PREFACE
Mehmed Zahid Kotku (RhA)
As-salamu alaikum wa rahmatullah!
Dear Brothers and Sisters!
Peace and Mercy of Allah be with you.
Let me state in advance that Islam could not be
maintained with ritual worship alone. Of course without accepting the five
Principles of Islam, no one can be a Muslim. A deliberate refusal or
negligence of one of these principles suffices to take a person outside of
Islam.
Without any doubt, the creed of Islam is very important.
We state the six elements of the creed in "Amentu" [Amentu billâhi wa
malâiketihî wa kutubihî wa rusuluhî wal yawmul akhiri wa bil qadari khayrihî
wa sharrihî min allahi ta'alâ wal ba'thu ba'dal mawt haqqun ash-hadu en lâ
ilâha illâllah wa ash-hadu enne muhammeden abduhű wa rasűluhű -- I
believe in Allah, His angels, His scriptures, His prophets, the last day,
the destiny that good and evil are from Allah and the resurrection after
death for the accounting of the deeds. I bear witness that there is no
deity but Allah and that Muhammed is his servant and prophet.]
The ritual worship, the five principles of Islam --
declaring the shahadah, daily formal prayers, fasting in Ramadhan,
Pilgrimage, and Zakah -- are included in the creed; they are not outside of
the belief. I recommend you study the catechisim books to learn the
details.
Islam has stated permeanent principles for the happiness
of man. These principles are not temporary but permeanent. As much as these
are adhered to, a person will be happy, and his happiness and peace will be
continuous.
Islam not only gives happiness to individuals, it also
provides strength to the society. It does that through the code of conduct
that is included in it. A Muslim is a person who does not hurt anybody; a
person that everybody feels safe about him. He does good
things to everybody. He prefers others when it comes to food and clothing.
He would spend for the needs of the poor and destitude. He would not
do any campaign against anybody. He is not proud of himself;
he would not have haughtiness, showiness, hatred, ambitions, fame, anger,
mischief, and similar ill characters. On the contrary, he
would be generous, brave, humble, content, sincere, merciful, and equipped
with the good characters and dispositions (ahsen-i
taqwîm).
Let me explain you the
ahsen-i taqwîm: it general, it means having good cahracters and
judgement. A peson who has positive assumptions, who does not cheat or be
cheated, will have it. It means being calm, pleasant, gentle, well mannered,
knowledgeable, righteous, ascetic, pious, worshipping and God-conscious. A
person with ahsen-i taqwîm is the most honorable of the creation.
We should be tahankful for being created in this form. The
thnakfulness includes the ritual worship, and obeying Allah's orders in all
aspects of life and being a good servant to Him.
One may not neglect or diregard the orders of Allah. It
is a religous requirement.
We might have disobeyed the orders of Allah. We should
ask for forgiveness for the offenses we might have committed unknowingly,
and we should turn to Allah in repentance for the offences we might have
commiteed knowingly. We should seek forgiveness form Allah as
long as we live an all the time. We should keep in mind that the happiness
in this world and in the hereafter is obtained via obedience to the orders
of Allah.
In Islam, the creed, the worship, the marriage and the
business and other interactions in the society are clearly described. The
penalties for the disobedience are also described. It is up to
the individual Muslim to keep himself away from the punishments. I
recommend you try to keep yourself away from the punishments, for the
punishment of Allah is not like the punishment by people. the endless life
in the hereafter could continue with the blessings of
Paradise
or with the fire of Hell. Muslims are for the blessings of
Paradise.
May Allah keep the path of guidance open for us.
Dear Brothers and Sisters!
May Almighty Allah grant us to live as Muslims, to die as
Muslims and stay in
Paradise
forever. Amen!
Let us seek acceptance of our appeal by the supplications
below.
There have been many dua collections published. This
powerless brother of yours has gathered this book of prayers with the
intention of a service for my respected Brothers and Sisters. It contains
prayers from three books--totaling two-thousand pages--by our respected
master Ahmed Ziyaeddin Gumushkhanawi (KS), and prayers from the hadith
collections Bukharî, Tirmidhî, Jâmius-Saghîr and Râműz-al-Ahadith.
It also contains the dua verses, the praise verses, and unity verses
of the Qur'an that Almighty Allah has taught us. I have also added the
prayers by the awliyaullah, for the mercy of Allah is revealed where their
names are mentioned.
You include this brother of yours in your prayers that
Almighty Allah be consent with us.
You read these prayers with wudu and sincerity. May
Allah accept your prayers May His messenger SAS be our
intercessor on the Day of Judgment. Amen!
This book of Awrad of Qur'an is a seven-day reading book.
It is based on the work by Usâma RA upon the instruction by the Prophet
SAS. Once, Usâma RA went to
Isfahan
town of
Iran.
Then the rulers belonged to the Karamita sect which was deviated from the
straight path. He was imprisoned and tortured until he had no
strenth. A Friday night, he dreamed about the Prophet SAS.
The Prophet instucted him: "O Muhammed bin Usâma! Get up and get the
