Arabic Phrase:
قال السراج البلقينـي في محاسن الاصطلاح ص176
“لكن الانتهاض لمجرد الاعتراض من جملة الأمراض”
“لكن الانتهاض لمجرد الاعتراض من جملة الأمراض”
Meaning & Usage:
This statement means: Opposition for the sake of objection is a type of illness.
It is used when someone criticizes a statement or opinion for the sake of criticizing to show his ability. It is an indication of a hidden disease inside the heart.
What is the meaning of the phrase? Is there a transliteration of the phrase?
No transliteration. It’s not a supplication that one needs to memorize, so we didn’t transliterate it.
As for meaning, it’s posted now. It was basically explained in the usage.
The “hidden disease inside the heart” is, indeed, the “pride”.
How can we not be reminded from time to time to take away the evil thoughts, including pride, jealousy, selfishness, hatred, suspicion, anger and the like, from our hearts and pray to Allah for forgiveness.
Thank you for the reminder!
