وَلَوْ كَانَ الرَّجُلُ لَا يَتَكَلَّمُ إِلَّا بِمَا يَعْنِيهِ وَلَا يَتَكَلَّفُ مَا قَدْ كُفِيَهُ قَلَّ كَلَامُهُ

If a man spoke only of what concerned him and did not trouble himself with what he had already been spared, he would have little to say.

وَلَوْ حَكَمَ الْعَدْلُ فِي أُمُورِهِ، وَفِيمَا بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ إِخْوَانِهِ وَمُعَامِلِيهِ لَطَابَ عَيْشُهُ

If justice governed his affairs, as well as his dealings with his brothers and associates, his life would be pleasant.

وَتَحْتَاجُ مِنْ هَذَا وَمِثْلِهِ مِمَّا قَدَّمْنَا ذِكْرَهُ إِلَى حِفْظِ السِّرِّ وَوَزْنِ الْقَوْلِ
