My brother sent this to me today. BarakAllahu fih. SubhanAllah...it really puts things into perspective.
Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 3a - Part 3b
God is the Light of the heavens and the earth;
the likeness of His Light is as a niche wherein is a lamp
the lamp in a glass, the glass as it were a glittering star
kindled from a Blessed Tree
an olive that is neither of the East nor of the West
whose oil is well-nigh luminous, though fire scarce touched it;
Light upon Light!
God guides to His Light whom He will.
And God speaks to mankind in symbols
for God is knower of all things.
Quran - Chapter 24, Verse 35

SubhanAllah. This really does put everything into perspective. This is one my favorire lecture of Shaikh Hamza Yusuf (May Allah protect him). Everytime I hear this lecture it makes me think how much we take this beautiful deen for granted. May Allah strengthen our imaan.
