King of Jinns

makes an entreaty for help in the court of the Beloved and Blessed Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, in Qasidah-e-Nu’man:

جُدۡلِيۡ بِجُوۡدِكَ وَ اَرۡضِنِيۡ بِرِضَاكَ

يَا اَكۡرَمَ الثَّقَلَيۡنِ يَا كَنۡزَ الۡوَرٰي

لِاَبِيۡ حَنِيۡفَةَ فِي الۡاَنَامِ سِوَاكَ

اَنَا طَامِعٌ بِالۡجُوۡدِ مِنۡكَ لَمۡ يَكُنۡ

Translation: O the one! Who is better than all humans and jinns and who is the treasure of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, please give me from what Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ has bestowed on you and make me happy like Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ has pleased you. I am a candidate for your shower of generosity. There is no one for Abu Hanifah in the entire creation except you.

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب           صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Imam Buseeri asked for help

Sayyiduna Imam Sharafuddin Buseeri رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has requested for help from the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم in his well-known ‘Qasidah Burdah’ and said:

سِوَاكَ عِنۡدَ حُلُوۡلِ الۡحَادِثِ الۡعَمَمِ

يَا اَكۡرَمَ الۡخَلۡقِ مَا لِيۡ مَنۡ اَلُوۡذُبِه

Translation: O You, the best of the Creation! I do not have anyone else except you, in whom I may get refuge, in the times of trouble. (Qasidah Burdah, pp. 36)
