Nothing but mercy . . .

Adorned with the garment of desire, the breeze came visiting  from the depths of eternity. The poetic tranquility of Madina has always has in stock the cure for our troubles. Somewhere on the hilltops of the heart, or on the horizon of  thought, a crescent appears. The path to Madina always endears heart whenever the moon sight itself for Ramadan or Eid, for all these routes end up dissolving itself, in a divine inspired path.

A non-repeating pearl in the tides of time, that is Prophet [saw]. A precious gift that contain nothing but goodness for the whole  mankind. In midst of trials faced by the Man, ship of human race, they remember this great sailor. We've achieved a lot, but we possess nothing. Though nothing external, the internal unrest prevails, capable of grinding the earth and human race to powder form. All the luxury made for the continence of man are waiting eagerly like a shark , to swallow man.

The breeze, that came visiting, had a poetic balm.

"Har dard ki dava hai, Muhammed [saw] ke shehar main."

There is a cure for all ills, in the city of Muhammad  [saw]

The conflict between religion and science is going to end. The Present day scientists are in the favor of joining hands between the two forces. But at the same time, when science is moving towards religion, religious faith is getting embedded with communalism and intolerance. It has become an exercise of creating darkness out of light.

But religion without tolerance is nothing. Tears rolled down the Prophet's  [saw] cheeks when  a child tried to present with a young pigeon, which had been separated from its mother.

A cat came and slept on the turban belonging to the Prophet. Instead of awaking the creature, he simply cut a piece of the cloth and went away, ensuring that the little creature was least disturbed.

When the camel began to cry out of hunger the Prophet [saw] warned the owner of his duties.

The same Prophet [saw] who wept heartbroken on the death of children, belonging to the non-believers. The very Prophet who prepared a charter of rights for the Jews of Medina.

O! my heart! Return to Madina. Open your eyes and see Madina, the city where the Mercy [saw] is lying at rest This city brings to mind the lines of a poet, who sang,

"Heaven is great indeed, but my soul hesitates to leave Madina"


[saw] [saw] [saw] !
