إنَّ الصبرَ لجميلٌ إلّا عنكَ، وإنَّ الجزعَ لقبيحٌ إلّا عليك.
Patience is beautiful, except when it comes to you. And anguish is unbecoming, except over you.
إنَّ الصبرَ لجميلٌ إلّا عنكَ، وإنَّ الجزعَ لقبيحٌ إلّا عليك.
Patience is beautiful, except when it comes to you. And anguish is unbecoming, except over you.
These quotes come from Alone with the Alone, a 264-page bilingual hardcover of 113 quotes from Ali Ibn Abi Talib, with footnotes and an afterword.
