PRAYERS OF THE FINAL PROPHET (SAAWW)
55 HIS DUA IN THE MORNING AND EVENING
98. In the Tafs¢r of ~Al¢ XE "~Al¢" ibn Ibr¡him: In his narration from H¡shim XE "Hāshim" ibn S¡lim from Ab¢ ~Abdill¡h XE "Ab¢ ~Abdill¡h" D, in the ¦ad¢th of Me’r¡j: The Noble Prophet XE "Holy Prophet" 9 said: “O All¡h XE "All¡h" ! You have granted excellence to Your Prophets so grant it to me.” So All¡h i said: “I give you two sentences from under My Throne:
لاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاَّ بِاللّٰهِ وَلاَ مَنْجَأَ مِنْكَ إِلاَّ إِلَيْكَ.
‘There is no power and no might but All¡h XE "All¡h" ‘ and ‘There is no security from You but with You’.”
He 9 said: “The angels taught me what to say in the morning and evening:
أَللّٰهُمَّ إِنَّ ظُلْمِي أَصْبَحَ مُسْتَجِيراً بِعَفْوِكَ، وَذَنْبِي أَصْبَحَ مُسْتَجِيراً بِمَغْفِرَتِكَ، وَذُلِّي أَصْبَحَ مُسْتَجِيراً بِعِزَّتِكَ، وَفَقْرِي أَصْبَحَ مُسْتَجِيراً بِغِنَاكَ، وَوَجْهِي الْبَالِي الْفَانِي أَصْـبَحَ مُسْتَجِيراً بِوَجْهِكَ الدَّائِمِ الْبَّاقِي الَّذِي لاَ يَفْنـى.
O All¡h XE "All¡h" ! My oppression has sought refuge in Your Forgiveness, and my sin has sought refuge in Your Pardon, my lowliness has sought refuge with Your Greatness, my poverty has sought refuge in Your Wealth, my transient existence has sought refuge in Your Everlasting Existence that never perishes.
... and I say this in the evening also.”[i]
