Ḥizb al-Shakwā

حزب الشكوى

Clause 39 of 99 · Far from home

وَلَا يُلْهِيهِ عَنْ بَثِّهِ وَحُزْنِهِ تَغَيُّرُ الْأَزْمَانِ مُسْتَوْحِشٌ لَا يُؤْنِسُ قَلْبَهُ إِنْسٌ وَلَا جَانٌّ

whom the changing of the times does not distract from his distress and sorrow; lonely, his heart comforted by neither human nor jinn.

Wa-lā yulhīhi ʿan baththihi wa-ḥuznihi taghayyuru l-azmāni mustawḥishun lā yuʾnisu qalbahu insun wa-lā jānn
