Sharjah Ruler encourages constant remembrance of God

His Highness highlighted the importance of incorporating this practice into daily life, sharing that he often expresses his faith in his poetry, starting with verses like "Glory be to He who raised the sky without pillars."

During a phone intervention via the Sharjah Broadcasting Authority’s "Direct Line" programme, with Mohammed Hassan Khalaf, Director General of the Authority, His Highness remarked, "I have recited a poem beginning with, 'Glory be to He who raised the sky without pillars,' and repeating such words offers meaningful benefits to people."
 
His Highness reiterated the value of these words in fostering a spiritual connection. His Highness said:

Exalted is He who without columns the sky raised
From compacted clay man made

From His Divine Spirit into him breathed 
True knowledge and reason to guide

For him angels in prostration knelt 
Except the cursed devil, the commands disobeyed

O creature! what seduced you from your Lord
Graced you with mind, in due proportion He fashioned

You forsook the Right Path, Satan you followed
Who with security and eternity falsely promised

Descend to Earth and there be 
Of rule, or vile and misfortune

If sublime, with soul in Paradise you rest
And, if lowly with it, in lowest hell is your seat

Mind against loss of self is a defender 
When with triviality the self, merry in abuse

But my people, amidst this, were away 
From life, with poetry engaged

Ignorance so deeply intensified/increased
Like nerves to body intimate

The Prophet with the Quran is a guide
Some believers, others apostate

The best of nations then emerged 
For guidance and providence people called

But ignorance of today is unlike
That of many ages passed

Now all abjectness we perpetrate
To Muhammad ill deeds we attribute

Now, one another we futilely kill 
For no reason or good intent

Now, so widely the door we open 
For whoever to Islam aggress

Now, homes with inhabitants we demolish
Residents either martyrs of homeless

Life for our state severely cry
At misery of our state we rejoice

O Ummah of Islam to whom refuge I seek 
Except to God, Who in every prayer I call

Peace be upon homes and inhabitants
From the Lord of Universe, The One, The Absolute

His Highness the Ruler of Sharjah concluded by wishing goodness and prosperity to the Arab and Islamic nations.
