رواية قصيرة من الأدب الكويتي 🇰🇼

تأملات في الصلاة!

“I imagine myself as the protagonist who, after years of solitude, learns that independence doesn’t cancel love, that strength doesn’t mean solitude,”

في النهاية، تتفق رؤية القصيبي والحفظي على أن الذاكرة ليست مجرد أداة لاسترجاع الماضي، بل هي جوهر الإنسان نفسه. وبدونها، يتلاشى المعنى ويغيب الإنسان عن ذاته قبل أن يغيب عن الآخرين. ولا أجد وصفاً أدق وأعمق لنختم به هذا التجوال المؤلم، أجمل مما قاله وائل الحفظي:

‏"فليس الإنسان سوى ذاكرة. ما نحن إلّا حيواتنا، قصصنا وكلُّ ما عرفناه ومررنا به"

"يقول الحلم: إنه لا يوجد حيّ دونما حلم، لكن أكثر الناس لا ينصتون لحسّهم، ولا يروّضون تأملاتهم حتى تستطيع تمييز ذلك النداء، إما لأنهم لا يفكرون على هذا النحو، أو لأن هناك من سرق قدرتهم على الحلم والحسّ أصلاً، فيكون مصيرهم أن استسلموا لحياة الزحام الجماعية،"

الكتاب الثالث من إيران ولكن هذه المرة من أصفهان.

“forgive yourself. this is your life. it has never belonged to anyone else. there is no other timeline you are supposed to be following, no other version you are supposed to become by now. the moment you stop comparing it, even for a second, you will realise you were never outside of your life.
you were always in it. learning, feeling, becoming. exactly as you were meant to.”

حقيقة، من أفضل الدراسات التي قرأتها مؤخرًا عن اللغة وقوة الكلمة! أنصح وبشدة.

"Language does more than express our thoughts. Over time, it reveals the world we believe we inhabit. Within the Islamic intellectual tradition, words reflect the condition of the heart, and through repetition they begin to shape the direction of a person’s life.
The Qur’an offers a striking illustration of this in the story of the wealthy man in Surah al-Kahf. Proud of his gardens and wealth, he spoke with arrogance and certainty about his own success:
“I do not think this will ever perish, and I do not think the Hour will come. And even if I were returned to my Lord, I would surely find something better than this.”
(Qur’an 18:35–36)
His words revealed not gratitude, but arrogance. Not humility, but confidence in his own power.
Soon after, the Qur’an tells us that his garden was destroyed, leaving him standing among its ruins in regret. The story is not only about wealth. It is about speech. His downfall began not with the loss of his garden, but with the arrogance that had already taken root in his words. Language reveals the posture of the heart, and that posture eventually shapes the direction of one’s life."
