بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحٖیمِ
In the Name of Allah, the All-beneficent, the All-merciful. اَللّٰهُمَّ إِنّٖى أَسْأَلُكَ بِرَحْمَتِكَ الَّتٖى وَسِعَتْ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ، O Allah, I ask You by Your mercy, which embraces all things;وَبِقُوَّتِكَ الَّتٖى قَهَرْتَ بِهاٰ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ، وَخَضَعَ لَهاٰ كُلُّ شَىْءٍ، وَذَلَّ لَهاٰ كُلُّ شَىْءٍ، And by Your strength, through which You dominatest all things, And toward which all things are humble And before which all things are lowly;وَبِجَبَرُوتِكَ الَّتٖى غَلَبْتَ بِهاٰ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ، وَبِعِزَّتِكَ الَّتٖى لاٰيَقُومُ لَهاٰ شَىْءٌ،And by Your invincibility through which You overwhelmest all things, And by Your might, which nothing can resist;وَ بِعَظَمَتِكَ الَّتٖى مَلَأَتْ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ، وَ بِسُلْطاٰنِكَ الَّذٖى عَلاٰ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ،And by Your tremendousness, which has filled all things; by Your force, which towers over all things;وَ بِوَجْهِكَ الْباقٖى بَعْدَ فَنآٰءِ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ، وَبِأَسْمآٰئِكَ الَّتٖى مَلَأَتْ أَرْكاٰنَ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ،And by Your face, which subsists after the annihilation of all things, And by Your Names, which have filled the foundations of all things;وَبِعِلْمِكَ الَّذٖى أَحاٰطَ بِكُلِّ شَىْءٍ، وَبِنُورِ وَجْهِكَ الَّذٖى أَضآٰءَ لَهُ كُلُّ شَىْءٍ؛And by Your knowledge, which encompasses all things; And by the light of Your face, through which all things are illumined!ياٰ نُورُ ياٰ قُدُّوسُ، ياٰ أَوَّلَ الْأَوَّلٖينَ، وَياٰ اٰخِرَ الْاٰخِرِينَ . O Light! O All-holy! O First of those who are first And O Last of those who are last!اَللّٰهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِىَ الذُّنُوبَ الَّتٖى تَهْتِكُ الْعِصَمَ. O Allah, forgive me those sins which tear apart safeguards!اَللّٰهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِىَ الذُّنُوبَ الَّتٖى تُنْزِلُ النِّقَمَ. O Allah, forgive me those sins which draw down adversities!اَللّٰهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِىَ الذُّنُوبَ الَّتٖى تُغَيِّرُ النِّعَمَ. O Allah, forgive me those sins which alter blessings!اَللّٰهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِىَ الذُّنُوبَ الَّتٖى تَحْبِسُ الدُّعآٰءَ. O Allah forgive me those sins which hold back supplication!(اَللّٰهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِيَ الذُّنُوبَ الَّتٖى تَقْطَعُ الرَّجَاء)( O Allah forgive me those sins which cut down the hopes!)اَللّٰهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِىَ الذُّنُوبَ الَّتٖى تُنْزِلُ الْبَلآٰءَ؛ O Allah, forgive me those sins which draw down tribulation!اَللّٰهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لٖى كُلَّ ذَنْبٍ أَذْنَبْتُهُ، وَكُلَّ خَطٖيٓئَةٍ أَخْطَأْتُهاٰ. O Allah, forgive me every sin I have committed and every mistake I have made!اَللّٰهُمَّ إِنّٖى أَتَقَرَّبُ إِلَيْكَ بِذِكْرِكَ، وَأَسْتَشْفِعُ بِكَ إِلٰى نَفْسِكَ،O Allah, verily I seek nearness to You through remembrance of You, And I seek intercession from You with Yourself,وَأَسْأَلُكَ بِجُودِكَ أَنْ تُدْنِيَنٖى مِنْ قُرْبِكَ، وَأَنْ تُوزِعَنٖى شُكْرَكَ، وَأَنْ تُلْهِمَنٖى ذِكْرَكَ.And I ask You through Your munificence to bring me near to Your proximity, And to provide me with gratitude toward You And to inspire me with Your remembrance.