speak of the proofs of his prophethood: in them lies

    a cure for discerning minds from every malady.

  6. Yet I shall not recount even ten of them—

    can brimming seas be emptied with buckets?

  7. So tell the listeners, “Pause, for this

    is a domain no endpoint can encompass.”

  8. The proofs spread across the earth cannot be numbered;

    so here before you are the proofs of heaven.

Sol 6.1
