ولستُ أول مَن اختار المتاعبَ في حارتنا، كان بوُسع جبل أن يبقى في وظيفته عند الناظر، وكان بوُسع رفاعة أن يصير نجارَ الحارة الأول، وكان في وُسع قاسم أن يهنأ بقمر وأملاكها، وأن يعيش عيشةَ الأعيان، ولكنهم اختاروا الطريقَ الآخَر.»
Like a serene scene trapped inside a crystal ball in an eternal moment of peace, the Syrian city of Homs appeared, calm and full of secret dreams.
It is crossed by a curious river that tries to rebel a little and break the dull, monotonous crystal, and it is called the Orontes.
Then the war came and the city was fragmented, and the butterflies flew with their dreams into the flames.
Every day of war passes, bringing with it dozens of stories worth telling. This novel takes us around the city, to learn more stories about it and its residents, a city that has become full of stories.
The story of a final basil seedling where Father France parked his old bike before he was killed. And the stories of library owners that were stolen.
A kiss from a friend that he printed on the glasses of (Wael Qastoun) after he wiped the bloody dirt from them
The mystery of the lover who covered the walls of the gloomy cemetery in Bouha (Lulu, I love you).
A sad hand under the rubble of a house that no longer exists.
There is no fair narrative in times of war, but the language remains an apology to the city
It was as if the universe had curled up to embrace him

As if the universe were a ball that embraced him:
Life teaches us every day, with its experiences, whether calm or stormy, that returning to the One who created the universe and to the One who balanced matters between the smallest cell and the largest creature and what is between them is the secret of happiness, tranquility of the heart, and comfort of the body. Whoever desires this world seeks it with distraction, and whoever desires this world and the afterlife strives for both by worshiping God and striving to please Him.
The Qur’an is the healing of the soul. A person will not know the pleasure of contemplation except those who work diligently in it, establish its meanings, and build their lives on its rulings and laws. You will see the world with different eyes. In this book, there is a simplified explanation of some of its verses, and pictures and other lessons that I collected for you, perhaps adding a different angle to life and telling stories and situations that had an impact on changing thought and action.
It is said: “Save, may God protect you.” The matter of dhikr (remembrance of God) and the upliftment of the soul are amazing, as if one’s soul was filled with warmth, mercy, wisdom, and affection, and as if he knew that there is preservation and comfort in dhikr.
It is beautiful to know that what comes after patience are beautiful things, and that God’s destiny is better than the wishes and demands that the soul bears, and for a person to acknowledge his shortcomings, and to surrender his entire affairs to God who created him and destined him.
This book is a piece of the heart, for you.

Human comedy:
By “human comedy,” I mean what I understood while I was still young, crude, and inadequate, namely the absurdity and amusements of human beings. Rather, I go further than Aristotle did in his definition of the word comedy, where he said: (Comedy is what causes laughter, rather than the defect that does not cause pain). As for me, I mean by comedy here, it is immorality, farce, play, contempt, recklessness, confusion, and the chaos of humanity, and there is no laughter in it. For me, comedy does not inspire reverence like the comedy of the Greeks or Dante, and it does not call for laughter like the comedy of Aristotle. Rather, it is a funny, crying comedy because of its contradiction and absurdity, and to those who say that humanity has accomplished a lot, I say that even if there are any notable highlights, achievements, or progress, they are the results of random interactions, scrambles, and quarrels that are unplanned and unplanned, like a gambler who sometimes wins and often loses, but it is an ungrateful gain. Or he should be praised for it, but it did not come from thought or action. Rather, it is absurdity, experimentation, and play.
