the bounds of equity to exercise beneficence, and
beyond the bounds of obligatory duties to do what
is not obligatory: the other is disapproved, and
this is the
passing beyond the bounds of that which
is true, or
right, to do that which is false, or

What
have I to do with wrongful conduct, the wrongful
conduct
of one of you towards another?], for

found in pronouncing the kesreh after the
