How
wonderfully intoxicated with praise
Are the Ahmadis who say
Thank God now we have
In the West a new mosque
May it become a spring
Of the oneness of God
This is the prayer on everyone’s lips
May every one find this mosque
A means of attaining nearness to God
In
the time of the fifth caliph
As a lasting and living token
Of the Mercy of our Creator
We have received this gift from God
May this Baitul Futuh be the centre
Of our triumphs and victories
May the voice that was raised from Qadian
Echo from its minarets
Grant
such worshippers
To fill its spacious space
Who are blessed with Your boundless mercy
Let it flourish night and day
With your remembrance O Our God
And make it a place of prostration
Of the saintly by Your grace
This
is Your house O Lord
Populate it with sincere worshippers
Bestow on them special happiness
Whoever comes and prostrates
At Your house’s floor
Make his home free of pain
And all kind of woe
These
worshippers of the garden of faith
Let them prosper with your grace
Keep well satiated the thirsty souls
Grant them an audience with You
Whoever Your servant comes to Your door
Keep open all gates to Your mercy O Lord
(written
by Maulana Ataul Mujeeb Rashed, Imam of the London
Mosque)
