| 1 | O you who believe! Let it be said: Al-Mu-izz; |
| 2 | The Giver of Honor; The Respecter of Wisdom; The Senior above all. |
| 3 | And the ninety-sixth name of Allah, the One, the Absolute, the Almighty. |
| 4 | A community in which the youth have no respect for the elders is doomed and already dead. |
| 5 | A man who shows respect and honor to his elders, is closest to Allah. |
| 6 | Those that have made the path before us are the first to testify before Allah; |
| 7 | Thus a true Muslim is always respectful to the elders of the community. |
| 8 | If You see one greater in age than you, walk behind him respectfully. |
| 9 | Give a hand to an elder or food or shelter if needed, respect him as his children would. |
| 10 | The arm is not hurt by being bared; |
| 11 | The back is not broken by bending it. |
| 12 | A man does not lose by speaking sweetly, nor does he gain if his speech is straw. |
| 13 | The pilot who sees from afar, he will not wreck his boat. |
| 14 | Do not revile one older than You, |
| 15 | Verily, he shall surely see Allah before you. |
| 16 | He has seen the wisdom of Allah before You. |
| 17 | Let him not report You to Allah, saying this youth reviled an old man. |
| 18 | Verily, to honor an old man or woman is showing respect to Allah. |
| 19 | To every young person who honors the old, on account of their age, |
| 20 | May Allah appoint those who shall honor him in his years. |
