My beloved,
Have you read On the Reality of Love by Sheikh Suhrawardi?
I have.
Honestly, I found it hard to understand.
I didn’t grasp much.
Yet, I know how Love brought Zuleikha to the slave market,
and why Sheikh, among all the historical women in love, chose Zuleikha as the bearer of love,
even though history often criticizes her.
With gratitude to God, Love, and you, my sacred man, I understand her now.
She rises, a radiant archetype of the devoted soul.
