The Quiet Bloom Of Mercy
I wandered alone on corniche, On the pavement,besides the sea, Far away from train of thoughts, Seeing seagulls in waves scurrying, Bending themselves like a bow-string, Calm and rejoicing in the dark sea, Pacified my restless soul in agony, The moon arose above the castle, Suspended in air calm and serene, A light from Allah…

ALLAH’S NAMES-My Refuge
Deep in my heart the light of ALLAH shines, AR-RAHMAN asked my soul who’s at the door? I said mere dust,before Divine, AR-RAHIM asked what do you desire? I said AL-AFUW’S forgiveness, O AR-RAUF don’t drive me away as YOU’RE most kind, I fixated my eyes on AL-MUIZZ, Is there anything in heavens which is…

Hope
When on my beautiful couch i lie, And hateful thoughts enwrap my mind, Frightens me as the morn frightens night! In wonder i asked to God one night- Is suffering bound to the nobler mind? Allah in quiet of night doth reply- This world is full of miseries and strife, Be patient and strive for…

Everytime my head touches the ground in submission, Peace!perfect peace! found amidst every moment, I chose thy perfect…

Broodings of a lone heart
Lonely,open,vast and free, One’s life like desert so gruelling, As sandstorms passed with winds raging, My heart withstood the tortous jeering, Painting me black every morning and evening, Where empathy rays were always missing, With every trials surely Allah is guiding, He gave me strength to endure suffering, Thy will not mine,The King of Kings,…

Allah’s Sovereignty
The throne of Allah is a beacon of light, His Majesty ‘Istawa’ over it as He likes, From It springs forth rivers of paradise, Allah coils the night upon day and day upon night, He made sun a shining splendour and moon reflected light, Beneath His Throne,its resting place the sun glides, It prostrates to…

The Enlightened Soul
O adamant ‘Self’ of mine,don’t enslave the heart full of sunshine, Else you will ruin me or hold me in bondage of thine! For ‘Self’ eat the good deeds and act according to its whims, It chose the luxury of world harmful for inner being, So don’t become a slave of satan,a worst enemy of…
