1. لَو أَنَّ كُلَّ يَسيرٍ رُدَّ مُحتَقَراً

    لَم يَقبَلِ اللَهُ يَوماً لِلوَرى عَمَلا

    If every small offering were rejected with contempt,

    God would never accept a deed from humankind.

  2. فَالمَرءُ يُهدي عَلى مِقدارِ قُدرَتِهِ

    وَالنَملُ يُعذَرُ في القَدرِ الَّذي حَمَلا

    For a person gives according to the measure of his ability,

    And the ant is excused for the amount it has carried.
