وَإذا دَهَتْكَ وَسَاوِسٌ أَوْ حِيرَةٌ

فَاحْزِمْ بِنَفْسِكَ أَحْزَمَ الطّرَفَيْنِ

When doubts or confusion assail you

Gird yourself with self-control, fast as eyes blink.

كَمْ بَيْنَ إيمانٍ بِقُرْآنٍ وبُرْ

هانٍ وكُفْرٍ عاطِلٍ عَنْ ذَيْنِ

What a gulf lies between faith in the Qur’an and piety

Andidle unbelief, blind to the Hereafter!
