The Supplication for Sunday
|
In the Name of God, the All-merciful,
the All-compassionate
| 1 |
In the name of God,
from whom I hope for nothing
but bounty,
and from whom I fear nothing
but justice!
I rely only upon His word,
and
I cling only to His cord! |
| 2 |
In
Thee I seek sanctuary
-
O Possessor of pardon and good pleasure -
from
wrong and enmity,
from
the changes of time and the recurrence of sorrows,
from
the striking of mishaps,
and
from the expiration of my term
before
preparation and readiness. |
| 3 |
From
Thee I seek guidance
to
that wherein is righteousness and being set right. |
| 4 |
From
Thee I seek help
in
that which is linked to success and favourable response. |
| 5 |
Thee
I beseech
for
the garment of well-being
and
its completion
and
for the covering of health
and
its permanence.
I seek refuge in Thee, my
Lord,
from
the goadings of the satans,
and
I seek protection in Thy sovereignty
from
the injustice of the sovereigns.
So accept my past prayers and
fasting
and
make my tomorrow and what is after
better
than my present hour and my today!
Exalt me in my clan and my
people
and
protect me in my waking and my sleeping!
For Thou art God, the Best
Guardian,
and
Thou art the Most Merciful of the merciful.290

O God,
I am quit before Thee
on
this day of mine
and
on all Sundays that follow it
of
associating others with Thee and of heresy,
and I devote my supplication
sincerely to Thee,
addressing
myself to Thy response. |
| 7 |
So
bless Muhammad and the Household of Muhammad,
the
best of Thy creation,
the
summoner to Thy truth,
exalt me with Thy exaltation,
which
is never made to suffer loss,
protect me with Thy eye,
which
never sleeps,
and seal
my
affairs by cutting me off from everything but Thee
and
my life with forgiveness!
Surely Thou art the
All-forgiving,
the
All-compassionate! |
