A powerful & moving rendition of the Qasida Burda of Imam Busiri by Shaykh Diya’ of Amman, Jordan. Chapters 1 & 2.

The Qasida Burda is one of the greatest poems ever written in praise of the Beloved Messenger of Allah (peace & blessings be upon him & his folk), and is recited with love and yearning by lovers of the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) across the world. Numerous scholars have written commentaries on it.

Shaykh Abdal Hakim Murad has a beautiful translation of it, called The Mantle Adorned. See: http://www.mantleadorned.com/

Shaykh Hamza Yusuf translated and supervised a moving rendition in Maghribi style: The Burda of al-Busiri - The Fez Singers.

    Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuhu

    Qasidat al-Burda is an ode of praise for the Islamic prophet Muhammad(S.A.W) composed by the eminent Sufi, Imam al-Busiri of Egypt. The poem, (”Celestial Lights in Praise of the Best of Creation”), is famous mainly in the Sunni Muslim world. It is entirely in praise of Muhammad (S.A.W), who cured the poet of paralysis by appearing to him in a dream and wrapping him in a mantle or scarf.
