Bismillaahir-Rahmaanir-Raheem

In the name of Allah the Beneficent the Merciful.

إِلَى اللهِ سُبْحانَهُ وَ تَقَدَّسَتْ أَسْماؤُهُ، رَبِّ الْأَرْبابِ، وَ قَاصِمِ الْجَبابِرَةِ الْعِظَامِ، عَالِمِ الْغَيْبِ وَ كَاشِفِ الضُّرِّ، الَّذِي سَبَقَ فِي عِلْمِهِ مَا كَانَ وَ مَا يَكُونُ، مِنْ عَبْدِهِ الذَّلِيلِ الْمِسْكِينِ، الَّذِي انْقَطَعَتْ بِهِ الْأَسْبَابُ، وَ طالَ عَلَيْهِ الْعَذابُ، وَهَجَرَهُ الْأَهْلُ، وَ بَايَنَهُ الصَّدِيْقُ الْحَمِيمُ فَبَقِيَ مُرْتَهِناً بِذَنْبِهِ، قَدْ أَوْبَقَهُ جُرْمُهُ، وَ طَلَبَ الْنَّجَا (ةُ) فَلَمْ يَجِدْ مَلْجَأً وَلَا مُلْتَجَأً، غَيْرَ الْقَادِرِ عَلَى حَلِّ الْعَقْدِ، وَ مُؤَيِّدِ الْأَبَدِ، فَفَزَعِي إِلَيْهِ وَاعْتِمَادِي عَلَيْهِ، وَ لَا لَجَأَ وَلَا مُلْتَجَأَ إِلّا إِلَيْهِ۔

Ila Allah subhanahu wa taqaddasat asma’uhu, Rabbi al-arbab, wa qasim al-jabbarah al-‘izam, ‘alim al-ghayb wa kashif ad-durr, alladhi sabaqa fi ‘ilmihi ma kana wa ma yakunu, min ‘abdihi adh-dhalil al-miskin, alladhi inqata’at bihi al-asbab, wa tala ‘alayhi al-‘adhab, wa hajarahu al-ahl, wa bayyanahu as-sadiq al-hamim fa baqi murtahin bi dhanbihi, qad awbaqahu jurmuhu, wa talab an-naja’ falam yajid malja’an wa la multaja’an, ghayr al-qadir ‘ala hal al-‘aqd, wa mu’ayyid al-abad, fafaz’i ilayhi wa i’timadi ‘alayhi, wa la lajaa wa la multaja’a illa ilayh.

To Allah, glorified and exalted are His names, the Lord of Lords, the crusher of the mighty tyrants, the Knower of the unseen and Dispeller of harm, who precedes in His knowledge all that was and all that will be. From His humble, wretched servant, for whom causes have ceased, who has been afflicted with torment, abandoned by family, and separated from the intimate friend, thus remaining captive due to his sinfulness, whose crime has overwhelmed him, seeking salvation yet finding no refuge or sanctuary except with Him alone, the One capable of untying all knots, the Ever-Supporting. My terrified heart turns toward Him with reliance, for there is no refuge or sanctuary except with Him.

اَللّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِعِلْمِكَ الْمَاضِي، وَ بِنُورِكَ الْعَظِيمِ، وَ بِوَجْهِكَ الْكَرِيمِ، وَ بِحُجَّتِكَ الْبَالِغَةِ، أَنْ تُصَلِّىَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَ أَنْ تَأْخُذَ بِيَدِي وَ تَجْعَلَنِي مِمَّنْ تَقْبَلُ دَعْوَتَهُ، وَ تَقِيْلُ عَثْرَتَهُ، تَكْشِفُ كُرْبَتَهُ، وَ تُزِيلُ تَرْحَتَهُ وَ تَجْعَلُ لَهُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ فَرَجاً وَ مَخْرَجاً، وَ تَرُدُّ عَنِّي بَأْسَ هذَا الظّالِمِ الْغَاشِمِ، وَ بَأْسَ النَّاسِ يَارَبَّ الْمَلآئِكَةِ وَالنّاسِ، حَسْبِي أَنْتَ وَ كَفٰى مَنْ أَنْتَ حَسْبُهُ، يَا كَاشِفَ الْأُمُورِ الْعِظَامِ، فَإِنَّهُ لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِكَ۔

Allahumma inni as’aluka bi ‘ilmika al-madi, wa bi nurika al-‘azim, wa bi wajhika al-karim, wa bi hujjatika al-baligha, an tusalli ‘ala Muhammadin wa ‘ala ali Muhammad, wa an ta’khudha biyadi wa taj’alani mimman taqbalu da’watahu, wa taqilu ‘athratahu, takshifu kurbatahu, wa tuzilu tarhatahu wa taj’al lahu min amrihi farajan wa makhrajan, wa taruddu ‘anni ba’sa hadha adh-dhalim al-ghashim, wa ba’sa an-nas ya rabbal malaa’ikati wa an-nas, hasbi anta wa kafa man anta hasbuhu, ya kashif al-umuri al-‘idham, fa innahu la hawla wa la quwwata illa bika.

