The Night - Laylat al-Qadr
Submitted by : Irfanism on Islam
Tonight is the Night – the Night of Decree.
Feel with the heart, what the eye cannot see.
A night in which you feel neither hot or cold.
But do you know of the magic about to unfold?
It is the Night of Universal and Divine Celebration -
When the Book of Books was given to an Orphan.
Tonight is the Night – the Night of Power.
Where nothing but His blessings will shower.
Where Jibrael and the Angels from heaven descend,
Praying for the Almightys beloved, slave and friend.
They fill the space between heavens and earth.
Do you really know what this night is worth?
Tonight is the Night – the Night of Mercy.
So let all the burdens you carry be set free.
With raised hands I pray on this Night of Reveal,
For the forgotten and broken hearts to heal.
My own heart melts into humble gratitude -
For how many of His blessings have I valued?
Tonight is the Night – the Night of Brightness.
So pray and seek His pardon and forgiveness.
The wind dances with trees in eternal bliss,
And caresses weeping tears with a gentle kiss.
Whispers piercing seven skies to reach the One,
Pleading for their wishes and hopes to be done.
Tonight is the Night – the Night of Peace.
So gather it’s blessings before it will cease.
I lift my gaze to the dancing clouds high above,
Praying for the world to once again be filled with love.
Wash away what never belonged to the soul,
For indeed - a diamond is hidden in every coal.
Tonight is the Night – the Night of Decree.
Feel with the heart, what the eye cannot see.
