Question

I want to request you to look at and advise about the kalaam in the following link...it has been a well known and seemingly well appreciated kalaam in Pakistan but many ideas there in seem like shirk (naudhubillah).....(the Kalaam is by a sufi poet 'purnam Allahabadi'.

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykumwa-rahmatullāhiwa-barakātuh.

We do not know the Sufi poet purnam Allahabadi. You should refer to your local Aalim or Darul Iftaa. They will advise accordingly.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