Qur'an. Make yourself seven daily reading duty. Read the
section of the day every day. Verily you will be freed from
the prison and be in much better condition."
It was recommended that Usâma RA gathered the praise
verses for friday, repentence verses for Saturday, the glorification verses
for Sunday, the trust verses for Monday, peace verses for Tuesday, the unity
verses for Wednesday, and all dua verses for Thursday. He was also
recommended to read these verses regularly everyday. Usâma RA
followed the instructions of the Prophet SAS. Almighty Allah granted him
the freedom from the prison. If a person sincerely continues
reading these verses for everyday, he will attain his hearts desire by the
will of Allah. There should be no doubts about it.
There are many daily prayer books (awrad).
For instance, there are the awrad by Abdulqadir Geylânî (RhA), Ahmed Rufâi
(RhA), Hasan Shazali (RhA) and Muhammed Bahaeddin Naqshiband, and many other
great personages. There are daily and weekly prayer books. Yet there is
nothing comparable to this seven-day Qur'an awrad. You should appreciate
it! Recite the daily section every day. Keep your intentions pure.
Almighty Allah is aware of your needs and rewards you accordingly so long as
you are on His path, obedient to His orders and abstain from His
prohibitions. Learn about the orders and prohibitions and teach them to
people around you and your neighbors. If you neglect that, you will not be
considered as on the path of Allah. Be aware that this is the recommendation
of the Prophet SAS.
In the hadith collection Musned
of Imam Ahmed bin Hanbal, there is a section about the ahadith of Usâma bin
Zayd RA. Yet there is a well known verse:
"O you who have believed! Save
yourselves and your family members from fire whose fuel is people and
rocks." (Qur'an 66:6)
Our principle duty is to protect
ourselves and our families from the fire of this life and hereafter. For
this, we must teach our children about the orders of Allah and of the
Prophet SAS, so they could avoid the prohibitions and carry out the orders.
We should also encourage our family members, friends and neighbors to do the
good deeds and avoid the sins. That is one of our obligations because Islam
is upheld by nasiha (good advice).
For the prayers and all of our
worship to be acceptable for Allah, we must clear ourselves from all kinds
of sins. The bad manners and conduct is not any less than these sins. For
instance, a highway robber stops the travelers and steals their
possessions. Yet one who lives in a town can fool you with his words and
get your money, too. Both are thieves; one is hidden the other is
apparent. Both are very dangerous. The sins are like that, too. Some are
obvious: adultery, gambling, murder and others, while some are hidden:
haughtiness, showoff, grudge, and alike.
For the acceptance of the prayers
and worship, one must avoid all the major and minor offences and abandon ill
characters and manners including the love for money (I would like to see you
save yourself from the love for money). May Allah protect all of us. Once
a person is addicted to love for money and the offences, his eyes will be
blinded. He would not see the truth. Then he would call the falsehood
truth, and the truth falsehood. We all observe such cases in the society.
Dear Respected Brothers and Sisters!
Read these prayers carefully, carry
out your worship, keep yourself away from sins and help others stay away
from sins, too. That is how Islam is kept alive. This is called amr bil
ma’ruf nahy anil munkar. This is the jugular vein of Islam: Ordaining
the good and forbidding the evil.
In the second part of this book there are prayers from the blessed mouth of
the Prophet SAS. They are the crowns on our heads. There are also
additional prayers that are famous. I include them here, so you remember us
in your prayers. May Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala be pleased with all
of us. Amin!
The commentary of the verse given
above by Hadrat Abubakr as-Siddiq is well known: Protecting one self and
his family members from the fire is possible only through jihad and helping
with jihad. There is no doubt about this. Running away from jihad or
avoiding help with jihad causes the decline of Islam and takes a person to
the middle of Hell. Jihad does not have to be with disbelievers; as a
matter of fact, the jihad with the disbelievers is called the minor jihad.
The major jihad is to be an exemplary Muslim in this life.
Dear Brothers and Sisters! Let me repeat my words: Being a Muslim means
doing the worship and avoiding the offences. Learn about it and teach others
about it, too. Only the ritual worship is not sufficient for good
servitude; the worship, the creed, the marriage and business interactions
must be in accordance with Islam, too. Do not be shy about telling this to
every Muslim. The dua, the supplication, the prayer, is to turn to and beg
from Almighty Allah. There is no other moment that a person is closer to
Allah than when he is making dua. That is something that Almighty Allah
likes the best, so He would not leave His servant in sadness or disappoint
him. He will grant His servant whatever the servant wants in plenty. Do
not be unaware of this. When you make dua, say the dua verses of the Qur’an
instead of your own words. Read these duas sincerely and remember us in
your prayers, too.

