قال يا قوم ارايتم ان كنت على بينة من ربي ورزقني منه رزقا حسنا وما اريد ان اخالفكم الى ما انهاكم عنه ان اريد الا الاصلاح ما استطعت وما توفيقي الا بالله عليه توكلت واليه انيب

He said: "O my people! See ye whether I have A Clear (Sign) from my Lord, And He hath given me Sustenance (pure and) good As from Himself? I wish not, In opposition to you, to do That which I forbid you to do. I only desire (your) betterment To the best of my power; And my success (in my task) Can only come from God. In Him I trust, And unto Him I look.
