Mawlana Ilyas(rahmatullahi alayhi)

[akabirofdeoband]

The experts tell us 6 is the first perfect number “Mathematic”,
And Mawlana Ilyas probably wouldn’t disagree
But they based theirs on the subject, axiomatic
And he based his on the insight of spiritual clarity

The Big Bang may have been the initial explosion
From whence this matter has begun
But this time’s spirits were lit by his gumption
Divorcing our bodies from the dunya-such blessed scission

The light was burning in his eyes,
With which he lit the fire in our hearts,
|For he was of the prophetic inheritors,
A great one of the spiritual progenitors

Glittering pearls emerge from his lips,
Bottled musk like fragrance in transcripts
The malfuzat glow and perfume our gatherings
Light in these dark days of spiritual eclipse.

Purer than pure, Whiter than snow,
Sincerity like this in the age of nafs-like-Pharoah?
There’s serenity in his dhikr,without riya or show
Not a commercial venture or a spiritual disco

Not a temper tantrum driven political ideology
Not a dry text on academic theology
Living the sunnah in truth-not just talks on epistemology
The questioning angels can’t be fooled by terminology

He wrote nufoos and not nuqoosh,
He left his marks on souls not on paper
20th century’s dawah’s spiritual chauffeur
Driving to safety the Ummah from every saboteur



What need of equations or figures of charts,
This is alchemy where hearts can change hearts,
Widen this Qabdh into Bast’s dilatation,
Exchange this perdition for eternal salvation

He could have made a static school,
Of ivory-tower elitists nodding their heads
Knowledge without action is as load to the mule
Just qeela wa qaal, he said and ‘twas said.

I’laa kalimatulla!!!
No more Krishna, no more karma
Make way for the mujaddid- move over Shankara
Freud and Kafka overpowered by the Sunnah

There’s no room for hippie quasi-sufi views,
The Sufism here is potent for those that know Truth’s avenues,
The best of stories-the Quran out-narrates
Previous adultered tales-truth mixed with fakes

Unifying tribes of the earth who were covered with fitan,
This effort has come from China to Britain,
Paradise awaits, undreamt unimagined,
This work is a means to be strengthened and fashioned.

Oh why do you not talk about the Ummah's politics oh Babes of Mawlana Ilyaas's crib ?
CNN and Foreign affairs is filled with machivellian chatter and many a fib,
But We say like Unto Abraha Said the qurayshi Abdul Mutallib,
Return to me my camels for I am their master,
As for the Kaaba it shall be protected By Al Hafeez from distaster

Don't underestimate these prayers-they will change history
Physics and political science professors don't understand metaphysics
There's a world beyond the heavens that can change these worldly equations,
God can flip-flop the intellects of Harvard through these spiritual occasions

E might equal m c squared
But that shouldn't stop you being scared,
These mundane events reflect our actions and how we have fared,
The fasaad has spread from what our hands have prepared

Your university professor can't teach you these facts
The 5 senses are blocked and beyond it can't pass
they're Lost , they're stuck don't you see the impasse
Rejoice, Rejoice, Folk of Mawlana Ilyas!

From Global Tawbah comes political change,
Lets be true men who in this age appear strange,
Wrong is right and right is wrong
In an orwellian world, on the Sunnah let's be strong
Ghuraba - men of virtue, to Jannah shall belong
