Remember, all that is out is in, and all that is in is revealed outside (of us).
Usually, people just stop at the outside, and yes, should probably yearn for such love story,
while thinking why it happens not to them but only in the movies.
i even read one comment which said, "ah yeah, but that is a movie you can do whatever you want"
yeah, but the writer is a human being too, and it is the produce of its mind to be able to turn its character as he wants.
why not for a change we do same with our life?
i don't think that people do not wish or seek for love,
there is all kind of love people seek for.
but the best of it, is true love. The Eternal one.
and it DOES surely have as much heavenly feeling than any such love story movie,
actually, more than ever, for it is Heavenly Love.
It is just good, to start seeing them as an invitation to turn inwards FIRST,
then, once we did it, we reflect it outside too, into our own life.
Exalted is He who created
all pairs - from what the earth grows and from themselves and
from that which they do not know.
(holy quran, surah yasseen, ayah 36)
This i always believed it.
but zooming in ourself first is the key, till one does not love our self truly, one cannot never display that love outside.
it is only because a person is oblivious to that inner joy, inner love, that it will be oblivious to see Love passing by. Because Love just gives love, it does not compel, it will never compel you to love.
so what you will see as a casual moment that passed, actually, it was surely a moment of Love that you missed, only because you were blind to it.
La ilaha illa Allah
There is no god but Allah
Allah is Al Wadud, The Love
As Samad, The Eternal
Ash Shahid, The Witness, The Ever-present,
we cannot give lie to Him being not so,
if we see not love, it is because we need to turn inward to find it,
it is our shortcoming that we see outward, not His lack of Presence.
We are the soul, in a body ,
on its journey, literally speaking, to ascend to unite with the Spirit - Ruh of Allah - which is the Breath of God
and in that very Breathe, is The Life, Al Hayy
that is what is about the Union talked of here and there.
Knowing that we are ALL bearing this Breathe of God inside of us :
"When I have fashioned him [Adam] (in due proportion) and breathed into him a Ruh from Me, fall ye down in obediance unto him." (holy quran 15:29)
And [mention] when your Lord took from the children of Adam - from their
loins - their descendants and made them testify of themselves, [saying
to them], "Am I not your Lord?" They said, "Yes, we have testified."
[This] - lest you should say on the day of Resurrection, "Indeed, we
were of this unaware."
(holy quran, The Heights, verse 172)
Who is unaware that it has The Breathe, The Command of His Lord into Him?
The children of Adam, Adam is this creation of Allah made of mud, that body.
that body is given life, and has into it, this very trust of God to which we acknowledge the authority given to it by Allah IN US.
As soul we bow down to the Ruh of Allah in us. and thus we TESTIFY of OURSELVES.
We do NOT testify OUT of our selves.
For when i had enough of seeking truth and did not understand what was real surrender, what is true submission.
i decided to read again the story of Abraham, who has FOUND his Lord, when he was seeking Him.
He looked at the sun, at the moon, at the stars, yes : ) even at the statues created by men's hands that they worshiped, and concluded for each of them, they are NOT lasting. they canNOT be The Lord
when he rejected all of this, all of this was OUT of his self,
suddenly he said :
But when it[the sun] set, he said: "O my people! I am indeed free from all that you join as partners in worship with Allah. Verily, I have turned my face towards Him Who has created the heavens and the earth Hanifan (Islamic Monotheism, i.e. worshipping none but Allah Alone) and I am not of the Al Mushrikeen (those who worship others besides Allah)."
Then, i wondered, he found Allah. but where?
he looked outside all the way, and found nothing worthy of being worshipped. worthy of True Love :
When the night covered him over with darkness he saw a star. He said: "This is my lord." But when it set, he said: "I like not that those who set."
how can one be dependent upon a power that itself needs its rest, set or is not there when one needs it?
even less an object to which we GIVE power such as status, that is such a waste.
to give importance to that which we have created.
YET, it is what we do, in everyday life, we are self-important, by extension all that we touch, we think is important, it is ever-lasting, if it breaks or know some misfortune we cry, while it was in the first place created by us.
that is silly.
Allah has breathe His OWN Breathe in us, in ibn Adam (=sons of Adam) as a soul in body, we are completely unaware that we have even to start that journey back to our origin, The Spirit.