اَللّٰهُمَّ إِنّٖى أَسْأَلُكَ سُؤاٰلَ خاٰضِعٍ مُتَذَلِّلٍ خاٰشِعٍ، أَنْ تُساٰمِحَنٖى وَتَرْحَمَنٖى، وَتَجْعَلَنٖى بِقِسْمِكَ راٰضٖيًا قانِعًا، وَفٖى جَمٖيعِ الْأَحْواٰلِ مُتَواٰضِعًا؛O Allah, verily I ask You with the asking of a submissive, abased and lowly man to show me forbearance, to have mercy on me And to make me satisfied and content with Your appointment and [make me] humble in every state.اَللّٰهُمَّ وَأَسْأَلُكَ سُؤاٰلَ مَنِ اشْتَدَّتْ فاٰقَتُهُ، وَأَنْزَلَ بِكَ عِنْدَ الشَّدآٰئِدِ حاٰجَتَهُ، وَعَظُمَ فٖيماٰ عِنْدَكَ رَغْبَتُهُ.O Allah, I ask You the question of one whose indigence is extreme, And who has stated to You in difficulties his need And whose desire for what is with You has become great.اَللّٰهُمَّ عَظُمَ سُلْطاٰنُكَ، وَعَلاٰ مَكاٰنُكَ، وَخَفِىَ مَكْرُكَ، وَظَهَرَ أَمْرُكَ، وَغَلَبَ قَهْرُكَ، وَجَرَتْ قُدْرَتُكَ، وَلاٰ يُمْكِنُ الْفِراٰرُ مِنْ حُكُومَتِكَ؛O Allah, Your force is tremendous, Your place is lofty, And Your plan is hidden, Your command is manifest, And Your domination is overwhelming, Your power is unhindered And escape from Your governance is impossible.اَللّٰهُمَّ لاٰ أَجِدُ لِذُنُوبٖى غاٰفِرًا، وَلاٰ لِقَبآٰئِحٖى ساٰتِرًا، وَلاٰ لِشَىْءٍ مِنْ عَمَلِىَ الْقَبٖيحِ بِالْحَسَنِ مُبَدِّلًا غَيْرَكَ،O Allah, I find no forgiver of my sins, Nor concealer of my ugly acts Nor transformer of any of my ugly acts into good acts but Youلاٰإِلٰهَ إِلّاٰ أَنْتَ سُبْحاٰنَكَ وَبِحَمْدِكَ، ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسٖى، وَتَجَرَّأْتُ بِجَهْلٖى، وَسَكَنْتُ إِلٰى قَدٖيمِ ذِكْرِكَ لٖى وَمَنِّكَ عَلَىَّ.There is no god but Allah! Glory be to You, and Thine is the praise! I have wronged myself, And I have been audacious in my ignorance And I have depended upon Your ancient remembrance of me and Your favour toward me.اَللّٰهُمَّ مَوْلاٰىَ كَمْ مِنْ قَبٖيحٍ سَتَرْتَهُ، وَكَمْ مِنْ فاٰدِحٍ مِنَ الْبَلآٰءِ أَقَلْتَهُ،O Allah! O my Protector! How many ugly things You hast concealed! How many burdensome tribulations You hast abolished!وَكَمْ مِنْ عِثاٰرٍ وَقَيْتَهُ، وَكَمْ مِنْ مَكْرُوهٍ دَفَعْتَهُ، وَكَمْ مِنْ ثَنآٰءٍ جَمٖيلٍ لَسْتُ أَهْلًا لَهُ نَشَرْتَهُ؛And how many stumbles You hast prevented! And how many ordeals You hast repelled! And how much beautiful praise, for which I was unworthy, You hast spread abroad!اَللّٰهُمَّ عَظُمَ بَلآٰئٖى، وَأَفْرَطَ بٖى سُوٓءُ حاٰلٖى، وَقَصُرَتْ بٖى أَعْماٰلٖى، وَقَعَدَتْ بٖى أَغْلاٰلٖى،O Allah, my tribulation is tremendous, And my bad state is excessive, And my acts are inadequate, And my fetters have tied me down,وَحَبَسَنٖى عَنْ نَفْعٖى بُعْدُ أَمَلٖى، وَخَدَعَتْنِى الدُّنْياٰ بِغُرُورِهاٰ، وَنَفْسٖى بِجِناٰيَتِهاٰ وَمِطاٰلٖى،And my far-fetched hopes have held me back from my gain And this world with its delusions, my own soul with its offences and my delay have deceived me.ياٰ سَيِّدٖى فَأَسْأَلُكَ بِعِزَّتِكَ أَنْ لاٰيَحْجُبَ عَنْكَ دُعآٰئٖى سُوٓءُ عَمَلٖى وَفِعاٰلٖى،O my Master! So I ask You by Your might not to let my evil works and acts veil my supplication from You,وَلاٰ تَفْضَحْنٖى بِخَفِيِّ مَا اطَّلَعْتَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ سِرّٖى، وَلاٰ تُعاٰجِلْنٖى بِالْعُقُوبَةِ عَلٰى ماٰ عَمِلْتُهُ فٖى خَلَواٰتٖىAnd not to disgrace me through the hidden things You knowest of my secrets And not to hasten me to punishment for what I have done in private:مِنْ سُوٓءِ فِعْلٖى وَ إِسآٰءَتٖى، وَدَواٰمِ تَفْرٖيطٖى وَجَهاٰلَتٖى، وَكَثْرَةِ شَهَواٰتٖى وَغَفْلَتٖى؛ My evil acts in secrecy and my misdeeds And my continuous negligence and my ignorance And my manifold passions and my forgetfulness.