Rabi’a al-Adawiyya

“O God, the night has passed and the day has dawned. How I long to know if You have accepted my prayers or if You have rejected them. Therefore console me, for it is Yours to console this state of mine. You have given me life and cared for me, and Yours is the Glory. If You want to, drive me from Your Door, yet would I not forsake it for the love that I bear in my heart towards You.”
