Sol 6.1

  1. I once said to the woman who reproached me,

    while she was steadfast in our affection:

  2. If you do not see what I see,

    then depart, severing your ties with us.

  3. Do you not see the sons of Hashim,

    whom the unjust faction has already annihilated?

  4. Yet you credit them with guidance,

    while at al-Taff lie the heads of Fatimah's sons.

  5. For had you been firmly grounded in the Book,

    versed in al-Ahzab and knowledgeable,

  6. you would have known that they are a people

    for whom an irrevocable curse had already been decreed.

  7. I shall make my soul a shield for them;

    so do not heap reproach upon me.

  8. Through this I hope for the Messenger's Pool,

    and triumph and everlasting bliss,

  9. so that, if it perishes, it may perish righteous,

    and, if it survives, it may survive with gain.