وَ كُنِ اللّٰهُمَّ بِعِزَّتِكَ لٖى فٖى كُلِّ الْأَحْواٰلِ رَؤُفًا، وَعَلَىَّ فٖى جَمٖيعِ الْأُمُورِ عَطُوفًا،And by Your might, O Allah, be kind to me in all states And be gracious to me in all affairs!إِلٰهٖى وَرَبّٖى مَنْ لٖى غَيْرُكَ، أَسْأَلُهُ كَشْفَ ضُرّٖى، وَالنَّظَرَ فٖى أَمْرٖى؛ My Allah and my Lord! Have I any but You from whom to ask removal of my affliction and regard for my affairs!إِلٰهٖى وَمَوْلاٰىَ أَجْرَيْتَ عَلَىَّ حُكْمًاࣙ اتَّبَعْتُ فِيهِ هَوىٰ نَفْسٖى، وَلَمْ أَحْتَرِسْ فٖيهِ مِنْ تَزْيٖينِ عَدُوّٖى،My Allah and my Protector! You put into effect through me a decree in which I followed the caprice of my own soul And [I] did not remain wary of adorning my enemy.فَغَرَّنٖى بِماٰ أَهْوٰى وَأَسْعَدَهُ عَلٰى ذٰلِكَ الْقَضآٰءُ، فَتَجاٰوَزْتُ بِماٰ جَرٰى عَلَىَّ مِنْ ذٰلِكَ بَعْضَ حُدُودِكَ ، وَخاٰلَفْتُ بَعْضَ أَواٰمِرِكَ،So he deluded me through my soul's caprice and therein destiny favoured him So, in what was put into effect through me in that situation, I transgressed some of Your statutes And disobeyed some of Your commands.فَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ[الْحُجَّةُ] عَلَىَّ فٖى جَمٖيعِ ذٰلِكَ؛ وَلاٰ حُجَّةَ لٖى فٖيماٰ جَرٰى عَلَىَّ فٖيهِ قَضَآٰؤُكَ، وَأَلْزَمَنٖى حُكْمُكَ وَبَلآٰؤُكَ،So Thine is the argument against me in all of that I have no argument in what Your destiny put into effect through me therein nor in what Your decree and Your tribulation imposed upon me.وَقَدْ أَتَيْتُكَ ياٰ إِلٰهٖى بَعْدَ تَقْصٖيرٖى وَ إِسْرافٖى عَلٰى نَفْسٖى، مُعْتَذِرًا ناٰدِمًا مُنْكَسِرًا مُسْتَقٖيلًا مُسْتَغْفِرًا مُنٖيبًا مُقِرًّا مُذْعِنًا مُعْتَرِفًا،Now I have come to You, My God, after my shortcoming and my immoderation toward myself, Proffering my excuse, regretful, Broken, apologizing, Asking forgiveness, repenting, Acknowledging, submissive, confessing.لاٰ أَجِدُ مَفَرًّا مِمّاٰ كاٰنَ مِنّٖى وَلاٰ مَفْزَعًا أَتَوَجَّهُ إِلَيْهِ فٖى أَمْرٖى، غَيْرَ قَبُولِكَ عُذْرٖى وَ إِدْخالِكَ إٖيّاٰىَ فٖى سَعَةِ رَحْمَتِكَ.I find no place to flee from what occurred through me, Nor any place of escape to which I may turn in my affairs, Other than Your acceptance of my excuse and Your entering me into the compass of Your mercy.اَللّٰهُمَّ فَاقْبَلْ عُذْرٖى، وَارْحَمْ شِدَّةَ ضُرّٖى، وَفُكَّنٖى مِنْ شَدِّ وَثاٰقٖى؛O Allah, so accept my excuse, Have mercy upon the severity of my affliction And release me from the tightness of my fetters,ياٰ رَبِّ ارْحَمْ ضَعْفَ بَدَنٖى، وَرِقَّةَ جِلْدٖى، وَدِقَّةَ عَظْمٖى، My Lord, have mercy upon the weakness of my body, the thinness of my skin and the frailty of my bones.ياٰ مَنْ بَدَءَ خَلْقٖى وَذِكْرٖى وَتَرْبٖيَتٖى وَبِرّٖى وَتَغْذِيَتٖى، هَبْنٖى لِابْتِدآٰءِ كَرَمِكَ وَساٰلِفِ بِرِّكَ بٖى.O You who gave rise to my creation, to the remembrance of me, to the nurture of me, to goodness toward me and to nourishment on me, Bestow upon me for the sake of Your having given rise [to me] with generosity and Your previous goodness to me!