O He from whom is not concealed
news of the aggrieved! |
2 |
O He who has no need to be told about them
by the witnessing of the
witnesses! |
3 |
O He who whose help is near to the wronged! |
4 |
O He whose aid is far from the wrongdoers! |
5 |
Thou knowest, my God,
how so-and-so, son of
so-and-so, has harmed me
in
that which Thou hast forbidden,
and how he has violated me
in
that which Thou hast prohibited,
showing thereby ingratitude
toward Thy favour upon him
and
delusion concerning what Thou hast denied him. |
6 |
O God,
so bless Muhammad and his
Household,
keep my wrongdoing enemy from
wronging me through Thy strength,
blunt his blade toward me
through Thy power,
and assign to him
a
diversion in that which is close to him
and
the inability to reach his enemy! |
7 |
O God,
bless Muhammad and his
Household,
let the wrongdoer not find it
easy to wrong me,
give me good help against him,
preserve me from the like of
his acts,
and place me not in the like
of his situation! |
8 |
O God,
bless Muhammad and his
Household,
and assist me with an
immediate assistance
that
will heal my rage toward him
and
redeem my fury toward him! |
9 |
O God,
bless Muhammad and his
Household,
compensate me for his wronging
me with Thy pardon
and
replace his evil action toward me with Thy mercy,
for every detested thing less
than Thy anger is slight
and
every disaster next to Thy rancour indifferent! |
10 |
O God,
just as Thou hast made me
detest being wronged,
so also protect me from doing
wrong! |
11 |
O God,
I complain to no one but Thee,
and I seek help from no ruler
other than Thee -
how
could I?
So bless Muhammad and his
Household,
join my supplication to
response,
and
unite my complaint with change! |
12 |
O God,
tempt me not with despair of
Thy just treatment
and
tempt him not with feeling secure from Thy disapproval,
lest he persist in wronging me
and
constrain me in my rights.90
Let him soon recognize
what
Thou hast promised the wrongdoers91
and let me recognize
Thy
promised response to the distressed!92 |
13 |
O God,
bless Muhammad and his
Household,
give me success in accepting
Thy decrees
for
me and against me,
make me pleased with what Thou
takest
for
me and from me,
guide me to that which is most
upright
and
employ me in that which is safest! |
14 |
O God,
if the best for me with Thee
lies
in
delaying the taking to task for my sake
of
him who has wronged me
and
in refraining from vengeance toward him
until
the Day of Decision and
the
Gathering of Disputants,
then bless Muhammad and his
Household,
strengthen me from Thee
with
true intention
and
lasting patience, |
15 |
give
me refuge
from
evil desire
and
the impatience of the greedy,
and form in my heart the image
of
Thy
reward
which
Thou hast stored away for me
and
the repayment and punishment
which
Thou has prepared for my disputant!
Make this a cause of my
contentment
with
what Thou hast decreed
and my trust
in
what Thou hast chosen! |
16 |
Amen,
Lord of the worlds!
Thou art of bounty abounding
and Thou art powerful over
everything. |
