ضَلّوا وَقَد ظَنّوا الهُدى عِندَهُم

إِذا لَيسَ بِالظَنِّ يُنالُ اليَقين

They went astray though they thought they were guided

For certainty is not obtained through guesswork

وَاِنتَحَلوا السَنَةَ دَعوى عَلى

رَفضِهِم حُكمَ الكِتابِ المُبين

And they claimed the tradition in justification

Of their rejection of the clear Scripture's rule
