Madinah quotes:
Mohadissa Jaffer from Peterborough Jamaat, UK, quotes:
"Being in the illuminated presence of Bibi Masooma (a.s) on the last Thursday night of Rajab caused tears to well in our eyes before Dua Kumayl had even begun. The gentle humming of Istighfar could be heard throughout the moonlit courtyard as thousands of hopeful slaves turned towards The Almighty, arms raised, in pure devotion."
Husein al-Baldawi and Mircad Poricanin, Bosnia:
"The recitation of Dua Kumail made me feel very happy and allowed me to fulfil my obligation to Hazrat Masuma (AS). The atmosphere was very vibrant and engaging and I have never experienced such a recitation of Dua Kumail before. The meaning of the Dua is very deep and emotional. This allows me to reflect on my life and identify ways in which I can strengthen my connection with the Almighty. Upon leaving the haram I was feeling a sense of sadness as I am not sure when I will be able to listen and recite Dua Kumail in the manner it was recited. I hope and pray that I am given the opportunity to visit the shrine of Hazrat Masuma for Dua Kumail again." |
