Sol 6.1

  1. عليٌّ وأبو ذرٍّ

    ومقدادٌ وسَلمانُ

    Ali and Abu Dharr,

    and Miqdad and Salman,

  2. وعبّاسٌ وعمّارٌ

    وعبدُ الله إخوانُ

    and Abbas and Ammar,

    and Abd Allah are brothers.

  3. دُعوا فاستودِعوا عِلماً

    فأدَّوهُ وما خانوا

    They were summoned and entrusted with knowledge,

    so they conveyed it and did not betray the trust.

  4. فصلّى ربُّ جبريلٍ

    عليهم معشرٌ بانوا

    So may the Lord of Gabriel bless

    them—a company who have departed.

  5. أَدين اللهَ بالدّين ال

    ذي كانوا به دانوا

    I worship God through the faith

    that they professed.

  6. وعندي فيه إيضاح

    عن الحقِّ وبُرهانُ

    And concerning it I have a clear account

    of the truth, and proof.

  7. وما يَجحد ما قد قل

    تُ في السِّبطَيْنِ إنسانُ

    And no human being denies what I have

    said concerning the two grandsons.

  8. وإنْ أنكر ذو النَّصْبِ

    عندي فيهِ عِرْفانُ

    And though the hostile one denies it,

    I have knowledge of it.

  9. وإن عدوّه لي ذَنباً

    وحالُ الوصلِ هِجرانُ

    And if they count it a sin against me,

    and fellowship's state is estrangement,

  10. فلا كان لهذا الذن

    بِ عند القومِ غُفرانُ

    then may this sin never

    find forgiveness among those people.

  11. وكمْ عُدَّتْ إساءاتٌ

    لقومٍ وهي إحسانُ

    And how many deeds are counted as wrongs

    against people, though they are good deeds!

  12. وسّرى فيه يا راعيَ

    دينِ اللهِ إعلانُ

    And my secret in this [reading uncertain], O shepherd

    of God's religion, is an open declaration.

  13. فحُبّي لك إيمانٌ

    ومَيْلي عنكَ كُفرانُ

    For my love for you is faith,

    and my turning away from you is unbelief.

  14. فعدَّ القومُ ذا رفضاً

    فلا عَدُّوا ولا كانوا

    So the people deemed this 'rejectionism';

    then may they neither reckon nor exist!
