i wanted to know the meaning of the following Dua. shukran.

watafat bina alanwar min kuli janibin wasal allah ala sayuduna muhammed bigadr azamat zatuka ya ahad

[Imam]

Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem

Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu,



Praise be to Allah the Almighty, and may He shower Endless Blessings, upon our Master, the Last Beloved Prophet (Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam).



Jazak-Allah for sending me the du'a, but unfortunately I could not work out what some of the meaning of the words was. Maybe, it was because the way they were spelt, or there may have been a spelling mistake. There were some parts of it, which could be clearly understood, like:


wasafat....means to depict, or represent.

bina...with us.

min kulli janibin....In every way, from every angle, from every direction. Here the 'min' means from, 'kulli' means every, and 'janibin' means direction

wasal Allah.....

'And Allah, send Blessings upon the Our Master Muhammad'

bigadr... Actually means with treachery, deciet, unlawfulness, according to the al-Mawrid dictionary. However, it could mean the low meaning that we have in ourselves, in that that is what we are like.

azmat... This means greatness. If it ends in 'ka' as it does in the du'a, then it could mean 'your greatness' i.e. Allah the Almighty.

Ya ahad... Ya means 'oh!' for the one who is near. In this case Allah the Almighty, as He is closer to us than our own jugular vein.


It is a very unusual du'a, as many people may not have come across it, as much as the other du'as. However, it does contain the blessings of the Beloved Prophet of Allah (Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam), which gives it all the credit that is due.


May Allah the Almighty, help us in sending Blessings upon Our Master, the Most Beloved Prophet (Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam), every day and every night of our lives, so that we are away from all the
calamities of this life, and the hereafter.
