Auzu Billaahi Minash Shaitaanir Rajim
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem
ASALATU WASALAMU ALAYKA YA RASULLALLAH
Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu
Hajj of Shaykh Shibli Rehmatullahi Alaih
When Sayyiduna Shibli Rehmatullahi Alaih reached ‘Arafat, he Rehmatullahi Alaih remained silent altogether. He did not utter even a single word till sunset. When he proceeded towards Mina and crossed into the boundary of Haram, tears welled up in his eyes and he recited the following couplets weeping. The translation of the couplets is as follows:
1. I am proceeding in such a state that I have set the seal of Your love on my heart so that no one else can enter it.
2. Would that I am able enough to keep my eyes closed until my eyes would behold You!
3. Some of the lovers love only their beloved ones whereas some love others as well.
4. When tears well up in the eyes and flow onto the cheeks, it becomes obvious as to who is really weeping and who is just acting. (Raud ur Riyahin)
