Ammar Alshukry – A Call to Travel – Poem by Imam Al-Shafii Translated

There's no rest in residence for a person of culture so travel and leave where you're residing travel you'll find a replacement for what you've left behind and strive. The beauty of life isn't striving. I've seen that water become stagnant it still becomes pure if it runs but not if it doesn't flow, and a lion without leaving its den can't hunt, and an arrow won't strike without leaving its boat. And if the sun stood still in its heavenly course than all the world the Arabs and non Arabs it would bore and gold dust is like dust where it's commonly found and in its land. ood route is just another word in store. But if one travels they become sought out. If one travels

they're honored, like gold
