1. O estrangement of the Faith! Is there anyone who will show mercy to the strangers—

    who will stand for God, neither out of fear nor desire?

  2. For in the Hadith a mighty reward has come to him:

    indeed, the reward of fifty of you—meaning the Companions.

  3. Then is there a lover who will champion God’s faith,

    truly and sincerely, for God’s sake, seeking His reward;

  4. who will not heed the censure of those who blame him,

    from any person—even if that person faults him, even if he reproaches him?

Sol 5.6
