“اصنع الخير عند إمكانه يبقى لك حمده عند زواله، وأحسن والدولة لك يحسن لك، والدولة عليك، واجعل زمان رخائك عدة لزمان بلائك.

Perform good acts when you have the ability and its praise (rewards) will remain for you when the ability to do these acts leaves you, and do good when you are in power and you will be treated well, as well as when others have power over you, and make your times of ease a preparation for difficult times.”
