I desired to praise the Chosen One and was hindered
By my own inability to grasp the extent of his glory.

How can one such as I measure an ocean, when the ocean is vast?
And how can one such as I count the stones and the stars?

If all of my limbs were to become tongues, even then –
Even then I could not begin to praise him as I desired.

And if all of creation gathered together in an attempt
To praise him, even then they would stint in his due.

I have altogether ceased trying – awestruck, clinging to courtesy,
Tempered by timidity, glorifying his most exalted rank.

Indeed, sometimes silence holds within it the essence of eloquence,
And often speech merely fodder for the faultfinder.

Unable and crippled I am
As I gaze into the vastness
The vastness that harbors your praise
And glories of the best of creation...

If I tried to spell..
A drop of ink from your love
Ma quill would burn in shame
for your love match no words...ya rasoolullah!

If I were to receive a pair of the blessed prophetic sandals to place on my head, then I shall consider myself no less than a fully crowned king.

Ãœber des Propheten Gebein ist jedes Staubkorn
ein Pfeiler von Licht,
Aufrecht von der Kuppel des Grabes
Bis hin zu der Kuppel des Himmels ...
Und jene Ehrfurcht, die
wie Deine Macht die Stirnen sich neigen läßt
zeichnet im Horizont einen höheren Horizont
von Händen und Lippen
der wogt "Im Namen Gottes",
Dein ist das Lob
Dein ist der Dank
Dein ist der Ruhm
Dein ist das Reich
Der Du die Wohltat gibst, o Du der alles besitzt!
Hier sind wir zu Deinem Dienst, Du der keine Gefährten hat
Hier sind wir zu Deinem Dienst, Du der keine Gefährten hat.

Keine Glut mehr in unseren Knochen, noch Asche,
Kein Schnee, keine Schwärze;
Nicht Unglauben mehr, und Anbetung nicht.
Erniedrigung ward Gewohnheit, und Schwäche ohne Licht ...
O Herr,
Du lehrtest uns Liebe,
Lehr uns den Willen, der Mauern bricht!

If Mohammed had been a false prophet. there is no reason why Christ should not have spoken of him as he spoke of Antichrist but if Mohammed is a true Prophet the passages referring to the Paraclete must inevitably concern him - not exclusively but eminently - for it is inconceivable that Christ, when speaking of the future, should have passed over in silence a manifestation of such magnitude. The same reasoning excludes a priori the possibility that Christ. when making his predictions, intended to include Mohammed under the general denomination of'' false prophets", for in the history of our era Mohammed is in no sense a typical example among others of the same kind, but on the contrary, a unique and incomparable apparition(1). If he had been one of the false prophets announced by Christ he would have been followed by others and there would exist in our day a multitude of false religions subsequent to Christ and comparable in importance and extension to Islam. The spirituality to be found within Islam from its origins up to our days is an incontestable fact. and "by their fruits ye shall know them." Moreover, it will be recalled that the Prophet in his doctrine has testified to the second coming of Christ without attributing to himself any glory. unless it be that of being the last Prophet of the cycle and history proves that he spoke the truth, no comparable manifestation having followed after him.

Hearts melt when the Beloved of Allah is mentioned.
