فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ أَبْيَاتاً قَالَ...
فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ أَبْيَاتاً قَالَ الْعُكْلِيُّ الْحِرْمَازِيُّ وَ لَا أَدْرِي أَ هِيَ لَهُ أَمْ لِغَيْرِهِ كَيْ تَلْزَمُوا الْحَقَّ وَحْدَهُ- وَ نَضْرِبُكُمْ حَتَّى يَكُونَ لَنَا الْحُكْمُ فَإِنْ تَتْبَعُوا حُكْمَ الْإِلَهِ يَكُنْ لَكُمْ- إِذَا مَا اصْطَلَحْنَا الْحَقُّ وَ الْأَمْنُ وَ السِّلْمُ- وَ إِلَّا فَإِنَّ الْمَشْرَفِيَّةَ مِحْذَمٌ- بِأَيْدِي رِجَالٍ فِيهِمُ الدِّينُ وَ الْعِلْمُ Abdullah Bin Wahab said some couplets.
Al-Akly Al-Hirmazy said, ‘ And I don’t know is it for him or of someone else’ – ‘So that you can necessitate the truth alone, and we shall keep striking until the judgment happens to be for us. So, if you were to follow a Judgment of God, it would happen to be for you, then we will not adopt the truth and the security and the peace, or else the supervision is more honourable, in the hands of the men among whom is the religion and the knowledge ’.
فَقَالَ صَعْصَعَةُ كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْكَ يَا أَخَا رَاسِبٍ مُرَمَّلًا بِدِمَائِكَ يَحْجُلُ الطَّيْرُ بِأَشْلَائِكَ لَا تُجَابُ لَكُمْ دَاعِيَةٌ وَ لَا تَسْمَعُ مِنْكُمْ وَاعِيَةٌ يَسْتَحِلُّ ذَلِكَ مِنْكُمْ إِمَامٌ هُدًى Sa’sa said, ‘It is as if I am looking at you, O brother of Rasib, rolling in your blood, the birds plucking your body parts. Neither a supplication is being answered for you, nor any information is been heard from you. That is released from you by an Imam -asws of guidance’.
قَالَ الرَّاسِبِيُ سَيَعْلَمُ اللَّيْثُ إِذَا الْتَقَيْنَا- دَوْرَ الرَّحَى عَلَيْهِ أَوْ عَلَيْنَا- Al-Rasy said (a couplet), ‘ The lion will come to know when we meet whether the grinding of the mill is upon him or upon us ’.
أَبْلِغْ صَاحِبَكَ أَنَّا غَيْرُ رَاجِعِينَ عَنْهُ أَوْ يُقِرَّ لِلَّهِ بِكُفْرِهِ أَوْ يَخْرُجَ عَنْ ذَنْبِهِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ قَابِلُ التَّوْبِ شَدِيدُ الْعِقَابِ وَ غَافِرُ الذَّنْبِ فَإِذَا فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ بَذَلْنَا الْمُهَجَ Deliver to your companion I will not be returning from him -asws . Either he -asws acknowledge to Allah -azwj of his -asws Kufr or he -asws exits from his -asws religion, for Allah -azwj is an Accepter of the repentance, severe of Punishment, and Forgiver of the sins.
So, when he -asws does that, we shall make efforts in the battle’. فَقَالَ صَعْصَعَةُ عِنْدَ الصَّبَاحِ يَحْمَدُ الْقَوْمُ السُّرَى Sa’sa said (a verse), ‘ In the morning the people would be praised secretly ’.
