islamic-art-and-quotes: Imam ash-Shafi`i Poem نعيب زماننا والعيب فينا *** وما لزماننا عيب سواناونه
islamic-art-and-quotes: Imam ash-Shafi`i Poem نعيب زماننا والعيب فينا *** وما لزماننا عيب سوانا ونهجوا ذا الزمان بغير ذنب *** ولو نطق لنا الزمان لهجانا We fault our time when the fault is in us And what fault does our time have besides us? We scold what’s in our time though it has done no wrong And had time been able to talk it would have scolded us. Source: al-nur, via IslamicArtDB -- source link
