tears to think I would bee part of it and be so close to Him。

But  I  also  knew  He’d  e  no  closer  to  me  than  He  already  had;  He’d

inquired  about  me  from  His  angels  and  they’d  praised  me;  He  saw  me  as  a

loyal  servant  bound  to  His  mandments  and  prohibitions;  and  He  loved

me。

My mounting joy and flowing tears were abruptly poisoned by a nagging

doubt。 Guilt…ridden and impatient in my uncertainty; I asked Him:

“Over  the  last  twenty  years  of  my  life;  I’ve  been  influenced  by  the  infidel

illustrations  that  I  saw  in  Venice。  There  was  even  a  time  when  I  wanted  my

own portrait painted in that method and style; but I was afraid。 Instead; I later

had  Your  World;  Your  Subjects  and  Our  Sultan;  Your  Shadow  on  Earth;

about us would be made。 That everything transpired the way it was recorded

in  books  pleased  me。  I  recalled  from  my  readings  as  I  descended  that  I’d  be

reunited with my body during my burial。

But  I  quickly  understood  that  the  phenomenon  of  “reentering  my  lifeless

body” was just a figure of speech; thank goodness。 Despite their sorrow; the

dignified  funeral  congregation  that  filled  me  with  pride  was  astonishingly

organized as it shouldered my coffin after the prayers and descended into the

little  Hillock  Cemetery  beside  the  mosque。  From  above;  the  procession

appeared like a thin and delicate length of string。

Let  me  clarify  my  situation:  As  might  be  inferred  from  the  well…known

legend  of  Our  Prophet—which  states  “The  soul  of  the  faithful  is  a  bird  that

feeds from the trees of Heaven”—after death; the soul roams the firmament。
