The Clarification of Wills in the Forms of Acts of Worship - Volume 1 - Habib Eid Al-Saleh

and birds sing upon the arak trees And upon my master al-Habib is peace

from a lover who almost flies out of longing

And its conclusion is the musk of the elegy for the monotheist, the erudite, the perfect scholar, the profoundly learned, the expert, the narrator of Hadith, the insightful critic, the venerated Habib 'Id al-Salih of the family of Yusuf Bashman—may God Almighty sanctify his pure spirit, cover him with His mercy and pleasure, and grant him the satisfaction of His pardon and beneficence.

He is the author of shining pearls, precious gems, rare chronicles, truthful hadiths, ripe fruits, and blooming flowers. It is composed by the luminous scholar and poet, Sheikh Muhammad Hamdan al-Khayr—may God reward him with the best reward, and all the believers.

For you are the shining, clear proofs (al-Bayyinat al-Ghurr)¹.

Footnotes

¹The one in need [of God], Sami' Hasan, says: I published the second poem ("Those shining, clear proofs"), as well as all the poems that the researcher Professor Munir Hamdan included in their entirety in his introduction... And since I included them at the end of "Manshur al-Shi'ah", "Al-Dalail al-Husna", and "Al-'Aqidah al-Diniyyah", I did not place them here so that the introduction does not become overly long. So I contented myself with what I mentioned, and due to its fame among the brethren.