ياٰ إِلٰهٖى وَسَيِّدٖى وَرَبّٖى، أَتُراٰكَ مُعَذِّبٖى بِناٰرِكَ بَعْدَ تَوْحٖيدِكَ، وَبَعْدَ مَا انْطَوٰى عَلَيْهِ قَلْبٖى مِنْ مَعْرِفَتِكَ، وَلَهِجَ بِهٖ لِسَانٖى مِنْ ذِكْرِكَ، وَاعْتَقَدَهُ ضَمٖيرٖى مِنْ حُبِّكَ،O Allah, my Master and my Lord! Canst You see Yourself tormenting me with Your fire after I have professed Your Unity And after the knowledge of You my heart has embraced, And the remembrance of You my tongue has constantly mentioned And the love of You to which my mind has clung,وَبَعْدَ صِدْقِ اعْتِرافٖى وَدُعآٰئٖى خاٰضِعًا لِرُبُوبٖيَّتِكَ؛ And after the sincerity of my confession and my supplication, humble before Your lordship?هَيْهاٰتَ أَنْتَ أَكْرَمُ مِنْ أَنْ تُضَيِّعَ مَنْ رَبَّيْتَهُ، أَوْ تُبْعِدَ [تُبَعِّدَ] مَنْ أَدْنَيْتَهُ، أَوْ تُشَرِّدَ مَنْ اٰوَيْتَهُ، أَوْ تُسَلِّمَ إِلَى الْبَلآٰءِ مَنْ كَفَيْتَهُ وَرَحِمْتَهُ،Far be it from You! You art more generous than that You shouldst squander him whom You hast nurtured, Or banish him whom You hast brought nigh, Or drive away him whom You hast given an abode Or submit to tribulation him whom You hast spared and shown mercy.وَلَيْتَ شِعْرٖى ياٰ سَيِّدٖى وَ إِلٰهٖى وَمَوْلاٰىَ، أَتُسَلِّطُ النّاٰرَ عَلٰى وُجُوهٍ خَرَّتْ لِعَظَمَتِكَ ساٰجِدَةً، وَعَلٰى أَلْسُنٍ نَطَقَتْ بِتَوْحٖيدِكَ صاٰدِقَةً، وَبِشُكْرِكَ ماٰدِحَةً،Would that I knew, my Master, My God and my Protector, Whether You wilt give the Fire dominion over faces fallen down prostrate before Your Tremendousness, And over tongues voicing sincerely the profession of Your Unity and giving thanks to You in praise,وَعَلٰى قُلُوبٍࣙ اعْتَرَفَتْ بِإِلٰهٖيَّتِكَ مُحَقِّقَةً؛ وَعَلٰى ضَمآٰئِرَ حَوَتْ مِنَ الْعِلْمِ بِكَ حَتّٰى صاٰرَتْ خاٰشِعَةً، وَعَلٰى جَواٰرِحَ سَعَتْ إِلٰى أَوْطاٰنِ تَعَبُّدِكَ طآٰئِعَةً، وَ أَشاٰرَتْ بِاسْتِغْفارِكَ مُذْعِنَةً،And over hearts acknowledging Your Divinity through verification, And over minds encompassing knowledge of You until they have become humble And over bodily members speeding to the places of Your worship in obedience and beckoning for Your forgiveness in submission.ماٰ هَكَذَا الظَّنُّ بِكَ، وَلاٰ أُخْبِرْناٰ بِفَضْلِكَ عَنْكَ ياٰ كَرٖيمُ، ياٰ رَبِّNo such opinion is held of You! Nor has such been reported - thanks to Your bounty — concerning You, O All-generous! My Lord,وَأَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ ضَعْفٖى عَنْ قَلٖيلٍ مِنْ بَلآٰءِ الدُّنْياٰ وَعُقُوباٰتِهاٰ، وَماٰ يَجْرٖى فٖيهاٰ مِنَ الْمَكَارِهِ عَلٰى أَهْلِهاٰ،And You knowest my weakness before a little of this world's tribulations and punishments, And before those ordeals which befall its inhabitants,عَلٰى أَنَّ ذٰلِكَ بَلآٰءٌ وَمَكْرُوهٌ قَلٖيلٌ مَكْثُهُ، يَسٖيرٌ بَقآٰؤُهُ، قَصٖيرٌ مُدَّتُهُ؛Even though it is a tribulation and ordeal whose stay is short, whose subsistence is but little and, whose period is but fleeting.فَكَيْفَ احْتِماٰلٖى لِبَلآٰءِ الْاٰخِرَةِ وَجَلٖيلِ وُقُوعِ الْمَكَارِهِ فٖيهاٰSo how can I endure the tribulations of the next world and the great ordeals that occur within it?وَهُوَ بَلآٰءٌ تَطُولُ مُدَّتُهُ، وَيَدُومُ مَقاٰمُهُ، وَلاٰ يُخَفَّفُ عَنْ أَهْلِهِ، لِأَنَّهُ لاٰيَكُونُ إِلّاٰ عَنْ غَضَبِكَ وَانْتِقاٰمِكَ وَسَخَطِكَ،For it is a tribulation whose period is long, whose station endures and whose sufferers are given no respite, Since it only occurs as a result of Your wrath, Your vengeance and Your anger,وَهٰذاٰ ماٰ لاٰتَقُومُ لَهُ السَّماٰواٰتُ وَالْأَرْضُ، ياٰ سَيِّدٖى فَكَيْفَ لٖى وَأَنَا عَبْدُكَ الضَّعٖيفُ الذَّلٖيلُ الْحَقٖيرُ الْمِسْكٖينُ الْمُسْتَكٖينُ؛ And these cannot be withstood by the heavens and the earth. O Master, so what about me?! For I am Your weak, lowly, base, wretched and miserable slave.