Multazim Per Dua

Driven by Abrahim's post regarding the Jalwaa - e - Janaan video from Junaid Jamshed, I thought it well - suited that another of JJ's video be indicated, specially when we now have the last less than ten days remaining of the holy month of Ramadan.

This video is titled "Multazim Per Dua". It's not a Hamd, neither a Naat; but it's a supplication made to Allah by an ordinary human who has realized the worthlessness of the life in this world and now seeks Allah's Forgiveness and Guidance.

The beautiful verses in here have been composed by Mufti Taqi Usmani, a well - respected religious scholar. I thought I'd have also included in here a writeup attempting to translate the supplication from Urdu to English for the larger benefit of readers who don't understand Urdu, but have decided against it as the depth of the feelings which make this audio worth a special listening just cannot be captured in a translation. Frankly speaking, whenever I listen to it, my eyes are filled with tears because it really brings out the most inner feelings and prayers and the manner of supplication which one would want to portray oneself when praying but just fails in it.
