To Be a True Believer
Believers love for the sake of the One; they breathe love and kindle love all around. They rush to stop tears and agony, they apply antidotes to pain, they transform weeping to laughter, moaning to praise, and storms of fire to breezes of pleasure.
They scream to stop the screams of the world and their tears flow like rivers. They develop self-esteem only if it means something to others, thus preferring us over me.
They are not selfish but altruistic; they are not drowned in corporeality, but are soulful and absorbed in the truth that lies beyond. They do not allow their hearts to be hidden in their bodies or their spirits trampled under their corpses. They seek a prophetic dignity and protection from sin. Champions of discipline, believers are content with the pleasures and tastes within the lawful domainthey outperform their carnal selves and sensuality, reach the respective horizons of their spirit and overcome each obstacle with one single move, Allah willing...