O Allah, I ask You by Your past knowledge, by Your mighty light, by Your noble face, and by Your perfect proof, to send blessings on Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, to take me by the hand and make me among those whose prayers You accept, who You soften their hardships, lift their distress, remove their worries, and grant them relief and a way out of their matters. Protect me from the cruelty of this oppressive tyrant and from the oppression of mankind, O Lord of angels and mankind. You are sufficient for me, and sufficient is He upon whom You rely. O Remover of great troubles, indeed there is no power nor strength except with You.

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ، تَوَكَّلْتُ بِحُجَّةِ اللهِ الْخَلَفِ الصّالِحِ، مُحَمَّد بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِىِّ بْنِ مُحَمّد بْنِ عَلِىِّ بْنِ مُوسَى بْنِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّد بْنِ عَلِىِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِىِّ بْنِ أَبى طالِبٍ، الصِّراطِ الْعَظِيمِ، وَالصِّرَاطِ الْمُسْتَقِيمِ، وَالْحَبْلِ الْمَتِينِ، عِصْمَةِ الْمَلْجَإِ، وَ قَسِيمِ الْجَنَّةِ وَالنّارِ۔

Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim, tawakkaltu bihujjatillahi al-khalifi as-salih, Muhammad ibn al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Musa ibn Ja’far ibn Muhammad ibn Ali ibn al-Husayn ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib, as-siratil-‘azim, was-siratil-mustaqim, wal-hablil-matin, ‘ismatil-malja’, wa qasimil-jannati wan-nar.

In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate. I rely upon the Proof of Allah, the virtuous successor, Muhammad son of Hasan son of Ali son of Muhammad son of Ali son of Musa son of Ja’far son of Muhammad son of Ali son of Husayn son of Ali son of Abi Talib, the great path, the straight path, and the strong rope, the safeguard of refuge, and the divider of Paradise and Hell.

أَتَوَسَّلُ إِلَيْكَ بِآبَائِكَ الطَّاهِرِينَ الْخَيِّرِينَ الْمُنْتَجَبِينَ، وَ أُمَّهَاتِكَ الطَّاهِرَاتِ الْبَاقِيَاتِ الصّالِحَاتِ، الَّذِينَ ذَكَرَهُمُ اللهُ فِي كِتابِهِ، فَقالَ عَزَّ مَنْ قآئِلٌ (اَلبَاقِياتُ الصَّالِحَاتُ) وَ بِجَدِّكَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ وَ خَلِيلِهِ وَ حَبِيبِهِ وَ خِيَرَتِهِ مِنْ خَلْقِهِ، أَنْ تَكُونَ وَسِيلَتِي إِلَى اللهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فِي كَشْفِ ضُرِّي وَ حَلِّ عَقْدِي وَ فَرَجِ حَسْرَتِي وَ كَشْفِ بَلِيَّتِي، وَ تَنْفِيسِ تَرْحَتِي، وَ بِكَهيعص وَ بِيس وَالْقُرْآنِ الْحَكيمِ، وَ بِالْكَلِمَةِ الطَّيِّبَةِ۔

Atawassalu ilayka bi-aba’ika at-tahirina al-khayrina al-muntajabina, wa ummahatika at-tahirat al-baqiyat as-salihat, alladhina dhakarahumu Allahu fi kitabihi, fa qala ‘azza man qa’il (al-baqiyatu as-salihat) wa bi-jaddika Rasul Allah sallallahu ‘alayhi wa alihi wa khalilihi wa habibihi wa khayratihi min khalqihi, an takuna wasilati ila Allah ‘azza wa jall fi kashfi durrī wa balli’ati wa tanfis tarrhatī, wa bika hiya’asa wa biyas wal-Qur’an al-hakim, wa bil-kalimati at-tayyibah.

I seek means of approach to You by Your pure, noble, selected ancestors and Your pure, lasting, righteous mothers mentioned by Allah in His Book, as the Mighty One Who spoke said: "The goodly enduring deeds." And by Your Grandfather, the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him and his family, his close friend, his beloved, and his chosen ones from His creation, that You be my intercession to Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, in removing my harm, untying my knot, relieving my grief, alleviating my distress, through Ya Kha’isa and Ya Biys and the Wise Qur’an and the Good Word.

