Tomorrow Ibn al-Aas's mosque is the cave of imams

غدا جامع ابن العاص كهف أئمة

1. Tomorrow Ibn al-Aas's mosque is the cave of imams
So for the imams the mosque is a cave

١. غَدا جَامِعُ ابنِ العاصِ كهفَ أَئِمَّةٍ
فللهِ كَهْفٌ لِلأئِمَّةِ جَامِعُ

2. We were glad that the judges are three
And you are the crown of religion for the people, the fourth

٢. لَقَدْ سَرَّنا أَنَّ القُضاةَ ثَلاثَةٌ
وأنكَ تَاجَ الدِّينِ لِلْقَوْمِ رَابِعُ

3. With them the structure of Islam became sound, and how not
When they are its pillars and leaders

٣. بِهِمْ بِنْيَةُ الإسلاَمِ صَحَّتْ وكيف لا
تَصِحُّ وهُمْ أَرْكانُهَا والطَّبائِعُ

4. They showed us licenses and strictnesses
We were guided by them, they are the rising stars

٤. فَهُمْ رُخَصاً أَبْدَوا لنا وَعَزَائماً
هُدِينا بها فَهْيَ النُّجُومُ الطَّوَالِعُ

5. So do not despair if Allah expanded
Our doctrines with knowledge, and Allah is All-Encompassing

٥. فَلاَ تَبْتَئِسْ إنْ وَسَّعَ اللهُ في الْهُدَى
مذاهبَنا بالعلمِ واللهُ واسعُ

6. Opinions differed though religion is one
And each returns to an opinion of the truth

٦. تفَرَّقَتِ الآراءُ وَالدِّينُ واحِدٌ
وكُلٌّ إلى رَأْيِ مِنَ الحَقِّ رَاجِعُ

7. So this is a difference that brought comfort to people
As fingers differ in the two hands

٧. فَهذَا اخْتِلاَفٌ جَرَّ لِلْخَلْقِ راحَةً
كما اخْتلَفَتْ في الرَّاحَتَيْنِ الأصابعُ
