All done! Your details have now been sent. Add a comment. Add comment. This is a joyous message unto all created things! Say: This, verily, is a night during which a pre-ordained measure of bounty and grace hath been decreed in the Scrolls of celestial glory and certitude, so that sorrow may be dispelled from all created things forever more.
Therefore, rejoice in thy hearts, O ye who hath entered the realms of being and creation! At this, the Herald of the Spirit crieth out in the midmost heart of eternity — the center of transcendent glory and sublimity. This is by the grace of God, the Omnipotent, the Beneficent!
By God! The Hand of Power, endowed with ascendant sovereignty, hath opened the musk-scented seal. Verily, this bounty is from God, the Exalted, the Beneficent! Through the Beauty of the All-Glorious, the hand of the Divine Joseph hath borne round the cup of pomegranate wine. Therefore, O peoples of the world, hasten and partake of this Salsabil of everlasting life. Say: O concourse of the lovers of God! The unveiled and naked Beauty of the Beloved hath shone forth. O concourse of the loved ones of God!
The ages have persisted, the cycles have repeated, and the Lights have rejoiced, for God hath shed the splendor of His effulgent glory from the branches of every Tree.
Bestir yourselves, O chosen ones of God, for the spirits have emerged, the divine winds have been diffused, the likenesses of God have been torn asunder, and the Tongues of Eternity have sung upon the boughs of every Tree.
The veils have been rent asunder, the dense coverings have been consumed by fire, the abstruse allusions have been unveiled, and the subtle signs have been unraveled by Him Who is endowed with Power and Omnipotence. Rejoice and silently conceal this secret and hidden Symbol, lest your foes learn of that which ye have quaffed from this wine of rapturous joy.
O people of the Bayan! I swear by God! The favour of God is fulfilled, His mercy perfected, and the light of the divine Countenance hath shone forth with exultation and rapture.
He also demonstrated extreme devotion to helping the poor. He was exiled for 40 years and died in the Holy Land in There are too many to include here, so I urge you to read them all for yourself. At dawn, on the second day of the Islamic Year, on 12 November , his wife Khadijih Khanum gave birth to the eldest of her surviving sons. At this very hour the light of the Promised One has broken, and is shedding illumination upon the world. His mother was completely astonished, and before long it became obvious to everyone around, that her Child was entirely different from other children.
He greatly loved outdoor life, spending most of His time in the garden or fields. Extremely kind and generous, He had an incredible power of attraction, which was felt by all.
People always crowded around Him, children were devoted to Him, and the ministers and people of the Court would gather about Him. It was usual for them to say, that such a child will not live beyond maturity. He is the Well-Beloved! God willing you are abiding restfully beneath the canopy of Divine mercy, and the tabernacle of His bounty. Although to outward seeming, I am little and cannot write, yet because this Illiterate One is clinging to the Divine Lote tree, He can read without knowledge and write without being taught.
And this fact is clear and evident in the spiritual realm to those endowed with insight. Those who are outside have been, and still are, unaware of this mystery. He was bathing in the sea, and began to swim in a vast, limitless ocean; His body shone out, and illuminated the sea! Above the waters, His long, jet-black locks, stood forth, floating in great profusion above the waves in all directions.
Large numbers of fish gathered around Him, each fish holding fast to the end of a hair with its mouth. There were every kind of fish: large fish, small fish, white and black: and wherever He swam, they followed the light of His face.
Such a vast number of fish clinging so tightly, caused no damage: not even a hair was lost from His head. The festivities lasted for seven days and nights, and on the final day, there was a puppet show. Arrange the seats at once! Several groups began to arrive and take their places, the first wearing hats and sashes, the second wielding battleaxes, and the third of footmen and executioners with batons.
Finally, the king himself appeared in majesty and splendour, crowned with a royal diadem, bearing himself with unspeakable superiority and grandeur.

Celebrate by doing something special. Plan a special family experience to celebrate the day and make it memorable, such as picking fruit you can share with friends or trying something new together. The joy and love you feel and express will go a long way in showing your children how special the day is.
Or you can host your own small gathering. Music can touch our souls deeply and allow us to express emotions beyond the spoken word. You can find a large list of songs many with recordings so you can learn them on the Ruhi Resources website or the Core Curriculum music page. His teachings guide each of us in our daily lives and set the foundation for world unity and peace.
Spending a few minutes dedicated to filling up with thankfulness for this special day can be powerfully moving.
