Muhammad’s Bright Rose
March 13, 2008 by Abdur Rahman
Peace, one and all…
Muhammad’s Bright Rose
Go forth into the battle of the spirit
and may God strengthen your arm,
but make no mistake:
your only weapons are love and truth and goodness.
This war of light and shadow
is fought within the heart
of each child of Adam:
mercy is the only sane path to victory.
You have not been sent here
to destroy hearts
and wreak bloodshed:
your task is not one of spite and vengeance.
You are engaged in love’s war,
where your only strength is hope
and your only weapon
is Muhammad’s bright rose.
(Abdur Rahman, 27th January 200
Simply beautiful dearest Abdur! Maybe it’s about time you put out a beautiful book on reflections?
Salaams Barbara,
I’m touched by your kind thoughts. I’ve thought about it, but am really too busy at the moment (and I don’t know anything about publishing).
May love follow you, wherever you go…

Assalamualaikum Br Abdur Rahman
“Go forth into the battle of the spirit…….
our only weapons are love and truth and goodness.
…….
You are engaged in love’s war,
where your only strength is hope
and your only weapon
is Muhammad’s bright rose…..”
-Profound words, lets hope these words are heard by those Muslim extremists.
