“Here, I am”

All night, a man called “Allah”

Until his lips were bleeding.

Then the Devil said, “Hey! Mr Gullible!

How comes you’ve been calling all night

And never once heard Allah say, “Here, I am”?

You call out so earnestly and, in reply, what?

I’ll tell you what. Nothing!”


The man suddenly felt empty and abandoned.

Depressed, he threw himself on the ground

And fell into a deep sleep.

In a dream, he met Abraham, who asked,

“Why are you regretting praising Allah?”


The man said, “ I called and called

But Allah never replied, “Here I am.”

Abraham explained, “Allah has said,

“Your calling my name is My reply.

Your longing for Me is My message to you.

All your attempts to reach Me

Are in reality My attempts to reach you.

Your fear and love are a noose to catch Me.

In the silence surrounding every call of “Allah”

Waits a thousand replies of “Here I am.”


~ Rumi

Satan says, "Tempt them to spend, spend, spend, and borrow, borrow, borrow."

Worship without Charity Is Unacceptable to Allah

One day the Lord asked Jibrail " Oh Jibrail, had I made you a human being, how would you have worshipped Me?" " Oh Lord , cried the angel , "all secrets are open to You!" "Yes indeed" said the Lord, " but let My servants be aware that they do not know what I know." Jibrail then went on to say "I would worship your Divine essence in three ways: First by helping those in poverty. Second by covering up the guilt of sinners. Thirdly by quenching the thirst of the thirsty." The Exalted One said "It is because I knew this about you, that I made you My trusted agent for the transmission of my Revelations."
