Reading from the poet’s words: “And likewise you judged by what He decreed…” to his words: “Two opposites in you do not agree”
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reader: “And likewise you judged by what He decreed *** Ignorantly regarding the reports and the Qur’an
And by Allah, they are to you like *** An infallible one, and this is the height of tyranny
Woe to you, what disparagement after this *** If you knew justice from disparagement
And by Allah, He is not pleased that you made Him *** A shield for your shirk (associating partners with Allah) and aggression
And likewise you made the shaykhs a refuge *** Contrary to Him, and the intent is clear
And by Allah bears witness to this, and by Allah bears witness to this by the roots of your hearts *** And likewise the people of faith bear witness to it
And by Allah, you did not magnify him in obedience *** And love, O faction of disobedience
Indeed, your ignorance of him and his religion *** And your contradiction of the revelation are known
Your shaykhs advised you to contradict them *** To agree with him in past times
You contradicted the words of the shaykhs and his word *** So you became two opposites in agreement
And by Allah, your command is strange and astonishing *** Two opposites”
The Shaykh : Astonishing

And by Allah, they are to you like *** An infallible one, and this is the height of tyranny
Woe to you, what disparagement after this *** If you knew justice from disparagement
And by Allah, He is not pleased that you made Him *** A shield for your shirk (associating partners with Allah) and aggression
And likewise you made the shaykhs a refuge *** Contrary to Him, and the intent is clear
And by Allah bears witness to this, and by Allah bears witness to this by the roots of your hearts *** And likewise the people of faith bear witness to it
And by Allah, you did not magnify him in obedience *** And love, O faction of disobedience
Indeed, your ignorance of him and his religion *** And your contradiction of the revelation are known
Your shaykhs advised you to contradict them *** To agree with him in past times

And by Allah, your command is strange and astonishing *** Two opposites”
