God is Too Big To Fit into One Religion, a Quatrain by Rumi (My Translation)






On the path of seeking, wise and fool are the same.
In the faith of love, known and unknown are the same.
For the lover intoxicated by the wine of union with Beloved -
In his or her faith,
Muslims' Kaaba and Hindus' Temple of Idols are the same.
Rumi.


رباعي مولانا جلال الدين بلخي رومي

  در راه طلب ، عاقل و دیوانه یکیست
 در شیوه عشق ، خویش و بیگانه یکیست
 آن را که شراب وصل جانان دادند
 در مذهب او ، کعبه و بتخانه یکیست
