FOR REAL, THE PROGENY OF BAYE NIASS WOULD EVER BE AS PRECIOUS &
PRICELESS AS PEARL!!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
SHAYKHA UMMU-HAANII BINT SHAYKH IBRAHIM NIASSE AL-KAOLACKY (RTA)
She is the last biological daughter that Shaykh Ibrahim Niasse prayed
for, in his lifetime...before embarking on his las
She is an Ocean of Knowledge and a Memoriser of the Qur'aan (Haafizatul Qur'an).
Sheikh Ibrahim told her mother (Sayyidah Bilqees) that; "Ummuhani
resembles my father (i.e. Shaykh Abdullah Niasse)”. She memorized the Qur'an
(completely) at the age of 13 and she taught it to all her sisters (from her
mum).

| Sayyida Ummuhani Ibrahim Niasse and her Siblings (Sayyida Hafsa, Sayyida Rahma & Sayyida Fatima) |
She got married at the age of 18 years, to Shaykh Uthman Bashir (a close
mureed of Shaykh Ibrahim Niasse)....The marriage was officiated and blessed by Shaykh Sidi Aliyu Cisse and Sheikh Abdullahi Niasse.
 |
Shaykh Uthman Bashir (al-Kanawi) and his children (Sidi Baye, Abdul-Malik and Ali)
|
She spent 25 years with her husband with 9 children...Masha'Allah. They are all Memorizers of the Qur'aan (Huffaazul Qur'an).
She was born at London, brought up to seven years, then she returned to
Senegal for Qur'an studies.. Shaykh Ibrahim himself was the one that wrote the
first huruf/alphabets for her on Lau'hu (Slate). The slate is still with us!
She memorized her first Qur'an from Suuratu Nas to Baqarah. And when returning for the second from Suuratul Baqarah, she reached the thirteenth hizb “Wamaa min da'abatin fii-l-ardi” Suratu
Huud.
 |
| Sayyida Ummuhani Ibrahim Niasse and Sayyida Fatima Ibrahim Niasse |
One night, Sheikh Ibrahim called for her after Salatul Ishaa'i. That time her mother was away to Nigeria...and usually when her mother travelled, Sheikh used to take some of his food and put it in plate, he will then send someone to take it to Daar (School) to give Ummuhani.
So that day...when she was called, Baye asked her; “Hope
you do get the food I used to send to you?”
She said; Yes.
Then he asked; “hope you are learning qur'an very well?”
She said; Yes.
He asked; “where are you now in the Qur'an??”.
She said; “I have reached 'wamaa min daabatin'”.
He said; “ok, read it for me”.
She started reading from the 'Alif-Lam-Raa. kitaabun uhkimat Ayatuhu thumma fussilat min ladun hakeemin khabeer...up to the end of d first sumun of the hizb.
Then Shaykh said; “Try to finish the Qur'an, because I have promised
your grandpa (Shaykh Abdul-Malik Attah) that you will memorize Qur'an, so put
more effort. I am traveling tomorrow, when I come back, I will hear your Hadda
(Complete Qur'an).”

قصيدة الترحيب لسيدتنا أم هاني إبراهيم نياس لزيارتها إلى غانا
A WELCOME POEM DEDICATED TO OUR SAYYADAH UMMUHANI IBRAHIM NIASSE WHEN SHE CAME TO GHANA (IN 2017)
تشبهت عشق الناس خلقا
وخلقة
وأعني به برهام عشق حبيبنا
YOU
RESEMBLE THE BELOVED OF THE PEOPLE IN CHARACTER AND CREATION
I
MEAN BY BARHAMA THE BELOVED OF OUR BELOVED
لقد كان متلوا الكتاب
إلهنا
كما أنت قارئة لنفس الكتاب
HE USED
TO BE RECITING THE BOOK OF OUR LORD (AL-QUR'AN)
AS
YOU ARE ALSO READING THE SAME BOOK
لقد حفظ القرآن منذ طفولته
كما حفظت القرآن كنت صغيرة
HE HAD
MEMORIZED THE QUR'AN SINCE HIS INFANCY
AS
YOU ALSO MEMORIZED THE QUR'AN WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG
كذا خصله دوما مناجاة حبه
وكنت كذا في كل وقت وساعة
SAME
APPLIES TO HIS MANNER, INVOCATION OF HIS BELOVED ALWAYS
YOU ARE ALSO DOING THE SAME EVERY TIME AND
EVERY MOMENT
ولاشك أن الغانيين قد
افرحوا
برأيتك يابنت الحبيب
المفضل
SO
GHANAIANS WERE UNDOUBTEDLY HAPPY
TO SEE YOU O DAUGHTER OF THE BELOVED OF THE
VIRTUOUS (PROPHET)
فقد لاقيت أفواج العشاق
محبنا
أتوا من أقاليم شتى للقاءك
YOU
HAVE MET NUMEROUS ADMIRERS OF OUR BELOVED (BAYE NIASS)
THEY CAME FROM VARIOUS REGIONS (STATES) TO
MEET YOU
ولاكنهم قد تأسفوا بعد
فرحهم
لقلة أيام التي أمضيت
بينهم
BUT
THEY WERE SAD AFTER THEIR HAPPINESS
DUE TO FEW DAYS THAT YOU SPENT WITH THEM
ومازاولوا راغبين الدوام
الإلتقاءك
لأنك سر نياس دهرا مسرمدا
AND
THEY CEASELESSLY HOPE TO ALWAYS MEET YOU
BECAUSE YOU ARE AN INFINITE SECRET OF
(BAYE) NIASS FOREVER
لقد ملأت الآفاق حبا وشوقة
لكم أسرة الحب الحبيب
المشفع
THE
HORIZON IS SATURATED WITH LONGING AND LOVE
FOR YOU, THE FAMILY OF LOVE OF THE
BELOVED INTERCEEDOR (PROPHET)
صلاة وتسليما على عشق
شيخنا
محمد خير العالمين شفيعنا
PRAYER
AND PEACE BE UPON THE BELOVED OF OUR SHEIKH
MUHAMMAD THE BEST OF MANKIND OUR SAVIOR
