وَ طَفِقْتُ أَرْتَئِي بَيْنَ أَنْ أَصُولَ بِيَدٍ جَذَّاءَ أَوْ أَصْبِرَ عَلَى طَخْيَةٍ عَمْيَاءَ يَهْرَمُ فِيهَا الْكَبِيرُ وَ يَشِيبُ فِيهَا الصَّغِيرُ وَ يَكْدَحُ فِيهَا مُؤْمِنٌ حَتَّى يَلْقَى رَبَّهُ‏ And I -asws contemplated between reaching out with a sharp cutting hand or being patient upon the blinding darkness during which the old ones became bewildered and the young ones became grey-haired, and the Momin toiled during it until he met his Lord -azwj .

The outweighing of patience فَرَأَيْتُ أَنَّ الصَّبْرَ عَلَى هَاتَا أَحْجَى‏ فَصَبَرْتُ وَ فِي الْعَيْنِ قَذًى وَ فِي الْحَلْقِ شَجًا أَرَى تُرَاثِي‏ نَهْباً حَتَّى مَضَى الْأَوَّلُ لِسَبِيلِهِ فَأَدْلَى بِهَا إِلَى فُلَانٍ [ابْنِ الْخَطَّابِ‏] بَعْدَهُ I -asws viewed that over here the patience was necessary, so I -asws was patient while there was the dirty spot in the eyes, and a lump struck in the throat.

I -asws was my -asws inheritance being plundered until the first one (Abu Bakr) went on his way. He pointed with it to so and so (Son of Al-Khattab) after him’. ثُمَّ تَمَثَّلَ بِقَوْلِ الْأَعْشَى‏ شَتَّانَ مَا يَوْمِي عَلَى كُورِهَا وَ يَوْمُ حَيَّانَ أَخِي جَابِرِ Then he -asws quoted a parable of Al-A’sha, ‘ My days are various, passing upon a camel’s back, and a day of Hayyan, brother of Jabir (ease) ’.
