O one who seeks to question my creed inquisitively,
ُ
Upon such seeker, may guidance be bestowed gracefully.
اسْمَع ْ كَلام َ مُحَقِِّق ٍ فِي قَـولـِه
To the speech of one who is authentic, listen attentively,
ُ
لا َ يَنْـثَنِي عَنْـه ُ وَ لا َ يَتَبَـدَّل
Not deviating from it nor distorting – consistently.
حُبِالصَّحابَةكلِِّهِم ْ لِي مَذْهَب
Loving all companions is for me the methodology,
ُ
وَ مَوَ دَّة ُ القُرْ بَى بِهَا أَتَوَ سِّــل
And I intercede through love of the Prophet’s family
وَ لِكُلِِّهِم ْ قَـدْر عَلا َ وَ فَضَائل
For them are virtues with statuses so lofty,
لكِنَّمَاُالصِ ِّدِِّيقُمِ نْهُم ْ أَفْضَـل
Yet As-Ṣiddīq amongst them is of most nobility.
وَ أَقُول ُ فِيِالقُرْ آنِمَا جَاءَت ْ بِـه
I say regarding the Qur’ān what’s therein clearly,
ُ
آياتُـه ُ فَهْو َ الْكَرِ يم ُ الْـمُنزَ ل
For it is the noble revelation, descended gloriously.
