1. لا تَلتَمِس مِن مَساوي الناس ما سَتَروا

    فَيهتِكَ اللَهُ سَتراً عَن مَساويكا

    Do not seek out the faults that people have concealed,

    lest God tear away the veil over your own faults.

  2. وَاِذكُر مَحاسِنَ ما فيهِم إِذا ذُكِروا

    وَلا تَعِب أَحَداً مِنهُم بِما فيكا

    And speak of the good in them when they are mentioned,

    and fault none of them for what is in you.

  3. وَاِستَغنِ بِاللَهِ عَن كُلِّ فانٍ بِه

    غِنىً لِكُلّ وثق بِاللَهِ يَكفيكا

    And find sufficiency in God, needing nothing that perishes; in Him

    is sufficiency for all. And trust in God; He will suffice you.
