The Umayyads
The Umayyads بنو اُميّة
- While recalling the [rule of the] Umayyads (he said): It is the spittle from the deliciousness of [this temporary] life; they [shall] taste it for a short while and then spit it all out.
1ـ في ذِكرِ بَني اُمَيَّةَ: هِيَ مُجاجَةٌ مِنْ لَذيدِ العَيْشِ،
يَتَطَعَّمُونَها بُرْهَةً، وَيَلْفَظُونَها جُمْلَةً.
