A recitation of Muhammad al-Busiri's Qasidah al-Burda in Fatih Mosque, Istanbul, Turkey, as part of a hifdh (complete memorisation of the Qur'an) graduation ceremony for students of the Ismailaga madrasah. The Ismailaga madrasah, along with the Ismailaga mosque, is closely affiliated to the Khalidi branch of the Naqshbandi tariqah.

The verses being recited are from the tenth and final chapter of the Burda but other than that are in no particular order.

¹ The Prophet Muhammad
² Taibah = an alternative name for the city of Madinah, meaning "pure". This verse refers to Masjid al-Nabawi in Madinah, which was the Prophet Muhammad's mosque and house before it came to be the place he was buried.
³ Haram = sanctuary, of which there are three in Islamic belief. When used on its own like here, it generally refers to the most famous and holy of the harams - Masjid al-Haram in Makkah, modern-day Saudi Arabia.

The Qasidah al-Burda (Ode of the Cloak) is a 166-verse qasidah (ode) by Imam Muhammad al-Busiri in praise of the Prophet Muhammad and his followers. Al-Busiri relates how, after becoming paralysed in his old age, the Prophet Muhammad appeared to him in a dream and wrapped his cloak around him, after which he awoke to find that he was cured of his paralysis. These events inspired him to compose what would become the most famous and oft-recited poem in Islamic history.

The Burda is recited by Muslims in many different countries and in many different compositions, but rarely in its entirety. It used to adorn Masjid al-Nabawi before it was erased by the Saudis in the 20th century save for one verse.
