Wahy Al-Qalam: Reflections on Love, Old Age, and the Modern World

Wahy Al-Qalam is a timeless collection of literary essays and narrative sketches by the great Arab writer Mustafa Sadiq Al-Rafi’i. With his signature blend of sharp wit, deep faith, and lyrical Arabic prose, Al-Rafi’i turns everyday scenes into meditations on time, love, aging, and the crisis of modern “progress”.

In portraits like “The Two Old Men” and “The Flighty Girl”, elders argue with the new generation, friendships are tested across forty years, and the clash between tradition and modern ideas is exposed with both humor and pain. Philosophical reflections sit side by side with intimate letters, social criticism, and tender moments of spiritual longing — all written in a voice that is at once poetic, ironic, and profoundly human.

This audiobook brings one of the most influential voices of modern Arabic literature to life for today’s listener, preserving the rhythm of the original text while opening a window onto the heart of an entire era.