وَ بِمَجارِي الْقُرْآنِ، وَ بِمُسْتَقَرِّ الرَّحْمَةِ، وَ بِجَبَرُوتِ الْعَظَمَةِ، وَ بِاللَّوْحِ الْمَحْفُوظِ، وَ بِحَقِيقَةِ الْإِيمَانِ، وَ قِوَامِ الْبُرْهَانِ، بِنُورِ النُّورِ، وَ بِمَعْدِنِ النُّورِ، وَالْحِجابِ الْمَسْتُورِ، وَالْبَيْتِ الْمَعْمُورِ، وَبِالسَّبْعِ الْمَثَانِي، وَالْقُرْآنِ الْعَظِيمِ، وَ فَرَائِضِ الْأَحْكَامِ، وَالْمُتَكَلِّمِ بِالْعِبْرانِىِّ، وَالْمُتَرْجِمِ بِالْيُونَانِىِّ، وَالْمُنَاجٰى بِالسِّرْيَانِيِّ، وَ مَا دَارَ فِي الْخَطَرَاتِ، وَ مَا لَمْ يُحِطْ بِهِ لِلظُّنُونِ، مِنْ عِلْمِكَ الْمَخْزُونِ، وَ بِسِرِّكَ الْمَصُونِ، وَالتَّوْرَاةِ وَالْإِنْجِيلِ وَالزَّبُورِ۔

Wa bimajari al-Quran, wa b mustaqarri ar-rahma, wa bijabaruti al-‘azama, wa billawhi al-mahfuz, wa bihaqiqatil-imani, wa qiyamil-burhan, binuri an-nur, wa b ma’din an-nur, wal-hijab al-mastur, wal-bayt al-ma’mur, wa bis-sabi’ al-mathani, wal-Qur’an al-‘azim, wa fara’id al-ahkam, wal-mutakallim bil-‘ibrani, wal-mutarjim bil-yunani, wal-munaji bissiryani, wa ma dal fi al-khatarat, wa ma lam yuhit bihi lil-zunun, min ‘ilmika al-makhzun, wa bisirrika al-masun, wat-Tawra wa al-Injil wa az-Zabur.

And by the streams of the Qur’an, and by the place of mercy, and by the might of power, and by the preserved tablet, and by the reality of faith, and the pillar of proof, by the light of the Light, and by the mine of the Light, and by the concealed veil, and the frequented house, and the seven oft-repeated [verses], and the great Qur’an, and the obligations of the laws, and the speaker in Hebrew, and the translator in Greek, and the intercessor in Syriac, and whatever has passed in mental thoughts, and what the conjectures couldn’t encompass of Your preserved knowledge, and by Your protected secret and the Torah, the Gospel, and the Psalms.

يا ذَا الْجَلالِ وَالْإِكْرامِ صَلِّ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ، وَ خُذْ بِيَدِي، وَ فَرِّجْ عَنِّي بِأَنْوارِكَ وَ أَقْسَامِكَ وَ كَلِماتِكَ الْبالِغَةِ، إِنَّكَ جَوادٌ كَريمٌ، وَ حَسْبُنَا اللهُ وَ نِعْمَ الْوَكيلُ، وَلَا حَوْلَ وَلا قُوَّةَ إِلّا بِاللهِ الْعَلِيِّ الْعَظِيمِ، وَ صَلَواتُهُ وَ سَلامُهُ عَلَى صَفْوَتِهِ مِنْ بَرِيَّتِهِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ ذُرِّيَّتِهِ۔

Ya dha al-jalali wal-ikram, salli ‘ala Muhammad wa alihi, wa khudh biyadi, wa farrij ‘anni bi-anwarika wa aqsamika wa kalimatika al-baligha, innaka jawadun kareem, wa hasbuna Allah wa ni’mal wakeel, wa la hawla wa la quwwata illa billahil ‘aliyyil ‘azim, wa salawatuhu wa salamuhu ‘ala safwatihi min bariyatihi Muhammad wa dhurriyatihi.

O Possessor of Majesty and Honor, send blessings upon Muhammad and his family, hold my hand, and relieve me through Your lights, Your parts, and Your perfect words. You are Generous and Noble. Allah is sufficient for us and He is the best Disposer of affairs. There is no power nor strength except with Allah, the Most High, the Most Great. And may His blessings and peace be upon the chosen ones of His creation, Muhammad and his descendants.

