Arabic word or phraseMeaning
اشْتَكَىexperienced pain; suffered
عَيْنُهُhis eye
رَأْسُهُhis head
كُلُّهُall of him; the whole person
عَيْنُ in عَيْنُهُ means eye, رَأْسُ in رَأْسُهُ means head, and كُلُّ in كُلُّهُ means all/whole. The ending refers to the same person throughout. Both the eye’s pain and the head’s pain are followed by suffering of the whole person. In وَإِنِ, وَ is “and” and إِنِ is “if.”
The comparison encourages care for one another’s hardship. Teaching example: listening to a struggling colleague and offering possible help expresses mutual concern. It does not require identical physical pain or emotional intensity in everyone; it is not a way to measure faith from facial reactions.
