Breath of the Merciful

"Verily I feel nafas ar rehman (the breath of the Merciful) coming to me from Yemen"

-Saying of the Prophet peace be upon him in regards to Uwais al qarani r.a. 

The dearest friend of the Beloved of God:
In the lands of Yemen - Uwais al-Qarani.
He does not lie; he does not eat forbidden food,
In the lands of Yemen - Uwais al Qarani.
In the morning he gets up and takes his way,
He recites in dhikr God's thousand and one names;
With the word Allahu Akbar he drives the camels
In the lands of Yemen-Uwais al Qarani.

- By Yunus Emre
