اللَّهُمَّ أَيُّمَا عَبْد مِنْ عِبَادِكَ سَمِعَ مَقَالَتَنَا الْعَادِلَةَ غَيْرَ الْجَائِرَةِ،
O My God! Whoever listens to our utterance which is just
وَالْمُصْلِحَةَ فِي الدِّينِ وَالدُّنْيَا غَيْرَ الْمُفْسِدَةِ،
and which seeks the prosperity of religion and the worldly life and does not seek mischief,
فَأَبَى بَعْدَ سَمْعِهِ لَهَا إِلاَّ النُّكُوصَ عَنْ نُصْرَتِكَ،
but rejects it after listening, then he certainly turns away from Thy support
وَالاْبْطَاءَ عَنْ إِعْزَازِ دِينِكَ،
and desists from strengthening Thy religion.
فَإِنَّا نَسْتَشْهِدُكَ عَلَيْهِ يَا أَكْبَرَ الشَّاهِدِينَ شَهَادَةً،
We make Thee a witness over him and Thou art the greatest of all witnesses,
وَنَسْتَشْهِدُ عَلَيْهِ جَمِيعَ مَا اَسْكَنْتَهُ أَرْضَكَ وَسَمَاوَاتِكَ،
and we make all those who inhabit Thy earth and Thy skies witness over him.
ثُمَّ أَنْتَ بَعْدُ الْمُغْنِي عَنْ نَصْرِهِ،
Thereafter, Thou alone can make us needless of his support
وَالاْخِذُ لَهُ بِذَنْبِهِ.
and question him for his sin.