ياٰ إِلٰهٖى وَرَبّٖى وَسَيِّدٖى وَمَوْلاٰىَ، لِأَيِّ الْأُمُورِ إِلَيْكَ أَشْكُو، وَ لِماٰ مِنْهاٰ أَضِجُّ وَأَبْكٖى، لِأَلٖيمِ الْعَذاٰبِ وَشِدَّتِهِ، أَمْ لِطُولِ الْبَلآٰءِ وَمُدَّتِهِ.My God! My Lord! My Master! My Protector! For which things would I complain to You? And for which of them would I lament and weep? For the pain and severity of chastisement? Or for the length and period of tribulation?فَلَئِنْ صَيَّرْتَنٖى لِلْعُقُوباٰتِ مَعَ أَعْدآٰئِكَ، وَجَمَعْتَ بَيْنٖى وَبَيْنَ أَهْلِ بَلآٰئِكَ، وَفَرَّقْتَ بَيْنٖى وَبَيْنَ أَحِبّآٰئِكَ وَأَوْلٖيآٰئِكَ،So if You takest me to the punishments with Your enemies, And gatherest me with the people of Your tribulation And separatest me from Your friends and saints,فَهَبْنٖى ياٰ إِلٰهٖى وَسَيِّدٖى وَمَوْلاٰىَ وَرَبّٖى، صَبَرْتُ عَلٰى عَذاٰبِكَ، فَكَيْفَ أَصْبِرُ عَلٰى فِراٰقِكَ،Then suppose, My God, my Master, my Protector and my Lord that I am able to endure Your chastisement, How can I endure separation from You?وَهَبْنٖى صَبَرْتُ عَلٰى حَرِّ ناٰرِكَ، فَكَيْفَ أَصْبِرُ عَنِ النَّظَرِ إِلٰى كَراٰمَتِكَ أَمْ كَيْفَ أَسْكُنُ فٖى النّاٰرِ وَرَجآٰئٖى عَفْوُكَAnd suppose that I am able to endure the heat of Your fire, How can I endure not gazing upon Your generosity? Or how can I dwell in the Fire while my hope is Your pardon?فَبِعِزَّتِكَ ياٰ سَيِّدٖى وَمَوْلاٰىَ أُقْسِمُ صاٰدِقًا، لَئِنْ تَرَكْتَنٖى ناٰطِقًا لَأَضِجَّنَّ إِلَيْكَ بَيْنَ أَهْلِهاٰ ضَجٖيجَ الْاٰمِلٖينَ،So by Your might, my Master and my protector, I swear sincerely, if You leavest me with speech, I will lament to You from the midst of the Fire's inhabitants with lamentation of the hopeful;وَلَأَصْرُخَنَّ إِلَيْكَ صُراٰخَ الْمُسْتَصْرِخٖينَ، وَلَأَبْكِيَنَّ عَلَيْكَ بُكآٰءَ الْفَاقِدٖينَ،I will cry to You with the cry of those crying for help; I will weep to You with the weeping of the bereft;وَلَأُناٰدِيَنَّكَ أَيْنَ كُنْتَ ياٰ وَلِىَّ الْمُؤْمِنٖينَ، ياٰ غاٰيَةَ اٰماٰلِ الْعارِفٖينَ، ياٰ غٖياٰثَ الْمُسْتَغٖيثٖينَ، ياٰ حَبٖيبَ قُلُوبِ الصَّادِقٖينَ، وَياٰ إِلٰهَ الْعاٰلَمٖينَ؛And I will call to You, Where art You, O Sponsor of the believers, O Goal of the hopes of Your knowers, O Aid of those who seek assistance, O Friend of the hearts of the sincere And O God of all the world's inhabitants!أَفَتُراٰكَ سُبْحاٰنَكَ ياٰ إِلٰهٖى وَبِحَمْدِكَ تَسْمَعُ فٖيهاٰ صَوْتَ عَبْدٍ مُسْلِمٍ سُجِنَ فٖيهاٰ بِمُخاٰلَفَتِهِ، وَذاٰقَ طَعْمَ عَذاٰبِهاٰ بِمَعْصِيَتِهِ، وَحُبِسَ بَيْنَ أَطْباٰقِهاٰ بِجُرْمِهِ وَجَرٖيرَتِهِ،Canst You see Yourself — Glory be to You My God, and Thine is the praised — hearing within the Fire the voice of a slave surrendered to You, Imprisoned there because of his violations, Tasting the favour of its torment because of his disobedience, And confined within its levels because of his sin and crime,وَهُوَ يَضِجُّ إِلَيْكَ ضَجٖيجَ مُؤَمِّلٍ لِرَحْمَتِكَ، وَيُناٰدٖيكَ بِلِساٰنِ أَهْلِ تَوْحٖيدِكَ، وَيَتَوَسَّلُ إِلَيْكَ بِرُبُوبٖيَّتِكَWhile he laments to You with the lament of one hopeful for Your mercy, And calls to You with the tongue of those who profess Your Unity And entreats You by Your lordship!