لَكِنَّ
الْحَيَاةَ أَيْضًا هِيَ شُعُورٌ. رَغْمَ كُلِّ تَعَبِي، يُمْكِنُنِي أَنْ
أَشْعُرَ بِالسَّعَادَةِ. كَأُمٍّ تَقْضِي سَاعَتَيْنِ بِجِوَارِ
الْحَرَارَةِ فِي الْمَطْبَخِ، لَكِنْ بِمُجَرَّدِ أَنْ تَجْلِسَ عَلَى
مَائِدَةِ الْعَشَاءِ، مَعَ زَوْجِهَا وَأَوْلَادِهَا، يَتَلَاشَى كُلُّ
ذَلِكَ التَّعَبِ! كَبَنَّاءٍ يَقْضِي سَاعَاتٍ يَعْمَلُ تَحْتَ الشَّمْسِ،
لَكِنْ بِمُجَرَّدِ أَنْ يَعُودَ إِلَى الْمَنْزِلِ مَسَاءً، يُنْسِيهِ
زَوْجَتُهُ وَأَوْلَادُهُ كُلَّ ذَلِكَ التَّعَبِ. لِذَا، رَغْمَ كُلِّ
ابْتِلَاءَاتِي (كُلِّ مِحَنِي، كُلِّ حِرْمَانِي)، فَإِنَّ إِيمَانِي
سَيَجْعَلُ حَيَاتِي مُمْتِعَةً.
But
life is also a feeling. Despite all my tiredness I can feel happy. Like a
mother who spends two hours close to the heat in the kitchen, but once at the
dinner table, with her husband and children, all that tiredness is forgotten!
Like a bricklayer who spends hours working in the sun, but once back home in
the evening his wife and children make him forget all the tiredness. So despite
all my trials (all my tribulations, my depravations) my Faith will make my life
enjoyable.

Now, let’s write the first Arabic sentence.
I click this link :
I get this keyboard :
I start typing the letters from right to left.
First word : شَهِدَ
I type ش then ه then د
I get شَهِدَ (but without vowels !)
To add vowels, I type each vowel (from the
symbols in the third line down) after each letter :
symbols in the third line down) after each letter :
I type َ (on the letter) after ش
I type ِ (under the letter) after ه
I type َ (on the letter) after د
I get شَهِدَ (with all vowels)
Then I space out words as in English. However, as far as punctuation is concerned, the full stop (period) does not always remain in its place when copied and pasted on WORD.
