In the vast ocean of Na’atia poetry—poetry written in praise of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)—couplets often serve as bridges between the human heart and the divine light. Among these, the lyrics of "Allah Janta Hai Mohammad Ka Martaba" stand not just as a popular recitation, but as a profound theological statement on the limits of human understanding versus the infinite knowledge of God.
A Medium of Divine Connection: The lyrics reflect the belief that loving and sending blessings upon the Prophet is the definitive pathway to drawing closer to Allah.
Jis ne bhi dekha hai yeh kehta hai deeda war (Whoever has seen him, the eyewitness says:) Aisa nahi hai koi jahan mein ghulaam mein (There is no one like him among all of creation) Allah janta hai Mohammad ka martaba (Only Allah knows the status of Mohammad)
The concept of Martaba (status/rank) of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) is central to Islamic faith. Muslims believe he is the Khair ul Bashar (Best of Mankind) and the Rahmatul lil Alameen (Mercy to the Worlds). However, the full extent of his proximity to Allah, his intercession power (Shafa'ah), and his spiritual dominion is a mystery.
Before we list the lyrics, it is crucial to understand why this particular phrase has become a global anthem for millions of Muslims, especially during the month of Rabi' al-Awwal.
Translation: Only Allah knows the stature of Mohammad Whose God shows more kindness than anyone else
Allah janta hai Mohammad ka martaba,
Kaun keh sakta hai, kaun kya jaane.
(Only Allah knows Mohammad’s rank – who can claim to know it fully?)
