Ĥadāyiq e Bakh’shish
Gardens of Salvation

The collection of the Imām’s devotional poetry in the praise of the Prophet ﷺ and other hymns in two volumes.[1] The first volume contains 80 poems and 8 quatrains; the second volume contains 39 poems and 13 quatrains. It is beautiful, sublime and a most eloquent anthology of the Prophet’s ﷺ praise in Urdu. This is a showcase of the Imāms poetical talent and his command of Arabic, Persian and Urdu. It includes the famous Ode of Salutation or the Salām; its popularity in the Subcontinent and the diaspora is no less than that of Qaşīdah Burdah among Sunni communities worldwide. Every religious gathering of Sunnis ends with this beautiful Salām:

muşţafā jān e raĥmat pey lākhoñ salām
shamá e bazm e hidāyat pey lākhoñ salām

[1] A third volume was published posthumously, but it was not compiled by Alahazrat.
