The Role Model of Piety

About The Role Model of Piety

Introduction

What a blessing! The presence of a sky brimming with clouds of knowledge over the desert of human ignorance; the presence of a loving teacher, overflowing with mercy and wisdom — the fruit of a noble and praiseworthy resolve; and this is the grace of the Creator, who sent down the rain of guidance to elevate the crown of His flower. Special gratitude to Him, who dispatched guiding scholars from the land of His chosen ones to the abodes of lovers. May the companions be blessed with the fortune of listening with their hearts to their guidance.
