A famous poem about the love of the Holy Prophet (Peace be upon Him) recited by Muslims throughout the world, is the famous Qasida Burda or Poem of the Cloak, written by an Egyptian Sufi scholar, Imam Sharaf ad-Din al-Busiri (may the mercy of Allah be upon him)
The poem was composed around 1260-1268 C.E. and praises the Prophet in the very most beautiful way. Numerous are the benefits of this poem as have been witnessed and experienced by many pious believers since it was composed by the noble Imam Busiri (may themercy of Allah be upon him). The Imam himself had recovered from paralysis, through the blessings of the poem.
The writer Hazrat Imaam Shara-fud-deen Al Busairi (may Allah be pleased with him) had become paralysed.His doctors and physicians gave up all hope of his recovery. Eventually in this state of complete helplessness and despair, he composed this poem expressing the grandeur and excellence of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon Him), using this as his sole means of asking Allah Ta'aala to cure him from his illness.
He isolated himself in a quiet place one Thursday night and with complete devotion, concentration and sincerity began reciting this poem. While reciting it sleep overcame him. He had a vision of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon Him) in which he told the Holy Prophet his illness whereupon the Prophet (peace be upon Him) passed his blessed hand over Imaam Busairis body. Through the barakat and blessing of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon Him), Allah Ta'aala granted him complete cure from his paralysis.
When he awoke he found a scarf or shawl on his body which he had seen placed on his paralyzed limbs by the Holy Prophet (peace be upon Him), This resulted in the poem being named Qasidah Burdah (The Poem of the Cloak).
If you read the Qasida Burda you will find verses that praise the Prophet
verses that send greetings, and others that send blessings on the Prophet.
