Al-Faraj ba'd al-ShiddaIbn Abi al-Dunya

Abu Bakr said: A man from Quraysh once recited to me:

[metre: al-wāfir]
Have you not seen your Lord’s uncounted grace—
His ever-fresh and ancient gifts, untraceable in their pace?
So turn away from worries; nothing here can stay,
and neither will your sorrows lodge or make a home for long, I say.
Perhaps, when all of this has passed, Allah will look on you anew,
a look of boundless mercy pouring, tender, true.

قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: وَأَنْشَدَنِي رَجُلٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ حَيْثُ يَقُولُ: [البحر الوافر] أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّ رَبَّكَ لَيْسَ تُحْصَى ... أَيَادِيهِ الْحَدِيثَةُ وَالْقَدِيمَهْ تَسَلَّ عَنِ الْهُمُومِ فَلَيْسَ شَيْءٌ ... يُقِيمُ وَمَا هُمُومِكُ بِالْمُقْيمَهْ لَعَلَّ اللَّهَ يَنْظُرُ بَعْدَ هَذَا ... إِلَيْكَ بِنَظْرَةٍ مِنْهُ رَحِيمَهْ
