The Umayyads

The Umayyads بنو اُميّة

  1. 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.