Al-Berâ bin Azib RA reported
that The Prophet SAS said: “The duâ is the essence of worship,
for Almighty Allah said: ‘Make duâ, ask from Me, and I will
answer your prayers.’”
Abű Műsâ RA reported that
the Prophet SAS said: “The duâ is an army of the soldiers of
Allah. It can even change destiny.”
Ali RA reported that the
Prophet SAS said: “The duâ is the weapon of a believer, the
pillar of the religion, and the light of heavens and earth.”
Ibn Abbas RA reported that
the Prophet SAS said: “The duâ is the key for mercy; the wudu
is the key for the salat, and the salat is the key for
Paradise.”
Enes RA reported that the
Prophet SAS said: “If a person prays Fajr with congregation
then he sits while doing the remembrance of Allah until sun
rises and then performs two units of Ishraq prayer, he will be
given the rewards of a complete Hajj and Umrah.”
The Prophet SAS stated the
truth.

In the name of Allah the
Merciful, the Mercy Giving
It is reported in the
collection of Muslim that the Prophet said: "If a person
intends to read Qur'an and reads the following prayer first,
Almighty Allah grants him fifty-thousand rewards for each
letter he reads."
O Allah! You have revealed
it (the Qur'an) with truth, and it was revealed with truth.
O Allah! Increase my interest in Qur'an, make it a
light for my eyes and cure for my heart. O
Allah! Adorn my tongue with it and beautify my face with it,
make my body stronger with it. Grant me the opportunity to
read it when I pray to you at night and during the day.
Treat me along with the Prophet SAS and his righteous
family on the Day or Resurrection.
I intend to read Qur'an for
the sake of Allah, for the illumination of the graves of the
believers, for the spirit of Prophet Muhammed Mustafa (SAS) who
is the master of all prophets, the sun and the moon of the
messengers of Allah, for the eradication of Satan, for the
elimination of sins, for the acceptance of the repentance, for
the elevation of the degrees in Paradise, for the freedom from
Hell, for the continuation of the faith, and to reach the
Merciful. O the Most Merciful of mercy givers! I
seek your mercy. Praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the
Universe.

I seek refuge with Allah
against Satan
In the name of Allah the
Merciful, the Mercy Giving
All praise is due to
Allah, Who created the heavens and the earth and made the
darkness and the light; yet those who disbelieve set up
equals with their Lord. He it is Who created you from clay,
then He decreed a term; and there is a term named with Him;
still you doubt. And He is Allah in the
heavens and in the earth; He knows your secret (thoughts)
and your open (words), and He knows what you earn. (Qur’an
6:1-3)
He is Allah besides Whom
there is no god; the Knower of the unseen and the seen; He is
the Beneficent, the Merciful. He is Allah, besides Whom there
is no god; the King, the Holy, the Giver of peace, the Granter
of security, Guardian over all, the Mighty, the Supreme, the
Possessor of every greatness Glory be to Allah from what they
set up (with Him). He is Allah the Creator, the Maker, the
Fashioner; His are the most excellent names; whatever is in
the heavens and the earth declares His glory; and He is the
Mighty, the Wise. (Qur’an 59:22-24)

