بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ۔
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
اَللّٰهُمَّ اِنِّيْ اَتَوَجَّهُ اِلَيْكَ بِهِمْ، وَ اَتَوَسَّلُ اِلَيْكَ بِحَقِّهِمُ الْعَظِیْمِ، الَّذِيْ لَا يَعْلَمُ كُنْهَهٗ سِوَاكَ، وَ بِحَقِّ مَنْ حَقُّهٗ عِنْدَكَ عَظِيْمٌ، وَ بِاَسْمَائِكَ الْحُسْنٰى وَ كَلِمَاتِكَ التَّامَّاتِ الَّتِيْ اَمَرْتَنِيْ اَنْ اَدْعُوَكَ بِهَا، وَ اَسْاَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْعَظِيْمِ الَّذِيْ اَمَرْتَ اِبْرَاهِيْمَ - - اَنْ يَدْعُوَ بِهِ الطَّيْرَ فَاَجَابَتْهُ۔
O God, I turn to You through the mediation of Muhammad and Progeny of Muhammad and I adjure by that right of theirs, whose reality is not known to anyone, except You. And I adjure by the rights of those, whose right is great in your view and I adjure by your beautiful names and the perfect words through which You have commanded us to supplicate. And I adjure You by that name through which You commanded Ibrahim Khaleel to call the dead birds.
وَ بِاسْمِكَ الْعَظِيْمِ الَّذِيْ قُلْتَ لِلنَّارِكُوْنِيْ بَرْدًا وَ سَلَامًا عَلٰى‏ اِبْراهِيْمَ فَكَانَتْ، وَ بِاَحَبِّ اَسْمَائِكَ اِلَيْكَ، وَ اَشْرَفِهَا عِنْدَكَ، وَ اَعْظَمِهَا لَدَيْكَ وَ اَسْرَعِهَا اِجَابَةً، وَ اَنْجَحِهَا طَلِبَةً، وَ بِمَا اَنْتَ اَهْلُهٗ وَ مُسْتَحِقُّهٗ وَ مُسْتَوْجِبُهٗ۔
And by that great name, which You blew on fire and made it cool and safe. And by your most loved, noble and great names, through which supplication is accepted immediately and needs are fulfilled and which You are deserving of and owner of.
وَ اَتَوَسَّلُ اِلَيْكَ، وَ اَرْغَبُ اِلَيْكَ، وَ اَتَصَدَّقُ مِنْكَ، وَ اَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَ اَسْتَمْنِحُكَ، وَ اَتَضَرَّعُ اِلَيْكَ، وَ اَخْضَعُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ، وَ اَخْشَعُ لَكَ وَ اُقِرُّ لَكَ بِسُوْءِ صَنِيْعَتِي، وَ اَتَمَلَّقُكَ وَ اُلِحُّ عَلَيْكَ۔
I seek mediation to You, I am attentive to You and I seek your help. And I seek bestowal and favor; and I am a petitioner; and I am humble and sincere before You, and I confess to my evil deeds and I insist and persist before You.
وَ اَسْاَلُكَ بِكُتُبِكَ الَّتِيْ اَنْزَلْتَهَا عَلٰى اَنْبِيَائِكَ وَ رُسُلِكَ، صَلَوَاتُكَ عَلَيْهِمْ اَجْمَعِيْنَ، مِنَ التَّوْرَاةِ وَ الْاِنْجِيْلِ وَ الْقُرْآنِ الْعَظِيْمِ، مِنْ اَوَّلِهَا اِلٰى آخِرِهَا، فَاِنَّ فِيْهَا اسْمَكَ الْاَعْظَمَ، وَ بِمَا فِيْهَا مِنْ اَسْمَائِكَ الْعُظْمٰى اَتَقَرَّبُ اِلَيْكَ، وَ اَسْاَلُكَ اَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلٰى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اٰلِهٖ، وَ اَنْ تُفَرِّجَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اٰلِهٖ وَ تَجْعَلَ فَرَجِيْ مَقْرُوْنًا بِفَرَجِهِمْ، (وَ تُقَدِّمَهُمْ فِيْ كُلِّ خَيْرٍ) وَ تَبْدَاَ بِهِمْ فِيْهِ، وَ تَفْتَحَ اَبْوَابَ السَّمَاءِ لِدُعَائِيْ فِيْ هٰذَا الْيَوْمِ، وَ تَاْذَنَ فِيْ هٰذَا الْيَوْمِ وَ هٰذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ بِفَرَجِيْ، وَ اِعْطَائِيْ سُؤْلِيْ وَ اَمَلِیْ فِيْ الدُّنْيَا وَ الْاٰخِرَةِ، فَقَدْ مَسَّنِيَ الْفَقْرُ، وَ نَالَنِي الضُّرُّ، وَ سَلَّمَتْنِي الْخَصَاصَةُ وَ اَلْجَاَتْنِيْ الْحَاجَةُ، وَ تَوَسَّمْتُ بِالذِّلَّةِ، وَ غَلَبَتْنِي الْمَسْكَنَةُ، وَ حَقَّتْ عَلَيَّ الْكَلِمَةُ، وَ اَحَاطَتْ بِيَ الْخَطِيْئَةُ، وَ هٰذَا الْوَقْتُ الَّذِيْ وَعَدْتَ اَوْلِيَاءَكَ فِيْهِ الْاِجَابَةَ۔
O God, I adjure by your Books that You revealed on the prophets and messengers (your blessings and mercy be on them all). That is Taurat, Injeel and the great Quran from its beginning till its end. As it contains your great name and your beautiful names, through which I seek your proximity. I beseech You to bless Muhammad and progeny of Muhammad and remove their grief and sorrow and through their intercession, remove my grief and sorrow as well, and keep them at the forefront in every good, and begin this only with them and today open the gates of heavens for my supplications and today and tonight command peace for me and fulfillment of all my demands as poverty has besieged me and difficulties surround me. Needs have turned me over to You and needs have made me a refugee. Humiliation has targeted and poverty had overpowered, and your word is proved true and mistakes have surrounded me. This is the time, when You promised acceptance to your friends.
