3.Book of companions- Iqbal Aamal - 23rd
اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كَانَ الشَّكَّ فِي أَنَّ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ فِيهَا أَوْ فِيمَا تَقَدَّمَهَا وَاقِعٌ فَإِنَّهُ فِيكَ وَ فِي وَحْدَانِيَّتِكَ وَ تَزْكِيَتِكَ الْأَعْمَالَ
“O‟ my God! Even though there is some doubt about whether this night or the previous one is the Night of Destiny, there is no doubt about Your being one and only and that You purify the deeds.
زَائِلٌ وَ فِي أَيِّ اللَّيَالِي تَقَرَّبَ مِنْكَ الْعَبْدُ
You would not push away Your servant on any night that he seeks closeness to You, and You accept him.
لَمْ تُبْعِدْهُ وَ قَبِلْتَهُ وَ أَخْلَصَ فِي سُؤَالِكَ لَمْ تَرُدَّهُ وَ أَجَبْتَهُ وَ عَمِلَ الصَّالِحَاتِ شَكَرْتَهُ وَ رَفَعَ إِلَيْكَ مَا يُرْضِيكَ ذَخَرْتَهُ
You do not reject him if he is sincere in what he asks and You would fulfill his request.
You thank him if he does good deeds. And You would save any deeds he sends up that please You.
اللَّهُمَّ فَأَمِدَّنِي فِيهَا بِالْعَوْنِ عَلَى مَا يُزْلِفُ لَدَيْكَ
O‟ my God! Please give me assistance regarding what would bring me closer to You.
فِيهِ الْقُرْبَى إِلَيْكَ وَ أَسْبِغْ مِنَ الْعَمَلِ فِي الدَّارَيْنِ سَعْيِي
Please grab me and lead me towards what would bring me closer to You. And increase my efforts for both worlds.
وَ رَقِّ لِي مِنْ جُودِكَ بِخَيْرَاتِهَا عَطِيَّتِي وَ أَبْتِرْ عَيْلَتِي مِنْ ذُنُوبِي بِالتَّوْبَةِ
And make the goods You grant me in this month better for me. And cut me off from my sins by means of repentance.
وَ مِنْ خَطَايَايَ بِسَعَةِ الرَّحْمَةِ وَ اغْفِرْ لِي فِي هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ وَ لِوَالِدَيَّ وَ لِجَمِيعِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ غُفْرَانَ مُتَنَزِّهٍ عَنْ عُقُوبَةِ الضُّعَفَاءِ رَحِيمٍ بِذَوِي الْفَاقَةِ وَ الْفُقَرَاءِ جَادٍ عَلَى عَبِيدِهِ شَفِيقٍ بِخُضُوعِهِمْ وَ ذِلَّتِهِمْ
And cut me off from my mistakes by Your Extensive Mercy. And please forgive me, my parents, all the believing men and women on this night. Forgiveness of one who is free from the punishment of the weak, Merciful to the ones in privation and poverty- Forgiving to his servants- Most kind to their humbleness and debasement.
رَفِيقٍ لَا تَنْقُصُهُ الصَّدَقَةُ عَلَيْهِمْ وَ لَا يُفْقِرُهُ مَا يُغْنِيهِمْ مِنْ صَنِيعِهِ
Friend whose bounties do not diminish by bestowing on them, and whose wealthiness is not affected by His making them wealthy.
اللَّهُمَّ اقْضِ دَيْنِي وَ دَيْنَ كُلِّ مَدْيُونٍ
O‟ my God! Please pay back all my debts and that of all who are in debt.
وَ فَرِّجْ عَنِّي وَ عَنْ كُلِّ مَكْرُوبٍ وَ أَصْلِحْنِي وَ أَهْلِي وَ وُلْدِي
Please relieve my grief and that of all who are grief-stricken, improve my affairs as well as the affairs of my wife and children.
وَ أَصْلِحْ كُلَّ فَاسِدٍ وَ انْفَعْ مِنِّي وَ اجْعَلْ فِي الْحَلَالِ الطِّيبِ الْهَنِي‌ءِ الْكَثِيرِ السَّابِغِ مِنْ رِزْقِكَ عَيْشِي وَ مِنْهُ لِبَاسِي وَ فِيهِ مُنْقَلَبِي
And improve all mixed up affairs to benefit me. Also grant me legitimate, pure and delicious sustenance, clothes, and provisions for my afterlife.
وَ اقْبِضْ عَنِ الْمَحَارِمِ يَدِي مِنْ غَيْرِ قَطْعٍ وَ لَا شَلٍّ وَ لِسَانِي مِنْ غَيْرِ خَرَسٍ وَ أُذُنِي مِنْ غَيْرِ صَمَمٍ وَ عَيْنِي مِنْ غَيْرِ عَمًى وَ رِجْلِي مِنْ غَيْرِ زَمَانَةٍ وَ فَرْجِي مِنْ غَيْرِ إِحْمَالٍ وَ بَطْنِي مِنْ غَيْرِ وَجَعٍ وَ سَائِرِ أَعْضَائِي مِنْ غَيْرِ خَلَلٍ
Cut my hands off of forbidden things without cutting them or making them crippled, or making me dumb, or making me deaf, or making me blind, or making me crippled, or making me impotent, or given me a stomach-ache, or making my other organs defective.

