God speaks to each of us as He makes us,
continuous,
then with us, silently out of the night,
He walks.
These are the words we dimly hear:
"You, sent out beyond your recall,
go to the limits of your longing.
walk to the furthest horizon
of your yearning.
Embody Me.
Flare up like flame
and make big shadows I can veil Myself in.
Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror.
Just keep going. No feeling is final.
Don't let yourself lose Me.
Don't let yourself lose Me.
Nearby is the country they call life.
You will know it by its majestic seriousness.
Now, my friend,
Give Me your hand.
Hold the Hand of the only real Friend
You ever had."
- Rainer Maria Rilke, Translated reworked by Sadiq Alam

In the Name of the Universal Lover, Your Exclusive Lover Who is Infinitely Loving
For the Divine Love is always listening, always knowing every state of affair.
Behold! For those who attain the loving-faith in God, God is their Exclusive Friend, al-Wali.

There can be no compulsion in the Path of Love. Reality manifests clearly from illusion. So let the lovers hear the call of Love and arrive at the Door of the Beloved. Whoever rejects falsehood and attain loving-faith in God has grasped the most trustworthy Hand that never let go.
For the Divine Love is always listening, always knowing every state of affair.
Behold! For those who attain the loving-faith in God, God is their Exclusive Friend, al-Wali.

Lovely to read about how the journey to find God in the heart leads to both the outer and inner journey. The story shows how God chooses whom he will give his wisdom. My inner journey showed me that those who are pure of heart, there is no lack of clarity about what is God's desire. Only a pure heart can see deep into God's book. From the beginning, God created thought forms into the world that leads man from level to level until the last religion and then lead people to the heart so it can be cleaned to hold the truth as it is alive to follow with ears, eyes, hands and all that is . I have only one desire that is longing for Jesus and Islam leader must come to earth, that those heavenly leaders from God must come to earth soon to show me and us weak selfish ego, as we try to help, to obey God and them Heavenly leaders who can save the world. Let us fill our hearts with longing for his coming from the Prophet (pboh) family, must come soon so we can learn about the way of peace, I hope.
Thank you for sharing your articles, I hope you have an interesting and creative new year.
