The Radiant Dawn
بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
Shaykh ‘Umar ibn ‘Ali ibn al-Farid (q.s.) wrote:
“Is it a flash of lightning that
shone over the mottled mountain,
Or, do I see a lantern
flickering in the hills of Najd?
Or is it Layla of the Banu Amir who unveiled her face at night,
And converted the evening dusk into radiant dawn?”
