ثَمَــــرَةُ الْخِـــــلَافِ

ثَمَرَةُ الْخِلَافِ

This is an Arabic short story for foreigners. We took it from a book written by Kamil Keilany, an Egyptian writer and a poet. The original text was written for native speakers of Arabic. To make it suitable for learners of Arabic as a foreign language, it has been abridged, simplified, and slightly modified. Some of the details in the original story have been left out. Also, sentence structures are simple so that learners can process them easily. The story is suitable for high-beginner to pre-intermediate learners.

اِبْتَعَدَ جُحَا عَنِ الْبَيْتِ. أَرَادَ جُحَا أَنْ يَعْرِفَ سَبَبَ الصُّرَاخِ. رَأَى جُحَا وَلَدَيْنِ. كَانَ الْوَلَدَانِ يَتَضَارَبَانِ بِقُوَّةٍ. عَرَفَ جُحَا الْوَلَدَيْنِ. الْوَلَدَانِ هُمَا اِبْنِا جَارِ جُحَا. كَانَ اِسْمُ الْوَلَدَيْنِ مَرْوَانَ وَسَمِيرًا. كَان مَرْوَانُ وَسَمِيرٌ يَتَضَارَبَانِ دَائِمًا. أَرَادَ جُحَا أَنْ يُعَلِّمَ الْوَلَدَيْنِ الْأَدَبَ. قَالَ جُحَا لِنَفْسِهِ: هَذَانِ الوَلَدَانِ مُشَاغِبَانِ. سَوْفَ أُعَلِّمُهَمَا الْأَدَبَ جَيِّدًا. ذَهَبَ جُحَا إِلَى الْوَلَدَينِ. وَقَفَ جُحَا أَمَامَ الْوَلَدَيْنِ. صَاحَ جُحَا: تَوَقَّفَا!

وَقَفَ الْوَلَدَانِ أَمَامَ جُحَا. تَكَلَّمَ الْوَلَدَانِ مَعًا. رَفَعَ جُحَا يَدَهُ، وَقَالَ: أُصْمُتَا! مَا الْمُشْكِلَةُ؟ تَكَلَّمْ يَا سَمِيرُ. لِمَاذَا…………………..
