Summary
Details

Among the masterpieces of Islamic devotional literature is Kamāl al-Faraḥ wa al-Surūr bi Mawlid Maẓhar al-Nūr by the eminent Moroccan scholar and jurist Shaykh Aḥmad ibn al-Ḥājj al-ʿIyāshī Sukayrij (1878-1944). Written at the turn of the 20th century while still a young man, this Mawlid reflects the author's deep erudition and spiritual insight, qualities that later made him one of the most celebrated scholars of North Africa and the wider ummah.

This work is not just a telling of the Prophet's ﷺ birth, but a rich work full of praise, narrations, and reflections that weave together love, reverence, and knowledge. It opens with exalted praises of Allah and His Messenger ﷺ, affirming that through the Prophet's coming into the world, happiness was perfected, grief lifted, and the doors of divine mercy opened. The text repeatedly emphasizes that all blessings and every form of felicity flow through him ﷺ, the Locus of Light and axis of existence.

The Mawlid also touches upon the Muḥammadan Reality, describing how the Prophet ﷺ was the primordial light created before time itself. Through poetic imagery and narrations, it details the spiritual veils, cosmic signs, and divine honors that surrounded his conception and birth. It describes how the heavens and earth rejoiced, disbelief trembled, and joy filled the hearts of the believers when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered the world.
