Except for Mecca, his land and his decision *** but they prophesied about it and turned away Likewise, he migrated towards you when he came *** Verily Madinah is an emigration, so bear it So you paid and settled and helped *** the best of the wilderness is your right to do The virtue of the city is clear to its people *** An ancient virtue whose light rejoices Whoever does not say that virtue is incomprehensible *** We said you lied and saying that is despicable There is no good in the one who does not know your kindness *** Whoever was ignorant of him, we are not ignorant In your land is the tomb of the Prophet and his house *** and the tallest, high pulpit And there are the graves of the forerunners, thanks to them *** Omar and his companion, the best companion And the auspicious progeny that is in it *** precedes the virtue of everyone who is kind The family of the Prophet built on the assumption that they had become a light for the wilderness that includes O you who go to the same city *** in you are the little ones and your cheek goes down! I am for her and her family s desires *** and her affection is a right upon the one who is sensible Say to Al-Madani who scorns David *** the prince, urging and hurrying David came to you after your book *** Your rope in your ruler was twisting So seek your commander and seek help from him, and do not fall into a great town, so your admonition is better The leg of the god in the belly of Mecca is a dime *** narrated by it and on the city to follow The seventy-fourth part ended (the first volume of the Meccan conquests was completed, followed by the second volume, beginning with the seventy-third chapter, which is the beginning of the seventy-fifth volume, according to the author s division) |
