Here a medieval Muslim mystic records his living meditation on becoming one with God, where he likens himself to a moth leaping into flame: In that bright instant, wings aflame, Reduced to fragments of his name, The moth-ash shows his bodys form Where no mark will distinguish him. Rumi wrote three centuries later on Al-Hallajs words, I am God, : People imagine that it is a presumptive claim, whereas I find it is really a presumptive claim to say I am the slave of God; for, I am God is an expression of great humility. The man who says I am the slave of God affirms two existences, his own and Gods; but he that says, I am God, has made himself non-existent and has given himself up, and says I am God, that is, I am naught, He is all; there is no being but Gods. This is the extreme of humility and self-abasement.About the AuthorJabez L.
