O Allah, I ask You by the sanctity of this fresh, radiant garden of plantings, and by the sanctity of what it contains of the fragrant scent of Your beloved, the pure, the clean of breath, and by the sanctity of the two noble masters before You, our master al-Khidr ²⁸ and Ilyas ²⁹, and by the sanctity of the two noble uncles of Your Prophet, our master Hamza ³⁰ and our master al-Abbas ³¹, and by the sanctity of every servant of two purities ³² (two purities: thus in the authentic hadith) who is not regarded, dusty, disheveled of head, that You erase from my heart, with the lights of Your gnosis, the darkness of doubt and confusion, and that You cause to flow upon my tongue the subtleties of meanings, the delicate allusions, and the restriction of derivation, and that I may ascend thereby through the stages of Ahmadine ³³ praises until I become thereby among the inspired and intelligent, and be adorned with the special qualities of the brought-near, the pure, by Your grace and generosity, O Lord of people, King of people, God of people. And I ask You, O Allah, the asking of the people of need and supplication, and I knock at the door of Your generosity with the knock of those for whom You have appointed the greatest share and the most complete stock in boldness toward You, and I flatter You with the flattery of the people of asceticism and contentment, and I call upon You with the call of the people of the Sunnah and the Community ³⁴, and I hope in You with the hope of the people of return to You at every moment and hour, that You bless Your Prophet, accepted of intercession, whom You made obedience to him obedience, and You advanced him in pre-eternity, so he had precedence over every possessor of foot, and You designated him in the first determination ³⁵ with the most perfect station, and You distinguished him with the perfection of order, and You made him the brick of completion ³⁶ and the bride of the Abode of Peace ³⁷; so You placed him at the distance of two bow-lengths ³⁸ in the highest station, the Imam of the gathering of intimacy, the orator of the Holy Presence ³⁹, sent to the world of jinn and humans, the manifestation of the essence of necessary existence ⁴⁰ the transcendent, and the manifestation of the possibility of the most pure beauty ⁴¹, (4) Muhammad of the Beautiful ⁴², and Ahmad of the Majestic ⁴³, the Unique of Beauty, the Praised of Perfection; a blessing of the people of solicitude, in the Presence of Sainthood ⁴⁴. And grant him peace, O Allah, the peace of the people of speciality, in the Presence of Lordship. And I seek intercession through him to You, O my God, in distance from every heedless one. My God, I ask of You closeness to You such that I may be thereby among those who rely on You and are beloved to You. My God, I have stretched out to You the hand of need and poverty, and I have come to You in a state of lowliness and brokenness, and I have stood at the door and sought intercession through the beloved ones, so answer my request and do not disappoint my hopes. My God, give me glad tidings from You of the glad tidings of acceptance, of attaining the desired goal, and make me hear, with purity, the call of fidelity—far be it from You to disappoint hopes and expectations, and to shame one who seeks refuge in You. My God, Your generosity is bestowed upon the askers, and Your favor is upon the disobedient and the obedient; You give without being asked, so how about after requesting favor? My God, sins have shamed me, and faults have veiled me, so how can I attain deliverance and the station of distinction? My God, Your generosity guided me to ask, and modesty before You returned me to propriety, so I am perplexed between describing generosity and the etiquettes of witnessing. My God, look upon me with a look of solicitude, and grant me success in the paths of guidance, and clothe me with the robe of sainthood, and protect me thereafter from misguidance. My God, let me taste the sweetness of union, and permit me into the Presence of Beauty, and prevent me from the might of Majesty, and realize me with the reality of Perfection. My God, fill my heart with gnosis, and do not veil me by it from witnessing You, and make my concern for You a single concern. My God, You made my existence from clinging clay ⁴⁵, and called me to the stations, and empowered over me lust and desire, and demanded of me the reality of piety, so help me with what I have intended, and manage me among those You have managed. My God, You are the One who chose, and You are the One who granted success and guided, so grant me success with Your success, and guide me to the straightness of Your path. My God, how can I reach while my incapacity is essential, and how can I not reach while You are the Possessor of generosity and gifts? My God, Your secret is a secret in the worlds, and Your light has disabled eyes from vision, and Your encompassing closeness is closer to me than myself, and Your absence has made me witness Your absence from me, so lift the veil for me, O He who has no veil. My God, You are the First before every first, and the Last after every last, and the Manifest above every manifest, and the Hidden beneath every hidden, and You encompass all beings, while directions do not encompass You, and You have manifested in various forms of manifestation, and all languages have spoken of Your transcendence, and I have whispered to You, so whispered conversation with You has become sweet for me, and through You the wild beasts and birds have become familiar, and the people of deserts and seas have prostrated, nay, the people of the heavens and the earth, in their length and breadth. So how great is the loss of one who is heedless of Your remembrance, and how great is the misery of one whom You have not inspired to thank You. My God, do not make me among the heedless and negligent, and do not write me among the abandoned, and make me among the knowing, the acting, the perfect, the perfecters. My God, if You did not intend acceptance, You would not have taught me to ask; and if You did not will giving, You would not have unleashed speech. So answer, O Allah, the prayer, and hasten the response, and direct this arrow to the target of hitting the mark. My God, release the captivity of souls, and save me from misery, and admit me into the Presence of Favor with security, and witness in the place of witnessing of Beneficence with beneficence, me and all the beloved ones and brothers and relatives (5).

