لَو أَنصَفَ الظالِمُ مِن نَفسِهِ
لَأُنصِفَ الظالِمُ في نَفسِهِ
Had the oppressor dealt justly, at his own expense,
the oppressor would himself have been dealt with justly.
إِن كانَ لا يُرحَمُ في يَومِهِ
لَكانَ لا يَرحَمُ في أَمسِهِ
If he is shown no mercy today,
then yesterday he showed no mercy.
Sol 5.6