Please let me enter to see You on the Day I shall stand in front of You while I am free of sins, free of faults, not ashamed of You, for having denied Your Blessings, having never confessed to anyone being a partner with You in Your Power, not having started any sedition, having never fallen into any ditch of unduly shed blood, not having placed anyone‟s yoke on my neck whom You have honored somehow, not having stood under any deceitful flags, and not having turned colors due to false oaths and betrayal of pledges.
وَ أَنِلْنِي مِنْ تَوْفِيقِكَ وَ هُدَاكَ مَا نَسْلُكُ بِهِ سُبُلَ طَاعَتِكَ وَ رِضَاكَ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ.
Please give me enough of Your success and guidance to be able to follow the path of Your Obedience and pleasure, O‟ the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful.”

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ يَا مَنْ جَعَلَ اللَّيْلَ لِباساً
O Allah, I ask You, O You who made the night a garment,
وَ النَّوْمَ سُباتاً وَ جَعَلَ النَّهارَ نُشُوراً
sleep a means of rest, and the day a time of resurrection,
يَا مَنْ أَرْسَلَ الرِّياحَ بُشْراً بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَحْمَتِهِ
O You who sent the winds as heralds of Your mercy,
وَ أَنْزَلَ مِنَ السَّماءِ ماءً طَهُوراً
and sent down from the sky pure water,
يَا مَنْ جَعَلَ فِي السَّماءِ بُرُوجاً
O You who placed fortresses in the sky
وَ جَعَلَ فِيها سِراجاً وَ قَمَراً مُنِيراً
and made therein a lamp and a shining moon,
يَا مَنْ مَرَجَ الْبَحْرَيْنِ ...
O You who let the two seas flow,
وَ جَعَلَ بَيْنَهُما بَرْزَخاً
setting between them a barrier
وَ حِجْراً مَحْجُوراً
and an impassable boundary,
يَا مَنْ جَعَلَ اللَّيْلَ وَ النَّهارَ خِلْفَةً
O You who made the night and the day as a succession
لِمَنْ أَرادَ أَنْ يَذَّكَّرَ أَوْ أَرادَ شُكُوراً
for those who desire to remember or wish to be thankful,
يَا مَنْ أَوْحَى إِلى مُوسى أَنِ اضْرِبْ بِعَصاكَ الْبَحْرَ
O You who inspired Moses to strike the sea with his staff,
فَانْفَلَقَ فَكانَ كُلُّ فِرْقٍ كَالطَّوْدِ الْعَظِيمِ
splitting it so that each part was like a great towering mountain,
يَا مَنْ جَعَلَ الْأَرْضَ قَراراً وَ جَعَلَ خِلالَها أَنْهاراً
O You who made the earth a dwelling place, placed within it rivers,
وَ جَعَلَ لَها رَواسِيَ وَ جَعَلَ بَيْنَ الْبَحْرَيْنِ حاجِزاً
set firm mountains upon it, and made a barrier between the two seas,
يَا مَنْ يُجِيبُ الْمُضْطَرَّ إِذا دَعاهُ وَ يَكْشِفُ السُّوءَ
O You who respond to the distressed when they call upon You and relieve hardship,
أَسْأَلُكَ يَا اللَّهُ بِمَا نَاجَيْتُكَ بِهِ فِي يَوْمِي هَذَا
I ask You, O Allah, by what I have confided in You today,
أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ الطَّاهِرِينَ
to send blessings upon Muhammad and his pure family.
وَ اجْعَلْ لِي مِنْ أَمْرِي مَخْرَجاً
Make a way out for me from my difficulties,
وَ مِنْ أَمْرِي يُسْراً وَ مِنْ هَمِّي فَرَجاً
ease my affairs, relieve my worries,
وَ ارْزُقْنِي مِنْ حَيْثُ أَحْتَسِبُ وَ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا أَحْتَسِبُ
provide for me from where I expect and from where I do not,
فَإِنَّكَ تَأْتِي بِالْيُسْرِ بَعْدَ الْعُسْرِ
for indeed You bring ease after hardship,
وَ بِالرَّخَاءِ بَعْدَ الشِّدَّةِ وَ بِالْعَافِيَةِ بَعْدَ الْبَلَاءِ
comfort after distress, well-being after trial,
وَ بِالرَّحْمَةِ بَعْدَ الْقُنُوطِ وَ بِالْغِنَاءِ [بِالْغِنَى] بَعْدَ الْفَقْرِ
mercy after despair, prosperity after poverty.
وَ أَسْأَلُكَ يَا رَبِّ حُبَّكَ وَ حُبَّ مَنْ أَحَبَّكَ
And I ask You, O Lord, for Your love, the love of those who love You,
وَ أُحِبُّ عَمَلًا يُقَرِّبُ إِلَى حُبِّكَ
and to love the deed that brings me closer to Your love.
بِرَحْمَتِكَ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ
By Your mercy, O Most Merciful of the merciful,
إِنَّكَ عَلى كُلِّ شَيْ‌ءٍ قَدِيرٌ
indeed You are capable of all things,
وَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَى سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ الطَّاهِرِينَ.
and may Allah send blessings upon our master Muhammad and his pure family.
