Selected Words of Wisdom (4)

**************************

# إِذَا انْتَمَـــى مُنْتَمٍ إِلىَ أَحَدٍ

فَإِنَّنِـــــيْ مُنْتَمٍ إِلـــىَ أَدَبِــــي

If one leans on another,

In fact, I rely on my adab.

# إِنَّ الفَتَى مَنْ يَقُوْلُ ها أَنَذَا

وَلَيْسَ الفَتَى مَنْ يَقُوْلُ كَانَ أَبِي

Verily youth is the one who says 'Here I am',

 Not someone who says 'This is my dad'.

Syarah / Explanation and Conclusion:

****************************************

The first stanza explains the importance of adab. Adab should be a source of pride for a person, not other things such as wealth, wealth, family, etc.

The second stanza describes how a young man should behave. A real youth is a young man who stands on his own feet, not a young man who always relies on the position or power of his parents in every matter. Because young people who always rely on their parents will not be able to grow into independent youths who have commendable character.
