Judgement is not befitting of people
Only Our Creator has complete knowledge
None can discern or comprehend likewise
Our Father gives the same choice to all
Both the humble and the prideful
That they should judge or not
Indeed, Our Creator judges the one who judges
Surely, like your dealings He shall deal with you
And by His judgement He gives out mercy
The person who judges by the surface
An impression, a sound, or sight
Our Creator shall be just as harsh in return
Rather, be of correct judgement
And do not exercise it often
All of us as brothers and sisters
Expect events to come to pass
For others to treat us in a certain way
And for one thing to mean another
These are merely expectations
Which may not be correct at all
Until a conclusion must be drawn
And a final judgement called
Be not surprised at these times
When expectations are proven wrong
Indeed, judgement is tempting by way of surety
