Idries Shah was my first proper introduction to Sufism (the mystical branch of Islam) — not merely as an art form, but as an art of living.

It is humbling to be invited by his foundation to submit my own spiritual sayings as well as to this brief interview, below: https://idriesshahfoundation.org/interview/

I hope you enjoy read,
Yahia 🙏🏼

Thank you, @arabsteem, for reading, and sharing. Sufism is a life-long journey, and influences every aspect of my art and being. (Forgive me, for not writing back in Arabic, as I don't know how to, even though I can read it a little bit...)

I like your presentation

Thanks, for your attention.

Congratulations on having your work represented! I know it must be exciting for you :D
"A cluttered mind makes for a poor mirror" is my favorite of the ones you have above.

Bless you, @caleblailmusik 🙏🏼 It’s a kind of coming Homecoming for me, to share with my teachers what I’m learning from them... But, I also realize how much work remains to be done, off the page (where I’m still very much a beginner)!

Hope you enjoy link to full article, when you’ve time :) image

I'll definitely check it out!

thank you @yahialababidi
I really like the writing related to poetry ....
I am also a Muslim from Aceh
