Translation

"Praise belongs to God, Lord of the worlds" (1:2)! O God, to You belongs praise! Originator of the heavens and the earth! Possessor of majesty and munificence! Lord of lords! Object of worship of every worshiper! Creator of every creature! Inheritor of all things! "There is nothing like Him" (42:11), knowledge of nothing escapes Him, He "encompasses everything" (41:54), and He is watchful over everything (33:52). You are God, there is no god but You, the Unique, the Alone, the Single, the Isolated. You are God, there is no god but You, the Generous, the Generously Bestowing, the All-mighty, the Mightily Exalted, the Magnificent, the Magnificently Magnified.

It is You with whom there is no opposite, lest it contend with You, who have no equal, lest it vie with You, who have no rival, lest it resist You. It is You who are He who began, devised,

You made him one of those whom You guided to Your religion, gave success in fulfilling Your right, preserved through Your cord, included within Your party, and directed aright to befriend Your friends and show enmity to Your enemies. Then You commanded him, but he did not follow Your commands, You restricted Him, but he did not heed Your restrictions, You prohibited him from disobedience toward You, but he broke Your command by doing what You had prohibited, not in contention with You, nor to display pride toward You; on the contrary, his caprice called him to that which You had set apart and cautioned against, and he was helped in that by Your enemy and his enemy. So he went ahead with it knowing Your threat, hoping for Your pardon,

Translation

and relying upon Your forbearance, though he was the most obligated of Your servants given Your kindness toward him - not to do so. Here I am, then, before You, despised, lowly, humble, abject, fearful, confessing the dreadful sins with which I am burdened and the great offenses that I have committed, seeking sanctuary in Your forgiveness, asking shelter in Your mercy, and certain that no sanctuary-giver will give me sanctuary from You and no withholder will hold me back from You. So act kindly toward me, just as You act kindly by Your shielding him who commits sins, be munificent toward me, just as You are munificent by pardoning him who throws himself before You, and show kindness to me, just as it is nothing great for You

to show kindness by forgiving him who expectantly hopes in You! Appoint for me in this day an allotment through which I may attain a share of Your good pleasure, and send me not back destitute of that with which Your worshipers return from among Your servants! Though I have not forwarded the righteous deeds which they have forwarded, I have forwarded the profession of Your Unity and the negation from You of opposites, rivals, and likenesses, I have come to You by the gateways by which You have commanded that people come, and I have sought nearness to You through that, without seeking nearness through which, none gains nearness to You. Then I followed all this with repeated turning toward You, lowliness and abasement before You, good opinion of You, and trust in what is with You; and to that I coupled hope in You,

since the one who hopes in You is seldom disappointed! I asked You with the asking of one vile, lowly, pitiful, poor, fearful, seeking sanctuary; all that in fear and pleading, seeking refuge and asking shelter, not presumptuous through the pride of the proud, nor exalting myself with the boldness of the obedient, nor presumptuous of the intercession of the interceders. For I am still the least of the least and the lowliest of the lowly, like a dust mote or less! O He who does not hurry the evildoers nor restrain those living in ease! O He who shows kindness through releasing the stumblers and gratuitous bounty through respiting the offenders! I am the evildoer, the confessor, the offender, the stumbler!
