The light of the Furqan
Is the brightest of all lights;
Holy is He from Whom
This river of spiritual light issued forth.
Is the brightest of all lights;
Holy is He from Whom
This river of spiritual light issued forth.
The tree of faith in divine unity
Was about to wither away;
All of a sudden, this pure spring
Gushed forth from the unseen.
O Allah! Your Furqan is a universe in itself;
It contains everything that was ever needed.
We searched the whole world,
We rummaged through all the shops;
We rummaged through all the shops;
But we found only this one goblet
Containing the true knowledge of the Divine.
Containing the true knowledge of the Divine.
The similitude of this light cannot be found
In the whole wide world;
For it is unique in every thing,
And matchless in every quality.
And matchless in every quality.
At first we thought that the Furqan
Is like the rod of Moses;
Then when we reflected further,
And found every word to be a Messiah.
And found every word to be a Messiah.
Blind as they are,
It is their own fault;
It is their own fault;
Otherwise this light has shone
As brightly as a hundred suns.
As brightly as a hundred suns.
How pathetic is the life
Of the people in this world,
Whose hearts remained blind
Even in the presence of this Light.
Of the people in this world,
Whose hearts remained blind
Even in the presence of this Light.
[Brahin-e-Ahmadiyya, Ruhani Khaza’in Vol.1, pp. 305-306]
Furqan means: ‘The one which makes distinction between truth and falsity’. It is another name for the Holy Qur’an
