Na'at (Bengali: নাত, Urdu: نعت‎) is poetry in praise of the Islamic prophet, Muhammad (ﷺ). The practice is popular in South Asia (Bangladesh, Pakistan and India), commonly in Bengali, Pashto, Punjabi or Urdu. People who recite Na'at are known as Na'at Khawan or sana'a-khua'an. Exclusive "Praise to Allah" and Allah alone is called Hamd, not to be confused with 'Na'at'.

In Arab countries, lyrics and praises said for Muhammad are called Madih nabawi.

History:

It is difficult to trace the history of Na'at khawani since no authenticated record of when it was initiated can be found. One early author, Hassan, was known as Shair-e-Darbaar-e-Risalat. Even before accepting Islam he was a poet, but after embracing Islam he gave a new turn to his poetry and started writing Na'ats in honor of Muhammad(ﷺ). He was famous for his poetry that defended Muhammad (ﷺ) in response to rival poets who attacked him and his religion. Therefore, Hassan is known as the first sana-khawaan (na'at reciter) of that time. After that many a poet followed this trend and totally dedicated themselves towards writing of na'ats.

Tala' al Badru 'Alayna, a song sung to Muhammad (ﷺ) during his completion of migration to Medina in 622 CE, is believed to be one of the earliest na'ats.
