Chaand mubarak! Eid mubarak!
Hmmm. I just went out and looked for the crescent. I found Mars in its tiny dazzling glory. Wherever the Moon was, though, it saw me. And it sees the whole Earth. I had to ask a few things of the Moon, I had to ask if it sees…
Well. I know it sees me. And it sees… it sees the Earth. All of it. Every one on it.
Now, you are nowhere to be spotted on the sky, oh Chaand! What else do I say?
I said a quiet prayer, and came back in.
Allah is Beautiful, and Hu Loves Beauty!
When the primordial Question, "Am I not your Lord?" reached my perception, I remember, I had said, "Yes! And You are Beautiful! And I love You!" That became the anthem of my soul. Then I was put to sleep. Now I wake up. This is a chronicle of my awakening.
