وَأَنَّ
هَذَا
صِرَاطِي
مُسْتَقِيمًا
فَاتَّبِعُوهُ
وَلَا
تَتَّبِعُوا
السُّبُلَ
فَتَفَرَّقَ
بِكُمْ
عَن
سَبِيلِهِ
ذَلِكُمْ
وَصَّاكُم
بِهِ
لَعَلَّكُمْ
تَتَّقُونَ

‘This indeed is my straight path, so follow it, and do not follow [other] ways, for they will separate you from His way. This is what He enjoins upon you so that you may be Godwary.’
— Ali Quli Qarai
Verily, this is My way, leading straight: follow it: follow not (other) paths: they will scatter you about from His (great) path: thus doth He command you. that ye may be righteous.
