In the name of Allah the All Merciful the All Compassionate
O True Safety! O True Protector! O possessor of Honour and great Heights! Pure and Chaste! Overpowering and powerful! Possessor of Power. O the one Who is called in different languages and words at the time of various needs. O the one whose one condition does not fear the other condition. You are the one whom the times cannot change, the place cannot cover You. Neither sleep nor laziness overtake You. Ease for me the transactions whose possibility I fear. Ease for me all those things which troubles me. You are Pure, there is no lord other than You. I confess I have done wrong, committed misdeeds committed injustice on my soul. Thus forgive me, as there is no one other than You who can forgive. And praise is for Allah lord of the Worlds and there is no power, but with Allah and peace of Allah be upon Mohammad (s.a.w.a.) and his progeny (a.s.) the pure and chaste.

In the name of Allah the All Merciful the All Compassionate
O Allah! I ask from You not from others. I bow to You and will never bow to other than You. O the one who gives respite to those who fear Him. O the refuge of the one who seeks refuge. You are the doer of goodness and the one to find a way through difficulties. You forgive our carelessness erase our sins, record our good deeds, raise our status. I ask from You all good wishes and success, such wishes other than which to seek from You is not proper. O Allah! O the Merciful! By Your Beautiful Names! Those great examples and the countless bounties and by those names which are near to You in greatness and dearer to You who in the ranks are nearer to You and honoured and whose intercession is closer to You, and very important in position, the most effective for acceptance and by Your name which is Protected, Glorious, Respected and Great, with which You are happy and satisfied, and one who calls You by these name is Your beloved. You accept his invocations and it is his right upon You that You do not refuse his invocations. And by all those names which are mentioned in taurat and Injeel, Zaboor and Quran. And by all those names which is specialized for You, which You have informed to one of Your creatures or none is aware of it and all those names, by which the holders of Your Throne and other Angels and those appointed from Your creation call upon You. By the right of those who call upon You, who bow down to You, who seek refuge from You, and those who complain to You. By the right of those who worship You whether on barren or fertile land, or on hills he calls You. Like whose need is quite severe and sins are manifold and has reached the door of death, strength has given way, who has no hopes on his deeds.
He is not able to find anyone to accept his efforts and to forgive his sins other than You. And he has come voluntarily. There is no intention to rebel due to Your obedience. O the Protector of all disabled I ask You as there is no Allah other than You. You are affectionate, the Great obliger, the Creator of the Heaven and the Earth. Possessor of Majesty and Mercy. Knower of the Unseen and Seen You are the Beneficent, the Merciful.
You are the Lord and I am a slave.
You are the king and I am Your subject. You are honoured and I am degraded. You are self-sufficient and I am dependent You are alive and I am dead You are everliving and I will perish. You are doer of good and I am sinful.
You are forgiving and I am a sinner. You are merciful and I am transgressor. You are the Creator and I am the weak. You are the Provider and I am the seeker. You are the satisfier and I am fearful. You are the sustainer and we are the sustained ones. To whom we complain and address our grievances. You are most deserving from among them. As You have pardoned many of the sinners.
How many of the transgressors have You overlooked. Now You pardon me, overlook my faults, have mercy on me. Protect me from the calamity which has befallen me.
Don't degrade me due to my errors. Help me, and my parents and my children. Have mercy on us. O Merciful of all the mercifuls and the possessor of respect and Honour have mercy on us.
