Sol 6.1

  1. من يعبدِ الله إنَّ الله قد عُبدا

    ذاك الوحيد فلا تشركْ به أحدا

    Whoever worships God—God has indeed been worshipped.

    He is the One alone; associate no one with Him.

  2. كما أتاك بآي الكهفِ آخرها

    وقد أضاف إليه ذاك فاستندا

    As came to you in the verses of the Cave, in their last,

    He ascribed that to him, so it found support.

  3. ذا الفعل كلف والأفعال أجمعها

    لله ليس لكونِ فعله أبدا

    He was charged with this act; and all acts

    belong to God; no created being ever owns its act.

  4. وقد أضيف إليه وهو فاعله

    لكي يميز من أقرَّ أو جحدا

    Yet it has been ascribed to him, while He is its doer,

    to distinguish whoever acknowledges or denies.

  5. إن الحقائقَ لم تتركْ لنا سَبَداً

    بما أتينا به فيه ولا لَبدا

    Indeed, the realities have left us not a hair,

    in what we have brought forth concerning it, nor any wool.

  6. فكل فعل فإن الله خالقه

    وقد جعلت له من دونه سندا

    For every act, God is indeed its creator,

    yet you have given it a support besides Him,

  7. لكي يصيب فلا تحظى إضافته

    إذا أضاف إليه فعل ما شهدا

    so that he may be right; his attribution gains no favor

    when he ascribes to Him what he has witnessed being done.

  8. ولا يحاسب إلا من عقيدته

    هذا الذي قلته عَدلاً كما وردا

    One is held to account only according to one's belief—

    this is what I have said, justly, as it has come down—

  9. إلا الذي قالها في الله من أدبٍ

    لا باعتقادٍ فيجزيه بما قصدا

    except one who said it concerning God out of courtesy,

    not from conviction; so He rewards him for what he intended.

  10. وتلك مسألةٌ حار الأنام لها

    وليس يعرفها إلا الذي شهدا

    And that is a question that has bewildered humankind,

    and none knows it but the one who has witnessed.