In the name of Allah, the
Merciful, the Mercy Giving
Surah Yasin (revealed in
Makkah, 83 verses)
[36.1] Ya Seen.
[36.2] I swear by the Quran full of wisdom
[36.3] Most surely you are one of the apostles
[36.4] On a right way.
[36.5] A revelation of the Mighty, the Merciful.
[36.6] That you may warn a people whose fathers were not
warned, so they are heedless.
[36.7] Certainly the word has proved true of most of
them, so they do not believe.
[36.8] Surely We have placed chains on their necks, and
these reach up to their chins, so they have their heads raised
aloft.
[36.9] And We have made before them a barrier and a
barrier behind them, then We have covered them over so that they
do not see.
[36.10] And it is alike to them whether you warn them or
warn them not: they do not believe.
[36.11] You can only warn him who follows the reminder
and fears the Beneficent God in secret; so announce to him
forgiveness and an honorable reward.
[36.12] Surely We give life to the dead, and We write
down what they have sent before and their footprints, and We
have recorded everything in a clear writing. |

[36.13] And set out to
them an example of the people of the town, when the messengers
came to it.
[36.14] When We
sent to them two, they rejected both of them, then We
strengthened (them) with a third, so they said: Surely we are
messengers to you.
[36.15] They said: You are naught but mortals like
ourselves, nor has the Beneficent God revealed anything; you
only lie.
[36.16] They said: Our Lord knows that we are most surely
messengers to you.
[36.17] And nothing devolves on us but a clear
deliverance (of the message).
[36.18] They said: Surely we augur evil from you; if you
do not desist, we will certainly stone you, and there shall
certainly afflict vou a painful chastisement from us.
[36.19] They said: Your evil fortune is with you; what!
if you are reminded! Nay, you are an extravagant people.
[36.20] And from the remote part of the city there came a
man running, he said: O my people! follow the messengers;
[36.21] Follow him who does not ask you for reward, and
they are the followers of the right course;
[36.22] And what reason have I that I should not serve
Him Who brought me into existence? And to Him you shall be
brought back;
[36.23] What! shall I take besides Him gods whose
intercession, If the Beneficent God should desire to afflict me
with a harm, shall not avail me aught, nor shall they be able to
deliver me?
[36.24] In that case I shall most surely be in clear
error:
[36.25] Surely I believe in your Lord, therefore hear me.
[36.26] It was said: Enter the garden. He said: O would
that my people had known |

[36.27] Of that on
account of which my Lord has forgiven me and made me of the
honored ones!
[36.28] And We did not send down upon his people after
him any hosts from heaven, nor do We ever send down.
[36.29] It was naught but a single cry, and lo! They were
still.
[36.30] Alas for the servants! There comes not to them an
apostle but they mock at him.
[36.31] Do they not consider how many of the generations
have We destroyed before them, because they do not turn to them?
[36.32] And all of them shall surely be brought before
Us.
[36.33] And a sign to them is the dead earth: We give
life to it and bring forth from it grain SQ they eat of it.
[36.34] And We make therein gardens of palms and
grapevines and We make springs to flow forth in it,
[36.35] That they may eat of the fruit thereof, and their
hands did not make it; will they not then be grateful?
[36.36] Glory be to Him Who created pairs of all things,
of what the earth grows, and of their kind and of what they do
not know.
[36.37] And a sign to them is the night: We draw forth
from it the day, then lo! They are in the dark;
[36.38] And the sun runs on to a term appointed for it;
that is the ordinance of the Mighty, the Knowing.
[36.39] And (as for) the moon, We have ordained for it
stages till it becomes again as an old dry palm branch.
[36.40] Neither is it allowable to the sun that it should
overtake the moon, nor can the night outstrip the day; and all
float on in a sphere. |

[36.41] And a sign to
them is that We bear their offspring in the laden ship.
[36.42] And We have created for them the like of it, what
they will ride on.
[36.43] And if We please, We can drown them, then there
shall be no succorer for them, nor shall they be rescued
[36.44] But (by) mercy from Us and for enjoyment till a
time.
[36.45] And when it is said to them: Guard against what
is before you and what is behind you, that mercy may be had on
you.
[36.46] And there comes not to them a communication of
the communications of their Lord but they turn aside from it.
[36.47] And when it is said to them: Spend out of what
Allah has given you, those who disbelieve say to those who
believe: Shall we feed him whom, if Allah please, He could feed?
You are in naught but clear error.
[36.48] And they say: When will this threat come to pass,
if you are truthful?
[36.49] They wait not for aught but a single cry which
will overtake them while they yet contend with one another.
[36.50] So they shall not be able to make a bequest, nor
shall they return to their families.
[36.51] And the trumpet shall be blown, when lo ! from
their graves they shall hasten on to their Lord.
[36.52] They shall say: O woe to us! who has raised us up
from our sleeping-place? This is what the Beneficent God
promised and the apostles told the truth.
[36.53] There would be naught but a single cry, when lo !
they shall all be brought before Us;
[36.54] So this day no soul shall be dealt with unjustly
in the least; and you shall not be rewarded aught but that which
you did. |

