Taraweeh
In the stillness of the night,
as the moon rises high,
the faithful gather to pray,
to observe Taraweeh, a blessed rite.
Each bow and prostration,
brings them closer to the divine,
as they recite the verses,
from the Holy Quran, so sublime.
The sweet fragrance of incense,
fills the air with a calming scent,
as they stand and bow,
in complete reverence and content.
Their hearts overflow with devotion,
as they seek forgiveness and mercy,
for their sins and transgressions,
in the hope of attaining divine mercy.
As the Imam leads the prayers,
the congregation follows in unison,
as they listen to the words,
and absorb the wisdom, one by one.
The rhythm of the prayers,
echoes through the halls,
as the faithful bow and rise,
and answer to the divine call.
In these sacred moments of worship,
they find solace and peace,
as they strive to purify their souls,
and their faith, they increase.
And as they conclude their prayers,
they emerge with renewed strength,
to face the challenges of life,
and to walk the path of righteousness, at length.