For it is at that VERY point, that WE HAD TESTIFIED to its presence in us, to this trust.
and Once we rememeber this, hence the other name of quran (Az-zikr = The Reminder),
it reminds of what? of something that we have FORGOTTEN. and where is this Knowledge, this certainty, that Allah gave to Abraham (peace be upon him)?
Thus did We show Abraham the kingdom of the heavens and the earth that he be one of those who have Faith and certainty.
http://www.islamawareness.net/Prophets/ibrahim.html
So WHERE DID ABRAHAM TURN once he turned outside and rejected everything and found Allah?
INSIDE.
There HAS to be this REMEMBERING coming from INSIDE of us , AS truly as it has been PUT , BREATHED into us. who can dare say it is false?
for us, to bow, testify, as we did :
"When I have fashioned him [Adam] (in due proportion) and breathed into him a Ruh from Me, fall ye down in obediance unto him." (holy quran 15:29)
And [mention] when your Lord took from the children of Adam - from their loins - their descendants and made them testify of themselves, [saying to them], "Am I not your Lord?" They said, "Yes, we have testified." [This] - lest you should say on the day of Resurrection, "Indeed, we were of this unaware."
and those who have testified after having remembered that which they have forgotten, with certainty,
then all the heavens and the earth are theirs :
this is the vicegerancy that we have been trusted with.
and the meek shall inherit the world.
That is about the soul remembering its origin, in the spirit. that is the real yes real true love story, for that which is Eternal and never leaves.
Hindi Lyrics Translation
Mere Haath Mein
Here is the song 'Mere Haath Mein' from movie 'Fanaa'.mere haath mein tera haath ho
When my hand is in yours,
saari jannatein mere saath ho
all of paradise is mine.

all of paradise is mine.
tere dil mein meri saanson ko panaah miljaaye
May my sighs find a shelter in your heart;
tere ishq mein meri jaan fanaa ho jaaye
may your love annihilate my life.
jitne paas hai khushbu saans ke
As close as fragrance is to breath,
jitne paas honthon ke sargam
as close as melody is to lips,
jaise saath hai karwat yaad ke
as close as the twists and turns of thought,
jaise saath baahon ke sangam
as close as arms entwined,
jitne paas paas khwaabon ke nazar
as close to me as my dreams,
utne paas tu rahana hamsafar
stay that close to me, my life's companion.
tu jo paas ho phir kya yeh jahaan
When you're with me, what use have I for the world?
tere pyaar mein ho jaayuun fanaa
May your love annihilate me.
mere haath mein tera haath ho
When my hand is in yours,
saari jannatein mere saath ho
all of paradise is mine.
rone de aaj hamko tu aankhein sujaane de
Let me cry today; let my eyes swell.
baahon mein le le aur khud ko bhig jaane de
Take me in your arms and let me drench you with my tears.
hai jo sine mein qaid dariya voh chuut jaayega
The river imprisoned in my breast will break free,
hai itna dard ke tera daaman bhig jaayega
and the pain is so great, it will wash down to your feet.
jitne paas paas dharkan ke hai raaz
As close as my secrets are to my heart,
jitne paas buundon ke baadal
as close as raindrops are to the clouds,
jaise saath saath chanda ke hai raat
as close as the moon is to the night,
jitne paas nazaron ke kaajal
as close as kohl is to the eyes,
jitne paas paas saagar ke lahar
as close as the waves are to the sea,
utne paas tu rahana hamsafar
stay that close to me, my life's companion.
tu jo paas ho phir kya yeh jahaan
When you're with me, what use have I for the world?
tere pyaar mein ho jaayuun fanaa
May your love annihilate me.
mere haath mein tera haath ho
When my hand is in yours,
saari jannatein mere saath ho
all of paradise is mine.
adhuuri saans thi
My breath was incomplete;
dharkan adhuuri thi
my heartbeat was incomplete;
adhuure ham
I was incomplete.
magar ab chaand puura hai falak pe
But now the moon is full in the sky,
aur ab puure hain ham
and we are made whole.

i wonder if you still thought that love story was outside first ?
i wonder if you still thought that love story was outside first ?
or inside and then it transpired outside?
For that which is inside has to transpire outside at one point or another,
because the spirit is in everyone. we are literally bathing in it, but are unware of it.
for sure, if we set running for love outside without having fixed it inside, it shall always be like running after a mirage in a desert.while our soul mate is always in front of our eyes for us to join it.
