إذا بِعْثَ مطعوماً بمطعوم آخر

فإن كان بالتأجيل فامنعه مطلقا

If one intoxicant is mixed with another

And if delayed, then prohibit it absolutely

ويُحْرَمُ في الجنس التّفاضلُ إنْ هما

يكونا ذوي قوتٍ وذخرٍ فيُتَّقَى

And comparing within a category is forbidden if both

Have potency and provision, so it must be avoided

وحرِّمْهُمَا في النّقد والجنسُ واحدٌ

وللنسء فامْنَعْ حيثما الجنس ما الْتَقَى

And prohibit both regarding cash, though the category is one

And for metals, so prevent wherever the category has not met

ومهما تبعْ عَرْضاً بِعرضٍ فإِنَّه

سوى الجنس بالتأجيل والفضل يُنْتَقَى

And whatever follows incidentally with an incident, then it

Is the same as delaying and choosing the best is to be avoided

وأَجْرُ اختلاف النفع مجرى تخالف

بجنس هنا فاحفظ فلا زلت ذا تُقَى

And the reward of differing benefits runs the course of differing

In category here, so remember, as long as you have piety
