نقد القوة: رسائل فلسفيّة إلى الضعفاء - سعيد ناشيد
اقترح الكتاب ويدير الحوار حازم ابراهيم الكتاب يتوفر مطبوعا والكترونيا (يرجى متابعة الرابط للتفاصيل) صدرت في السنوات القليلة الماضيّة عشرات الكتب التي تحمل عناوين: "كن قويّا"، "كوني قويّة"، "كيف تكون إنسانًا قويًّا؟"، "كيف تبني شخصيّة قويّة؟"، "كن قويًّا بالإيمان"، إلخ... لكن... بصرف النظر عن تلك الكتب، وعمّا يقوله الأطباء والمحلّلون النفسانيون، وخبراء التنمية البشرية، والواعظون... فإنّ الفلسفة، بمعناها العميق والأصيل، تقول شيئًا آخر: لا تحاول أن تكون قويًا، لا تحاول أن تظهر بمظهر القوّة، لا تحاول أن تتحكّم في كل الأمور المحيطة بك... فالحياة لا تقوم على القوة بل على الأسلوب، وعلى التكيّف، وعلى المرونة. القوّة منزع ذكوريّ، وإيديولوجيّ، إنه وهمٌ بدائيٌّ، لا يزال كامنًا في لا وعي الإنسان من حياته البدائية، يظهر جليًا في معارك السلطة والحظوة والشهرة والدين، إلّا أنه وهمٌ يُضيّع متعة الأسلوب والتفاصيل، ويُدمّر جودة الحياة. إنه ينهك روحك، يستنزف جسدك ويُسبب الشقاء للكثيرين. هذا الكتاب الذي يحمل رسائل إلى الذين يعتبرون أنفسهم المعذبين في الأرض... وغير المحظوظين... والضعفاء... هو محاولة لبرهنة أن ليس في الضعف أي مشكلة؛ بل المشكلة في اعتبار أن الضعف هو المشكلة. وهو أيضًا دليلك لأجل أن تتصالح مع ضعفك، وأن تستثمر الطاقة الكامنة والهائلة في كل نقاط ضعفك إذا كنت لا تريد أن تخسر معارك حياتك. نقد القوة: رسائل فلسفيّة إلى الضعفاء - سعيد ناشيد دار التنوير ٢٠٢٤ [https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/240707522](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/240707522) نقد القوة: رسائل فلسفيّة إلى الضعفاء- سعيد ناشيد ‏اقرأ الكتاب على تطبيق ابجد https://www.abjjad.com/book/2817654792 كيف أحصل على الكتاب؟ مكتبة غاف التواصل عن طريق الموبايل او الواتس اب +971527798773 سعيد (متجر لتوصيل الكتب داخل الإمارات) التواصل عن طريق الموبايل او الواتس اب +971508386699 تطبيق أبجد على الآيفون والآندرويد [https://www.abjjad.com/](https://www.abjjad.com/) Kinokuniya [https://uae.kinokuniya.com/](https://uae.kinokuniya.com/) مؤسسة هنداوي [https://www.hindawi.org](https://www.hindawi.org) Storytel [https://www.storytel.com](https://www.storytel.com) نيل وفرات المتجر الاكتروني للكتب [https://www.neelwafurat.com/](https://www.neelwafurat.com/) وراقون المتجر الاكتروني للكتب [https://wrraqoon.com/](https://wrraqoon.com/) Google Play الكتب على متجر [https://play.google.com/store/books](https://play.google.com/store/books) Amazon الكتب على متجر [https://www.amazon.ae/](https://www.amazon.ae/) Virgin الكتب على متجر [https://www.virginmegastore.ae/](https://www.virginmegastore.ae/) Iqraa shelves on goodreads [https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/44694](https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/44694) Iqraa on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/iqraaarabicdubai/](https://www.instagram.com/iqraaarabicdubai/) Iqraa on Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/groups/ArabicBookClubDubai](https://www.facebook.com/groups/ArabicBookClubDubai)

