said I came to you when I was a young man. The first Hajj of the Shaykh was in 1937. Thats why he is addressing the Prophet (pbuh) in that poem by saying, I came to you when I was a young man. I came to you when I was 50. I came to you when I was old, and still my love is increasing day by if you love something and you get crazy in that love.) and my love, my craziness in that love is for you. My poems other than for you are forbidden. I remember that once, while the Shaykh was traveling to Mecca, and writing his poem to greet the Prophet (pbuh), one of the millionaires of the Nigerians was seated next to the Shaykh in the plane. He said Shaykh, could you mention my name in that poem? I am ready to pay 500 pounds [1,400 dollars?] for each verse it is mentioned in. The Shaykh said I am not making my poems for anyone but the Prophet (pbuh). That is why he said This poem is only addressed to you, other than for you is haram. Making my poem to honor anyone else other than you, is something that is forbidden. Unto you, otherwise my beard could never move. He said that all of his traveling, and all of his trips (in the path) are just to the Prophet (pbuh). Other than that, his beard could never move. And my tongue is chanting the poems for you while all my neighbors they are sleeping. He was using all of his nights, writing the poems to greet the Prophet (pbuh). Thats why he made all of these poems forbidden to anyone else other than the Prophet (pbuh). People were sleeping, and of all his nighttime he spent writing these .He said Coming back from that Holy Place, now I am in Ghana. All the area sleeps and my heart is still in that place. Shaykh Hassan cisse RDA I had an argument one-day, with an Arab man in Saudi. I was in Mecca going to Jeddah and there in the cab he greeted me. He said Where are you from? I said I am from Senegal. He said Do you know Shaykh Ibrahim Niasse? I said Yes, I know him. He said What do you know of him? I said Yes, I know him. He is one of the leaders of the Muslims, and of the big Scholars, and he spends his time calling for Islam and spreading knowledge. And he said And what? as if he was angry. I said: Briefly, my brother. He said Yes, no one will deny that Shaykh Ibrahim has spread knowledge and has brought into Islam thousands of people. But with all that, there is something which spoils his services for Islam. I said What is that? He said he loves the Prophet (pbuh) too much! I said Loving the Prophet (pbuh) too much? That spoils his work for Islam or makes it nicer? He said No! It spoils his work for Islam because he raised the Prophet (pbuh) to the level of Allah! I said Where did the Shaykh do this? He said In his poems. I said In which poem? In the one he made when he was here, and in it said to the Prophet (pbuh) When I was to leave and I went to the Prophet to say good-bye! good-bye! I couldnt move. My tears were coming down and my heart was bleeding. And the one he made in Africa, wherein he said Oh, I am sad today when Medina is far away from me. I just look like Yaqub when his son Yusuf was away from him. I said In which ones? He said In none of the other poems. These poems I have in my house in Mecca. I live on the street of Abu Lahab in Mecca. I will give you my address, and when you come back to Mecca come to my house. I will show you the poems. I said O.K. my brother, I agree with you that Shaykh Ibrahim loves the Prophet (pbuh) very much but in the Qur`an Allah has said Whoever obeys the Prophet (pbuh) has obeyed Allah. However, there is one verse in Qur`an that I dont understand because I am not an Arab. Maybe since you are Arab, you will explain this verse for me. He said What is that verse? Allah says in Suratul Taubah Wa-llahu wa Rasuluhu ahaqqu an yudurhu. [Sura 9, verse Cisse! Radiya-llahu anhu) He answered, Allah and His Prophet, He deserves to be satisfied. Shaykh said He (Allah) said: Allah and His Prophet, He mentioned two! Allah and His Messenger, deserves to be satisfied. He (Allah) mentioned two, and in the end He addressed One! That is not understood in the Arabic language. In the Arabic language you address two, you should refer to them as two. But here, He (Allah) mentioned Allah and the Prophet and referred to them as One! He said Oh my brother, it looks like Shaykh Ibrahim is from Senegal, and youre from Senegal. Thats why you are backing him up instead of telling me, that what satisfies Allah is the same thing that satisfies the Prophet, and what satisfies the Prophet is the same thing that satisfies Allah? It is not two different satisfactions! Thats why He (Allah) mentioned Allah, mentioned the Prophet, and referred to them as In Ghana, all the neighbors sleep and all my heart, is still in the sand where the Prophet (pbuh) is buried. Yesterday, I mentioned to you one of the Waliys, Shaykh Ahmadur Rafai. In his poems he said when he went to visit the Prophet (pbuh), Away from this land, I used to send my spirit on my behalf to kiss the earth where the Prophet has been buried,. Today, I come in person, bring out your hand so I may kiss it. And the Prophets hand came out for him and he kissed it. Some people consider the Prophet (pbuh), to be only a dead person, that he was sent to convey the message and is finished. But he is still alive! He is still alive! He is all over the world!
