Reading from the poet's words: "And the great trial is from the climber..." to his words: "...I coveted this and was deceived by Satan"
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reader: "And the great trial is from the climber, *** the deceived one with the claim, brother of nonsense.
He did not know the knowledge in which the words lie, *** nor has he any familiarity with this matter.
But he is a stranger to it, not from *** its inhabitants, no, nor from its neighbors.
So he is the impostor, a claimant to a people *** from whom he was not, and he did not accompany them in any place."
The Shaykh : He did not accompany them in any place.
The reader: "So he is the impostor, a claimant to a people *** from whom he was not, and he did not accompany them in any place.
And their speech is always with him ambiguous, *** and he is far removed from the command of certainty.
He seeks trade with counterfeit coins, thinking them *** genuine, valid currency, while he is one of invalidity.
Until when they were returned to him, he was met *** by the disgrace and lowliness of their rejection.
So he sought to validate them, for the currency of the counterfeits *** did not circulate in the prices.
And he saw the impossibility of this without slandering *** the rest of the coins, so he came with aggression.
And he sought to replace the correct price with his ignorance, *** and with his injustice he seeks it through slander.
A distortion, so that his currency would be safe among people *** and would circulate among them with complete weights.
And people are not qualified to appraise what *** has been said, except the individual in the ages.
And the counterfeit among them is the currency that *** has circulated in the travels and the lands.
For they have agreed upon it and accepted *** its permissibility openly without concealment.
So if one comes to them with other than it, even if it were *** pure, refined gold, free of dross.
They would reject it and apologize, saying their currency *** is from other than it, by the ceremonies of the sultan.
So if we transact with currency other than it, *** our connections with the treasury would be cut off.
And by Allah, we have heard this from them, and we *** did not lie to them, woe to the one of slander.
O you who desire a trade that saves you from *** the anger of the Divine and the kindling of the fires.
And profits you with the gardens, *** the beautiful houris, and the vision of the Most Merciful.
In a Paradise that is pure and whose pleasure endures, *** for perishment has no authority over it.
Prepare for it a price that is sold for its like, *** it is not bought with counterfeit among prices.
A currency with a Prophetic mint, *** struck in the city, the noblest of lands.
Did you think, O deluded one, that its seller *** would accept currency struck by Genghis Khan?
Your soul, by Allah, has granted you the impossible, *** that you coveted this and were deceived by Satan."
So listen then.
The Shaykh : That is enough for you
