I seek refuge from the cursed Satan. In the name of Allah, profoundly Merciful, the constantly Merciful.
{[All] praise is [due] to Allah, Lord of the worlds. The Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful, Sovereign of the Day of Recompense. It is You we worship and You we ask for help. Guide us to the straight path – The path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have evoked [Your] anger or of those who are astray.} (Quran 1)
{Alif, Lam, Meem. This is the Book about which there is no doubt, a guidance for those conscious of Allah – Who believe in the unseen, establish prayer, and spend out of what We have provided for them, And who believe in what has been revealed to you, [O Muhammad], and what was revealed before you, and of the Hereafter they are certain [in faith]. Those are upon [right] guidance from their Lord, and it is those who are the successful.} (2:1-5)
{Allah – there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission?
He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills. His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not. And He is the Most High, the Most Great.
There shall be no compulsion in [acceptance of] the religion. The right course has become clear from the wrong. So whoever disbelieves in Taghut and believes in Allah has grasped the most trustworthy handhold with no break in it. And Allah is Hearing and Knowing.
Allah is the ally of those who believe. He brings them out from darknesses into the light. And those who disbelieve – their allies are Taghut. They take them out of the light into darknesses. Those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide eternally therein.} (2:255-257)
{To Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth. Whether you show what is within yourselves or conceal it, Allah will bring you to account for it. Then He will forgive whom He wills and punish whom He wills, and Allah is over all things competent.
The Messenger has believed in what was revealed to him from his Lord, and [so have] the believers. All of them have believed in Allah and His angels and His books and His messengers, [saying], “We make no distinction between any of His messengers.” And they say, “We hear and we obey. [We seek] Your forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the [final] destination.”
Allah does not charge a soul except [with that within] its capacity. It will have [the consequence of] what [good] it has gained, and it will bear [the consequence of] what [evil] it has earned. “Our Lord, do not impose blame upon us if we have forgotten or erred. Our Lord, and lay not upon us a burden like that which You laid upon those before us. Our Lord, and burden us not with that which we have no ability to bear. And pardon us; and forgive us; and have mercy upon us. You are our protector, so give us victory over the disbelieving people.”} (2:284-286)
{Say, “He is Allah, [who is] One, Allah, the Eternal Refuge. He neither begets nor is born, Nor is there to Him any equivalent.”} (112)
{Say, “I seek refuge in the Lord of daybreak. From the evil of that which He created. And from the evil of darkness when it settles. And from the evil of the blowers in knots. And from the evil of an envier when he envies.} (113)
{Say, “I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind, The Sovereign of mankind. The God of mankind, From the evil of the retreating whisperer – Who whispers [evil] into the breasts of mankind – From among the jinn and mankind.} (114)
The Du’as
We have risen this morning/evening and sovereignty is all Allah’s, praise due to Allah alone, He has no partner. There is no god but Him unto Him is the return.
We have risen this morning/evening on the innate nature of Islam, on the word of sincerity, and on the deed (way of life) of our Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), and on the way of our forefather Ibrahim who was true in faith and was not an idolater.
O Allah! I enter this morning/evening with the blessing, wellbeing, and protection all of which you have bestowed upon me. Complete your blessing, the wellbeing, and your protection, in this life and the hereafter.
O Allah, whatever grace has been my share this morning/evening, or the share of any of your creation is from You alone, You are one without partner. So for you is all praise and unto you all thanks.
O my Lord! All praise is due to You as is befitting to Your glorious presence and Your great Sovereignty.
I have accepted Allah as my Lord, Islam as my way of life, and Muhammad (peace be upon him) as a messenger and Prophet.
How perfect and exalted Allah is and I praise Him by the number of His creation and the pleasure of His self and by the weight of His throne, and the ink to record His words and signs.
O Allah! We seek refuge from associating anything other with you while we know it, and we seek repentance for associating something other with You while we don’t know it.
I seek refuge in Allah’s perfect words from the evil of that which He created.
O Allah! I seek Your refuge from worries and sadness, and I seek Your refuge from laziness, and I seek Your refuge from cowardice and miserliness, and I seek refuge in You from the harshness of debt and from being overpowered by men.
O Allah! I seek Your refuge from disbelief and poverty, and I seek Your refuge from the punishment of the grave, there is no God but You.
O Allah! Grant me safety and health in my body. O Allah! Grant me safety and health in my hearing. O Allah! Grant me safety and health in my sight. There is no God besides You.
O Allah! You are my Lord, there is no God but You. You created me and I am Your slave. And I uphold Your pledge and promise to the best of my abilities. I seek Your protection from evil of that which I have committed. I acknowledge Your blessing upon me and I acknowledge my sin. So forgive me for none can forgive sins except You.
O Allah! Exalt and have mercy on Muhammad, Your servant, Your Prophet and Your messenger, the unlettered Prophet, and upon his family and companions and grant them peace.
{Your Lord, the Lord of glory, is far above they attribute to Him and peace be upon the messengers and praise be to Allah the Lord of the worlds.}
