TRUE FRIEND
أحب من الاخوان كل مواتي
وكل غضيض الطرف عن عثرتي
I crave a friend who is alive, willing to keep my private mistakes private
يوافقني في كل أمر أريده
ويحفظني حيا وبعد مماتي
A good friend is one who is often in line with me and who keeps my good name when I live or after I die
فمن لي بهذا? ليت أني أصبته
لقاسمته مالى من الحسنات
Who can do that? If I find a friend like that, I'll give you whatever I have
صفحت اخوانى فكان أقلهم
على كثرة الاخوان أهل ثقاتى
I have been hanging out with my friends, but all I can trust is a small part of most of them
Allah ﷻ Speaks
الاخلآء يومئذ بعضهم لبعض عدو الا المتقين
The intimate friends of the day (the Day of Resurrection) are hostile to one another, except those who are devoted
QS. Az-Zukhruf: Verse 67
Kitab Hilyah Al-Auliya
والله أعلم بالصواب
