# Arbaab Raza Mola **Urdu title:** ارباب رضا مولا **Section:** Noha & Marsiya -- Fatima Zahra Imamia Centre devotional library **Page:** https://fzic.org/library/noha/arbaab-raza-mola-50102 **Form:** Manqabat **Poet:** Mir Hasan Mir **Source: Mir Hasan Mir's words as published with his official recording (Mir Records, 2021), with his permission. Roman Urdu and English: prepared by the Centre.** ## About this text The manqabat praises Imam Raza (a), Sultan of the Arabs and King of Khurasan, who makes changes on the Tablet with the pen, whose generosity the world knows and whose honour even Allah upholds. Visiting his shrine carries the wondrous savour of the hajj: its sabeel is Zamzam, its courtyard of healing Mina, his shrine the Kaaba of faith and its floor the throne of Solomon. He is the eighth governor of the order of the two worlds, who distributes sustenance on the Provider's behalf, and the poet's life is in his control. It asks that no believer be left in distress and only his enemy troubled, that those who seek children or healing be granted their wish for the sake of Masooma of Qom (a), and that the poet, like Di'bil, be called to praise him. Written and recited by Mir Hasan Mir; published with his permission. ## Text **Stanza 1** Urdu: ارباب رضا مولا ؑ ارباب ،ارباب ، ارباب ،رضا مولا ؑ سلطان ِعرب ،شاہِ خراسان ۔ارباب رضا مولا ؑ نوبت ہے تیری شاہی کا اعلان Roman Urdu: Arbab Raza Maula Arbab, Arbab, Arbab, Raza Maula Sultan-e-Arab, Shah-e-Khurasan.
