Hadra Khadija

This Ḥaḍrah is a heartfelt tribute to Sayyidah Khadījah al-Kubrā—the first to believe, the steadfast companion of the Prophet ﷺ, and the radiant mother of this Ummah. Rooted in love and reverence, these litanies draw the soul toward her light and invite the seeker to dwell in the nearness of her noble station.The sacred tradition of the Ḥaḍrah held on the night of the 11th traces back to Imām Aḥmad al-Miḥḍār—the saint whose qubbah rests in the mountainous valley of Dawʿān, perched atop a rugged cliff between heaven and earth. There, where the winds whisper dhikr and the rocks remember, his light continues to shine across the ages.This work is inspired by the miraculous story of Ḥabīb Aḥmad bin Muḥammad al-Miḥḍār, who once found sanctuary at the grave of Sayyidah Khadījah when the world turned against him. It is a reminder that the righteous are never forgotten—and that the hearts of lovers still knock upon the gates of al-Muʿallā, yearning for nearness.May every recitation become a key to presence, a balm for the soul, and a means of drawing near to the Beloved of the Beloved ﷺ.
