Mujaddid Poem by Yusof Mutahar

In the stillness where the self grows faint, a deeper truth appears,
A silence taught by Imam Ahmed Sirhindi that dissolves the weight of years.
He showed the seeker how to die before the final breath —
To taste the sweetness of fana', the hidden life in death.

He said: Erase what is your own, and let the Real remain;
For baqā' is born when every claim of self is slain.
And in that death, a subtler birth, where only Light abides —
A heart rebuilt by Heaven's hand, where the Eternal resides.

O Mujaddid, master of the path where shadows disappear,
You taught that loss of self is gain, and union crystal clear.
Your guidance lives in every heart that aches to be undone—
To vanish in the Holy Name, and truly love Only One.
