The Portrait
What Jubair asks of its bearer
At the opening of Jubair stands Jeem: an outward beauty and embodied presence. Inside the name, Ba brings an interior that holds and shelters; Ya brings an interior of strong selfhood. These are the hidden weathers of the name. And Jubair closes on Ra: the life resolves through motion. The bearer is asked to inhabit each letter consciously, until companion Jubayr ibn Mut'im is not what the name says but what the life shows.
Jubayr ibn Mut'im — he heard the Prophet recite Surah al-Tur and said 'my heart flew out.'
