“The trees answered his call, prostrating.
Walking towards him on shins (trunks) without feet.
It is as though writing lines that were written.
With their branches, calligraphically writing of his perfections.”
Qasidah Burdah, Al-Busairi
A silvery grove,
ancient and still.
A trance of sacred timelessness,
gifted by the One Beyond Time.
A soft murmur hymns praises
From a lulling score
Scribed by the Pen
Adulating the perfection of creation.
Birds flit adding harmonious chirps,
As branches join the Divine Choreography.
This Madian season of birth exudes
Golden surprises.
Bursting.
Released from secluded
Seeds of darkness,
An illumed dazzle of
Exquisite beads strung on threads
Fashioned in heavens workshop.
However the most precious of gifts
By the One Beyond Time was
The Bejewelled Gem of Brightness Itself,
Muhammad SallAllahu alaihi wasallam,
Fashioned in light from His LIGHT.
Burst with a fragrance and brilliance
Unique and enduring……
“Branches calligraphically writing of his perfections.”
The Greatest Season of Birth.

“O God, bless our master Muhammad in the movement of every branch, every tree, every leaf and every fruit
stirred by the wind and in everything you have created on Your earth and what is between Your Heavens from the day You
created the world to the Day of Resurrection and every day a thousand times!”
Jazak Allah Khair for sharing these.

Assalamu alaikum, once again this humble spot is indebted to you all for participating and sharing, may the highest of Ajar be written for you all for your passion for the Madian creation and the one it was created for SallAllahu alaihi wasallam, Ameen. Dearest Ukht Farah, May it be Paradise indeed where we all meet in part due to our love for our Beloved Al-Mustafa SallAllahu alahi wasallam, Ameen. Such BEAUTIFUL SENTIMENTS! May the wind stir more and more so that the blessings increase more and more, Ameen. “8 year old Asiyah”! Insha’Allah you soon will be here to see these places for yourself, you must all be so excited!
Ukht Farhana and Akh Ikramuddin, the tranquility, even in photos saturates the heart with the essence of the Divine, Subahanu Wa Ta’ala. What was it that Rumi said….in the tavern of ruin? Intoxicating, SubhanAllah!
Wassalamu alaikum
