May Allah have mercy on ash-Shafi'i who said:
When my heart is hard and my positions are constricted,
I make my hope a ladder to reach Your pardon.
My wrong actions seem immense to me. But in relation
to Your pardon, my Lord, Your pardon is far greater.
You continue to possess generosity, abundant favour and grace,
showing generosity, pardon and nobility.
Would that I knew whether I will go to the Garden and rejoice
or go the Hellfire, full of regret.
