Sarmaya e Iman (سرمايۀ ايمان‌)



بِسْمِ اللّهِ الرَّحْمـَنِ الرَّحِيمِ

The name "Sarmaya e Iman" (سرمایه ایمان ) is a Persian phrase which roughly translates as "Capital/Investment of Iman (Faith)".


In a poem by Maulana (Mevlana) Rumi, the expression goes like this:

يادِ‌ اُو سرمايۀ ايمان‌ بود
هر گدا از يادِ‌ اُو سلطان بود


His Remembrance is the foundation/capital of faith.
Beggars are transformed into kings due to His remembrance.
