Bukanlah hari raya itu bagi mereka yang berpakaian baru, sesungguhnya hari raya itu bagi mereka yang ketaatannya bertambah.
Bukanlah hari raya itu bagi mereka yang berhias dengan pakaian anggun dan kendaraan bersusun, sesungguhnya hari raya itu bagi mereka yang diampuni dosa-dosanya.
Bukanlah hari raya itu bagi mereka yang memperoleh uang atau harta yang berlimpah, sesungguhnya hari raya itu bagi mereka yang taat kepada Yang Maha Perkasa dan Maha Pengampun
