from Immortal Echoes, Mortal Words · host Rasoul Rahbari-Ghazani
Host: Rasoul Rahbari-Ghazani Co-host: Reyhaneh Davoodi-Kahaki Consultant: Mohammad Davoodi Music: Amirmohammad Monjezi https://www.youtube.com/@amirmohamdmonjezi 🌙 In this episode of the Shi‘i Mysticism Podcast, we explore one of the most beautiful, elegant, and profound supplications in Shi‘i spirituality: Munājāt al-ʿĀrifīn, “The Whispered Prayer of the Knowers of God.” This intimate prayer, written by Imam Zayn al-Abidin a.s. (Imam Sajjad, the fourth Shii Imam), blends theology, gnosis (irfan), and Islamic spirituality into a living path of inner transformation. The whispered prayer teaches that the true path to divine knowledge begins with humility before God’s Essence, recognizing the poverty of human intellect before the Infinite. It then invites the seeker into divine love, ethical purification, and spiritual nearness, painting a vision of hearts set aflame with longing and souls illuminated by the light of God.