[36.55] Surely the
dwellers of the garden shall on that day be in an occupation
quite happy.
[36.56] They and their wives shall be in shades,
reclining on raised couches.
[36.57] They shall have fruits therein, and they shall
have whatever they desire.
[36.58] Peace: a word from a Merciful Lord.
[36.59] And get aside today, O guilty ones!
[36.60] Did I not charge you, O children of Adam ! that
you should not serve the Shaitan? Surely he is your open enemy,
[36.61] And that you should serve Me; this is the right
way.
[36.62] And certainly he led astray numerous people from
among you. What! could you not then understand?
[36.63] This is the hell with which you were threatened.
[36.64] Enter into it this day because you disbelieved.
[36.65] On that day We will set a seal upon their mouths,
and their hands shall speak to Us, and their feet shall bear
witness of what they earned.
[36.66] And if We please We would certainly put out their
eyes, then they would run about groping for the way, but how
should they see?
[36.67] And if We please We would surely transform them
in their place, then they would not be able to go on, nor will
they return.
[36.68] And whomsoever We cause to live long, We reduce
(him) to an abject state in constitution; do they not then
understand?
[36.69] And We have not taught him poetry, nor is it meet
for him; it is nothing but a reminder and a plain Quran,
[36.70] That it may warn him who would have life, and
(that) the word may prove true against the unbelievers.

[36.71] Do they not see
that We have created cattle for them, out of what Our hands have
wrought, so they are their masters?
[36.72] And We have subjected them to them, so some of
them they have to ride upon, and some of them they eat.
[36.73] And therein they have advantages and drinks; will
they not then be grateful?
[36.74] And they have taken gods besides Allah that they
may be helped.
[36.75] (But) they shall not be able to assist them, and
they shall be a host brought up before them.
[36.76] Therefore let not their speech grieve you; surely
We know what they do in secret and what they do openly.
[36.77] Does not man see that We have created him from
the small seed? Then lo! he is an open disputant.
[36.78] And he strikes out a likeness for Us and forgets
his own creation. Says he: Who will give life to the bones when
they are rotten?
[36.79] Say: He will give life to them Who brought them
into existence at first, and He is cognizant of all creation
[36.80] He Who has made for you the fire (to burn) from
the green tree, so that with it you kindle (fire).
[36.81] Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth
able to create the like of them? Yea! and He is the Creator (of
all), the Knower.
[36.82] His command, when He intends anything, is only to
say to it: Be, so it is.
[36.83] Therefore glory be to Him in Whose hand is the
kingdom of all things, and to Him you shall be brought back. |

In the name of Allah, the
merciful, The Mercy Giving
[33.56]
Surely Allah and His angels bless the Prophet; O you who
believe! Call for (Divine) blessings on him and salute him
with a (becoming) salutation.
O Allah! Bless our beloved
master Muhammed Mustafa SAS with perfect salât and complete
peace and greetings. He is such a personage with whom the knots
are untied; the troubles and hardship, eased; the needs, met;
the desires and good results, achieved. Rain is
sought for his sake. May the peace and blessings be on him, on
his family and on his companions for every moment and for every
breath as many as the number of Your creation that is known to
You.

(25 times astaghfirullah--I
seek forgiveness from Allah)
I seek forgiveness from
Allah Who is the Most High, the Most Generous, there no deity
except Him, the Living and Eternal. We turn to Him for
forgiveness. I turn to him and seek forgiveness
and guidance for us from Him because He is the One Who accepts
repentance and He is the most merciful. I seek forgiveness as
a servant who has wronged himself, who is unable to give death
or life or to gather mankind as in the day of resurrection.
O Allah! You are my Lord.
There is no deity except You. You created me. I
am your servant, and I am keeping my promise to You as much as
I can. I seek refuge with You against evil deeds
that I have committed. As I express my gratitude for the
blessings on me, I admit my wrong deeds and shortcomings.
Forgive me my wrong deeds because there is none who can
forgive sins but You.
O Allah! You are the King,
there is no deity beside You. I glorify You. I
praise You. You are my Lord, and I am your
servant. I have wronged myself. I admit my
faults. Forgive me all of my sins because there is none who can
forgive sins but You.

