The Dream
I asked for a sign from heaven.
He found me in a coffee shop
Coffee with the Prophet
A 21st Century Encounter with Muhammad
By Mark A. Gabriel
Former Lecturer of Islamic History at Al-Azhar University
The Dream
Going to bed and sleeping are two different things for me.
Even though I was tired, I couldn’t sleep.
I thought I heard sounds coming from Sheikh Ahmed’s room, as if he were talking to someone.
I couldn’t resist the temptation to put my ear to the wall.
He was speaking in a foreign language again, and I was pretty sure that it was Urdu, the major language of Pakistan.
Finally, around 1 a.m., I fell asleep still hearing the muffled sounds of Sheikh Ahmed’s late-night conversations.
