The Dīwān of Shaykh Ṣāliḥ al-Jaʿfarī

“Love of the Prophet cures me of my selfish desires,
Guiding me to Allāh’s pleasure, reaching the lofty heights of it and higher.
Love of the Prophet is īmān; and accompanying it—
Is the Prophet’s praise; the Dīn increases for those who commit!”

The Shaykh authored twelve volumes of poetry, dealing with many subjects, ranging from the Remembrance and Magnificence of Allāh (ﷻ), advice for the one traversing the spiritual path to Allāh, exalting the excellence of the Beloved (ﷺ) and the Ahl al-Bayt (Allāh be pleased with them) and the virtues of the Path’s litanies and ṣalawāt.
