Al-Tāʾiyyah fī al-QadarIbn Taimiya
  1. Granted you have withheld censure from every disbeliever and from every misguided soul who has strayed from the right path,
  2. it would then oblige you to ignore every oppressor(1) who wrongs the people(2) in their lives, their property, or their honor;
  3. so never flare up(3) against a shedder of blood, nor against a thief who steals the possessions of one in dire need,
  4. nor against a man who assails a protected reputation—however exalted—nor against one who indulges in illicit intercourse out of perverse desire(4);
  5. nor against anyone who blocks people from their well-trodden road, nor against a corrupter who spreads havoc throughout the land;
  6. nor against a perjured witness weaving lies and slander, nor against one who hurls accusations of adultery at chaste women(5);
  7. nor against whoever deliberately destroys crops and livestock, nor against a judge who governs humankind for a bribe;
  8. rather, muzzle the tongue of blame toward every evildoer, and inflict no punishment on an offender(6).
