A beautiful creature's bell draw

When literature is rich with a living human experience, it continuously fulfills two important roles: pleasure and benefit, although it is not necessary for both roles to be achieved in the same amount in a literary work, and often one outweighs the other. However, "Rafiq Shami" has achieved both in his remarkable work "Ring the Bell for a Beautiful Creature," as he embarks on a (linguistic – cognitive) adventure through which he views reality itself as a given in which the writer is constantly moving, reshaping, or interpreting. In this work, Shami restores the flavor of Arab heritage, digs into the secrets of language and its buried aesthetics, and passionately discusses (the role of language in its aesthetic form and human content), considering that the artistic work is an integral part of the awareness of its producer. This also applies to the art of music, painting, and sculpture: "What remains for humanity is the essential, not the artist's personal behavior." Also, poetry is the most beautiful in its elegance of expression and its impact on the ear. In the past, poetry was sung rather than read, so poets paid attention to the musical resonance and rhythm of their words. As for discussing the beauty of (Arabic calligraphy) and its impact on our past and present, Shami recalls it through "Ibn Mqla and His Hidden Secret." All of this is presented by the author to tell us an important matter: "...We must choose the path to become thinking Arabs or disbelievers, and our position regarding our language, our tongue, and the voice of our Arab humanity is the dividing line between the two options..." Among the book's titles are: The story of this book, Ibn Mqla and His Hidden Secret, Arabic Calligraphy: Music that Pleases the Eyes, Wasting Energy in Translation and Lexical Work, Funny Anecdotes and Wise Sayings about Eloquence... and more.
