بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
In the Name of God, the All-merciful, the All-compassionate
. أَلْحَمْدُ لِلّهِ الَّذِي جَعَلَ اللَّيْلَ لِباساً،
Praise belongs to God, who appointed the night to be a garment,
وَالنَّوْمَ سُباتَاً،
and sleep for a rest,
وَجَعَلَ النَّهارَ نُشُوراً.
and day He appointed for a rising!
لَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْ بَعَثْتَنِي مِنْ مَرْقَدِي،
To Thee belongs praise, for Thou roused me from my sleep,
وَلَوْ شِئْتَ جَعَلْتَهُ سَرْمَداً
and hadst Thou willed, Thou wouldst have made it everlasting -
حَمْداً دَائِمَاً لا يَنْقَطِعُ أَبَداً،
an everlasting praise that will never be cut off
وَلا يُحْصِي لَهُ الْخَلائِقُ عَدَدَاً.
and whose number the creatures will never count!
أَللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ
O God, to Thee belongs praise,
أَنْ خَلَقْتَ فَسَوَّيْتَ،
for Thou created, then proportioned,
وَقَدَّرْتَ وَقَضَيْتَ،
ordained and decreed,
وَأَمَتَّ وَأَحْيَيْتَ،
gave death and bestowed life,
وَأَمْرَضْتَ وَشَفَيْتَ، وَعافَيْتَ وَأَبْلَيْتَ،
made sick and healed, made well and afflicted,
وَعَلَى الْعَرْشِ اسْتَوَيْتَ، وَعَلَى الْمُلْكِ احْتَوَيْتَ.
sat upon the Throne and encompassed the Kingdom!
أَدْعُوكَ دُعآءَ مَنْ ضَعُفَتْ وَسِيلَتُهُ،
I supplicate Thee with the supplication of one whose mediation is weak,
وَانْقَطَعَتْ حِيلَتُهُ، وَاقْتَرَبَ أَجَلُهُ،
whose stratagems have been cut off, whose term has drawn near,
وَتَدانى فِي الدُّنْيا أَمَلُهُ،
whose expectation from this world has shrunk,
وَاشْتَدَّتْ إلى رَحْمَتِكَ فاقَتُهُ،
whose neediness for Thy mercy has intensified,
وَعَظُمَتْ لِتَفْرِيطِهِ حَسْرَتُهُ،
whose remorse for his neglect has become great,
وَكَثُرَتْ زَلَّتُهُ وَعَثْرَتُهُ،
whose slips and stumbles have become many,
وَخَلُصَتْ لِوَجْهِكَ تَوْبَتُهُ.
and whose repentance is devoted sincerely to Thy face.
ـ فَصَلِّ عَلى مُحَمَّد خاتَمِ النَّبِيِّينَ،
So bless Muhammad, the Seal of the Prophets,
وَعَلى أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ الطَّيِّبِينَ الطَّاهِرِينَ،
and his Household, the good, the pure,
وَارْزُقْنِي شَفاعَةَ مُحَمَّد صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ،
provide me with the intercession of Muhammad (God bless him and his Household)
وَلا تَحْرِمْنِي صُحْبَتَهُ
and deprive me not of his companionship!
إنَّكَ أَنْتَ أَرْحَمُ الرَّاحِمِينَ.
Surely Thou art the Most Merciful of the merciful!
ـ أَللَّهُمَّ اقْضِ لِي فِي الاَرْبِعآءِ أَرْبَعَا:
O God, decree for me on Wednesday four things:
إجْعَلْ قُوَّتِي فِي طاعَتِكَ،
Induce me to be strong in obedience to Thee,
وَنَشاطِي فِي عِبادَتِكَ،
to be joyful in worshipping Thee,
وَرَغْبَتِي فِي ثَوَابِكَ،
to be desirous of Thy reward,
وَزُهْدِي فِيما يُوجِبُ لِي أَلِيمَ عِقابِكَ،
and to abstain from that which would make incumbent upon me Thy painful punishment!
إنَّكَ لَطِيفٌ لِما تَشآءُ.
Thou art Gentle to whom Thou wilt!