اَللّهُمَّ إِنّى أَسْأَلُكَ بِالْقُدْرَةِ الَّتِي لَحَظْتَ بِهَا الْبَحْرَ الْعِجَاجَ، فَأَزْبَدَ وَهاجَ وَ مَاجَ، وَ كَانَ كَاللَّيْلِ الدَّاجِ، طَوْعاً لِأَمْرِكَ، وَ خَوْفاً مِنْ سَطْوَتِكَ، فَأَفْتَقَ أُجَاجُهُ، وَائْتَلَقَ مِنْهَاجُهُ، وَ سَبَّحَتْ جَزآئِرُهُ، وَ قَدَّسَتْ جَواهِرُهُ، تُنَادِيكَ حِيتَانُهُ بِاخْتِلَافِ لُغَاتِهَا، إِلهَنَا وَ سَيِّدَنَا مَا الَّذِي نَزَلَ بِنَا، وَ مَا الَّذِي حَلَّ بِبَحْرِنَا فَقُلْتَ لَهَا أُسْكِنِي سَأُسْكِنُكَ مَلِيّاً، وَأُجاوِرُبِكَ عَبْداً زَكِيّاً، فَسَكَنَ وَ سَبَّحَ وَ وَعَدَ بِضَمآئِرِ الْمِنَحِ۔

Allahumma inni as’aluka biqudratika allati lahazta biha al-bahr al-‘ijaj, fa azbada wahaja wa maja, wa kana kallayl ad-daji, taw’an li amrika, wa khawfan min satwatika, fa aftaqa ujajuhu, wa italaqa minhaju, wa sabbahat jaza’iru, wa qaddasat jawahiruhu, tunadika hayatan bihktilaf lughatiha, ilahana wa sayyidana ma alladhi nazala bina, wa ma alladhi halla biharina fa qulta laha uskini sauuskinuka maliyan, wa ujawiruka ‘abdan zakiyan, fasakana wa sabaaha wa wa’ada bidama’iri al-minah.

O Allah, I ask You by the power with which You looked upon the roaring sea that overflowed, surged, and raged, dark as the night, obedient to Your command and fearful of Your might. It burst forth, opened its way, and its islands glorified You, and its pearls were sanctified, its fish calling to You in diverse tongues: O our God and our Master, what has befallen us and our sea? You said to it, “Calm down, I will keep you calm,” and “I will make a righteous servant dwell near you.” So it calmed, glorified, and promised the essence of gifts.

فَلَمّا نَزَلَ بِهِ ابْنُ مَتّٰى بِما أَلِمَ الظُّنُونُ، فَلَمّا صَارَ فِي فِيهَا سَبَّحَ فِي أُمْعآئِهَا، فَبَكَتِ الْجِبَالُ عَلَيْهِ تَلَهُّفاً، وَ أَشْفَقَتْ عَلَيْهِ الْأَرْضُ تَأَسُّفاً، فَيُونُسُ فِي حُوتِهِ كمُوسىٰ فِي تابُوتِهِ لِأَمْرِكَ طآئِعٌ، وَ لِوَجْهِكَ ساجِدٌ خاضِعٌ، فَلَمّا أَحْبَبْتَ أَنْ تَقِيَهُ أَلْقَتْهُ بِشَاطِئِ الْبَحْرِ شَلْواً لَا تَنْظُرُ عَيْنَاهُ، وَلَا تَبْطِشُ يَدَاهُ، وَلَا تَرْكُضُ رِجْلَاهُ، وَ أَنْبَتَّ مِنْكَ عَلَيْهِ شَجَرَةً مِنْ يَقْطِينٍ، وَ أَجْرَيْتَ لَهُ فُرَاتاً مِنْ مَعينٍ، فَلَمَّا اسْتَغْفَرَ وَ تابَ خَرَقْتَ لَهُ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ بَاباً، إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْوَهّابُ

Falamman nazala bihi Ibn Matta bima alima adh-dhunun, falamma sara fi fiha sabbaha fi um’aiha, fabakat al-jibal ‘alayhi talahhufan, wa ashfaqat ‘alayhi al-ard ta’sufan, Fayunas fi hutihi kamusa fi tabutihi li amrika tai’un, wa li wajhika sajidun khadi’un, falamma ahbabta an taqiyahu alqat’ahu bishati al-bahr shalwan la tandhur ‘aynahu, wa la tabtishu yadahu, wa la tarkudu rijlahu, wa anba’at minka ‘alayhi shajarat min yaqtin, wa ajrayta lahu furatan min ma’in, falamma istaghfara wa taba kharaqata lahu ila al-jannah baban, innaka anta Al-Wahhab.

When Ibn Matta came to him upon what had been suspected, and when he was in it, he glorified in his insides. The mountains wept for him eagerly, and the earth took pity on him sorrowfully. Yunus (Jonah) in his whale was like Moses in his Ark, obedient to Your command and prostrating submissively to Your countenance. When You wished to protect him, You cast him ashore, paralysed; his eyes would not see, his hands would not strike, and his legs would not run. From You, a gourd plant grew over him, and You provided him with a fresh spring. When he repented and sought forgiveness, You opened for him a door to Paradise. Indeed, You are The Bestower.
