The Maverick Dervish (Anthology)

Not a single day passes in lovers’ lives without tears, reflecting each other’s longing in the ancient pain-mirror— reminds Jaihoon.

A Divine lover may naturally envy another, especially when one is blessed with a greater proximity with the Beloved, relates Mujeeb Jaihoon

Blaming the Almighty for His punishments is nonsensical as He infinitely forgives their failures, asserts Mujeeb Jaihoon

We invoke Allah with every breath and every branch we shake hoping for His Merciful refuge when others see us with rage—Mujeeb writes Jaihoon

God’s lovers, who enrich each other, melt as solitary dew when separated from one another— writes Jaihoon on spiritual kinship.

Not always Destiny brings ashore illustrious souls who connect with Divine. One seeker’s journey may benefit others too– hopes Mujeeb Jaihoon.

God’s lovers employ various metaphors and symbolic actions to hide their love of the Divine– reveals Jaihoon about their ‘cover-up games’.

Even as we feel pain over the belated reply, we shall remain persistent in our plea to the Most Merciful –– insists Mujeeb Jaihoon.
