Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم made Du’a: ‘O Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ! Undoubtedly, ‘Ali [رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ] was busy obeying You and Your Rasool [صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم], therefore, make the sun rise back so that ‘Ali offers ‘Asr Salah.’

Sayyidatuna Asma Bint-e-‘Umays رَضِیَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَنْهَا has stated: ‘I have seen it with my own eyes that the sun that had already set, rose back and sunshine spread on the mountains’ peaks and on the earth everywhere.’

Dear Islamic brothers! Let’s listen to the Zikr of some beautiful moments of Meelad of Mustafa صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. When the Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم came into the world, what date was it, which day was it, what were the circumstances? Let’s listen and refresh our faith!

It was the 12^th of the month Rabi’-ul-Awwal and the day was Monday, Sayyiduna ‘Abdul Muttalib رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ, the grandfather of the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم went to sacred Haram, Sayyidatuna Aaminah رَضِیَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَنْهَا was alone at home because her mother-in-law and husband had already passed away and her father-in-law was busy performing Tawaf of Ka’bah. She wished that some women from the family of ‘Abd-e-Manaaf had been with her and then what she saw was that her home was suddenly crowded with very beautiful women. She رَضِیَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَنْهَا asked them, ‘Ladies, Who are you? From where have you come and why have you come?’ One of them spoke, ‘I am Hawwa, Umm-ul-Bashar, the mother of all humans, the wife of Aadam        عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام’, another spoke and said, ‘I am Aasiyah, the wife of Pharaoh’, the third one spoke, ‘I am Maryam, the mother of ‘Isa Ruhullah عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام and all other women are Houris [of Paradise]. Today Muhammad صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم is about to arrive. We have come to welcome him and serve you. O Aaminah! Look, there are celebrations of the angels as far as you can see, the Houris are in the room and angels are in the home and their lines are stretching to the sky.’

The Beloved and Blessed Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم came into the world already circumcised, with his umbilical cord already cut and eyes [darkened with kohl]. He صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم came into the world free from all kinds of filth, or rather to purify [people of the entire world] from all kinds of filth. A voice
