Arabic literature has known various forms of prophetic praises, most notably Burda, which is said to be the most famous praise poem in Arabic poetry, and has spread widely and translated into many languages such as Persian, Turkish, English and French, but its Arabic origin - with its music, pictures, words and meanings - remained distinctive among the generations of Arabic poetry. .
In addition to the prophetic burdah, Arabic poetry has also known the art of the Bedaiyat of the praises of the Prophet, regular poems on the Sea of Albacete that began in the Mamluk era, and the most famous poetry of the Mawlidiyyat, which commemorates the Prophet's birthday, which falls on 12 Rabi I of each Hijri year.
Burda Kaab bin Zuhair
The tradition of Burda's poems began with the veteran poet Ka'b ibn Zuhair ibn Abi Salma, who was said to have delivered the poem in the hands of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) asking for pardon.
He entered the Ka'b of Islam after the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) wasted his blood to harm Muslims with his hair, his exposure to their women, and the spelling of the Prophet, peace be upon him.
Ka'b ibn Zuhair's poem begins to spin on the habit of Arab poets at the time, and he opens it, saying:
Pant Suad Vkalby today pissed .. Loved by the impact was not beneficial
The happiness the day after the evacuation as they left .. Only the richest tip Ghaddou Makhoul
But the story does not end at this point, has become "Burda" a poetic tradition of the poets who organize the praises of the Prophet, and opposed by many poets on the rhyme itself, and quoted from their melodies, weights, images and artistic eloquence.
Ibn Zuhair says:
Alwashp seek Bjnbha and saying .. You, my son Abu Salma to be killed
He said every boyfriend I hoped .. No Alvink I am busy you
I said, let me set you free no father .. All that is estimated Rahman effect
He moves in his poem from flirting with happiness, to regret and apology, and then felt the wisdom and satisfaction to the extent, so that the Prophet praises eloquence and poetic dehydration, hoping for forgiveness for what happened:
I predicted that the Messenger of Allah promised me .. and forgiveness when the Messenger of God is hoped
Hey guidance that gave you the Koran Nafilat sermons and detail
Boussiri and its Durrieh planets
After Ka'b ibn Zuhair comes Sharaf al-Din ibn Hilal al-Senhaji, who was born in the village of "Bossir" in Beni Suef in Upper Egypt, about 608 to migrate.
In the era known for the great Sufis such as Abu Hassan al-Shazli and Abu Abbas al-Mursi and others, famous prophetic praises poetic and characterized by sobriety and beauty of expression and the power of passion.
In addition to his versatile poetry between praise and admonition, satire and complaint, Al-Boussiri is known for his lengthy poetry, in which the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) praised and was distinguished by its quality and eloquence compared to his other poems.
My Lord, peace and blessings always never .. For your lover the good of all creation
Do you remember the neighbors of the peace .. You mixed the blood of the eyeball
Burdah Al-Boussiri consists of about 160 houses, divided into ten parts started by innocent yarn and prophet's prophet, then warning of the whims of the soul, praise of the Holy Prophet, and the anniversary of his birth, and miracles, Isra and Miraj, and jihad of the Prophet, before he concludes with begging, intercession, communion and supplication. :
Mohammed Sayed universe and the two heavy and the two Arabs and Ajam
Our prophet is forbidden. No one is righteous in saying "no" to him or "yes".
Is the beloved, who please intercession .. For every horror of intrusion
Called to God Valmstmstokn him .. Hold on with an inextricable rope
He exceeded the prophets in creation and in creation .. He did not condemn him in science or generosity
All of the petitioner of the Messenger of Allah .. Rooms from the sea or a sip of the blood
After Bosayri became famous poem "approach Burda" to the Prince of Poets Ahmed Shawki, who opened her verses, saying:
Reem on the bottom between Alban and science .. The best shed my blood in the sacred months
The judiciary threw the eyes of the root of Asda
It also said in praise of the Prophet peace be upon him:
I kept the door of the prince of the prophets and who .. holds the key to the door of God seizes
Every virtue, charity and knowledgeable .. Between the recipient of it and committed
I commented from the praise strand dearest .. On the day is not proud of the genealogy and flesh
Muhammad Safwat al-Bari and his mercy .. And in order to God from creation and breeze
And the basin on the day of the apostles liquid .. When roses? And Gabriel El-Amine Azmi
Sunnah and Sunah horoscope .. The offense in the ark and light in science
Like Shawki, the great Egyptian poet Mahmoud Sami al-Baroudi spoke a poem he called "Uncovering the Cloud in Praise of the Master of the Nation", absorbing a long heritage of prophetic praises that became poetic and literary art in its own right.
Al-Baroudi started with the relative, bypassing the poetry of wisdom, and then took up the biography of the Prophet including the descent of revelation and invasions.
Or how to let me down after my name .. In his name in the sky of the throne respected
He also says:
And still the master of the universes upright .. To invite religion did not cool and did not block
Receives people in Bedouin and in urban .. Religion is published in plain and in science
Even the supporters responded to him and held .. Bblh the consent of the best Mutasim
Vstkmlt them minimum freshness .. And became religion in the collection of their complement
The people recognized Imad al-Haq and Astalmoa .. despair all mighty and Mustafa
How many of them shone Astar Dajih .. And how many dampened the breath of the competent
Badiatiyat and generators
In the era of the Mamluks who did not celebrate much Arabic poetry, poets in praise of the Prophet found a fertile room for competition and sophistication in the systems of the wonderful Arabic poems. She was known as "Budaiyat", a long poem in praise of the prophet from the sea of the simple and narrated broken meme, including what was written by Shihab al-Din al-Humaidi (died 1005 Hijra) under the name "hint Budaiya praise the intercessor", and organized in the praise of the best patron, to Jalaluddin Suyuti (deceased) Immigration in Cairo.
On the fringes of the praise of the praises, the annotations of the poems were known, and the "splitting" appeared in which the poet divides his home in two, such as quadrature, quintess, quadrature and so on.
Ibn Jaber Al-Andalusi had previously made this art by his magnificent poem "Al-Hilla Al-Sera in Praise of the Best of Rory".
Kindly descended and Ummm Lord of the nations .. And spread his praise and spread the best word
And put your tears and do every mastabr .. The right of those who walked and luck what on science
We are not a prophet to waste us .. descendant of glory sound offer respectable
The poet Safi al-Din al-Hali (d. 752 AH) is best known for his poems "Sufficient Budaiya in the Prophetic Praises", and may be one of the first to write the Budaiyat as well. He says in the poem "Firozj al-Subuh, O power of pity":
O the Seal of the Apostles, he sent the first, as well as the winner of the precedent
Gathered all the precious of their virtues .. From each community and parted
In Morocco, since the era of the sons of Marin, who ruled Morocco since the seventh century AH, has been famous poems Moulidia, which commemorates the birth of the Prophet and is characterized by ease of expression and light weight, and sing in the celebrations of the Prophet's birthday on the twelfth of the first spring of each year.
