	One bow to the Lord of East and West in humility another bow thats release arrows of fire and wisdom who knelt before a sage to receive the light arrow everything is wrapped up in muzammil shadow only if the Tree of Ridhwan or Tubba unveils to you..

	A Tree Knelt In Praise By Shaykh Hamza Yusuf I know that I shall never see A poem that bows quite like our tree A tree who like us loved to pray In adoration every day A tree who humbly knelt in praise To God and never chose to raise Itself above the other trees Instead remained as if on knees A tree who gave our scholars shade And never asked that it be paid A tree whose needles never hurt But gently fell upon the dirt A tree whose worth cannot be told Or ever lent or bought with gold A tree who showed us all its height With God by bowing with delight It taught us all to clearly see A Garden lies beneath a tree And then it showed us with a sigh That trees, like us, must also die In an age of folly, play and mirth A tree has died with brow on earth Source: http://www.zaytuna.org/articleDetails.asp?articleID=74
