Arabic term or phrase: جريرة
فيما بعد، ....فيما بعد، ...يبدو أنني سوف أكرر هذه الجملة كثيرا في سيرتي. هذه الجملة هي جريرة لم يكن لي فيها يد أبدا. هي نتاج الزخم الزماني لحادثة جهيمان. خمس سنوات قبل حادثة جهيمان وخمس سنوات بعدها، عشر سنوات ويلٌ لمن ولد فيهن. هذا الزخم الزماني القادم حتى من الماضي كان له تأثير عظيم على هذا الجيل. هذا الجيل المسكين سوف يقضي أكثر من ثلثي عمره حتى يدرك الحقائق كما هي. ليدرك أن الشمس تشرق من المشرق وتغرب من المغرب بعد أن حُجبت عنه الحقائق عمدا بفعل فاعل
