- Translation
- Main: [imitating and following their manner] and their efforts are due to guidance (hidāyat) and faith (īmān), and violating and withdrawing from laws (sharā’ī) and regulations (qavā’d) is akin to ignorance and loss. And then, since from amongst the seven rights (al-huqūq al-sab’at) that are incumbent and mandatory as an obligatory effort of the faithful [Muslims], [one] is observing [the tenet that mandates] speaking well about and honoring one another, as in accordance with the hadith “revere him in his absence” and conforming to the hadith “the lowest person is one who humiliates others the most”, the lowest people are those who demean others. And in accordance to the hadith “Whoever belittles a poor Muslim, has belittled the rights of God and God will belittle him on the Day of Judgment unless he repents”, disdain toward Muslims is disdain toward God himself for which God will be scorn him on the Day of Judgment unless he brings his scroll of deeds to be confirmed by the recordkeeper of repentance. For whenever the sapling of penitence sprouts from the ground of one’s heart, once the gardener of forgiveness-seeking nourishes it with water of penitence from the streams of his teary eyes, indeed it will generate [divine] acceptance [and forgiveness]. Therefore, the provider of explanation (mu’arrif) and proof (hujjat) of Abbās Ābād and Isfahan, Mawlānā Muhammad Taqī Tabrīzī, became remorseful and repentant from the entirety of forbidden [acts] and collective sins, in word and deed, in particular insulting and gossiping about Muslims and denigrating and belittling and imitating (taqlīd) the faithful, and forego rebellion-inspiring acts and hurt-inflicting words. Verse: I will never hurt a heart, for I fear that it is where you reside. And from the depth of his hearts he resolves [to henceforth not employ the tongue of ridicule and mockery,] Margin: In the meter of Murakkab [meaning ink in imitation of a meter] If you want a good writing utensil (midād) [a black color pencil] sulphate (zāj), take two dirhams tannic acid (māzū), ten dirhams [tree] sap (samgh), and three dirhams [black] sulphate (zāj), With three dirhams ash (dūdih), two dirhams salt, and half dirham of indigo (nīl) And one and half dirhams of good quality saffron, Add half dirham of Egyptian rock candy, [Mix together] until the ink is produced in the inkwell. And also: Of equal weight are ash (dūdih) and [black] sulphate (zāj), of equal weight of both is tannic acid (māzū), Of equal weight of all three is [tree] sap (samgh), and then apply elbow grease [to mix them]
