Sukoot-e-Qalam: A Tale of Anguish and Compulsion
Mufti Muhammad Tasleemuddin Al-Mahmoodi ✍️
Today, as I pick up the pen, the state of my heart is completely different.
Words are cooperating, but emotions seem to be scattering.
The scarcity of time, increasing engagements, and the diverse responsibilities of life have now become so dominant that the pen no longer has the leisure that was once its identity and distinction.
Circumstances have taken such a turn
that time seems to be slipping through my fingers.
The engagements of life have established such a strong siege that the pen does not have the freedom
without which expression does not achieve justice and balance.
It is under this compulsion that I have to announce my departure from this platform today.
Insha'Allah
Now, writings will not be presented here with the same continuity and frequency,
but rather occasionally, on a special occasion or in accordance with history, this voice may be heard again.
While writing these lines, I feel a tremor in my hands,
because this is not just a collection of words,
but a habit, an attachment, and a spiritual connection
that is currently going into the background.
I am deeply grateful to all those friends
who used to wait for every writing,
read them with love, appreciated them, and remembered them in their prayers.
Your sincere attention has been the real asset and strength of this journey.
This departure is by no means a final farewell, but an inevitable limitation of circumstances.
If time grants respite, then this same pen and these same feelings will return among you with the same intensity and sincerity.
I pray that the Lord Almighty grants steadfastness to this relationship
and make this temporary silence a means of goodness and blessing.
