Night Whispers

The stars shine brightly as I open my window.


The curtains dance softly to the melody of the delicate breeze.

I sit by my window, bedazzled.


Its 3 am.

Nothing can compare to the complete calmness of this moment.

I hear HIM.

“Is there anyone who calls on Me that I may respond to him? Is there anyone who asks Me that I may give unto him? Is there anyone who requests My Forgiveness that I may forgive him?”

I hasten to make my wudhu.The splash of cold water illuminates my face.

As I begin the sacred conversation with my Lord, I leave this world far behind.

Every trace of worry or grief seems to be dissolving in the unfathomable beauty of the night prayer.

In His Divine Love, I find peace and strength.