فَصَلِّ عَلٰى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اٰلِهٖ، وَ امْسَحْ مَا بِيْ بِيَمِيْنِكَ الشَّافِيَةِ، وَ انْظُرْ اِلَيَّ بِعَيْنِكَ الرَّاحِمَةِ، وَ اَدْخِلْنِيْ فِيْ رَحْمَتِكَ الْوَاسِعَةِ، وَ اَقْبِلْ اِلَيَّ بِوَجْهِكَ الَّذِيْ اِذَا اَقْبَلْتَ بِهٖ عَلٰى اَسِيْرٍ فَكَكْتَهٗ، وَ عَلٰى ضَالٍّ هَدَيْتَهٗ، وَ عَلٰى جَائِزٍ اَدَّيْتَهٗ وَ عَلٰى فَقِیْرٍ اَغْنَيْتَهٗ، وَ عَلٰى ضَعِيْفٍ قَوَّيْتَهٗ، وَ عَلٰى خَائِفٍ اٰمَنْتَهٗ، وَ لَا تُخْلِنِيْ لِقَاءَ عَدُوِّكَ وَ عَدُوِّيْ، يَا ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَ الْاِكْرَامِ۔
So, bless Muhammad and progeny of Muhammad and remove my difficulties through your curative hands and look upon me with mercy and admit me in your wide mercy. Turn your towards me, which if it is turned to the prisoner, he is freed. And if it is turned to the misguided, he becomes guided. And if it is turned to the perplexed, he is freed from perplexity. And if it is turned to the destitute, he becomes affluent. If it is turned to the weak, he becomes strong. If it is turned to the fearful, he is granted security. O God, allow my and your enemy to meet me, O owner of might and majesty.
يَا مَنْ لَا يَعْلَمُ كَيْفَ هُوَ، وَ حَيْثُ هُوَ وَ قُدْرَتَهٗ اِلَّا هُوَ، يَا مَنْ سَدَّ الْهَوَاءَ بِالسَّمَاءِ، وَ كَبَسَ الْاَرْضَ عَلَى الْمَاءِ، وَ اخْتَارَ لِنَفْسِهٖ اَحْسَنَ الْاَسْمَاءِ۔
O One, whose reality, position and power is not known to anyone, except Him. O One, who has confined the atmosphere by the sky and placed the earth on water and chose the best names for Himself.
يَا مَنْ سَمّٰى نَفْسَهٗ بِالْاِسْمِ الَّذِيْ بِهٖ تَقْضِيْ حَاجَةَ كُلِّ طَالِبٍ يَدْعُوْهُ بِهٖ۔
O that God, who adopted for Himself every that name through which He fulfills the needs of all those, who pray through them.
وَ اَسْاَلُكَ بِذٰلِكَ الْاِسْمِ، فَلَا شَفِيْعَ اَقْوٰى لِيْ مِنْهُ، وَ بِحَقِّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ (اَسْاَلُكَ) اَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلٰى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَ اَنْ تَقْضِيَ لِيْ حَوَائِجِيْ، وَ تُسْمِعَ مُحَمَّدًا وَ عَلِيًّا وَ فَاطِمَةَ، وَ الْحَسَنَ وَ الْحُسَيْنَ وَ عَلِيًّا وَ مُحَمَّدًا، وَ جَعْفَرًا وَ مُوسٰى، وَ عَلِيًّا وَ مُحَمَّدًا وَ عَلِيًّا، وَ الْحَسَنَ وَ الْحُجَّةَ - صَلَوَاتُكَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَ بَرَكَاتُكَ وَ رَحْمَتُكَ – صَوْتِيْ، فَيَشْفَعُوْا لِيْ اِلَيْكَ وَ تُشَفِّعَهُمْ فِيَّ، وَ لَا تَرُدَّنِيْ خَائِبًا، بِحَقِّ لَا اِلٰهَ اِلَّا اَنْتَ، وَ بِحَقِّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، صَلِّ عَلٰی مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَ افْعَلْ بِيْ ’’كَذَا وَ كَذَا‘‘ يَا كَرِيْمُ۔
I beseech You through the mediation of your names as I have no intercessor stronger than this. And I adjure You by the right of Muhammad and progeny of Muhammad that You bless Muhammad and progeny of Muhammad and fulfill all my pleas. And make my plea reach upto His Eminence Muhammad, Ali, Fatima, Hasan, Husain, Ali, Muhammad, Ja’far, Musa, Ali, Muhammad, Ali, Hasan and Hujjat Qaim [your blessings and mercy be on them all], so that they may be able to recommend my case in your court and You allow them to intercede for me. And don’t turn me away in despair, I adjure You by ‘there is no god, except Allah’ and I adjure You by Muhammad and progeny of Muhammad, conduct with me ‘as follows’, O merciful God.
