It is the jewel of the world heritage, and one of the best books of literature that transcended the confines of space and time to live among us until today. It is the book that young people take to enjoy its stories, and adults derive many and deep meanings from it. The book was dyed with the colors of the most affluent oriental civilizations; It is the result of the convergence of three civilizations (Indian, Persian and Arabic), and it is common that its author is the Indian wise “Bidba”, and he wrote it to be recommended by King “Dibsaleem”. Finally, it reached Arabic literature when Abdullah Ibn al-Muqaffa translated it, adding it in turn. There is no doubt that the book carries with it political and social dimensions. I have made it until today a subject for research and investigation, and Kalila wa Dimna will remain the favorite source of literary pleasure for adults and children.

The translator :

He is a Persian thinker who was born as a Magian, but he converted to Islam, and lived through both the Umayyad and Abbasid Caliphates.. He studied Persian and learned Arabic in the books of writers and participated in the Marbad market. Transfer from Pahlavi to Arabic Kalila and Dimna. He has in the transmitted books small literature and great literature in which there is talk about the Sultan and his relationship with the subjects and the relationship of the subjects with him, and small literature about cultivating the soul and taming it with good deeds.

The best of what I have read in our ancient Arabic literature.. A collection of symbolic stories with deep meaning and interesting and interesting content

Omar Al-Jizawi

The role of the book is about stories within distinct stories, with meaning and great wisdom.. You find in every line and in every story a lot of wonderful and amazing meanings and words.. I don’t know how Bidba managed to compose these stories with such eloquence and great wisdom.. The proverbs and stories that were mentioned were Very special and beautiful

- Nourhan Khaled

These stories still resonate in my mind and soul ever since I first read them as a child

- maryiam Adel

I think that I am not exaggerating when I say that all the heritage stories directed at children or that carry life judgments - or to take lessons from them in life - in the whole world were taken from this book or derived from it! .. and translated or a little letter in it, each according to his culture..

- Khaled.

What distinguishes this book are tales full of wisdom and the art of dealing with others from deception or cunning and others, but the characters are not human and so-and-so and others, but are animals from jackals, lions, lions, birds and others.. The book is beautiful as if it were bedtime stories for children or in my pocket stories

❇️ Some quotes from the book Kalila and Dimna by Ibn al-Muqaffa ❇️

“Nothing is lighter and more volatile than the heart.”

“The world is like salt water whose drinker does not drink more, except that he increases thirst.”

“The elevation to the honorable rank is severe, and the decline in it is easy, like a heavy stone: it is difficult to raise it from the ground to the free, and placing it on the ground is easy.”

“There is no wealth like contentment.”

“The water, even if it was too hot, would not prevent it from putting out the fire if it was poured over it.”

And the generous one forgets one trait of benevolence, the many faults of wrongdoing.

“I did not increase in the world and its desires for consideration, except that I increased in them in renunciation and from them in escaping.”

Elaz said: Four do not mix with each other: night and day, righteousness and immorality, light and darkness, good and evil.

“Whoever does a favor for some of the benefits of this world, his likeness in what he gives and gives is like that of a hunter, and his giving love to birds does not want the benefit of the birds.”

“No one knows more about the same sad pain than he has tasted like it.”

― Abdullah ibn al-Muqaffa’, Kalila wa Dimnah
