The True Condition at Swalah
بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
It is written, in Aw’arif al-Ma’arif, that when Imam Abu al-Hasan ‘Ali ibn Husayn Zayn al-‘Abidin (q.s.) performed wudhu, his face used to become pale, and when he stood in swalah, then his complexion would change to such an extent, that it would be difficult to recognise him. The people would ask, “O Beloved of the Prophet, what has happened to you?”
And he would reply, “O
People! Swalah is a time when you are present in the Court of Allah (s.w.t.). Who is so naive as to smile and look happy,
when he is standing before his Creator?”
