Nuun. By the pen and that which they write,
Thou art not, by the Grace of thy Lord, a majnuun (a madman).
And lo! thine verily will be a reward without end.
And lo! thou art of a tremendous character.
Soon thou wilt see and they will see
Which of you is afflicted with madness.
Surah 68 Al-Qalam (The Pen), Verses 1 - 6
translation from the Glorious Qur’aan
* * *
people think they love
but they know only their own ignorance
when one truly loves,
there is nothing to know
and surely no one to know it
love drowns all true lovers
to become their life
in the midst of their death
if you live to love
death is one of the requirements
even if you die before you die
until we overcome our selfishness
we cannot even begin to love...