Ummq Bear Adventure – The Once-in-a-Lifetime Canyon Expedition Opening
Confimed trip ongoing Ready to trade the city for cliffs, pools, and pure adrenaline? This is your ticket to an epic weekend of abseiling, canyoning, swimming, and off-road adventure deep inside the Hajar Mountains. It’s wild, it’s fun, it’s challenging—and honestly, it’s the kind of trip you’ll be talking about long after it ends. Come for the adventure, stay for the memories. Duration: Friday – Saturday Starting Point: Muscat Difficulty Level: ★★★★★ (5/5 – Extreme) Recovery Day: Sunday (you’ll need it) The Concept Hidden deep within the rugged landscapes of the Mountains, this canyon only reveals its true beauty after rainfall—a rare event in Oman. Unlike permanent wadis such as other oman wadis, this route transforms temporarily: Dry rock corridors become flowing water systems Natural basins turn into deep turquoise pools The canyon becomes alive for a short window only Miss it—and it’s gone. Cost : 1280 aed ( included 1 night muscat hotel, food, all equipment required, of road vechile transport between in and exit points, Certified guides The Day 1 – Friday | Into the Wild 05:00 AM – Departure from Muscat Early start. Convoy energy. This is not a casual trip—it’s a mission. 07:30 AM – Off-Road Entry We leave the asphalt behind and enter rugged terrain shaped by flash floods and erosion over thousands of years. 09:00 AM – Canyon Entry & Safety Setup Harnesses on. Helmets secured. Final briefing. From here—you are fully committed. Phase 1: Vertical World Technical abseiling down multiple canyon drops Rock scrambling and tight navigation Descending through dramatic rock formations Phase 2: Water & Pools Swimming across deep natural pools Floating through narrow canyon corridors Optional controlled jumps into clear basins These waters appear only after rainfall—clear, fresh, and surreal. 03:30 PM – Deep Canyon Camp Camp is set in total isolation, surrounded by towering canyon walls. Tents setup Fire preparation Time to rest and absorb the experience Evening – The Wild Camp Experience Sunset between cliffs Simple camp dinner Silence, stars, and stories With no light pollution, the night sky here is one of the clearest in Oman. Day 2 – Saturday | The Exit Challenge 06:00 AM – Canyon Wake-Up Cool air. Still water. First light hitting the cliffs. 07:00 AM – Breakfast & Pack Up Refuel. The toughest stretch is ahead. Phase 3: The Final Push Advanced abseiling sections Long and technical hiking terrain Final swimming passages and climbs This is where endurance, focus, and teamwork come together. 01:00 PM – Canyon Exit You’ve completed something few ever attempt. 02:30 PM – Return to Vehicles 06:00 PM – Arrival Back to Muscat The Experience A complete adventure package: Abseiling Canyoning Swimming Hiking Off-roading Wild camping All in one intense, unforgettable journey. Important Notes Extreme difficulty (5/5) Requires strong physical fitness Must be comfortable with heights and swimming Not suitable for beginners Final Thought In Oman, many wadis are beautiful. Few are challenging. Almost none offer this level of rarity, intensity, and reward. This is not a trip you repeat. This is a story you carry. Ummq Bear Adventure — Do it once. Remember it forever

Hike Blacklick Woods and The Canopy. Optional lunch after.
**Over time I'm hoping to organize a hike to all the Franklin County Metro Parks. This is the first one so if you're interested jump in!** **We'll start with the Canopy Walk, a cool feature of this park. Climb 100 stairs to the top - or take the elevator if stairs aren't your thing. At the top there are a bunch of things to play on - a rope bridge, a fireman pole that we can slide down - and more! About fifteen minutes there and we'll head to the natural trail, Buttonbush, Maple and Beech Trail for 2.2 miles then do a 1.7 mile loop on the paved Greenway Trail. We'll be passing our cars as we transition if you only want to do the first loop, or the second loop. Pace of around 3.5 mph but no one left behind.** **If there is an interest we can grab lunch nearby afterward at Prost Beer and Wine Cafe. Www.prostcafe.com**

We'll hike 3.4 miles on the Killdeer and Yellowlegs Trails - both out and back gravel trails. If we want more mileage we can repeat an out and back. Pace of around 3.5 mph, no one left behind and those who want to go faster sure can! As always optional lunch after. This is the second Metro Park in the lineup for me - with 21 to go (plus more are being added).
