اَللّٰھُمَّ صَلِّ عَلٰی مُحَمَّدٍ وَّ اٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ
allahumma salli `ala muhammadin wa ali muhammad
O Allah: (please do) bless Muhammad and the Household of Muhammad
يَا عَلِيُّ يَا عَظِيْمُ،
ya `aliyyu ya `azimu
O Most High! O All-great!
يَا غَفُوْرُ يَا رَحِيْمُ،
ya ghafuru ya rahimu
O All-forgiving! O All-merciful!
اَنْتَ الرَّبُّ الْعَظِيْمُ
anta alrrabbu al`azimu
You are the All-great Lord
الَّذِيْ لَيْسَ كَمِثْلِهِ شَيْءٌ
alladhi laysa kamithlihi shay`un
like Whom there is nothing,
وَهُوَ السَّمِيْعُ الْبَصِيْرُ
wa huwa alssami`u albasiru
and He is the All-hearing, the All-aware.
وَهٰذَا شَهْرٌ عَظَّمْتَهُ وَكَرَّمْتَهُ
wa hadha shahrun `azzamtahu wa karramtahu
This is a month that You have glorified, ennobled,
وَشَرَّفْتَهُ وَفَضَّلْتَهُ عَلَى الشُّهُوْرِ
wa sharraftahu wa faddaltahu `ala alshshuhuri
honored, and preferred to the other months.
وَهُوَ الشَّهْرُ الَّذِيْ فَرَضْتَ صِيَامَهُ عَلَيَّ
wa huwa alshsharhu alladhi faradta siyamahu `alayya
It is the month that You imposed upon me to observe fasting in it.
وَهُوَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ، الَّذِيْ اَنْزَلْتَ فِيْهِ الْقُرْاٰنَ
wa huwa shahru ramadana alladhi anzalta fihi alqur`ana
It is the month of Ramadan during which You revealed the Qur'an
هُدًى لِّلنَّاسِ وَبَيِّنَاتٍ مِنَ الْهُدٰى وَالْفُرْقَانِ
hudan linnasi wa bayyinatin min alhuda walfurqani
as guidance for people, clear proofs on true guidance, and distinction (between the right and the wrong).
وَجَعَلْتَ فِيْهِ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ
wa ja`alta fihi laylata alqadri
You decided the Grand Night to be in it
وَجَعَلْتَهَا خَيْرًا مِّنْ اَلْفِ شَهْرٍ
wa ja`altaha khayran min alfi shahrin
and You have decided it to be more favorable that one thousand months.
فَيَا ذَا الْمَنِّ وَلَا يُمَنُّ عَلَيْكَ
faya dhalmanni wa la yumannu `alayka
So, O Lord of graces! None can ever do favor to You!
مُنَّ عَلَيَّ بِفَكَاكِ رَقَبَتِيْ مِنَ النَّارِ فِيْمَنْ تَمُنُّ عَلَيْهِ
munna `alayya bifakaki raqabati min alnnari fi man tamunnu `alayhi
please, do me a favor by releasing me from the Fire and by including me with those to whom You do this favor,
وَاَدْخِلْنِى الْجَنَّةَ
wa adkhilni aljannata
and allow me to enter Paradise,
بِرَحْمَتِكَ يَا اَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِيْنَ ۔
birahmatika ya arhama alrrahimina
on account of Your mercy. O most Merciful of all those who show mercy!
