Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :“And the night increases only in strength *** and the dawn is subdued by the one of authority
until a fire appeared in its journey on *** the Mount of the City, the dawn of faith”
The student: ...
The Shaykh : Now, we have “Tawr” with a rā’; perhaps you have “Tawr” with a ṭā’. The mountain of the city, Tawr al-Madinah. The poet says:
“until a fire appeared in its journey on *** the Mount of the City, the dawn of faith”
It is well known that when a fire appears after severe exhaustion in seeking it, a person is more joyful about it and more eager for it.
“so he came to take a spark from it, but with *** those bonds, he could not reach it safely”
He came to take a spark from this fire, but his sins bound him, so he was unable to take a spark from it.
