Know Yourself

A beautiful nasheed poem about the universe and existence set to the ney flute.

For free copy of the e-paper "Know Your World and Know Your Self" go to www.windsofmercy.com

"Upon a calm subtle ocean
of inconceivable, brilliant lights
Descend the winds of mercy,
There are vibrations.. quickening,
brilant stirs of words and meaning.
In waves of possiblities,
all possible things are entangled...preserved.
When Allah commands a thing...
'be'
...and it is
A call for a thing to come out of possibilities.

A stir efferveses its way in the peaceful ocean
The tiniest of lively sparkles of light come forth
The sparkles in their entanglements,
veil and hide secrets

The ocean whispers its sparkling secret mist to the cloud,
The cloud is now the carrier
Every vibration has a meaning
Every tune a message

A turbenlent sea of manifestations
Waves of quantum leaps and transmutations
A briliant steam of massive energyy and light
bursts into a baby universe
The unverse unfolds subtle matter
Visible islands of stars and galaxies

The earth is crowned, it receives its heavenly crown
Blessed rain and fertile rivers run throught its clay,
Like paint clings to the artists brush
The clay clings to its guidance
It's secrets are now hidden,
wrapped in clay

The clay, once inert, now quickens
with its hidden treasures,
restless to find the way.
Out of the must sprout small plants raising their heads,
Crafty animals and wild beasts
We find an urge to chase game,
And to run from bigger beasts

In the world of clay,
you run and run until you are exhausted
You lay your head on a rock,
And to your lower self you sleep

You have a clear vision
Praying in Mecca
Standing on Mount Arafat
Touching the stars

A confirming brililant, heavenly light
shines into your heart
Tranforming lights peel off your clay
And unveil angelic wings for a deputy on earth

The blessed rid themsevles of clay
as their hearts cling to heavingly lights
You are born again
Into the heavens this time
Into the light from which you came

Do not be like those
whose hearts cling to the darkend clay,
instead of the light

With pure hearts we submit to Allah
Then it is said Praise be to Allah
Lord of all the worlds

It is time to stop the aimless running,
Peel off your clay,
Cling to the lights"

1:56, The thought to veal, and hide secrets is what the occult does giving an air of mystery attracting humans like bugs to a zapper. Islam does what the S&G humans did. Isaiah 1;10-11,KJV, The ritual is called Bakra Eid commemorating the time Abraham almost offered his son Isaac. Waring humans are worse than S&G .The Islamic religion is trying to put on a pretty face like Lucifer with his bright body decked out with many precious gems trying to look good, but has rottenness in his bones.

4;48, This is a whole lot of nothing. Satan knows this is a world of clay,and is the exhausted one speaking on this video. Humans are being beguiled by the beguiling serpent through the Muslim religion. Don’t fall for it.

@zahtece5 Yeah, we sure can, but I was just stating my point, and by the way, its deeply attached to religion! :) As far as this anti-religious trend is concerned, its a group deliberately working for it, and people giving into it. I can't change it alone!!! 8/ Enjoy! ;)

@artistdigital can we not just enjoy beauty without wrapping it up in the veil of religion

@MsDrlalala The problem with Wahabies/Salafies is that they separate Sufism from Islam, while Sufism is the core of Islam. Salafies believe in Sahih Bukhari, since they don't have any other source of hadith, yet they disrespect the teacher of Imam Bukhari(ra), whose teacher was Imam Abu Hanifa(ra), whose teacher was Waqee bin Al Jar'rah(ra), who was the greatest Sufi of his time and the greatest scholar of hadith according all of the Shayokh of Ahle Sunnah(Orthodox).

@alarshie sufism is much like Christian. Allah is not only the source of love but too source of fear and hope as well. What is wrong with Wahabi. Check it out man. World nowadays starts to accept this manhaj.
