The Full Moon

Was playing this the whole day

"Wahai bulan purnama yang sempurna,


     Yang telah mencapai segala puncak kesempurnaan.



Apakah perkataan yang dapat


     Mengungkapkan ketinggianmu?



Engkaulah yang telah terbit


     Memerangi ufuk yang tinggi



Lalu engkau melenyapkan


     Segala kesesatan dengan cahayamu


Dengan sebabmu, terang benderang alam "
 

and came across this article

It was at that point that I understood why companion after companion compared the Prophet’s ﷺ  (peace be upon him) beauty to the full-moon.
Jabir radi Allahu `anhu (may God be pleased with him) was with the Messenger of God ﷺ  on a night of a full-moon. He had a moment of contemplation: which of these creations is more beautiful? So he looked to the full-moon, then he looked to the Prophet ﷺ , comparing them both. He said then and there, “I found that — for me — he was better than the moon.”

and I can relate the two.

p/s: Teringat akan panggilan telefon dari Hazwani Harun menyuruh saya keluar dan lihat bulan penuh, sekarang. Sungguh, indahnya bulan.