ياٰ مَوْلاٰىَ فَكَيْفَ يَبْقٰى فِى الْعَذابِ وَهُوَ يَرْجُو ماٰ سَلَفَ مِنْ حِلْمِكَMy Protector, so how should he remain in the chastisement, while he has hope for Your previous clemency?أَمْ كَيْفَ تُؤْلِمُهُ النّاٰرُ وَهُوَ يَأْمُلُ فَضْلَكَ وَرَحْمَتَكَ Or how should the Fire cause him pain while he expects Your bounty and mercy?أَمْ كَيْفَ يُحْرِقُهُ لَهٖيبُهاٰ وَأَنْتَ تَسْمَعُ صَوْتَهُ وَتَرٰى مَكاٰنَهُOr how should its flames burn him, while You hearest his voice and seest his place?أَمْ كَيْفَ يَشْتَمِلُ عَلَيْهِ زَفٖيرُهاٰ وَأَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ ضَعْفَهُOr how should its groaning encompass him, while You knowest his weakness?أَمْ كَيْفَ يَتَقَلْقَلُ[يَتَغَلْغَلُ] بَيْنَ أَطْباٰقِهاٰ وَأَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ صِدْقَهُOr how should he be convulsed among its levels, while You knowest his sincerity?أَمْ كَيْفَ تَزْجُرُهُ زَباٰنٖيَتُهاٰ وَهُوَ يُناٰدٖيكَ ياٰ رَبَّهُOr how should its keepers torture him while he calls out to You, O Lord?أَمْ كَيْفَ يَرْجُو فَضْلَكَ فٖى عِتْقِهِ مِنْهاٰ فَتَتْرُكُهُ فٖيهاٰ،Or how should he have hope of Your bounty in freeing him from it, while You abandonest him within it?هَيْهاٰتَ ماٰ ذٰلِكَ الظَّنُ بِكَ، وَلَا الْمَعْرُوفُ مِنْ فَضْلِكَ، وَلاٰ مُشْبِهٌ لِماٰ عاٰمَلْتَ بِهِ الْمُوَحِّدٖينَ مِنْ بِرِّكَ وَ إِحْساٰنِكَ؛Far be it from You! That is not what is expected of You, Nor what is well-known of Your bounty, Nor it is similar to the goodness and kindness You hast shown to those who profess Your Unity.فَبِالْيَقٖينِ أَقْطَعُ، لَوْلاٰ ماٰ حَكَمْتَ بِهِ مِنْ تَعْذٖيبِ جاٰحِدٖيكَ، وَقَضَيْتَ بِهِ مِنْ إِخْلاٰدِ مُعاٰنِدٖيكَ، لَجَعَلْتَ النّاٰرَ كُلَّهاٰ بَرْدًا وَسَلاٰمًا، وَماٰ كاٰنَ لِأَحَدٍ فٖيهاٰ مَقَرًّا وَلاٰ مُقاٰمًا،So I declare with certainty that were it not for what You hast decreed concerning the chastisement of Your deniers And what You hast foreordained concerning the everlasting home of those who stubbornly resist, You wouldst make the Fire, all of it, coolness and safety, And no one would have a place of rest or abode within it.لٰكِنَّكَ تَقَدَّسَتْ أَسْمآٰؤُكَ أَقْسَمْتَ أَنْ تَمْلَأَهاٰ مِنَ الْكاٰفِرٖينَ، مِنَ الْجِنَّةِ وَالنّاٰسِ أَجْمَعٖينَ، وَأَنْ تُخَلِّدَ فٖيهَا الْمُعانِدٖينَ،But You—holy are Your Names—hast sworn that You wilt fill it with the unbelievers, Both Jinn and men together, And that You wilt place those who stubbornly resist therein forever.وَأَنْتَ جَلَّ ثَنآٰؤُكَ قُلْتَ مُبْتَدِئًا، وَتَطَوَّلْتَ بِالْإِنْعاٰمِ مُتَكَرِّمًا، أَفَمَنْ كاٰنَ مُؤْمِنًا كَمَنْ كاٰنَ فاٰسِقًا لاٰ يَسْتَوُونَ؛And You— majestic is Your eulogy— said at the beginning and wernt gracious through kindness as a favour, (Is someone who is faithful like someone who is a transgressor? They are not equal.)إِلٰهٖى وَسَيِّدٖى، فَأَسْأَلُكَ بِالْقُدْرَةِ الَّتٖى قَدَّرْتَهاٰ، وَبِالْقَضِيَّةِ الَّتٖى حَتَمْتَهاٰ وَحَكَمْتَهاٰ، وَغَلَبْتَ مَنْ عَلَيْهِ أَجْرَيْتَهاٰ،My God and my Master! So I ask You by the power You hast apportioned And by the decision which You hast determined and imposed and through which You hast overcome him toward whom it has been put into effect,أَنْ تَهَبَ لٖى فٖى هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ وَفٖى هَذِهِ السّاٰعَةِ، كُلَّ جُرْمٍ أَجْرَمْتُهُ، وَكُلَّ ذَنْبٍ أَذْنَبْتُهُ، وَكُلَّ قَبٖيحٍ أَسْرَرْتُهُ، وَكُلَّ جَهْلٍ عَمِلْتُهُ، كَتَمْتُهُ أَوْ أَعْلَنْتُهُ، أَخْفَيْتُهُ أَوْ أَظْهَرْتُهُ،That