| In the Name of Allah, the All-beneficent, the All-merciful.
|
بِسْمِ اللَّـهِ الرَّحْمَـٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
|
| My God, You have settled us in an abode which has dug for us pits of deception,
|
إِلـٰهِي أَسْكَنْتَنا داراً حَفَرَتْ لَنا حُفَرَ مَكْرِها
|
| and You have fastened us by the hands of death in the snares of that abode's treachery!
|
وَعَلَّقَتْنا بِأَيْدِي الْمَنايا فِي حَبائِلِ غَدْرِها،
|
| In You we seek asylum from the tricks of its guile,
|
فَإِلَيْكَ نَلْتَجِئُ مِنْ مَكائِدِ خُدَعِها،
|
| and to You we hold fast, lest we be deluded by the glitter of its ornaments!
|
وَبِكَ نَعْتَصِمُ مِنَ الاغْتِرارِ بِزَخارِفِ زِيْنَتِهَا
|
| It destroys its pursuers
|
فَإِنَّهَا الْمُهْلِكَةُ طُلاَّبَهَا،
|
| and ruins its settlers,
|
الْمُتْلِفَةُ حُلاَّلَهَا،
|
| it is stuffed with blights
|
الْمَحْشُوَّةُ بِالآفاتِ،
|
| and loaded with calamities.
|
الْمَشْحُونَةُ بِالنَّكَباتِ
|
| My God, induce us to renounce it
|
إِلـٰهِي فَزَهّـِدْنا فِيها،
|
| and keep us safe from it by Your giving success and Your preservation from sin.
|
وَسَلّـِمْنا مِنْها بِتَوْفِيقِكَ وَعِصْمَتِكَ،
|
| Strip from us the robes of opposing You,
|
وَانْزَعْ عَنَّا جَلابِيبَ مُخالَفَتِكَ،
|
| attend to our affairs through Your good sufficiency,
|
وَتَوَلَّ أُمُورَنا بِحُسْنِ كِفايَتِكَ،
|
| amplify our increase from the boundless plenty of Your mercy
|
وَأَوْفِرْ مَزِيدَنا مِنْ سَعَةِ رَحْمَتِكَ،
|
| be liberal in our gifts from the overflow of Your grants,
|
وَأَجْمِلْ صِلاتِنا مِنْ فَيْضِ مَواهِبِكَ،
|
| plant in our hearts the trees of Your love,
|
وَأَغْرِسْ فِي أَفْئِدَتِنا أَشْجارَ مَحَبَّتِكَ،
|
| complete for us the lights of Your knowledge,
|
وَأَتْمِمْ لَنا أَنْوارَ مَعْرِفَتِكَ،
|
| give us to taste the sweetness of Your pardon
|
وَأَذِقْنا حَلاوَةَ عَفْوِكَ،
|
| and the pleasure of Your forgiveness,
|
وَلَذَّةَ مَغْفِرَتِكَ،
|
| gladden our eyes on the day of meeting You with the vision of You,
|
وَأَقْرِرْ أَعْيُنَنا يَوْمَ لِقائِكَ بِرُؤْيَتِكَ،
|
| dislodge the love of this world from our spirits,
|
وَأَخْرِجْ حُبَّ الدُّنْيا مِنْ قُلُوبِنا
|
| just as You have done for the righteous, Your selected friends,
|
كَما فَعَلْتَ بِالصَّالِحِينَ مِنْ صَفْوَتِكَ،
|
| and for the pious, those whom You have singled out!
|
وَالأَبْرارِ مِنْ خاصَّتِكَ
|
| Through Your mercy, O Most Merciful of the merciful,
|
بِرَحْمَتِكَ يا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ،
|
| O Most Generous of the most generous!
|
وَيا أَكْرَمَ الأَكْرَمِينَ.
