ELEGY AND PRAISE FOR THE PROPHET ﷺ BY SAFIYYAH BINT ABDUL MUTTALIB (May ALLĀH be pleased with her)
The Prophet ﷺ Safiyyah (May ALLĀH be pleased with her) loved each other very much because they were brought up together in the same house, Therefore, when the Prophet ﷺ away from this world, she was deeply shocked. The few verses of the elegy composed on the occasion is:
أَلَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كُنْتَ رَجَاءَنَا
Indeed, O Messenger of ALLĀH, you were our hope,وَكُنْتَ بِنَا بَرًّا وَلَمْ تَكُ جَافِياً
You were our benefactor and were not harsh.وَكُنْتَ رَحِيماً هَادِياً وَمُعَلَّما
You were merciful, a guide and a teacher,لَيَبْكِ عَلَيْكَ الْيَوْمَ مَنْ كَانَ بَاقِياً
May those who remain this day weep over your demise.فدًى لِرَسُولِ اللهِ أُمِّي وَخَالَتِي
As ransom for the Messenger of ALLĀH, my mother and my aunt,وَعَمِّي وَخَالِي ثُمَّ نَفْسِي وَمَالِيًا
And my paternal and maternal uncle, then myself and my wealth.وَلَو أَنَّ الدُّنيَا تَدومُ لِأهلها
And if the worldly life was continuous for its inhabitants,لَكان رَسولُ اللهِ حيًا وَباقيًا
The Messenger of ALLĀH would have been alive and eternal.وَلَكِنها تَفنَى ويَفنَى نَعيمُها
But it will perish along with its pleasures,وتَبقَى الذُّنوبُ والمَعاصِي كما هِيَ
And sins and disobedience will remain as it was ˹committed˺.وَلَوْ أَنْ رَبَّ النَّاسِ أَبْقَى نَبِيَّنا
Alas! Had the Lord of mankind spared our Prophet,سَعِدْنَا وَلَكِنْ أَمْرُهُ كَانَ مَاضِيًا
We would be joyous, but his matter was already decreed.عَلَيْكَ مِنَ اللَّهِ السَّلامُ تَحِيَّةً
May ALLĀH’s peace and greetings be upon you,وَأُدْخِلْتَ جَنَّاتِ مِنَ الْعَدْنِ رَاضِيَاً
And you be admitted to gardens of Eden.{Al-Mu’jam al-Kabir || Al-Tabarani}
