صَحَّفْتُ دَالَيْنِ مِنْ دِينا

صَحَّفْتُ دَالَيْنِ مِنْ دِينا

رٍ يَلُوحُ وَدِرْهَمْ

رٍ يَلُوحُ وَدِرْهَمْ

I misread two dāls in a dina-

I misspelled two dinars as dirhams

r that gleams, and a dirham.

So he said to me, “That is fire,” and then, “Scatter them.”

فَقالَ لي ذَلكُمْ ذي

فَقالَ لي ذَلكُمْ ذي

نارٌ وَذا قالَ ذَرْهُمْ

نارٌ وَذا قالَ ذَرْهُمْ

So that one said to me, “This is

fire,” and this one said, “Leave them.”
