I Thrive on Your Love-Bread

A lover constantly struggles to maintain a spiritual connection amidst earthly temptations, writes Mujeeb Jaihoon.

How shall I Greet Your Beloved Great?

Mujeeb Jaihoon is in two minds whether to approach the Beloved Meem robed as a royal or ragged as a beggar, in these verses written at Medina.

Humanity’s Hero: Here and Hereafter

Envisioning the afterlife where the Prophet shall unite the constellation of humanity and march for their salvation.

I Lured Shirin, You killed Farhad

Jaihoon’s poem explores the intertwined nature of love and pain, using classic references to illustrate their inseparable bond.

I saw a light

Although we remain soiled by the sinful dust, the sight of a devout servant of God will invoke His Love in our hearts- writes Mujeeb Jaihoon

I am late, Your Mercy so early

We may be forgetful of the Lord, but He will never abandon us and as we remain the dark night, His light shows us the way, writes Jaihoon

I Dare You to Love Me Not

Jaihoon’s poem explores the philosophical torment of doubt in love, grappling with the fear of loss versus a life devoid of love.

I Trusted You with all my Trust

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

I remember, Medina’s Mimber

The very thought of the Beloved soak our eyes and heart in love, even as we are unaware of its magical impact- writes Mujeeb Jaihoon

How sweet is HIS Fear

A seeker without a spiritual comprade is worth no more than a rotten crop wrought with drought and despair- Mujeeb Jaihoon’s poem on spiritual kinship
