The Prayers of

Hazrat Pir-o-Murshid `Inayat Khan

 
 

Rasul

Warner of coming dangers,
Wakener of the world from sleep,
Deliverer of the Message of God,
Thou art our Savior.
The sun at the dawn of creation,
The light of the whole universe,
The fulfillment of God's purpose,
Thou the life eternal,
we seek refuge in thy loving enfoldment.
Spirit of Guidance,
Source of all beauty, and
Creator of harmony;
Love, Lover, and Beloved Lord,
Thou art our Divine Ideal.

Amen


The word "Rasul" is pronounced as ra-SOOL (with the emphasis on the last syllable) and denotes a major prophet, a "Divine Messanger" whose Message is for the whole world.

This prayer is usually recited by Mureeds (Initiates) of the Sufi Order after the Sangatha reading during a Sufi class.
