Naʽat (Urdu: نعت; Bengali: নাত and Punjabi) is poetry in praise of the Islamic prophet, Muhammad. The practice is popular in South Asia (India, Pakistan and Bangladesh), commonly in Urdu, Bengali or Punjabi. People who recite Naʽat are known as Naʽat Khawan or sanaʽa-khuaʽan. Exclusive "Praise to Allah" and Allah alone is called Hamd, not to be confused with 'Na'at'.[1][2][3]
In Arab countries, lyrics and praises said for Muhammad are called Madih nabawi.
