Petition Him Every Moment – Abdur Rahman’s Corner

Peace, one and all…
Petition Him every moment for your needs and be not without remembrance of Him, for the remembrance of Him is strength; it is a wing to the bird of the spirit. If that goal is fully attained, it will be light upon light [24:35]. If you are mindful of God, little by little your interior will be illuminated and you will attain release from the world.
If a bird tries to fly to heaven, it may never reach it but it still gets farther from the earth every moment and flies higher than other birds. If you have musk in a container with a narrow neck, you put your finger into it. You can’t get the musk out, but your finger is perfumed nonetheless and your sense of smell is gratified. Being mindful of God is. like this. Although you cannot reach His essence, remembrance of Him has many effects, and many great benefits accrue.
Hz. Mevlana, Fihi Ma Fihi, 45
