اَللّٰهُمَّ اقْسِمْ لَنَا مِنْ خَشْيَتِك
allaahummaq sim lanaa min khasyateka
O Allah! Grant us as much fear of You
From Sayyid ibn Taaoos in al-Iqbaal: Among the actions to be performed on the eve of the fifteenth of Sha’ban are... and the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a.) used to supplicate on this night and say:
وَ بَيْنَ مَعْصِيَتِكَ ما يَحُوْلُ بَيْنَنَا
maa yahoolo baynanaa wa bayna ma’seyate ka
as would prevent us from your disobedience,and as much obedience
مَا تُبَلِّغُنَا بِهٖ رِضْوانَك وَ مِنْ طاعَتِك
wa min ta-a’teka maa toballeghonaa behi rizwaanaka
as would make us attain your pleasure, and as much certainty
بِهٖ مُصِيْبَاتِ الدُّنْيَا ما يَهُوْنُ عَلَيْنَا وَ مِنَ الْيَقِيْن
wa menal yaqeene maa yahoono a’laynaa behi mosee-baatid dunyaa.
as would make bearable for us the tribulations of this world.
اَللّٰهُمَّ مَتِّعْنَا بِاَسْمَاعِنَاوَ اَبْصَارِنَا وَ قُوَّتِنَا
allaahumma matte’naa be-asmaa-e’naa wa absaarenaa wa quwwatenaa
O Allah! Grant us the use of our hearing, sight and strength
وَ اجْعَلْهُ الْوَارِثَ مِنَّا مَا اَحْيَيْتَنَا
maa ahyaytanaa waj a’lahul waaresa minnaa
in the life You have given us, and let it remain with us until we die,
مَنْ ظَلَمَنَا وَ انْصُرْنَا وَ اجْعَلْ ثَارَنَا عَلٰى
waj a’l saaranaa a’laa man zalamanaa wan surnaa
and avenge those who have oppressed us, and help us against those
وَ لَا تَجْعَلْ عَلٰى مَنْ عَادَانَا
a’laa man a’adaanaa wa laa taj-a’l
who have become our enemies, and do not keep
مُصِيْبَتَنَا فِيْ دِيْنِنَا
mosebatanaa fee deenenaa
tribulations for us in our religion,
وَ لَا تَجْعَلِ الدُّنْيَا اَكْبَرَ هَمِّنَا
wa laa taj-a’lid dunyaa akbara hammenaa
and do not make this world our greatest concern,
وَ لَا مَبْلَغَ عِلْمِنَاوَ لَا تُسَلِّطْ عَلَيْنَا
wa laa mabagha i’lmenaa wa laa tosallit a’laynaa
nor the limit of our knowledge, and do not make sovereign upon us
مَنْ لا يَرْحَمُنَا بِرَحْمَتِك
man laa yarhamonaa be-rahmateka
one who has no mercy on us, by your mercy
يا اَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِيْنَ.
yaa arhamar raahemeen.
O Most Merciful of mercifuls.
