In praying to Allah Ta’ala the Lovers have no other objective Than to have the pleasure of whispering secretly in communion with Him. This secret talk is attained at the time of sorrow and weeping and these sighs of crying and lamentation in His presence is well loved by Him. Maulana Rumi (Rahmatullah Alaihe) says: I cry and weep before my Beloved, for that appears well pleasing to Him And in both worlds our crying and sorrowful sighs are loved by Him. Blessed is that eye that cries in the remembrance of the Beloved And blessed is that heart that is embroiled in His love. For as long as the baby does not cry, milk does not flow from the mothers breast. And as long as the clouds do not shed raindrops, gardens do not become green. By the crying of clouds, gardens become green and fertile And as much as the candle cries, so much it increases in light. Where the tears flow, mercy prevails And where water flows, greenery and fertility prevail. Allah Ta’ala equates the tears of the sinner in grief To the blood flowing from a martyr. Crying and weeping is a great wealth And the Mercy of Allah Ta’ala is a great blessing. The wealth of this world consists of gold and silver. The capital in Allah Ta’alas sight is Love and two crying eyes. One Saintly person has said: O Beloved, for the eyes to stay awake for anyone save You, is a waste, And to cry over anyones parting save Yours, is useless!
