1. A man whose faults
Were loving the Prophet, though blameworthy,
١. إِنَّ اِمرَءًا كانت مَساوِئُهُ
حُبَّ النَبيِّ لَغَيرُ ذي عَتبِ
2. And the family of Abi Hasan and their father -
Goodly in womb and loin were they.
٢. وَبَني أَبي حَسَنٍ وَوَالدِهِم
مَن طابَ في الأَرحامِ وَالصُلبِ
3. Do you see as sin our love for them?
Nay, loving them absolves sin.
٣. أَتَرَونَ ذَنبًا أَن نُحِبَّهُمُ
بَل حُبُّهُم كَفّارَةُ الذَنبِ
