O Allah, the new year has begun. You are the eternal master. I ask You to make available to me its good and the benefits which are in it. I seek refuge with You from its evil and the disadvantages which are in it. I request You to let me procure the provisions I need and discharge the activities I take up in this year.

اَللَّهُمَّ هَذِهِ سَنَةٌ جَدِيْدَةٌ وَ اَنْتَ مَلِكٌ قَدِيْمٍ اَسْئَلُكَ خَيْرَهَا وَ خَيْرَ مَا فِيْهَا وَ اَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّهَا وَ شَرِّ مَا فِيْهَا وَ اسْتَكْفِيْكَ مَؤُنَتَهَا وَ شُغْلَهَا يَا ذَاالْجَلاَلِ وَ الاِكْرَامِ

O Allah, I take refuge with the light of Your holiness, greatness of Your purity, and abundance of Your glory, from every misfortune and every injury, and from the behavior of nights and days, jinn and human beings, save the way which leads to goodness, O Beneficent, O merciful.

O Allah, You are my help, so from You I seek help; Your are my refuge, so I seek refuge with You; You are my asylum so I seek Your protection. O He who subdues all the strong and the powerful, and bends the necks of all the tyrants, I take refuge with the majesty of Your pre-eminence from the disgrace Your affliction, from the withdrawal of Your protection, from the forgetfulness of Your remembrance and from shirking from giving thanks to You.

I am under Your protection day and night, in my sleep and rest, whether in home or in journey. Your remembrance is my daily routine, Your praise is my talk.

There is no god save You. Keeping me free from vice on account of Your name, making me revere the grace and beauty of Your honor, protect me from the disgrace You afflict, from Your calamitous chastisement, from the degradation of Your punishment, take me under Your protection and preservation, and give me good in abundance from Your mercy, O the most merciful.

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِنُورِ قُدْسِكَ وَ عَظَمَةِ طَهَارَتِكَ‏ وَ بَرَكَةِ جَلَالِكَ مِنْ كُلِّ آفَةٍ وَ عَاهَةٍ وَ مِنْ طَوَارِقِ اللَّيْلِ وَ النَّهَارِ إِلَّا طَارِقاً يَطْرُقُ بِخَيْرٍ

 اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ غِيَاثِي فَبِكَ أَسْتَغِيثُ وَ أَنْتَ مَلَاذِي فَبِكَ أَلُوذُ وَ أَنْتَ مُعَاذِي فَبِكَ أَعُوذُ يَا مَنْ ذَلَّتْ لَهُ رِقَابُ الْجَبَابِرَةِ وَ خَضَعَتْ لَهُ مَقَالِيدُ الْفَرَاعِنَةِ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ خِزْيِكَ وَ مِنْ كَشْفِ سَتْرِكَ وَ مِنْ نِسْيَانِ ذِكْرِكَ وَ الِانْصِرَافِ عَنْ شُكْرِكَ

 أَنَا فِي حِرْزِكَ فِي لَيْلِي وَ نَهَارِي وَ ظَعْنِي وَ أَسْفَارِي وَ نَوْمِي وَ قَرَارِي ذِكْرُكَ شِعَارِي وَ ثَنَاؤُكَ دِثَارِي

 لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ تَعْظِيماً لِوَجْهِكَ وَ تَكْرِيماً لِسُبُحَاتِ نُورِكَ وَ أَجِرْنِي مِنْ خِزْيِكَ وَ مِنْ كَشْفِ سِتْرِكَ وَ سُوءِ عِقَابِكَ وَ اضْرِبْ عَلَيَّ سُرَادِقَاتِ حِفْظِكَ وَ أَدْخِلْنِي فِي حِفْظِ عِنَايَتِكَ وَ عذني [عِدْنِي‏] بِخَيْرٍ مِنْكَ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ‏

Allah is my Lord My Lord is one. My Lord is ever living, self-subsisting. My Lord is He who gives life and makes dead. My Lord is single, almighty. Sufficient is my Lord.

O Allah, we take refuge with You from abuse, plague, epidemic, misfortune, accidental death, specified calamity, rejoicing of enemies, and from the anticipated evil. O our Lord, turn away the certain torment from us. Verily we are those who know for certain. Allah is sufficient for us. Most excellent is He who protects us, the most excellent Lord, and the most excellent helper. Allah is the best guardian; and He is the most merciful.
