1. Knowledge, by its virtue, makes all people its servants
It is right to protect it as one protects his honor and life
١. العِلمُ مِن فَضلِهِ لِمَن خَدَمَهُ
أَن يَجعَلَ الناسَ كُلَّهُم خَدَمَه
2. Whoever possesses knowledge but entrusts it
To the ignorant betrays it unjustly
٢. فَواجِبٌ صَونَهُ عَلَيهِ كَما
يَصونُ في الناسِ عِرضَهُ وَدَمَه
٣. فَمَن حَوى العِلمَ ثُمَّ أَودَعَهُ
بِجَهلِهِ غَيرَ أَهلِهِ ظَلَمَه
