rose petals

Author's name: Mustafa Sadiq Al-Rafe'i

On rose petals, Al-Rafei scatters drops of the dew of love mixed with the fragrance of his two beloveds' beauty in his book, a collection of thoughts scattered throughout the philosophy of love and beauty he created. He describes one of his own states and establishes a new history in the lines of his life, entitled "Letters from a Lover to His Two Lovers." Al-Rafei indicated that he did not devote these letters to his first love, but rather included with them his Lebanese lover, from whose beauty he derived the words of his book, "Hadith Al-Qamar." In this book, he blends the philosophy of love with the Sufi outlook in seeking that love, and through it, he carries a creative energy that depicts the eloquence of the art of composition in describing the language of emotional love. In this work, Al-Rafei combines the talent of the writer, who formulates his feelings and emotions and deposits them in an artistic form, with the logic of the philosopher, who believes that the pinnacle of logic in love lies within his own mind.
