Transliteration

Allahumma man ta'abbaa wa tahayyaa Wa a'adda was-ta'adda Li-wifaadatin ila makhluuqin Rajaa'a rifdihi Wa talaba naa'ilihi wa jaa'izatihi Fa-ilayka ya rabbi ta'biyatii was-ti'daadii Rajaa'a 'afwika Wa talaba naa'ilika wa jaa'izatika Falaa tukhayyib du'aa'ii Ya man laa yakhiibu 'alayhi saa'il Wa laa yanqusuhu naa'il Fa-innii lam aatika thiqatan bi'amalin saalihun 'amiltuhu

Translation

O Allah, One may call up, prepare, ready oneself, and stand prepared for purpose of coming to a creature in the hope of gaining his aid and asking for his gift and present. As for myself, to You—O my Lord—I make my preparations and readiness hoping for Your pardon and asking for Your gift and present. So, (please) do not disappoint my entreaty. O He Who never disappoints His beseechers and Whose prizes never decrease His ample-giving! I have not come to You with confidence of a righteous deed that I have done

Wa laa li-wifaadati makhluuqin rajawtuhu Aataytuka muqirran 'ala nafsii bil-isaa'ati waz-zulmi Mu'tarifan bi-an laa hujjata lii wa laa 'udhra Aataytuka arjuu 'aziima 'afwika Alladhii 'afawta bihi 'anil-khaati'iin Falam yamna'ka tuulu 'ukuufihim 'ala 'aziimil-jurmi An 'udta 'alayhim bir-rahmah Faya man rahmatuhu waasi'ah Wa 'afwuhu 'aziim Ya 'Aziimu ya 'Aziimu ya 'Aziimu Laa yaruddu ghadabaka illaa hilmuk Wa laa yunjii min sakhatika illat-tadarrru'u ilayk

Translation

nor have I had any hope in a grant of any creature. Rather, I have come to You professing myself to be evildoer and transgressor and confessing that I lack any pretext or excuse. I have come to You hoping for Your great pardon due to which You have pardoned the wrongdoers. Hence, their long-lasting retirement to their grave offenses has not prevented You from turning to them with mercy. O He Whose mercy is huge and Whose pardon is great; O All-great, O All-great, O All-great; nothing can repel Your rage except Your forbearance and nothing can save from Your wrath except imploring earnestly to You.

Fahab lii ya ilaahii farajan Bil-qudratillatii tuhyii bihaa maytal-bilaad Wa laa tuhliknii ghamman hattaa tastajiiba lii Wa tu'arrifanil-ijaabata fii du'aa'ii Wa adhiqnii ta'mal-'aafiyati ila muntaha ajalii Wa laa tushmit bii 'aduwwii Wa laa tusallithhu 'alayya Wa laa tumakkinhu min 'unuqii Allahumma in wada'tanii faman dhalladhii yarfa'unii Wa in rafa'tanii faman dhalladhii yada'unii Wa in ahlaktanii faman dhalladhii ya'ridu laka fii 'abdika Aw yas'aluka 'an amrihi

Translation

So, my God, (please) grant me a relief in the name of the power through which You restore to life the derelict lands, and do not cause me to perish out of grief until You respond to me and show me signs of Your response to my prayers. (please) Make me taste the flavor of wellbeing up to the end of my lifetime, do not make my enemies gloat over me, do not give them a hand over me, and do not make them control over me. O Allah, If You humiliate me, who can then exalt me? And if You exalt me, who can then humiliate me? If You annihilate me, who can then interfere before You concerning the affair of me—Your slave or who can intercede to ask You about it?

Translation

I have already known for sure that Your decrees are devoid of injustice and Your punishment does not count on immediateness. Verily, immediateness is the work of him who fears lest he may miss, and only do the weak need injustice. As for You, O my God, You are too exalted to be so—Exalted and Great You are beyond all measure! O Allah, I take refuge in You; so, (please) have protection upon me! I call for Your safekeeping; so, (please) keep me under Your security! I appeal for Your sustenance; so, (please) provide me with sustenance! I put trust in You; so, (please) keep me under Your supervision! I call for Your aid against my enemy; so, (please) grant me support! I seek Your assistance; so, (please) assist me! I ask for Your forgiveness; so, (please) forgive me.
