DUA AFTER EVERY OBLIGATORY PRAYERS (2)

You may also say the following supplicatory prayer after all obligatory prayers in Ramadan:

يَا عَلِيُّ يَا عَظِيْمُ،

O Most High! O Allgreat!

يَا غَفُوْرُ يَا رَحِيْمُ،

O All-forgiving! O All-merciful!

اَنْتَ الرَّبُّ الْعَظِيْمُ

You are the All-great Lord

الَّذِيْ لَيْسَ كَمِثْلِهِ شَيْءٌ

like Whom there is nothing,

وَهُوَ السَّمِيْعُ الْبَصِيْرُ،

and He is the Allhearing, the All-aware.

وَهٰذَا شَهْرٌ عَظَّمْتَهُ وَكَرَّمْتَهُ،

This is a month that You have glorified, ennobled,

وَشَرَّفْتَهُ وَفَضَّلْتَهُ عَلَى الشُّهُوْرِ،

honored, and preferred to the other months.

وَهُوَ الشَّهْرُ الَّذِيْ فَرَضْتَ صِيَامَهُ عَلَيَّ،

It is the month that You imposed upon me to observe fasting in it.

وَهُوَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ، الَّذِيْ اَنْزَلْتَ فِيْهِ الْقُرْاٰنَ،

It is the month of Ramadan during which You revealed the Qur'an

هُدًى لِّلنَّاسِ وَبَيِّنَاتٍ مِنَ الْهُدٰى وَالْفُرْقَانِ،

as guidance for people, clear proofs on true guidance, and distinction (between the right and the wrong).

وَجَعَلْتَ فِيْهِ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ،

You decided the Grand Night to be in it

وَجَعَلْتَهَا خَيْرًا مِّنْ اَلْفِ شَهْرٍ،

and You have decided it to be more favorable that one thousand months.

فَيَا ذَا الْمَنِّ وَلَا يُمَنُّ عَلَيْكَ،

So, O Lord of graces! None can ever do favor to You!

مُنَّ عَلَيَّ بِفَكَاكِ رَقَبَتِيْ مِنَ النَّارِ فِيْمَنْ تَمُنُّ عَلَيْهِ،

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

and allow me to enter Paradise,

بِرَحْمَتِكَ يَا اَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِيْنَ ۔

on account of Your mercy. O most Merciful of all those who show mercy!
