    1/8

    We once had a Teacher

    The Teacher of teachers,

    He changed the world for the betterAnd made us better creatures,

    Oh Allah weve shamed ourselves

    Weve strayed from Al-Mu'allim,

    Surely weve wronged ourselves

    What will we say in front him?

    Oh Mu'allim...

    ChorusHe was Muhammad salla Allahu 'alayhi

    wa sallam,

    Muhammad, mercy upon Mankind,He was Muhammad salla Allahu 'alayhi

    wa sallam,

    Muhammad, mercy upon Mankind,

    Teacher of all Mankind.

    Abal Qasim [one of the names of the

    Prophet]

    Ya Habibi ya Muhammad

    (My beloved O Muhammad)

    Ya Shafi'i ya Muhammad

    (My intercessor O Muhammad)

    Khayru khalqillahi Muhammad(The best of Allahs creation is

    Muhammad)

    Ya Mustafa ya Imamal Mursalina

    (O Chosen One, O Imam of the

    Messengers)

    Ya Mustafa ya Shafi'al 'Alamina

    (O Chosen One, O intercessor of the

    worlds)

    He prayed while others slept

    While others ate hed fast,

    While they would laugh he weptUntil he breathed his last,

    His only wish was for us to be

    Among the ones who prosper,

    Ya Mu'allim peace be upon you,

    Truly you are our Teacher,

    Oh Mu'allim..

    Chorus

    Ya Rasuli ya Muhammad

    (O My Messenger O Muhammad)

    Ya Bashiri ya Muhammad

    (O bearer of good news O Muhammad)

    'Ishqu Qalbi ya Muhammad

    (The love of my heart O Muhammad)

    Nuru 'Ayni ya Muhammad

    (Light of my eye O Muhammad)

    He taught us to be just and kind

    And to feed the poor and hungry,

    Help the wayfarer and the orphan child

    And to not be cruel and miserly,

    His speech was soft and gentle,

    Like a mother stroking her child,His mercy and compassion,

    Were most radiant when he smiled

    Prophet]

    Muhammad)

    (O Chosen One O Imam of the

    Messengers)

    worlds)

    (Come O servants of Allah)

    Ahibba Allah(O you who love Allah)

    Sallu 'ala an-Nabi

    (Send salutations to the Prophet)

    On a clear and moonlit night

    In the dark cave of Hira

    A man began to cry

    Oh Allah show me the light

    Tell me why I was created

    Where will I go after I die?

    Whats the purpose of this life

    Where people murder and lie?How can I stop their corruption?

    speak throughout my days)

    Jibra'il came to Hira

    He hugged Prophet Muhammad

    Until he thought he would die

    Chorus

    Allahu Allahu Allahu

    Allahu Allahu AllahuTruly He is the One

    He has no father or son

    Everything in creation was by Him begun

    With His infinite power anything could be done

    Ask Allah for His Pardon

    And youll enter the Garden

    Chorus

    Before Him there were none

    Of partners He has none

    He knows what is apparent and what is hiddenAll the fate of creation has already been written

    His Will is always done

    And can never be undone

    Chorus

    From amongst all humans

    Muhammad was chosen

    He was illiterate and he was an orphan

    Yet Allah sent him to those who were pagans

    Oh Allah let us drink

    From his hand in the fountain

    Chorus

    Ya Allah Youre the Sovereign

    Youre the Sultan of Sultans

    Please protect me from Shaytan and all of his

    treason

    Let him not with his whispers my iman ever weaken

    My only wish in this life

    Is to attain Your Pardon