and the family and neighbors, generally with well-being forever through the perpetuity of the supply ⁴⁶, and peace be upon the messengers, and praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds. O Allah, I know that You have a subtle kindness ⁴⁷ which, when it blows upon a patient of heedlessness, heals him; and that You have breezes of affection which, when directed to a captive of passion, release him; and that You have a care which, when it observes a drowning person in the sea of misguidance, saves him; and that You have a mercy which, when it takes the hand of a wretched person, makes him happy; and that You have subtle generosities which, when stratagems become narrow for a sinner, encompass him. So grant me, my God, from Your subtle kindness a breath by which You heal the illness of my heedlessness; and blow upon me from Your affection a breeze by which You release my captive from the passion of my desires; and observe me with a glance from Your care by which You save me from the sea of my misguidances; and give me from Your presence a mercy by which You change my wretchedness into happiness; and deal with me from Your generosity in a way that You provide me with repentance ⁴⁸ with sincerity of supplication; and make me worthy of knocking at Your door until my heart is connected to what is with You, and You raise my request to Your purpose, and You loosen my tongue with supplication and entreaty in seeking knowledge of You, and I take You as a refuge, and I raise my need to You, and I rely on You in all my states, O He in Whose hand are the treasuries of mercy and the keys of affairs. O Allah, O Allah, O Living, O Self-Subsisting ⁴⁹, open for me the treasuries of Your mercy and response, and do not close the doors of Your mercy before Your servant, and I have none to whom I can turn besides You, so do not return me disappointed from Your mercy nor from Your bounty, and do not hide from me the keys of mercy, and clothe me with the garment of infallibility ⁵⁰, and adorn me with the beauty of well-being, and cover me with the veils of might, and turn me about in the gardens of mercy, and spread out the abundant blessings, by Your bounty and generosity, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds. O Allah, send blessings and peace upon our master and lord Muhammad and upon the family of our master Muhammad, the flower of the gardens of opening ⁵¹ and the foundation of its structures, the setting of the jewels of revelation and the secret of its meanings, the bride of the throne of dominion and the head of its court, the clarifier of the paths of religion and the builder of its pillars, the companion of the presence of the Greatest King and his interpreter, the treasure of infallibility preserved in his secret and his public, the decisive sword of truth against the argument of every obstinate one with his proof, the delight of every time and the beauty of its age, the pupil of the eye of glory and the crown of its sovereignty, the comfort of every lover and the garden of his solace, the desire of every yearning one and the sea of his passion, the expanse of every lover and the paradise of his pleasure, the support of every emancipator and the inscription of his title, the introduction of the greeting of every knowledge and the tongue of its elucidation, the bearer of the banner of every and the knight of its field, the pole ⁵² of sovereignty from whose sleeves the musk-scented fragrance wafts, the gift of bounty that encompassed the servants with his beneficence, the path of happiness by which Allah saved every believer from the torment of hell and its fires. May Allah bless him and his family with a blessing that benefits the servant through his love for him and his faith, and makes him among the inhabitants of al-Baqi' ⁵³ and his neighbors, and gathers him under the shade of his banner with his offspring, family, and brothers, by Your bounty, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds. O Allah, I ask You, O my Master, by the right of his noble essence and by his high and lofty rank, and by his jewel hidden in the subtle consciences of the unseen, that You make me among those who attain his noble intercession and succeed, and make my foot firm on the path ⁵⁴ on the Day of Presentation and Passage, by Your mercy, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds. O Allah, by Your knowledge of the unseen and by Your power over creation, keep me alive as long as You know life is good for me, and cause me to die when You know death is good for me. And I ask You for fear of You in secret and in public, and the word of forbearance in anger and pleasure, and moderation in poverty and wealth. And I ask You for a bliss that never ends, and a coolness of eye that never ceases, and a pleasant life after death. And I ask You for the vision of Your face and the longing for Your meeting without any harmful adversity or misleading trial. Amen, amen, O Lord of the worlds. O Allah, send blessings and peace upon our master and lord Muhammad and upon the family of our master Muhammad, the beauty at which eyes are amazed, and with the light of whose love the eyelids are anointed.

