التَّبُّ من صفةِ اليدين لأنها

التَّبُّ من صفةِ اليدين لأنها

جادتْ على الكفار بالإنفاقِ

جادتْ على الكفار بالإنفاقِ

Ruin is an attribute of the two hands, for they

Giving is a trait of the hands for they

gave generously to the unbelievers through spending.

Have been generous to the infidels with charity

وكلاهما عينُ الهلاك ونفسه

وكلاهما عينُ الهلاك ونفسه

فالهلك في الأملاكِ والإرفاقِ

فالهلك في الأملاكِ والإرفاقِ

And both are the very essence of destruction, destruction itself;

And both are the essence of ruin and the soul

thus destruction lies in possessions and in giving aid.

So ruin is in possessions and generosity

نفقتْ يميني وهو عين هلاكها

نفقتْ يميني وهو عين هلاكها

أين الهلاكُ من اسمه الخلاَّقِ

أين الهلاكُ من اسمه الخلاَّقِ

My right hand perished, and that is its very destruction.

My right hand spent while it's the essence of its ruin

How far destruction is from His name, the Ever-Creating!

Where is ruin in the name The Creator?

لولا وجودُ القبضِ ما انبسطتْ لنا

لولا وجودُ القبضِ ما انبسطتْ لنا

كفُّ الكريمِ بسِيبهِ الغَيداقِ

كفُّ الكريمِ بسِيبهِ الغَيداقِ

Were there no withholding, there would not be outstretched to us

If not for the existence of grasping, the palm

the palm of the Generous One, with His copious bounty.

Of the generous wouldn't have opened with his flowing charity
