In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate

Praise be to God Who brought into being what is in the heavens and earth by His command. They who have believed in God and His signs, these are they who shall be brought before God.

O my God! I bear witness before You in this my station that You are God, there is no God but You, alone with no partner. You have ever been without the existence of anything, and You will ever continue to be even as You were. Nothing exists at Your level.

How then can I call upon You, O my God, and remember You, O my Lord, when my very existence and its traces are a sin having no existence before You? I ask Your forgiveness and turn to You in repentance, and I beseech You by the right of Muhammad and his family to bless Muhammad and his family as befits You, and to forgive us through Your grace and deliver us from every care through Your kindness, for I see no reliever other than You and no deliverer besides You.

O my God! If my prayer through Your kindness has not been raised up to You, then I turn to You through the countenance of Muhammad and his family—Your blessings be upon them—and I beseech You of Your bounty as befits You. Verily You are God, the Generous, the All-Bestowing. Glory be to God above what they describe, and peace be upon the Messengers, and praise be to God, the Lord of the worlds.
