iPoet poem: Qur'anic Love
Monday, January 10, 2011 Read more → Creative-Writing, muslim poetry, the idawah In the name of God, entirely Compassionate, especially Merciful | Peace be with you
Doses of love capsuled within a rainbow,
Burnt candle sparkled out light,
Sprinkles of air captured within a rose,
Petals flew before lions cried.
Fire burnt,
Ice froze,
Biscuit-dried,
Water became wet.

Fire burnt,
Ice froze,
Biscuit-dried,
Water became wet.
Couplets of gold,
Within verses,
Pages turn to sliver.
Ink dried,
Pen lifted;
The Words of Allah subhanahu wa ta`ala

Commentary
The poetry of Imam Al Shafi’ee inspired me to write this short poem. How words can be so few, yet carry so much meaning behind them. With fire burning and ice freezing, I wanted to express how our love for the Quran can not be measured by normal love, for deep love goes beyond the surface and deeper beyond the eye. The words of Allah are far beyond in wisdom than the words of the creation. Subhan'Allah. {www.islamicpoet.com}
