And you stood up (to face difficulties) when they became showed weak-heartedness, And you abode by the course of Allah’s Messenger—peace be upon him and his Household—as they were his companions, And you were truly his vicegerent. No one could ever compete with you or vie with you in this position In spite of the existence of hypocrites and the despise of the unbelievers, And the malice of the enviers and the disgrace of the wicked ones. You thus managed the matters when they failed to do so And you spoke (the truth) when they stammered, And you carried on with the light of Allah when they stopped. As they followed you, they were guided (to the true path), You voice was the lowest (out of politeness) and was the highest in supplication, And you were the least in speaking and the you were the most eloquent of them,
