طَاعَةٌ
وَقَوْلٌ
مَّعْرُوفٌ
فَإِذَا
عَزَمَ
الْأَمْرُ
فَلَوْ
صَدَقُوا
اللَّهَ
لَكَانَ
خَيْرًا
لَّهُمْ
ṭāʿatun wa-qawlun maʿrūfun fa-ʾidhā ʿazama l-ʾamru fa-law ṣadaqū llāha la-kāna khayran lahum
Obedience and upright speech.... So when the matter has been resolved upon [concerning going to war], if they remain true to Allah that will surely be better for them.
— Ali Quli Qarai
Were it to obey and say what is just, and when a matter is resolved on, it were best for them if they were true to Allah.
