1. How strange are swords whose blade and hilt are now equal
Whose past and present are the same.

2. I saw justice in a country
whose judge was Shafi'i

3. His rulings were pleasingly just
And after creating man, God was pleased with them

4. Had the Hashimites been consulted about this
They would have preferred it over their own interests

5. How many clear proofs, how many needs
He has ruled on for us before their plea
