Love & Tribulation

بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

Shaykh Manswur al-Baz al-Batha’ihi (q.s.) said: 

“If the land, and all the trees therein, were devastated by passion,

They would not be watered by rain.

If the earth were to taste the Love of Allah,

The fruit would be burned from its trees by the passion therein.

Their branches would be stripped of every leaf,

Bombarded by sparks from the heart of the fire of passion.

So, neither iron nor mountain rock is stronger,

Than the human being, in bearing love and tribulation.”
