Darood Taj In English Translation

“O Allah! Send prayers upon our master and patron Muhammad, the possessor of the crown, the Mi’raj, the Buraq, and the flag, the repeller of hardships, epidemics, droughts, diseases, and pain. His name is written, exalted, combined, and engraved upon the tablet and pen. The master of both Arabs and non-Arabs, whose body is sanctified, fragrant, pure, and illuminated in the House and the Sanctuary.

He is the bright sun, the full moon of the dark night, the foremost in loftiness, the light of guidance, the cave of refuge for mankind, the lantern in darkness. He is of beautiful character, the intercessor for nations, the possessor of graciousness and generosity.

Allah is his protector, Gabriel his servant, the Buraq his mount, the Mi’raj his voyage, the Lote Tree of the Uppermost Limit his station, two bows’ length or nearer the object of his quest; that which is sought is that which he desires, and that which he desires is that which he finds.

He is the master of the Messengers, the Seal of the Prophets, the intercessor of sinners, the comforter of strangers, the mercy for the worlds, the delight of divine lovers, the object of yearning, the sun of the gnostics, the lamp for travellers upon the path to Allah, the lantern of those brought near, the lover of the poor, the strangers, and the destitute.

The master of the two weighty things (humans and Jinn), the Prophet of the two sanctuaries, the Imam of the two Qiblas, our means of salvation in both abodes, the one at two bows length, the beloved of the Lord of the two Easts and the two Wests, the grandfather of Imam Hasan and Imam Husayn, our protector and the protector of the two worlds, the Father of Qasim, Muhammad, the son of Abdullah, a light from the light of Allah. O you who yearns for the light of his beauty, invoke abundant blessings and peace upon him, his family, and companions”.