You forgivest me in this night and at this hour Every offence I have committed, And every sin I have performed, And every ugly thing I have concealed And every folly I have enacted Whether I have hidden or announced it, Or I have concealed it or manifested itوَكُلَّ سَيِّئَةٍ أَمَرْتَ بِإِثْباٰتِهَا الْكِراٰمَ الْكاتِبٖينَ؛And every evil act which You hast commanded the Noble Writers to record,اَلَّذٖينَ وَكَّلْتَهُمْ بِحِفْظِ ماٰ يَكُونُ مِنّٖى، وَجَعَلْتَهُمْ شُهُودًا عَلَىَّ مَعَ جَواٰرِحٖى،Those whom You hast appointed to watch over what appears from me And whom You hast made, along with my bodily members, witness against me.وَكُنْتَ أَنْتَ الرَّقٖيبَ عَلَىَّ مِنْ وَرآٰئِهِمْ، وَالشّاٰهِدَ لِماٰ خَفِىَ عَنْهُمْ، وَبِرَحْمَتِكَ أَخْفَيْتَهُ، وَبِفَضْلِكَ سَتَرْتَهُ،And You wast Yourself the Watcher over me from behind them, And the Witness of what is hidden from them But through Your mercy You concealed it And through Your bounty You veiled it.وَأَنْ تُوَفِّرَ حَظّٖى، مِنْ كُلِّ خَيْرٍ أَنْزَلْتَهُ، أَوْ إِحْساٰنٍ فَضَّلْتَهُ، أَوْ بِرٍّ نَشَرْتَهُ، أَوْ رِزْقٍ بَسَطْتَهُ ، أَوْ ذَنْبٍ تَغْفِرُهُ، أَوْ خَطَأٍ تَسْتُرُهُ،[And I ask You] that You bestowest upon me an abundant share of every good You sendest down, Or kindness You conferrest, Or goodness You unfoldest, Or provision You spreadest out, Or sin You forgivest, Or error You coverest.ياٰ رَبِّ ياٰ رَبِّ ياٰ رَبِّ؛My Lord! My Lord! My Lord!ياٰ إِلٰهٖى وَسَيِّدٖى وَمَوْلاٰىَ وَماٰلِكَ رِقّٖى، ياٰ مَنْ بِيَدِهِ ناٰصٖيَتٖى، ياٰ عَلٖيمًا بِضُرّٖى وَمَسْكَنَتٖى، ياٰ خَبٖيرًا بِفَقْرٖى وَفاٰقَتٖى،My God! My Master! My Protector! Owner of my bondage! O He in whose hand is my forelock! O He who knows my affliction and my misery! O He who is aware of my poverty and indigence!ياٰ رَبِّ ياٰ رَبِّ ياٰ رَبِّ،My Lord! My Lord! My Lord!أَسْأَلُكَ بِحَقِّكَ وَقُدْسِكَ وَأَعْظَمِ صِفاٰتِكَ وَأَسْمآٰئِكَ، أَنْ تَجْعَلَ أَوْقاٰتٖى مِنَ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهاٰرِ بِذِكْرِكَ مَعْمُورَةً، وَبِخِدْمَتِكَ مَوْصُولَةً؛ وَأَعْماٰلٖى عِنْدَكَ مَقْبُولَةً،I ask You by Your Truth and Your Holiness And the greatest of Your Attributes and Names, That You makest my times in the night and the day inhabited by Your remembrance, And joined to Your service And my works acceptable to You,حَتّٰى تَكُونَ أَعْماٰلٖى وَأَوْراٰدٖى كُلُّهاٰ وِرْدًا وَاحِدًا، وَحاٰلٖى فٖى خِدْمَتِكَ سَرْمَدًا.So that my works and my litanies may all be a single litany And my occupation with Your service everlasting.ياٰ سَيِّدٖى ياٰ مَنْ عَلَيْهِ مُعَوَّلٖى، ياٰ مَنْ إِلَيْهِ شَكَوْتُ أَحْواٰلٖى،My Master! O He upon whom I depend! O He to whom I complain about my states!ياٰ رَبِّ ياٰ رَبِّ ياٰ رَبِّ،My Lord! My Lord! My Lord!قَوِّ عَلٰى خِدْمَتِكَ جَوارِحٖى، وَاشْدُدْ عَلَى الْعَزٖيمَةِ جَواٰنِحٖى، وَهَبْ لِىَ الْجِدَّ فٖى خَشْيَتِكَ، وَالدَّوامَ فِى الْاِتِّصاٰلِ بِخِدْمَتِكَ،Strengthen my bodily members in Your service, And fortify my ribs in determination And bestow upon me earnestness in my fear of You And continuity in my being joined to Your serviceحَتّٰى أَسْرَحَ إِلَيْكَ فٖى مَياٰدٖينِ السّاٰبِقٖينَ؛ وَأُسْرِعَ إِلَيْكَ فِى الباٰرِزٖينَ، وَأَشْتاٰقَ إِلٰى قُرْبِكَ فِى الْمُشْتاٰقٖينَ، وَأَدْنُوَ مِنْكَ دُنُوَّ الْمُخْلِصٖينَ، وَأَخاٰفَكَ مَخاٰفَةَ الْمُوقِنٖينَ، وَأَجْتَمِعَ فٖى جِواٰرِكَ مَعَ الْمُؤْمِنٖينَ.So that I may move easily toward You in the battlefields of the foremost And hurry to You among the prominent And desire fervently Your proximity among the fervently desirous And move nearer to You with the nearness of the sincere And fear You with the fear of those who have certitude And gather with the believers in Your vicinity. اَللّٰهُمَّ وَمَنْ أَراٰدَنٖى بِسُوٓءٍ فَأَرِدْهُ، وَمَنْ كاٰدَنٖى فَكِدْهُ،O Allah, whoever desires evil for me, desire [it] for him! whoever deceives me-deceive him!