اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي عَبْدُكَ وَ ابْنُ عَبْدَيْكَ هَارِبٌ مِنْكَ إِلَيْكَ أَتَيْتُكَ وَافِداً إِلَيْكَ مُتَأَوِّياً [مُنَاوِياً] مِنْ ذُنُوبِي إِلَيْكَ زَائِراً وَ حَقُّ الزَّائِرِ عَلَى الْمَزُورِ التُّحْفَةُ فَاجْعَلْ تُحْفَتِي مِنْكَ وَ تُحْفَتَكَ لِي رِضًا [رِضَاكَ] وَ الْجَنَّةَ
„O‟ my God! I am Your worshipping servant. I am the son of Your worshipping servant. I am fleeing from You to You! I have come to You willingly, repentant of my sins coming to visit you.And the right of one who visits upon the one being visited is a gift. Then please set aside a gift for me. Let Your gift for me be Your Pleasure and Paradise.
“When you stand up to pray, face the Qibla, exalt God and say the following,
اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَظَّمْتَ حُرْمَةَ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ ثُمَّ أَنْزَلْتَ فِيهِ الْقُرْآنَ
O‟ my God! You indeed have honored the Sacredness of the month of Ramadhan and You revealed the Qur‟an during it.
أَيْ رَبِّ وَ جَعَلْتَ فِيهِ لَيْلَةً خَيْراً مِنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ ثُمَّ مَنَنْتَ عَلَيَّ بِصِيَامِهِ وَ قِيَامِهِ فِيمَا مَنَنْتَ عَلَيَّ فَتَمِّمْ عَلَيَّ مِنْكَ وَ رَحْمَتَكَ
O‟ Lord! You established light in it that is better than a thousand months. Then You Favored me with fasting during it and staying up in what You Favored me with and You perfected Your Favor and Mercy to me.
أَيْ رَبِّ إِنَّ لَكَ فِيهِ عُتَقَاءَ فَإِنْ كُنْتُ مِمَّنْ أَعْتَقْتَنِي فِيهِ فَتَمِّمْ عَلَيَّ وَ لَا تَرُدَّنِي فِي ذَنْبٍ مَا أَبْقَيْتَنِي وَ إِنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ فَعَلْتَ
O‟ Lord! You have freed ones during it, so please let me be one of those freed during it. So perfect it for me and do not let me return to sins for as long as I live.
يَا رَبِّ لِضَعْفِ عَمَلٍ أَوْ لِعِظَمِ ذَنْبٍ فَبِكَرَمِكَ وَ فَضْلِكَ وَ رَحْمَتِكَ [وَ رَحَمَاتِكَ] وَ كِتَابِكَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلْتَ فِيهِ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ وَ مَا أَنْزَلْتَ فِيهَا وَ حُرْمَةَ مَنْ عَظَّمْتَ فِيهَا
O‟ Lord! However, if You do not do so it is due to my weak deeds, or great sins. So I ask You by Your Benevolence, Nobility, Mercy and Your Book which You sent down on the Night of Destiny in the month of Ramadhan, and what You revealed in it, and You exalted its sanctity.
وَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِمَا السَّلَامُ وَ صَلَوَاتُكَ وَ بِكَ يَا اللَّهُ أَتَوَجَّهُ إِلَيْكَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ وَ بِمَنْ بَعْدَهُ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ عَلَيْهِمْ أَتَوَجَّهُ بِكُمْ إِلَى اللَّهِ يَا اللَّهُ أَعْتِقْنِي فِيمَنْ أَعْتَقْتَ السَّاعَةَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ.
And by Muhammad (as) and Ali (as) and by You O‟ God! I turn to You by Muhammad (as) and by those who came after him (as). Please bestow Blessings on them. I turn to God by them. O‟ God! Please let me be amongst the freed ones now for the sake of Muhammad (as).”
