Religious innovation (heresy) has been adopted as sanctioned tradition (Sunnah), and the community has become disgraced and reviled.

This couplet captures a deep, sorrowful lament over spiritual and moral decline. The poet grieves how corrupted innovations and falsehoods have been quietly sanctified as revered traditions, blindly accepted by all. When distortions take the place of truth, the community inevitably loses its soul and self-respect, ending up blamed, disgraced, and fractured.
