Sacred Reflection

Al-Bāʿith is the One who awakens what was still.

He does not scold the dead places within you.

He touches them.

And they rise.

He is not the rush of revival.

He is the whisper in the tomb.

The warmth in a forgotten limb.

The first breath after holding everything in for too long.

In Sufi knowing, this Name is not only about the final resurrection.

It is about the daily ones.

The ways your soul is stirred from numbness.

The moments your eyes open again after despair said, “Sleep forever.”

He is the One who sends you when you thought you were done.

Who calls you when your voice is gone.

Who places a pulse where only silence remained.

Al-Bāʿith is not demanding.

He does not say, “Wake up now.”

He says, “I am with you in the stillness, and I am calling you when you’re ready.”

And even when you don’t answer,

He keeps breathing into you.

He awakens the courage that had no name.

He revives the faith that dried up and turned to ash.

He restores movement to the soul that thought it had made peace with giving up.

He does not wait for your readiness.

He begins the resurrection from within.

Parts Work Invitation

What part of you feels lifeless?

The one that says,

“I’m too tired to try again.”

“I’ve lost too much.”

“It’s safer to stay numb.”

Let that part be met now by Al-Bāʿith.

Not to be forced.

Not to be rushed.

But to be gently stirred, like earth touched by rain after a long drought.

Let it hear:

You do not need to rise all at once.

You only need to feel Me breathing inside you.

And when it is time, life will move through you again.

Let this part know:

Stillness is not failure.

It was a kind of death that protected you.

And now, a sacred awakening is beginning.

Not to pressure you back into doing,

but to bring your soul back into motion.

You are not being summoned for performance.

You are being stirred because something holy still lives inside you.

And it wants to move again.

Al-Bāʿith does not only raise bodies.

He raises will.

Hope.

Trust.

Song.

Let this part feel:

Even the numbness is holy ground for resurrection.

Even now, God breathes.

And what He breathes into

cannot stay buried forever.
