If you truly consider the action of creation,
He is the viewer, the vision and the eye.
The sacred tradition expressed this meaning:
That “through Me you see” and “through Me you hear.”
Shabistari , Gulshan-e Raz
Dancing is not getting up anytime painlessly
like a speck of dust blown around in the wind.
Dancing is when you rise above both worlds,
tearing your heart to pieces, giving up your soul.
— Mawlana Rūmī
On the hadith, “all the earth is a masjid…”
🕌🌎
I asked the earth why
she was everywhere
suitable for prayer,
sacred and pure?
Without speaking she said:
because within me rests
for every single person
someone they’ve loved.
—Ibn Rashīq al-Qayrawānī (Tunis & Sicily, d. 1071)
