Notes and open questions — unreviewed
Al-ashara is rendered as boastful exultation; the term can also suggest arrogant or excessive self-display.
وَالأشَرَةُ شَرٌّ
The Arabic is al-ashara, denoting boastful or arrogant exultation; “saw” does not match the word.
Please correct this term against the Arabic.
