إِنَّ الجَهولَ بِرَأيِهِ اِستِغناؤُهُ

وَبِرَأيِهِ من يَستَبِدُّ مُخاطرُ

The ignorant man is self-sufficient with his opinion,

And with his opinion whoever is arbitrary is at risk.

وَأَخو الحِجى لا يَستَبِدُّ بِرَأيِهِ

مِمّا يَخافُ مِنَ الخَطا ويحاذِرُ

The man of wisdom does not impose his opinion,

Fearing mistakes and cautious of error.
