The Mawlid is a joyous expression of the greatest blessing from Allah.
We take this blessed opportunity monthly to remind ourselves of the three sacred rights that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ requires from us, instilling in us a deep sense of respect and reverence.
-
– Marifah – Recognizing who the Messenger of Allah ﷺ is
-
– Muhabbah – Loving the Messenger of Allah ﷺ
-
– Ittiba’ – Obedience to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ
The second two (loving and obeying) are not entirely possible without genuinely recognizing the first – who the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was. This recognition enlightens us and deepens our knowledge of his teachings.
