Death and Divine Intercession
Death is not a veil,
Life is,
And to pass away is
To lift the veil for that
Long-awaited union with
God the All-Beautiful and
Most Desirable above all,
Winning through with the intercessions
Of Muhammad Habibullah,
The most cherished hope glittering
In the crown of hopes bestowed by God
To humanity, God's Own anointed
Mercy to all the worlds...
......................
There is no better way. No more fitting manner by which we can live this life - with the unbelievable varieties of plants, animals and living beings, all forms of tests, trials and tribulations, an infinite scope of happiness, joy and unadulterated rapture, with all of the vast expanse of humanity, friends, families, peers and lovers... There is no better way to journey through this kaleidoscope of creation, than by preparing oneself for the lifting of the veil that Man calls death.
Hidden in a prophetic quote (that I have used before) is the explanation to this preparatory and transient nature of this world, for God's Beloved, Muhammad (s.a.w.s) once shared that...
"There are no trees in heaven. You must plant them yourselves..."
So may God bless all gardeners, farmers and greenthumbs.

| My late mother loved gardening. On the 10th anniversary of her lifting of the veil last year, we arranged this ornamental water-pail with bright yellow roses to decorate her maqam. al fatiha |
Have a perfectly nice day, sunshine.
wa min Allah at-taufiq
Hate has no place in Islam
Love will show the Way
