iconSufa 104 - The Owner (Al-Mulk)

1O you who believe! Let it be said: Al-Mulk;
2The One, the True, the Only Owner of All Things;
3The first designer, the first creator, the first steward;
4And the seventy-fourth name of Allah, the One, the Absolute, the Almighty.
5Let it be said, no man may claim to be the absolute owner of his land, or house or cattle.
6If a man so arrogantly claim to be the one, the true and only ultimate owner;
7Arrest him and cast him into the deepest pit for his deepest insult against the Divine Owner of All.
8Truly, the madness and ignorance of the Persian and merchants is revealed upon this very idea.
9The Maniacs through their filthy writings claim to be their own idols;
10They claim the Divine Creator has abandoned the earth;
11And they submit to the demon called Sabbat.
12If this be so, then even Sabbat whom is their name for Satan is not the owner.
13We all be stewards and custodians of this life, the land and the animals.
14Thus, when Uthman and the Umay-Yad seize and destroy cities, they own nothing.
15They are a tool of Allah, despite their blasphemy.
16It is why then a man must have witness to his right of custody of an animal or land.
17His neighbours must be able to testify to the truth of his good conduct and fairness as well as possession;
18A claim is nothing without good character and truth.
