رَأَيتُ صَلاحَ المَرءِ يُصلِحُ أَهلَهُ

وَيُعديهِمُ داءُ الفَسادِ إِذا فَسَد

I have seen a man’s righteousness set his household right,

And corruption’s sickness infect them should he become corrupt.

يُعَظَّم في الدُنيا بِفَضلِ صَلاحِهِ

وَيُحفَظُ بَعدَ المَوتِ في الأَهلِ وَالوَلَد

He is held in honor in this world through the merit of his righteousness,

And after death is remembered among his family and children.
