1. مَن ظَنَّ أنَّ العُلا بالمالِ يجمَعُهُ

    فاعلَمْ بأنَّ غِناهُ فَقرُهُ أبَدا

    Whoever thinks he gains eminence through wealth,

    then know that his wealth is forever his poverty.

  2. فاستَغْنِ بالعِلمِ والتَّقوى وكُنْ رَجلاً

    لا يَرتَجي غيرَ رزّاقِ الوَرى أحَدا

    So find sufficiency in knowledge and piety, and be a man

    who places his hope in no one but the Provider of humankind.
