iconSufa 3 - The Narrative (Al-Qasas)

1O you who believe! Let it be said: Al-Mu’id;
2The Restorer; The One who Reinstates and who brings back All;
3And the third name of Allah, the Infinite, the Unique, the All Knowing.
4Thus nothing is lost from the story of humanity;
5The story of our beginnings;
6The story of how we came to be men and women;
7From the soil of the Earth and the light of the Stars;
8The story of Divine influence and our relation;
9Even if false words and false claims be inserted;
10Nothing may be erased, destroyed or corrupted;
11Once created in the mind and dream of Allah, it cannot be uncreated.
12Allah is the ultimate narrator;
13Our relation to Allah and all his creation is the ultimate Narrative.
14Some say that we are cursed, we are fallen and that we must atone;
15Yet such narratives are an insult of our divine creator as if to claim that the creator of the universe would willingly make an error.
16Other stories speak of only a few having authority from some deity and all others no more than animals;
17Thus, some such as the Umay-Yad seek to rule not just tyrants but as gods of madness.
18Nothing could be more insulting to Allah than to speak as if we are born of higher classes and lesser classes instead of one family.
19Verily, we are one, we are of one father, one mother, all.
20O you who believe! Listen then to the truth of your heart, let it be your guide as to the narrative.
21Let not those who wish to control by fear spread their false narrative.
