I seek refuge with the perfect words of Allah from the influence of which neither the pious nor the vicious can escape, from the evil of every thing that grows in the earth or comes out of it, or descends down from the Heavens, or ascends towards it, and from the evil of the misfortune of the day and night (i.e. vicissitude of fortune), and from every mishap save the mishap behind which is hidden good luck.
O the Beneficent! O the Most Merciful! O Allah! I aspire to have such a faith after which there should be no turning to faithlessness, and aspire to have an ever-lasting bounty and companionship of the Prophet Mohammed and of his virtuous and purified Progeny in the eternal garden of Paradise with the Prophets, the truthfuls, the martyrs and the virtuous ones and excellent are these as companion.
O Allah! Give me peace in exchange of fears and put a veil against my defects and overlook my lapses, for You are Allah, there is no God save You - You are One and there is no associate with You, for You is the absolute kingdom and for You is all praise. And You are over everything Powerful.
O Allah! I entreat You for You are entreated, you are the praised, believed as One, Adorable, the great Benefactor with eternal good, Innovator of the Heavens and the Earth, Glorious and Gracious, to forgive all my sins minor, major committed intentionally or in unawareness and those which I have forgotten personally, but You have preserved them. Verily You are Merciful and turn towards Your bondsmen mercifully.
O Allah! O the Innovator of the Heavens and the Earth! O the Glorious and the Gracious! O the Succourer of those who seek Your help!
O the Redresser of grievances and the centre for those who love to be inclined towards You. You are the Dispeller of the Agony of those in distress. You are the Bestower of pleasure to the sad. You are the Answerer to the call of those in distress. You are devotedly worshipped by the Worlds!
You are the Most Merciful. You are Dispeller of every affliction and the destination for achievement of the desires. Bless Mohammed and his Progeny and treat me in the way that befits Your honour. There is no deity save You my Lord. You are my Master and I am Your slave, so of Your slave and so of Your maid. My destiny is within Your control.
I have been unjust to myself and I confess my sins and misdeeds. I beseech You for it is Your right to bestow favours, O the Great Benefactor! O the Innovator of the Heavens and he Earth!
O the Glorious and the Gracious! Bestow upon Mohammed Your Bondsman and messenger and on his Progeny, the best of Your blessings never bestowed on any one of Your Creation. I beseech You in the name of Your Power, whereby You split the sea for the children of Israel, to protect me from every rebel, envious person, the enemy and opponent.
And I beseech You with the name of Yours with which You shook the mountain over as if it were a covering, and people thought that it was going to fall down upon them, to protect me against what I fear.
O Allah! With Your help I avert my fear for them. And I seek refuge with You from their evil and seek Your protection against them. I seek help from You against them. O Allah! Allah is my Lord - I associate none with Him nor do I accept any one as my Master.
O Allah! Send Your Blessings on Mohammed and his Progeny. Ameen.
