Mahmud Ki Aameen, which was composed by the Promised Messiah to celebrate the occasion when Hazrat Mirza Mahmud Ahmad, had finished the Holy Quran, is one of the most well-known poems of his. Reading it, one hears the singing of the Praise of the Lord; the anguished sighs of the most devoted Heart, 'the wailing and crying' of the purest Soul at the threshold of God; and one finds its refrains so pregnant with the Exaltation of, and prayers to, the Almighty. It is the epitome of the most comprehensive prayers ever offered to God. In short, it is one of the most precious gems that the Promised Messiah has

bequeathed to us. May peace and blessings of Allah be on him. May

each of us have the fullest share of the blessings of

it. Aameen
