1. I wondered at the one who prayed and the one who answered,
And did not know the prayer or the answer.

2. So when the one who prayed was sure,
And made sure what he prayed for humbly,

3. But in answering the acceptance of his prayer he missed what he hit.
As for the knowers of Him, they stood

4. Above the unveiling which guides to the right.
And His law affirmed the affirmation of a scholar,

5. And revealed it to the person of a book.
And the believers won through it and obtained

6. From God happiness and reward.
And the sinners obtained much forgiveness,

7. And in the world so they feared no punishment,
Establishing His ordained limit in them

8. Is established by which he accepted the penitent.
And no repentance he accepts will avail him from it,

9. When the Imam knows and he has turned in penance.
And the Imam judges him by his religion and chooses him

10. And assigns him punishment and penalty.
And this is not the judgement of the Resurrection in him,

11. Even if his Creator absolved him in accounting.
The Ash’ari sees him without limit,

12. And its deniers veil it from him.
And whoever witnessed matters without a veil

13. Sees it and does not see it when it is hidden.
And the All-Knowing witnesses it in every aspect

14. And knows that if he erred, he erred.
And were it not for His being, there would be no being,

15. And by bringing us the clouds He showed us witnesses.
The decisive judgment came to you in us,

16. And opens its shade in it and a door.
