رَبَّنَا آمَنَّا فَاغْفِرْ لَنا ذُنُوبَنا وَ كَفِّرْ عَنَّا سَيِّئاتِنا وَ تَوَفَّنا مَعَ الْأَبْرارِ
“Our Lord! We have heard the call of one calling (Us) to Faith, „Believe ye in the Lord,‟ and we have believed. Our Lord! Forgive us our sins, blot out from us our iniquities, and take to Yourself our souls in the company of the righteous.

رَبَّنا وَ آتِنا ما وَعَدْتَنا عَلى‌ رُسُلِكَ وَ لا تُخْزِنا يَوْمَ الْقِيامَةِ إِنَّكَ لا تُخْلِفُ الْمِيعادَ
Our Lord! Grant us what You didst promise unto us through Your apostles, and save us from shame on the Day of Judgment: For You never breakest Your promise.‟1 „

رَبَّنا أَمَتَّنَا اثْنَتَيْنِ وَ أَحْيَيْتَنَا اثْنَتَيْنِ فَاعْتَرَفْنا بِذُنُوبِنا فَهَلْ إِلى‌ خُرُوجٍ مِنْ سَبِيلٍ‌
Our Lord! Twice hast Thou made us without life, and twice hast Thou given us Life! Now have we established our sins: Is there any way out (of this)?‟2 „

رَبَّنَا اصْرِفْ عَنَّا عَذابَ جَهَنَّمَ إِنَّ عَذابَها كانَ غَراماً رَبَّنا هَبْ لَنا مِنْ أَزْواجِنا وَ ذُرِّيَّاتِنا قُرَّةَ أَعْيُنٍ وَ اجْعَلْنا لِلْمُتَّقِينَ إِماماً
Our Lord! Avert from us the Wrath of Hell, for its Wrath is indeed an affliction grievous.‟3 „Our Lord! Grant unto us wives and offspring who will be the comfort of our eyes, and give us (the grace) to lead the righteous.‟4

رَبَّنا عَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْنا وَ إِلَيْكَ أَنَبْنا وَ إِلَيْكَ الْمَصِيرُ
„…Our Lord! In You do we trust, and to You do we turn in repentance: to You is (our) Final Goal. Our Lord! Make us not a (test and) trial for the Unbelievers, but forgive us, our Lord! For You are the Exalted in Might, the Wise….‟5

رَبَّنا لا تَجْعَلْنا فِتْنَةً لِلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا رَبَّنَا اغْفِرْ لَنا ذُنُوبَنَا وَ لِإِخْوانِنَا الَّذِينَ سَبَقُونا بِالْإِيمانِ وَ لا تَجْعَلْ فِي قُلُوبِنا غِلًّا لِلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا
„Our Lord! Forgive us, and our brethren who came before us into the Faith, and leave not, in our hearts, rancour (or sense of injury) against those who have believed.

رَبَّنا إِنَّكَ رَؤُفٌ رَحِيمٌ‌ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ
Our Lord! You are indeed Full of Kindness, Most Merciful.‟ ”

وَ اسْتُرْ عَلَيَّ ذُنُوبِي وَ عُيُوبِي وَ اغْفِرْ لِي بِحَقِّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدِ إِنَّكَ الرَّءُوفُ الرَّحِيمُ
Conceal our sins and defects and forgive us for the sake Muhammad and his progeny (saws) surely you are most gracious and merciful




Dua'a for 27th Ramadhan until end of Ramadan-Imam Zain ul Abideen(as)
It has been narrated that Imam `Ali ibn al-Husayn Zayn al-`Abidin (`a) used to repeat the following prayer throughout this night. The dua seeks 'Tajafi' a state of readiness to leave this material world (eg. as in the congregation prayer when u have joined in 2nd rakat & while in tashahud & are ready to rise up). In this position only the very necessary parts of the body touch the ground ,indicating minimum attachment to the world. Tajafi Image | Exposition

اللَّهُمَّ ٱرْزُقْنِي ٱلتَّجَافِيَ عَنْ دَارِ ٱلْغُرُورِ
allahumma urzuqni alttajafiya `an dari alghururi
O Allah, (please) present me alienation from the abode of delusion,

وَٱلإِنَابَةَ إِلَىٰ دَارِ ٱلْخُلُودِ
wal-inabata ila dari alkhuludi
turning to the abode of eternity,

وَٱلاِسْتِعدَادَ لِلْمَوْتِ قَبْلَ حُلُولِ ٱلْفَوتِ
walisti`dada lilmawti qabla hululi alfawti
and readiness for death before it is too late.

