O you who reads in his books

يا ذا الذي يقرء في كتبه

1. O you who reads in his books
What Allah has forbidden, yet does not act

١. يا ذا الَّذي يَقرَءُ في كُتبِهِ
ما قَد نَهى اللَهُ وَلا يَعمَلُ

2. The Most Merciful has made clear the hatred of one
Who enjoins right but does not do it

٢. قَد بَيَّنَ الرَحمَنُ مَقتَ الَّذي
يَأمُرُ بِالحَقِّ وَلا يَفعَلُ

3. Whose actions do not resemble his words—
His silence is more beautiful

٣. مَن كانَ لا يُشبِهُ أَفعالُهُ
أَقوالَهُ فَصَمتُهُ أَجمَلُ

4. I blame my own soul for the sins
It has committed

٤. مَن عَذَلَ الناسَ فَنَفسي بِما
قَد قارَفَت مِن ذَنبِها أَعذَلُ

5. Indeed, the one who forbids yet does
What he forbade is not just

٥. إِنَّ الَّذي يَنهى وَيَأتي الَّذي
عَنهُ نَهى في الحَقِّ لايَعدِلُ

6. The ignorant sinner
Is more excusable than one who knows

٦. وَالراكِبُ الذَنبِ عَلى جَهلِهِ
أَعذَرُ مِمَّن كانَ لايَجهَلُ

7. Do not confuse what Allah accepts
Of deeds with words He won't accept from you

٧. لا تَخلُطَن ما يَقبَلُ اللَهُ مِن
فِعلٍ بِقَولٍ مِنكَ لا يَقبَلُ
