فَاقْنَعْ بِمَا قَسَمَ الْمَلِيكُ فَإِنَّمَا قَسَمَ الْخَلَائِقَ بَيْنَنَا عَلَّامُهَا
So be content with what the Sovereign has allotted, for the One who knows all has apportioned the people among us.
Faqnaʿ is an imperative meaning “be content.” Al-malīk denotes the sovereign Lord, while ʿallām is an intensive pattern expressing comprehensive knowledge.
The command to accept one’s portion follows the preceding praise of measured judgment. Fa-innamā gives the rationale with emphasis; it is part of the poet’s moral outlook.
