| Poet's Corner Index Page These pages are respectfully dedicated to: Hazrat Nawob Gudri Shah Baba The revered guide of Hazrat Dr Zahurul Hasan Sharib. His poetic pen name was Khadim. It is hoped these pages will contain a constantly expanding collection of verses on themes of Islamic mysticism/sufism. |
"When the saints compose poetry they express the essence of the (holy) Qur'an,
because they have effaced their own ego in the divine and move according to
God's Will. ......Professional poets suppose that the poetry of the saints is no
different from their own, but the breeze blowing over a garden brings fragrance
whereas the same breeze blowing over a refuse heap brings ordure.If you have
any sense of smell you can tell the difference."
Sultan Valad (son and a successor of Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi) quoted from, Rumi Past and
Present, East and West. p.328. Lewis. One World (Oxford) 2000
