یَا اللّٰهُ یَاعَلِيُّ یَاعَظِیمُ یَاحَلِیمُ یَاعَلِیمُ، أَنْتَ رَبِّي وَعِلْمُكَ حَسْبِي، فَنِعْمَ الرَّبُّ رَبِّي وَنِعْمَ الْحَسْبُ حَسْبِي، تَنْصُرُ مَنْ تَشَآءُ وَأَنْتَ الْعَزِیزُ الرَّحِیمُ

1. O Allah, O High, O Great, O Clement, O All-Knowing; You are my Lord and Your knowledge is my sufficiency; how perfect, then, is my Lord, how perfect my sufficiency! You give victory to whom You will, and You are the Almighty, the Merciful.
نَسْأَلُكَ الْعِصْمَةَ فِي الْحَرَكَاتِ وَالسَّكَنَاتِ وَالْكَلِمَاتِ وَالْإِرَادَاتِ وَالْخَطَرَاتِ مِنَ الشُّكُوكِ وَالظُّنُونِ وَالْأَوْهَامِ السَّآتِرَةِ لِلْقُلُوبِ عَنْ مُطَالَعَةِ الْغُیُوبِ

2. We ask Your protection in movements and rests, in words and desires and thoughts; from the doubts, suppositions, and fancies that veil hearts from beholding things unseen.
فَقَدِ ﴿ٱبْتُلِيَ الْمُؤمِنُونَ وَزُلْزِلُوا زِلْزَالًا شَدِیدًا، وَإِذْ یَقُولُ الْمُنَافِقُونَ وَالَّذِینَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ مَّرَضٌ مَّا وَعَدَنَا اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ إِلَّا غُرُورًا﴾

3. For the believers have been tried, and mightily shaken and lo, the hypocrites and those with sickness in their hearts say: Allah and His Messenger have promised us nothing but delusion. [33:11-12].
فَثَبِّتْنَا وَانْصُرْنَا وَسَخِّرْ لَنَا ھذَا الْبَحْرَ كَمَا سَخَّرْتَ الْبَحْرَ لِمُوْسَى، وَسَخَّرْتَ النَّارَ لِإِبْرَاهِیمَ، وَسَخَّرْتَ الْجِبَالَ وَالْحَدِیدَ لِدَاوُدَ، وَسَخَّرْتَ الرِّیحَ وَالشَّیَاطِینَ وَالْجِنَّ لِسُلَیْمَانَ

4. So make us steadfast, give us victory, and subject to us this sea, as You subjected the sea to Moses, the fire to Abraham, the mountains and Iron to David, the wind and demons and jinn to Solomon.
وَسَخِّرْ لَنَا كُلَّ بَحْرٍ هُوَ لَكَ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَالسَّمَآءِ وَالْمُلْكِ وَالْمَلَكُوتِ، وَبَحْرَ الدُّنْیَا وَبَحْرَ الْآخِرَةِ، وَسَخِّرْ لَنَا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ، يَا مَنْ بِيَدِهِ مَلَكُوتُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ
Wa sakhkhir lanā kulla baḥrin huwa laka fi l-arḍi wa s-samā’i wa l-mulki wa l-malakūti, wa baḥra d-dunyā wa baḥra l-ākhirati, wa sakhkhir lanā kulla shay’in, ya man bi yadihi malakūtu kulli shay’.
5. Subject to us every sea You possess, in the earth and the sky, the kingdom and the dominion, the sea of this life and the sea of the life to come. Subject to us everything, O You in whose hand is dominion of everything.

