Death Of self



There she lay
All in white
And turned on her side
Her hair, black ,wavy, flowing
In stillness and silence.
Her presence in her stillness
Emanated her glow.
left behind, saddened.
A death of self, a death of desires.
There he lay beside her
Clutching her body, lifeless
he sensed her withdrawal from the world
he held her to relieve her pain, it seems
Although he was in pain.
He clasped his arms around her lifeless body
He kept his self close to her
as if to merge.... a death of temptations
A rise in faith.
He was her rock and he was the faith , come to rescue.
The death of nafs, of desires.
Her freedom to exist.
Above , with eyes aflame
red and eerie,
A vision of past desires.
Defeated.
There they waited and tasted
Love and faith, winners of the struggle.
Survivors of the war on self.

Ramadan 24, 1438H

Assalamualaikum warahmahtullahi wabarakatuh. Assalatu wasalam ala sayyidina Muhanmmad was ala alih.  Bulan Ramadhan yang sempurna sudah mau berakhir. Ummat menjemput kedatangan malam Laylatul Qadr: sebuah malam yang disebutkan yang lebih berkah dan punya pahala yang berlebih2an; pahala berganda ; malam dimana malaikat Jibril dan semua malaikat2 lain menurun ke Bumi untuk melihatkan manusia dan mendoakkan kita. Ini ialah kepercayaan ; iman dan deen seorang muslim / mukmin. Dengan kesadaran ini kita punya harapan. Dengan harapan kita inshaallah meningkatkan keimanan. Allah zal Jalalu tidak pernah mau melimpahkan kepada manusia sesuatu, selain rasa kasih cinta; sebab itu muslim2 seluruh dunia merasa ketenangan bulan mulia ini. Kalau memang ada di tempat2, yang dalam bulan Ramadhan yang tidak nyaman , masih berperang ; artinya mereka sendiri menjauhi diri mereka daripada kegembiraan yang Allah Subhana Wa Ta'ala hendak memberikan.

Aims

Although I am afraid Although I may feel weak Although destiny has been written  Nothing prepares for it’s trials  Although I may have knowledge  Although I may be courageous  Although I have my principles  Nothing but faith can lift me Although  I dread what future holds  Although life’s path is blurred Although my aim is apparent  Nothing but my self can take this road  So,  when this path is trodden Slowly will I venture  The care and caution I will use  In time I will be beholden  To experience which age has brought That will guide me towards my haven  ~lorrainenur@2018 Seems inspirations are starting once more. How I have missed it’s presence. 🌹