وَاجْعَلْنٖى مِنْ أَحْسَنِ عَبٖيدِكَ نَصٖيبًا عِنْدَكَ، وَأَقْرَبِهِمْ مَنْزِلَةً مِنْكَ، وَأَخَصِّهِمْ زُلْفَةً لَدَيْكَ، فَإِنَّهُ لاٰيُناٰلُ ذٰلِكَ إِلّاٰ بِفَضْلِكَ،And make me one of the most excellent of Your slaves in Portion from You, And the nearest of them in station to You And the most elected of them in proximity to You. For that cannot be attained except by Your bounty.وَجُدْ لٖى بِجُودِكَ، وَاعْطِفْ عَلَىَّ بِمَجْدِكَ؛ وَاحْفَظْنٖى بِرَحْمَتِكَ، وَاجْعَلْ لِساٰنٖى بِذِكْرِكَ لَهِجًا، وَقَلْبٖى بِحُبِّكَ مُتَيَّمًا،And grant generously to me through Your munificence, And incline toward me with Your splendour And protect me with Your mercy! And make my tongue remember You without ceasing And my heart enthralled by Your love!وَمُنَّ عَلَىَّ بِحُسْنِ إِجاٰبَتِكَ، وَأَقِلْنٖى عَثْرَتٖى، وَاغْفِرْ زَلَّتٖى،And be gracious to me by answering me favourably, And nullify my slips And forgive my lapses!فَإِنَّكَ قَضَيْتَ عَلٰى عِباٰدِكَ بِعِباٰدَتِكَ، وَأَمَرْتَهُمْ بِدُعآٰئِكَ، وَضَمِنْتَ لَهُمُ الْإِجاٰبَةَ،For You hast decreed Your worship for Your servants And commanded them to supplicate You And assured them that they would be answered.فَإِلَيْكَ ياٰرَبِّ نَصَبْتُ وَجْهٖى، وَ إِلَيْكَ ياٰ رَبِّ مَدَدْتُ يَدٖى،So toward You, my Lord, I have turned my face And toward You, my Lord, I have extended my hand.فَبِعِزَّتِكَ اسْتَجِبْ لٖى دُعآٰئٖى، وَبَلِّغْنٖى مُناٰىَ، وَلاٰ تَقْطَعْ مِنْ فَضْلِكَ رَجآٰئٖى، وَاكْفِنٖى شَرَّ الْجِنِّ وَالْإِنْسِ مِنْ أَعْدآٰئٖى؛So by Your might, comply with my supplication And make me attain my desires! Do not severe my hoping for Your Favours And spare me the evil of my enemies from among the jinn and men!ياٰ سَرٖيعَ الرِّضاٰ، اِغْفِرْ لِمَنْ لاٰيَمْلِكُ إِلَّا الدُّعآٰءَ، فَإِنَّكَ فَعّاٰلٌ لِماٰ تَشآٰءُ،O He, whose pleasure is quickly achieved! Forgive him who owns nothing but supplication For You dost what You wilt.ياٰ مَنِ اسْمُهُ دَوآٰءٌ، وَذِكْرُهُ شِفآٰءٌ، وَطاٰعَتُهُ غِنًى، اِرْحَمْ مَنْ رَأْسُ ماٰلِهِ الرَّجآٰءُ، وَسِلاٰحُهُ الْبُكآٰءُ،O He whose Name is a remedy, And whose remembrance is a cure, And whose obedience is wealth! Have mercy upon him whose capital is hope And whose weapon is tears!ياٰ ساٰبِغَ النِّعَمِ، يَا داٰفِعَ النِّقَمِ، ياٰ نُورَ الْمُسْتَوْحِشٖينَ فِى الظُّلَمِ، ياٰ عٰالِمًا لاٰيُعَلَّمُ،O Ample in blessings! O Repeller of adversities! O Light of those who are lonely in the darkness! O Knower who was never taught!صَلِّ عَلٰى مُحَمَّدٍ وَاٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَافْعَلْ بٖى ماٰ أَنْتَ أَهْلُهُ، وَصَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى رَسُولِهِ وَالْأَئِمَّةِ الْمَياٰمٖينَ مِنْ اٰلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَسْلٖيمًا كَثٖيرًا.Bless Muhammad and Muhammad's household! And do with me what is worthy of You! And Allah bless His messenger and the holy Imams of his household And give them abundant peace!
