God�s witness,
He is the beautiful and dignified,
thou art beautiful and dignified.
The poet, again, says to the Mosque that �you are the interpretation of
the Momin�s dreams in the world, the exposition his high-mindedness
and the exemplification of his soul in brick and mortar.
�The hand of Momin, in power and dominance, in the dispersal of
difficulties and the fulfillment of needs, is the Hand of God and an
instrument of Providence. Apparently, he is born of clay but in reality, he
has the nature of Light. There is the reflection of Divine Attributes in his
being. He is indifferent to the allurements of the world. His desires are few
but his aims are high. He is the embodiment of grace and strength, love
and sternness. He is gentle of speech but warmth in quest. In peace he is
soft like silk but in war he is hard as steel.
�The faith of the Believer is the pivot on which the world turns. His
existence is the essence of creation and all the rest an illusion. In him
thought and intellect and faith and love find their highest expression.
Strength and felicity in life and beauty and elegance in the world owe their
presence to him. He is the end and object of the pilgrimage of love and
heart and soul of the universe.�
Behold is thy stones are all the
Believer�s secrets,
Fire of passionate days, rapture of
melting nights.