O Allah, I ask You ⁷⁷, O my Master, by the sanctity of this noble Prophet, and by the majesty of his exalted rank, and by what transpired between You and him on the Night of the Ascension ⁷⁸ of conversation and speech, that You have mercy on us, accept our repentance, purify our limbs from every blameworthy trait, strike our souls with the whips of fear so that we return to You, and they be subdued by the deterrents of admonition at Your command and prohibition, look upon us with the eye of mercy, and treat us with every good that is with You. O All-Hearing, O All-Knowing, O Forbearing, O Generous, You are our Master, we have none besides You, and You are the Possessor of vast mercy and abundant grace. You are the Knower of our states and our ugly deeds, and we have knelt before You; so treat us, O our Master, with Your mercy, overlook us with Your bounty, and bestow upon us Your forgiveness and pardon. For our cattle are lost, our bellies are hungry, our land is black and dry, our houses are empty and ruined, while Your sky is full and Your treasuries are vast. So give us rain, a beneficial downpour that renews faith in our hearts, and it will not cease before a Generous One until He gives us drink. Our means to You is through our Prophet, whom You made a mercy for us. O my God, the sigh of the sun has burned our bodies, the heat of the earth has changed our condition, the sky has withheld its tears, and the cloud has withheld its drops, so it finds no rain for the thirsty. If that, O my Master, is due to the sins and errors we have committed, then send the water of Your pardon over what has been recorded and erase it. And if any of Your creatures has a claim against us, then treat him with Your bounty and satisfy him. O my God, our eyes have turned, our thoughts are bewildered, our hardship has intensified, and our fatigue has grown strong. So do not make us hope for a fleeting cloud or a passing rain-cloud, and have compassion on us at the descent of calamities and distress, and do not disappoint our hope in what we have asked of You, O Possessor of the true promise.

The distress has become great, the heart has darkened, the calamity has become general, the virgins have been bewildered by tribulation! So succor us, O He who is the succor and the rain, and through whom rains are given! And dispel from us the darkness with your face, O full moon whose light illuminates the moons! And the Generous One through whom evils are repelled from us and harms are removed! O Merciful to the believers, a stranger hindered by destinies from reaching you! Separation, longing, and abandonment have harmed him, and his stay and confinement have been prolonged! When, O desire of hearts, will he be cheered by the vision of your grave? And peace be upon you as long as clouds pour down and flowers spread their fragrance! O Allah, I ask You by the sanctity of this noble Prophet and the status of his high and lofty rank, that You be gentle with me, O Gentle One, and let down upon me the cloak of Your lush covering, and do not take me to task for the evil I have earned, O my Master, for I am a weak servant; and how can the weak fear between the Gentle and the Noble?

The light of Allah has shone, the command of Allah has appeared, the decree of Allah has been executed, the might of Allah has been established, and it has repelled from me affliction and enemies with 'there is no power nor strength except with Allah': 'So Allah will suffice you against them, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing,' and there is no power nor strength except with Allah, the Most High, the Magnificent.

