  1. You've asked before about Zain Al-Abedeeen and Al-Frazdaq has a famous poem praising him but it wasn't titled

    It says " in arabic ofcourse "

    hatha alathe ta'aref al Batha'o watatoho '

    Sorry but this is what I know

    and you know poetry looses its value and music sense once translated


  2. Farazdaq, in this poem, refers to the occasion when the Caliph Hisham b. Abd al Malik was overshadowed by the respect which people showed towards the great grandson (Zaynul Abideen) (a.s.) of the Holy Prophet (s), at the time of Hajj when both of the individuals were trying to reach the crowds around the Kaab'ah to get to the black stone. The people gave way to the Imam (as) while the Caliph struggled desperately. The Caliph, deeply offended, inquired in a sarcastic tone, who the person was who people had shown such preference. Farazdaq, who was also present at the moment composed an ode and recited it, addressing himself to Hisham.

    It is someone whose footsteps are known by every place

    And it is he who is known to the Bayt in Mecca

    the most frequented sanctuary;

    It is he who is the son of the best of all men of God

    and it is he who is the most pious and devout,

    the purest and most unstained

    the chastest and most righteous

    a symbol [for Islam]

    This is Ali [bin. al Husayn] whose parent is the Prophet

    This is the son of Fatima, if you do not know who he is

    Whosoever recognizes his God knows also

    the primacy and superiority of this man

    Because the religion has reached nations

    through his House............
