The Mirror of A Rose

Soft in presence, yet bearing weight,

Truthful in word, the nafs to shake.

Shielding from arrows that pierce in the night,

Al-Rahmān’s Beloved ﷺ, mercy and light.

Darkness dispelled with knowledge bright,

Hearts made gentle through dhikr’s light.

The hidden revealed what no one could see;

Al-Mustafā ﷺ shaped hearts to be free.

A compass in trial, a guide when we fall,

drops in the ocean, yet giving our all.

We offer in weakness, yet offer it whole:

service, love, life, and prayers with soul.

Through windows of soul — the journey flows:

Mountains, valleys, deserts, skies, and snow.

Diving within realities, together we see,

The search for the self for Eternity.

Fragrant in spirit, humble, yet strong,

Mercy and strength where hearts belong.

Yet what remains is the Rose — its secret to show,

A mirror of the Beloved ﷺ we know.

The Rose stands alone, in silence it speaks…

Reflecting only هُوَ — the One whom all seek.
