iconSufa 50 - The Transgression (Al-Aonaba)

1O People! There is no other deity but Allah!
2The Compassionate, the Beneficent, the Gracious;
3All praise and worship be to Allah and no other!
4The failure, the lapse, the weakness, the impulse;
5The choice, the breach, the forfeit, the injury;
6The deception, the objection and manipulation;
7Thus in the face of transgression, the penitent is remorseful,
8For assistance and for forgiveness.
9Can anyone walk through water without wetting his feet?
10Thus, no man may claim to be free from transgression.
11Given unto us is the ability to learn, to reason and to choose by free will.
12Any man who denies the right of such gifts is culpable of the gravest injury against Allah,
13And is not worthy to be known as a Muslim.
14Verily, it is because of these gifts that the injury of transgression exists.
15The Umay-Yad are but the monkeys of vile merchants and the Persians.
16Thus, it is the merchants and Persians that shall be held account first,
17Before any of those who did behave like animals.
18If all men behaved as lunatics, without the ability to learn, to reason or choose by free will,
19Then Allah could no more hold a man to account for his actions, than a wild dog killing a goat.
20It is because we can think, it is because we can learn and reason,
21That Allah demands we stand to account for our actions.
22Therefore if a man pleads himself as a mindless animal for his actions,
23Then must be treated as one treats wild dogs that attack your flock.
24This is the way in treating the Umay-Yad and those that follow their lies.
25But is a man accepts he is responsible for his own actions,
26Then let him speak and give account for himself according to the law.
27When a man commits infidelity, the spirit of faith leaves him;
28But when he leaves such evil ways, the spirit of faith will return.
29The infidelity of the eye is to look with desire on the wife of another;
30And the infidelity of the tongue is to utter what is forbidden.
31Every wandering eye of a married man or woman that stares upon another with crude intent is a philanderer.
32If an unmarried woman dresses immodestly, perfumes herself and goes to an assembly where married may be,
33She is guilty only of poor self-respect.
34But if a man stares upon her with crude intent in mind,
35Then he is guilty of infidelity.
36The sharp word or hasty sword is a sure sign of weakness or guilt.
37The husband who disgraces his marriage through infidelity is always the loudest to claim adultery.
38The greatest crime against Allah is not the one who kills others in the name of the Divine Creator,
39But the scholar who wrote such lies and the preacher whom gives life to such evil.
40Allah blessed men and women with the ability to construct civilization and the rule of natural and fair law.
41When a scholar raises himself above the laws of the community and seeks to usurp the law,
42He is committing a grave crime against Islam.
43Thus, the greatest sin, above all others in Islam is to kill in the name of Allah.
44Thus, the greatest sin in Islam is for a man to place himself as a god above others.
45Verily, this is the law.
46It is a grave transgression against Allah and Islam to destroy religious sites, holy books and knowledge of any community.
47It is a grave transgression against Islam to act or accept Kingship.
48Rule by birthright is forbidden in Islam and anyone who commits this crime is an imposter and not a true Muslim.
49It is a most grave transgression against Islam to give a Martyr's funeral to one who deliberately caused the deaths of women and children by his actions.
50Any man or woman who is cruel to living animals is a disgrace in the eyes of Allah.
51A man or woman who is cruel in private but pleasant in public is a coward and unfit to be called a Muslim.
52Allah sees all and upon their time they must account for what was done in secret and in the open.
