Sincerely Seeking The Divine Light Within... Poem by Mohammad Younus

Sincerely seeking the divine light within...
...Allah's unbound love flows through your soul;
Be constant in prayer, bowing in humble reverence...
...your heart will echo with divine music;

While hearing the sweet voice of long, incessant hu, ....
...your spirit will find solace in staying steadfast, ...
...in the perennial remembrance of your merciful lord;
Devoted to Allah, your faith will get ever strong...
...through the zikr without a stop.

Sincere devotion, though not an easy thing is...
...a clear testament of your surrender to the lord, ...
...the dispenser of grace on you and all.

When you adore the Almighty's grace...
...through constant zikrullah...
...He too will grace and honour you...
...as He promises in His Divine Writ, the Qur'ān.

Believe in Allah, with unwavering devotion, ...
...and all the time be immersed in prayer, ...
...your soul will find peace and calm in His presence;

Dwelling in constant zikr...
...your spirit will thrive in purity...
...and Allah will grace you with guidance...
...to attain to The purpose of your life.

A true worshiper you will then be, ...
...and will find peace in obedience;
With each prostration, you will conquer...
...inner strife, stress and tension.
You will find true spiritual transcendence;
Thus, chaos and confusion you will come over.

Seeking the divine, your soul becomes alive
and realises...
...the Hidden secret of the Absolute unity...
...and in ecstasy you will shout to yourself:
Duality has gone, and oneness has dawned!

You will hear your God speaking to you:
I am the truth, and so you say:
'He is the One; He is the Eternal;
He is the Uncaused Cause of All Being;
He begets not, and neither is He begotten;
There is nothing that could be compared with Him!

Having realised the Oneness, ...
...you will find solace in prayer...
...as it helped you know your true being, ...
...and that you have your source in...
...the divine reality, the best of the creators!
Your Lord! Lord of all the worlds!