7. Give us victory, for You are the best who give victory. Clear our vision, for You are the best who clear visions. Forgive us, for You are the best of forgivers. Have mercy on us, for You are the best of the merciful. Give us sustenance, for You are the best of providers. Guide us, and save us from the wrongdoing folk.
وَهَبْ لَنَا رِیحًا طَیِّبَةً كَمَا هِيَ فِي عِلْمِكَ، وَانْشُرْهَا عَلَيْنَا مِنْ خَزَآئِنِ رَحْمَتِكَ، واحْمِلْنَا بِهَا حَمْلَ الْكَرَامَةِ مَعَ السَّلَامَةِ وَالْعَافِیَّةِ فِي الدِّینِ وَالدُّنْیَا وَالْآخِرَةِ، إِنَّكَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِیرٌ

8. Give us a goodly wind, as may be in Your knowledge; loose it upon us from the storehouses of Your mercy; and carry us upon it in honour, with safety and wellbeing in our religion, in our life in this world, and in the world to come. Truly, You have power over all things.
اللَّهُمَّ یَسِّرْ لَنَا أُمُورَنَا مَعَ الرَّاحَةِ لِقُلُوبِنَا وَأَبْدَانِنَا وَالسَّلَامَةِ وَالْعَافِيَةِ فِي دِينِنَا وَدُنيَانَا، وَكُنْ لَنَا صَاحِبًا فِي سَفَرِنَا وَخَلِیفَةً فِي أَهْلِنَا، وَاطْمِسْ عَلَىٰ وُجُوهِ أَعْدَآئِنَا وَامْسَخْهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَكَانَتِهِمْ فَلَا یَسْتَطِیعُونَ الْمُضِيَّ وَلَا الْمَجِيءَ إِلَیْنَا

9. O Allah, give us ease in our affairs, with peace for our hearts and bodies, and safety and wellbeing in our worldly life and our religion. Be our companion in our travels, and keep watch over our families in our stead. Blot out the faces of our enemies, and fix them where they stand, so they can neither move nor reach us.
﴿وَلَوْ نَشَآءُ لَطَمَسْنَا عَلَىٰ أَعْيُنِهِمْ فَاسْتَبَقُوا الصِّرَاطَ فَأَنَّىٰ يُبْصِرُونَ، وَلَوْ نَشَآءُ لَمَسَخْنَاهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَكَانَتِهِمْ فَمَا اسْتَطَاعُوا مُضِيًّا وَلَا يَرْجِعُونَ﴾
Wa law nashā’u la-ṭamasnā ʿalā aʿyunihim fa-stbaqū ṣ-ṣirāṭa fa-annā yubṣirūna, wa law nashā’u la masakhnāhum ʿalā makānatihim fama-staṭāʿū muḍiyyan wa lā yarjiʿūn.
10. Had We willed, We would have blotted out their eyes; and they would race to the path, but how should they see? Or had We willed, We would have fixed them where they stood, so they neither could go forward, nor return.
[36:66-67]
﴿يٰسٓ، وَالْقُرْآنِ الْحَكِيمِ، إِنَّكَ لَمِنَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ، عَلَىٰ صِرَاطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ، تَنْزِيلَ الْعَزِيزِ الرَّحِيمِ، لِتُنْذِرَ قَوْمًا مَّآ أُنْذِرَ اٰبَآؤُهُمْ فَهُمْ غَافِلُونَ، لَقَدْ حَقَّ الْقَوْلُ عَلَىٰ أَكْثَرِهِمْ فَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ، إِنَّا جَعَلْنَا فِي أَعْنَاقِهِمْ أَغْلَالًا فَهِيَ إِلَى الْأَذْقَانِ فَهُمْ مُّقْمَحُونَ، وَجَعَلْنَا مِنْ بَيْنِ أَيْدِيهِمْ سَدًّا وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ سَدًّا فَأَغْشَيْنَاهُمْ فَهُمْ لَا يُبْصِرُونَ﴾

11. Yā Sīn. By the Wise Qur’an, truly you are of the messengers, upon a straight path. This is a revelation of the Almighty, the Merciful; that you might warn a people whose forefathers were not warned, so they heed not. Already has sentence been passed against most of them, so they believe not. Verily We have placed shackles on their necks, even up to the chins, so they bend not. And We have placed a barrier before them, and a barrier behind them, and enshrouded them, so that they see not.