Alternate Translation : O' Allah please bestow upon me the divine grace so that I become disgusted with this world - the House of deception - and become attracted towards the Hereafter - the House of Eternity - and before the arrival of my death, should make myself readied for the journey towards the Next world.”



Second Dua 27th Night-Companions Sayyed Ibn Tawus-Iqbal Amaal

الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي خَلَقَ بَدَائِعَهُ بِقُدْرَتِهِ وَ مَلَكَ الْأُمُورَ بِعِزَّتِهِ وَ عَدَلَ فَلَا يَجُورُ وَ أَنْصَفَ فَلَا يَحِيفُ
“Praise be to God, Who created His New Phenomenon by His Power, Ruled the affairs with His Might, Did Justice without oppression, was Fair and did not incline away from fairness.

وَ كَيْفَ يَجُورُ وَ يَحِيفُ عَلَى مَنْ سَمَّاهُ بِالضَّعْفِ وَ قَرَعَهُ بِالْفَقْرِ وَ نَبَّهَهُ عَلَى الْغِنَاءِ الْأَكْبَرِ مِنْ رِضْوَانِهِ وَ دَعَاهُ إِلَى الْحَظِّ الْأَوْفَرِ مِنْ غُفْرَانِهِ وَ أَشْرَعَ لَهُ إِلَى ذَلِكَ السَّبِيلَ وَ أَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَلِجَهَا بِصَالِحِ الْعَمَلِ
How could He oppress or be unfair to one whom He has called weak and poor, and has made him aware of his greatest need being His Pleasure, and has invited to enjoy the most from His Forgiveness, has paved the way to walk on this Path and has ordered us to do so with good deeds?

لَمْ يُتَّهَمْ بِالشَّقْوَةِ مَنْ أَمَرَ بِالرَّحْمَةِ وَ بِالْجَوْرِ عَلَى الْعَبِيدِ بَلْ أَوْجَبَ الْعِقَابَ عَلَى فَاسِقِهِمْ وَ الثَّوَابَ لِمَنْ نَهَاهُمْ
No. He cannot be accused of tyranny since He has ordered to have mercy, promised the servants punishment for oppression, chastisement for committing sins and reward for those who admonish against it.

مَنْ هُوَ أَشْفَقُ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ أُمِّ الْفُرُوخِ عَلَى فَرْخِهَا تَعَالَى اللَّهُ عَمَّا يَقُولُ الظَّالِمُونَ عُلُوّاً كَبِيراً
He is even kinder to them than a bird is to its newborns! God is Sublime and indeed He is exalted above what the evil-doers say! „Exalted and Great (beyond measure)!‟1

سُبْحَانَ مَنْ صَوَّمَنِي عَنِ الطَّعَامِ وَ الشَّرَابِ وَ مَنْ فَرَقُهُ بِمَا يُوَرِّطُنِي فِي أَلِيمِ الْعَذَابِ فيخلصني [يُخَلِّصُنِي‌] مِنَ الْعِقَابِ بِصِيَامٍ واجب [أَوْجَبَ‌] لِيَ الثَّوَابَ بِصِيَامٍ لَهُ
Glory be to Him who made me fast by abstaining from food and drinks so that He may save me from the march of painful torture and released me from Chastisement with the reward He granted me for the obligatory fast.

الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ عَلَى أَنْ هَدَانِي وَ عَافَانِي وَ كَفَانِي كَمَا يَسْتَحِقُّ الْجَوَادُ الْكَرِيمُ
Praise be to God who guided me, gave me well-being and took care of me as it best fits the Generous – the Benevolent.

يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ [وَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ‌] صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلَى أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ الطَّيِّبِينَ الطَّاهِرِينَ وَ سَلِّمْ تَسْلِيماً كَثِيراً.
O‟ the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful. Please bestow Your Blessings on Muhammad and his Progeny (MGB) – the Immaculate, the pure ones and may His peace be on them plentifully.”
