As is his habit in his dramatic works, Al-Hakim employs the “symbol” in a truly magnificent artistic manner. He speaks as if he hadn’t said anything at all, using the popular saying, “Actions speak louder than words.” Al-Hakim conveys his human insights and reflections on social and political issues in a clever and imaginative way that captivates the imagination, evokes emotions, and delights the soul. Through these stunning texts, Al-Hakim argues that the essence of our people has always remained intact, that their heritage is precious, and that the eternal essence and precious heritage are against falsehood. Just as it’s impossible to defend health by covering up illness, it’s also necessary to defend the integrity of the future by exposing everything that goes against it. There’s no meaning in life without consciousness. This is the most important lesson of these texts, and they deserve to be read with awareness through this new edition of “Al-Hamir”.
