The place of longing

"The Sheikh sat absent-mindedly among his disciples, with his eyes closed. Some of them said: The Sheikh flies to heaven and returns. Others said: He is addressing beings from another world, which no one else can hear. When he opened his eyes, he said to them: I strive every night to regain a melodious melody that soothes my soul." "For many years, but he eludes me." "Whenever he listened to the pocket of his heart, he heard his father''s cries that frightened him when he was young, the squeak of the pen on the exam paper, the blaring of the horn of the police vehicle, the crack of the whip of an arrogant jailer, the bleating of a young goat that was alone with a hungry wolf in their field one distant night, and the flick of his hand that came out empty of His pocket after his small salary ran out. However, he had to be reassured that he would be saved from the threat after death. *** This is a narrative book, containing new Sufi shrines, combining spiritual manifestations, social conditions, philosophical reflections, literary tastes, psychological conditions, religious rituals, and political circumstances. It is a text that crosses all types of writing, and cannot be classified on the level of form, but its content can be easily described as a natural expression of man''s longing for love, freedom, justice, and tranquility, in a brutal society.
