14ـ بادِروُا آجالَكُمْ بِأعْمالِكُمْ...

14ـ بادِروُا آجالَكُمْ بِأعْمالِكُمْ، وابتاعُوا ما يَبْقى لَكُمْ بِما يَزُولُ عَنْكُمْ. Hasten [to do good] with your wealth before your deaths come upon you, so that it may purify you, set you aright and bring you closer [to Allah]. 15ـ بادِرُوا بِأمْوالِكُمْ قَبلَ حُلُولِ آجالِكُمْ تُزَكِّكُمْ وتُصْلِحْكُمْ وَتُزْلِفْكُمْ. Hasten towards obedience [to Allah] and you will be felicitous. 16ـ بادِرِ (باكِر) الطَّاعَةَ تَسْعَدْ. Hasten towards good and you will be guided.

17ـ بادِرِ الخَيْرَ تَرْشُدْ. Hasten [to do good] before the coming of the hidden awaited one. 18ـ بادِرُوا قَبْلَ قُدُومِ الغائبِ المُنْتَظَرِ. Anticipate death and its throes, prepare for it before its arrival and get ready for it before it descends. 19ـ بادِرُوا المَوْتَ وغَمَراتِهِ، ومَهِّدُوا لَهُ قَبْلَ حُلُولِهِ وأعِدُّوا لَهُ قَبْلَ نُزولِهِ.

Hasten [to act] in the period of guidance and repose of the bodies, and in your remaining lifetime, and while you have the ability to act by volition. 20ـ بادِرُوا في فَيْنَةِ الإرْشادِ، وراحَةِ الأجسادِ، ومَهَلِ البَقِيَّةِ، وأنْفِ المَشِيَّةِ. Hasten in performing your good deeds and compete with your deaths, for you will be compensated for what you sent forward, rewarded for what you did beforehand and held accountable for what you left behind.

21ـ بادِرُوا أعْمالَكُمْ، وسابِقُوا آجالَكُمْ، فَإنَّكُمْ مَدينُونَ بِما أسْلَفْتُمْ، وَمُجازَوْنَ بِما قَدَّمْتُمْ، ومُطالَبُونَ بِما خَلَّفْتُمْ. Surpass your hope and anticipate the assault of death, for people are on the verge of having their hopes cut short and being surprised by death. 22ـ بادِرُوا الأمَلَ، وسابِقُوا هُجومَ الأجَلِ، فَإنَّ النَّاسَ يُوشِكُ أنْ يَنْقَطِعَ بِهِمُ الأمَلُ، فَيَرْهَقُهُمُ الأجَلُ. Hurry to take advantage of opportunity before it becomes [a cause of] distress.

23ـ بادِرِ الفُرْصَةَ قَبْلَ أنْ تَـكُونَ غُصَّةً. Blessed is the one who hastens to perform good deeds before his means are cut short. 24ـ طُوبى لِمَنْ بادَرَ صالِحَ العَمَلِ قَبْلَ أنْ تَنْقَطِعَ أسْبابُهُ. Blessed is he who anticipates death, takes advantage of respite and prepares the provision of good deeds [for the Hereafter]. 25ـ طُوبى لِمَنْ بادَرَ الأجَلَ، واغْتَنَمَ المَهَلَ، وتَزَوَّدَ مِنَ العَمَلِ.
