Servant Of The Light

A belittled concept; requisite courtesy, the declaration of peace, the reassurance that you do not want to be an enemy. But:

Salaam is; the calm mind meeting the chaos of the hidden reflection, the slow confidence of naïve interactions, a stated intension, a mindful resolve and so Salaam.

Salaam is; the silence of a battle field when all are dead, the calm and tranquil stillness, a remnant of the startled earth, witness to such insanity and revulsion; this when held under tension, confiscate the distant instigators murderous intent, inhibited by the fear of personal annihilation, mortal fear establishes a clarity of reason of self preservation, and so Salaam.

Salaam is; the silent measured movement of the universe, orbits, within orbits, silently ordered, directed and manifest instant by instant, guided and obedient, the discipline of angels, and so Salaam.

Salaam is; the frozen black silence of the crushing depths of hell, burning hatred held firm in the tranquil crushing pressure of oblivion, raging insane emotional turmoil bubbling in serenity. The gentle shepherds work, guardians of hope, the troubled perceive only guards,  held in passionate hate, and so they remain in purgatory, until they take the reasoned path, and so salaam.

Salaam is; the binding unity of a nested single infinity, ingenious thoughts forming a unified reality, the harmony of truth held through conscious manifestation, the dichotomised instant of rupture then congregation, power beyond all reason ushered from a solitary consciousness, perpetuated on pure truth; truth being the culmination and balanced rendition of knowledge and so Salaam.

Salaam is; the altruist, philanthropic in thought and deed, giving without reserve on to a selfish multitude, who  vivaciously strip beyond the bone every morsel, taking everything and leaving debt, yet they discard it all with contempt, ridicule, and resentment, they see worthless and insane the actions of Salaam, but without recoil the altruistic say, Salaam.

Salaam is; the gentle lover, the caring father, the loyal friend, the protective brother, the outraged defender of the weak, the loving joy and consoling tragedy, the hamd in thought, the dua in deed, the salat in preparation,  the ibada of the person to a person, for the Ibada of Allah, so salaam.

Salaam is: the blinding light, bathing the blackness in its informative message, it enlightens all it touches, it takes its knowledge out into the void, and spreads the word of light, with a calm constant speed, measured; in its underlying truth it pulls along an ocean of knowledge, and presents the universe for inspection, with the wisdom of ages, and so Salaam.

Salaam is: the manifold underpinning the baryonic universe, an ocean of truth, swollen and raging, its power and intensity beyond all comprehension, its majesty, its subtlety, its precision, its conscious direction, all infinite; but held in unity through Allah’s boundless imagination, and this forms the dichotomy of manifestation and potential, and so Salaam.

Salaam is the mid point of all dichotomy, the middle road, the balanced state, the neutralising tensions, the maintained equilibrium of thought, the harmony between two opposites, the happiness between two miseries. The fleeting removal of dichotomy and the realisation of pure harmony; this is Salaam.
