“One day you will ask me which is more important? My life or yours? I will say mine and you will walk away not knowing that you are my life.”
Khalil Gibran

And if they ask about me or my whereabouts, inform them that your failure to express gratitude to your Lord for His blessings resulted Him taking it away from you.
What’s the sense of loving me so much and not understanding me, missing me but not seeking for me, including me among your possessions but not making me the most significant one?
We are all in the same situation. Concealment has slaughtered us. If you speak, they will break you, and if you remain silent, you will suffer.
This ninety year old man has been offering free coffee and tea to people who pass by in Medinah near the Quba Mosque for 40 years.
He says in his Syrian dialect:
إذا ما اشتغلت لله، لا يرتاح قلبي
If I don’t busy and work myself for Allah, my heart will not be at ease.

Words are like swords they’re lethal; so I left without a word…
موت کا بھی علاج ہو شاید
For death a cure there well may be
زندگی کا کوئی علاج نہیں
But for life, no remedy is to be found
