1. Do not spread people's faults or circulate them
Your friends and companions will be safe from you
١. لا تَعتَمِدَ نَشرَ العُيوبِ وَبَثَّها
يَسلَم لَكَ الإِخوانُ وَالأَصحابُ
2. Restrain yourself from what would give less cause for blame
None among them is without fault
٢. وَاِشدُد يَدَيكَ بِما يَقِلُّ مَعابَهُ
ما فيهِم مَن لَيسَ فيهِ مُعابُ
