دُعَاؤُهُ إذا ذَكَرَ الْمَوْتِWhen he remembered Death
1
O God, Bless Muhammad and his Household,
أَللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّد وَآلِهِ،
1
2
spare us drawn out expectations and cut them short in us through sincerity of works,
وَاكْفِنَا طُـولَ الأمَـلِ، وَقَصِّرْهُ عَنَّا بِصِدْقِ الْعَمَلِ
2
3
that we may not hope expectantly for completing an hour after an hour,
حَتَّى لا نُؤَمِّلَ اسْتِتْمَامَ سَاعَةٍ بَعْدَ سَاعَةٍ
3
4
closing a day after a day,
وَلاَ اسْتِيفَاءَ يَوْمٍ بَعْدَ يَوْمٍ،
4
5
joining a breath to a breath,
وَلاَ اتِّصَالَ نَفَسٍ بِنَفَس،
5
6
or overtaking a step with a step!
وَلا لُحُـوقَ قَدَمٍ بِقَـدَم.
6
7
Keep us safe from the delusions of expectations, make us secure from their evils,
وَسَلِّمْنَا مِنْ غُرُورِهِ، وَآمَنَّا مِنْ شُـرُوْرِهِ،
7
8
set up death before us in display.
وَانْصِبِ المَوْتَ بَيْنَ أَيْدِينَا نَصْباً،
8
9
and let not our remembering of it come and go!
وَلاَ تَجْعَلْ ذِكْرَنَا لَهُ غِبّاً،
9
10
Appoint for us from among the righteous works
وَاجْعَلْ لَنَا مِنْ صَالِحِ الأعْمَـالِ
10
11
a work through which we will feel the homecoming to Thee as slow
عَمَلاً نَسْتَبْطِئُ مَعَهُ الْمَصِيرَ إلَيْكَ،
11
12
and crave a quick joining with Thee,
وَنحْـرِصُ لَهُ عَلَى وَشْكِ اللِّحَاقِ بِكَ
12
13
so that death may be our intimate abode with which we are intimate,
حَتَّى يَكُونَ الْمَوْتُ مَأنَسَنَا الَّذِي نَأنَسُ بِهِ،
13
14
our familiar place toward which we yearn, and our next of kin whose coming we love!
وَمَألَفَنَا الَّذِي نَشْتَاقُ إلَيْهِ، وَحَامَّتَنَا الَّتِي نُحِبُّ الدُّنُوَّ مِنْهَا
14
15
When Thou bringest it to us and sendest it down upon us,
فَإذَا أَوْرَدْتَهُ عَلَيْنَا، وَأَنْزَلْتَهُ بِنَا
15
16
make us happy with it as a visitor, comfort us with its arrival,
فَأسْعِدْنَا بِهِ زَائِراً، وَآنِسْنَا بِهِ قَادِماً،
16
17
make us not wretched through entertaining it, degrade us not through its visit,
وَلاَ تُشْقِنَا بِضِيافَتِهِ، وَلا تُخْزِنَا بِزِيارَتِهِ،
17
18
and appoint it one of the gates to Thy forgiveness
وَاجْعَلْهُ بَاباً مِنْ أَبْوَابِ مَغْفِرَتِكَ،
18
19
and the keys to Thy mercy!
وَمِفْتَاحاً مِنْ مَفَاتِيحِ رَحْمَتِكَ.
19
20
Make us die guided, not astray,
أَمِتْنَا مُهْتَدِينَ غَيْرَ ضَالِّينَ
20
21
obedient, not averse, repentant, not disobedient or persisting,
طائِعِينَ غَيْرَ مُسْتَكْرِهِينَ تَائِبينَ غَيْرَ عاصِينَ وَلا مُصِرِّينَ
21
22
O He who guarantees the repayment of the good-doers
يَا ضَامِنَ جَزَاءِ الْمُحْسِنِينَ،
22
23
and seeks to set right the work of the corrupt!
وَمُسْتَصْلِحَ عَمَلِ الْمُفْسِدِينَ.
23

 
O God,
Bless Muhammad and his Household,
spare us drawn out expectations
and cut them short in us through sincerity of works,
that we may not hope expectantly for
completing an hour after an hour,
closing a day after a day,
joining a breath to a breath,
or overtaking a step with a step!

Keep us safe from the delusions of expectations,
make us secure from their evils,
set up death before us in display.
and let not our remembering of it come and go!

Appoint for us from among the righteous works a work
through which we will feel the homecoming to Thee as slow
and crave a quick joining with Thee,
so that death may be
our intimate abode with which we are intimate,
our familiar place toward which we yearn,
and our next of kin whose coming we love!

When Thou bringest it to us
and sendest it down upon us,
make us happy with it as a visitor,
comfort us with its arrival,
make us not wretched through entertaining it,
degrade us not through its visit,
and appoint it one of the gates to Thy forgiveness
and the keys to Thy mercy!

Make us die
guided, not astray,
obedient, not averse,
repentant, not disobedient or persisting,
O He who guarantees the repayment of the good-doers
and seeks to set right the work of the corrupt!
