Amaan 3
Amaan means sanctuary. It lends protection, security for those who suffer. We pray for all those in need, in harm’s way, who have endured desparete conditions, immense losses, and indescribable agony.
Below are phrases taken from Pir Zia’s regular online publications, The Zephyr. You can read his and others’ missives in full.
“Sanctuary,” our prayer for the protection for all lives in imminent danger…
Reciting Amaan expresses our ardent and urgent prayer for the complete stoppage of the systematic destruction of human lives in these regions, the free flow of vital aid in the form of food, water, and medicine, the expeditious rebuilding of hospitals, schools, and neighborhoods, and the appropriate addressing of the rights of individuals and communities. Please continue to keep the living thought of peace and justice at the forefront of your mind and heart and continue the daily recitation of Amaan until the harrowing bloodshed ends, and it cannot end soon enough.
…offered up for those under falling bombs, remains a daily focus.
Sanctuary for the slain, for those with crushed limbs, for those who have lost dearly loved ones, and for the enormous multitudes who have lost their homes.
Rain of heaven, wash us here below. Wash the bloodstains and the bloodthirst. We can’t be content when fellow humans suffer.
