"...His Signs..."

Winter is gone, spring has come; the snow has melted and the grass is now green. The trees are adorning themselves with leaves and buds. 

I thought it was amazing that after everything was so lifeless and dead, in two days, the brown and dead grass had returned to a bright green colour. Subhaan Allah!

The following aayah came to my mind

وَآيَةٌ لَهُمُ الْأَرْضُ الْمَيْتَةُ أَحْيَيْنَاهَا وَأَخْرَجْنَا مِنْهَا حَبًّا فَمِنْهُ يَأْكُلُونَ

And a sign for them is the dead earth; We gave it life and brought forth from it grain so that they may eat from it.

Surah Yaseen, aayah 33

Heart Song by Talib al Habib

SubhaanAllahi wal Hamdu Lillah La Ilaaha Illa Allahu wa Allahu Akbar

SubhaanAllahi wal Hamdu Lillah wa La Ilaaha Illa Allahu wa Allahu Akbar

Hear now, my heart song, My heart calls to You

That You guide me, My Lord, through my soul's long dark night

I send my heart song across the empty silences

To You, may You fill me with peace and with light

Lost in an ocean of doubt and confusion am I

Seeking Your burning beacon light

Streghten my hand and my heart when I falter

For I cannot weaken if You are with me

SubhaanAllahi wal Hamdu Lillah wa La Ilaaha Illa Allahu wa Allahu Akbar

Thirst beyond thought is this path that I wander

The way of the heart is a long road and hard

Send me a light and a lantern to guide me

This world weary traveller is yearning for hope

Yet still I stumble ever on

A wandering soul among the lost

Searching for the way that leads back to You

Would that I had the wings of Gabriel to bear me aloft

To the Lord of the Throne

SubhaanAllahi wal Hamdu Lillah wa La Ilaaha Illa Allahu wa Allahu Akbar

SubhaanAllahi wal Hamdu Lillah wa La Ilaaha Illa Allahu wa Allahu Akbar

Oh how blessed, how blessed, are those who have found You

Their hearts contemplating the light of Your love

So let this be the prayer of the traveller who yearns for You

Oh Lord, guide me gently to my journey's end

SubhaanAllahi wal Hamdu Lillah wa La Ilaaha Illa Allahu wa Allahu Akbar 

Hear now, my heart song, My heart calls to You

That You guide me, My Lord, through my soul's long dark night

I send my heart song across the empty silences

To You, may You fill me with peace and with light

SubhaanAllahi wal Hamdu Lillah wa La Ilaaha Illa Allahu wa Allahu Akbar
