A place to share things of benefit to Seekers as we travel through this world. The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: "What have I to do with this world? There is no comparison between me and this world, except to a rider who stops for shade under a tree and then goes on leaving it behind."

Rumi: The Visions Now Revealed to You...
The visions now revealed to you, once they seemed absurd to you. From ten prisons His bounty released you. Make not the desert a prison for you.
Subhan Allah, this is so beautiful! Is the translation your own?

ReplyDeleteAlhamdulillah. Actually, the translation is the one I found in the book Bounty of Allah -- not sure whose translation she used...
Barak Allahu fi kum.
Wassalam,
