Salaam and Greetings of Peace:
In prayer you touch
the wholesome seeds
in your consciousness
and water them.
These are seeds of compassion,
love, understanding,
forgiveness and joy.
If while praying
you can recognize
these seeds in you
and help them grow,
your prayer is already
a deep practice.
Prayer is a practice
to help us touch love
and bring it into our lives.
Ya Haqq!
“Love ought to change you.”
November 18, 2014Salaam and Greetings of Peace:
“Love ought to change you. If love remains only lip-service you do not really love. If love does not change you from the inside, from your heart and soul, and if it does not fundamentally change your behavior, your words, and even in your non-verbal communication, than you have not even started to love; you would be just a talker.”
— Shaykh Dr. Muhammad bin Yahya al-Husayni al-Ninowy
Ya Haqq!
