Assalamu'alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu! It's been a while, here's a reflection of how i cope up with life and all the hardships that i go through, wallahi, in the remembrance of Allah our hearts our eased.
Arabic text by my pretty Egyptian calligrapher, Nora Elgalad <3
Zikrullah, remembrance of Allah.
Types of Zikr:
1. Practical
Practical Zikr, also known as "Zikr-e-Faily", is performed with one's obedient actions. It comprises of obedience to:
i) The commandments of Allah (swt) i.e. Prayer, Fasting, Hajj, umrah, Zakaat, charity etc
ii) The Sunnah of our Holy Prophet (saw) i.e. eating, drinking, sleeping, walking, talking, dressing etc.
2. Verbal
Verbal Zikr, also known as "Zikr-e-Lisani", is observed with one's tongue. It comprises of:
i) Loud zikr; i.e. Azan, Takbir, Collective zikr etc ii) Low tone zikr, i.e. Tasbihat, masnoon duas etc
3. Silent
Silent Zikr, also known as "Qalbi Zikr", "Zikr-e-Khafi" and "Daimi Zikr" is performed within one self.. There are many stages to silent zikr. The first and foremost of which is Qalbi Zikr: Remembrance of Allah (swt) from within the heart.
Most, if not all, of us are familiar with both practical and verbal forms of zikr and we'll have at some point practised them within our life. Silent zikr, on the other hand, is less well known. This is because this form of zikr is practised and taught only by the Friends of Allah (swt).
thank you my dear for amazing art work of calligraphy
awesome work
However, I don't mean to be a trouble maker but the calligraphy belongs to another calligraphy artist.
He gets really upset when people use his work without his permission!
