Source of my honor

بِسْمِ اللّهِ الرَّحْمـَنِ الرَّحِيمِ

Qadi ‘Iyad ibn Musa (1083–1149), a famous scholar is supposed to have said these verses, which should be the pride of every Muslim.

ومـما زادني شـرفـاً وتـيــهـاً
وكدت بأخمصي أطأ الـثريا
دخولي تحت قولك يا عبادي
وأن صـيَّرت أحمد لي نـبيـا

The translation with my limited abilities is as follows:

ومـما زادني شـرفـاً وتـيــهـاً

And among what increased my honor, pride and bewilderment

وكدت بأخمصي أطأ الـثريا

That my feet almost tread upon the stars

دخولي تحت قولك يا عبادي

Is my being embraced in your statement "O My slaves"

وأن صـيَّرت أحمد لي نـبيـا

And you chose Ahmad  (ﷺ)   as a prophet for me
