Man Kunto Maula: Rehmat-e-Nusrat | Live at Windmills Craftsworks, Bengaluru

Eid Mubaraq!
"Man Kunto Maula," crafted by the illustrious Sufi poet Amir Khusrau, dances with the celestial essence of Persian verse. This enchanting ode, adorned with the pearls of wisdom, echoes through the ages, captivating hearts in the divine embrace of spiritual yearning.
In the tapestry of its words, "Man Kunto Maula" weaves the threads of divine authority and transcendent guidance. The phrase itself translates to "Whoever accepts me as a master" and is attributed to the Prophet Muhammad, indicating the importance of spiritual mentorship in the Sufi tradition.
With the tender brushstrokes of poetic mastery, Khusrau paints a portrait of the soul's journey, where the quest for truth and union unfolds amidst the melody of the cosmos. "Man Kunto Maula" stands as a timeless beacon, illuminating the path of seekers with the radiance of spiritual wisdom and the warmth of divine love.