with your call; I am at your order. All goodness is in Your
hands. The evil is not with You. I exist with You and shall
return to You. You are blessed and High. We
turn to you in repentance and seek forgiveness.
O Allah! Cleanse my faults
with heavenly waters. Cleanse my heart from the faults as the
white cloth is cleaned from dirt. Keep me away
from faults as the east and west are apart.
There is no deity except
Allah who has no partners; He is unique. Sovereignty and
praise belong to Him. He gives life and takes away life.
He has power for all things.
I glorify Allah who has no
faults or insufficiencies. I praise Allah. There
is no deity but Allah. Allah is the Greatest.
There is no power or force except with Almighty Allah, the Most
High.

praise Allah and ask forgiveness from Him.
I glorify Allah with praise
in the number of His creation, His consent, in the weight of
His throne, and in the number of pens that write His words. I
glorify Allah in the number of His creation in the heaven.
I glorify Allah in the number of His creation on
earth. I glorify Allah in the number of His creation between
the two. I glorify Allah in the number of
creatures that He has created. I exult Allah in the same
amount. I praise Allah in the same amount. I say
"There is no deity except Him" in the same number. I also say
"there is no power or force except with Allah" in the same
amount.
Almighty Allah stated:
In the name of Allah, the
Merciful, the Mercy Giving
"The most beautiful names
belong to Allah. You make dua, appeal to Him with these
names." (Qur'an 7:180)
The Prophet SAS said:
"Verily, Allah has ninety-nine names. Whoever counts them
will enter
Paradise."

His
blessings are pervasive. There is no deity other than Him.
O Allah!
Nothing resembles You or Your attributes. Your signs indicate
Your oneness; Your creation bears witness for Your Lordship.
You are one and only without insufficiency. You exist without
any cause. O Allah! You are described with Your goodness.
Granting goods for the servants is Your attribute. You are
described with no limitations. You are the First; there is no
beginning to your existence. You are the everlasting, the
generous and the Mercy Giving with no end.
You
encompass all with Your mercy and Knowledge. You forgave the
sins of the sinners and the disobedient with Your generosity,
grace, and leniency.
O the
most Forbearing! O the Hearer and the Seer Allah! There is none
to resemble You! Allah suffices for us! He is an excellent
proxy, an excellent friend, and an excellent helper.

This
dua is made when one goes to bed and gets up.
Praise is
due to Allah Who gives us death and life after death and to Whom
is our return. We have reached the morning. As we and the
universe belong to Allah, it has become the morning. The
greatness, the ability to create and to manage, the night and
the day and everything in them belong to Allah. He is one with
no partner.
We have
reached the morning with our Islamic nature, with our sincere
words, in the religion of Prophet Muhammed (may peace and
prayers be on him) and as members of the nation of our father
Prophet
Ibrahim
AS.
O Allah! You
are the most merciful of all. For the sake of Your mercy, make
the beginning of our day a prayer; the middle, salvation; and
the latter part, our success.
O Allah! I
seek goodness from You for today and for the days to come. I
seek refuge with You against the evil of today and of the days
to come.
O my Lord! I
seek refuge with you against laziness and the problems of old
age. I seek refuge with You against the punishment in Hell and
the tortures of the grave. There is no deity other than You. I
glorify You—you have no imperfections. Verily I have wronged
myself for so long. |

O Allah!
I want the best of this morning and the evening, the destiny and
its execution, at home and outside, in this life and in the
hereafter, and that of what is written by the pen of destiny.
I seek
refuge with Allah against the evil of this morning and the
evening, the destiny and its execution, at home and outside, in
this life and in the hereafter, and that of what is written by
the pen of destiny.
We
believe in Allah, we trust in Him, and we leave our affairs to
Him. There is no power or force except with Allah.
In the name
of Allah the merciful the Mercy giving.
O Allah! I seek refuge with
you from the torments of Hell, the torments of the grave, the
mischief of the life and death, and the mischief of the
Masih-al-Dajjal.
O Allah!
Make death and what follows death blessed for us (3 times).
O Allah!
Alleviate the difficulties of the death for us and do not punish
us after death (3 times). |
