Beneath the Burdah: Ode to the Prophet (ﷺ) - Paperback

The first original Qasidah Burdah written entirely in English, a modern epic that recalls the key moments of the Prophet's life ﷺ and asks us honestly: how does his vision inhabit our own lives today?

Using the traditional form of an oral epic, poet Majid Mohiuddin draws from the deep well of prophetic love to create something new in the English language: a contemporary ode worthy of its subject.