And may Allah bless our master Muhammad and his family and companions and grant them peace, a blessing that unties knots, relieves distress, fulfills goals, and satisfies needs. And I ask You, O Allah, by Your pure and good name, which when You are called by it You answer, and when You are asked by it You give, and when You are implored for mercy by it You have mercy, and when relief is sought by it You grant relief, that You bless and grant peace to our master Muhammad and his family, and that You relieve me from what I am in, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds. O Allah, I ask You, O Allah, O Living, O Self-Subsisting, in You I have sought refuge, so have mercy on me, with a protection of sufficiency and preservation of the reality of proof, and a fortress of safety: In the name of Allah, let me enter. O First, O Last, the hidden of the secret of the circle of a treasure: ﴿What Allah wills﴾ And let fall, O Allah, O Forbearing, O Veiler, over me the wing of the veil of acceptance: That is better, that is from deliverance: ﴿And hold fast to Allah﴾ And build, O Encompassing, O All-Powerful, over me a wall of encompassing glory of a pavilion, of might and majesty: ﴿And that is better, and that is from the signs of Allah﴾, ﴿And from the bounty of Allah﴾. And honor me, O Near, O Answerer, and guard me in myself, my religion, my home, my family, and my children, with the guardianship of assistance: ﴿And they cannot harm them in anything except by Allah's permission﴾. And protect me, O Repeller, O Preventer, by Your names, Your signs, and Your words, from the evil of Satan and the ruler, and every oppressor or tyrant who transgresses against me: ﴿An overwhelming [torment] from the punishment of Allah seized him﴾. And save me, O Abaser, O Avenger, from Your oppressive servants who transgress against me and their helpers: ﴿And if they commit evil, Allah forsakes them, and seals their hearing and heart, and places a covering over their sight; then who will guide them after Allah?﴾ And suffice me, O All-Powerful (19), O Subduer, against the deception of their plot, and turn them back from me disgraced and expelled, with confusion, change, destruction: ﴿Then there was for him no faction to support him other than Allah﴾. And make me taste, O Most Holy, O Holy, the sweetness of intimate conversation: ﴿Fear not, indeed you are of the secure. Insert your hand into your bosom; it will come out white without disease﴾. ﴿And another sign, that We may show you some of the signs of Allah﴾. And make them taste, O Causer of Death, O Harmer, the punishment of calamity: ﴿So the root of the people who wronged was cut off, and praise be to Allah﴾. And grant me security, O Peace, O Bestower of Security, O Protector, from the assault and incursion of enemies, with an ultimate beginning and signs: ﴿For them are glad tidings in the life of this world and in the Hereafter; no change can there be in the words of Allah﴾. And crown me, O Great, O Honorer, O Crown, with the awe of majesty, glory, authority, dominion, and might of grandeur: ﴿So let not their speech grieve you; indeed, honor belongs to Allah entirely﴾. And clothe me, O Majestic, O Great, with the robe of perfection, veneration, and acceptance: ﴿And when they saw him, they greatly admired him and cut their hands and said, 'Perfect is Allah!'﴾ And cast, O Mighty, O Loving, upon me love from You, by which the necks of Your servants will yield and submit to me, with love, affection, and honor, from tenderness and harmony: So that I may be among: ﴿Those who have believed and whose hearts are assured by the remembrance of Allah﴾. And pour upon me, O Patient, O Appreciative, patience, and make me among those who have sown the seed of certainty: ﴿How many a small company has overcome a large company by permission of Allah﴾. And protect me, O Preserver, O Disposer of Affairs, from before me and from behind me, and on my right and on my left, and from above me and from beneath me, with the existence of witnessing troops: ﴿For him are angels [i.e., successive guardians] before him and behind him, who protect him by the command of Allah﴾. And make firm, O Allah, O Self-Subsisting, my heart and my foot, as You made firm the one who said: ﴿And how should I fear what you associate while you do not fear that you have associated with Allah﴾. And grant me victory, O Excellent Protector and Excellent Helper, over the enemies, the victory of the one to whom it was said: ﴿Do you take us in mockery? He said, 'I seek refuge in Allah'﴾. And support me, O Seeker, O Victorious, with the support of Your Prophet, our master Muhammad, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, who was supported by the strengthening of: ﴿Indeed, We have sent you as a witness and a bearer of good tidings and a warner, that you [people] may believe in Allah﴾. And suffice me, O Sufficer, O Healer of ailments and evils, with recurring benefits: ﴿If We had sent down this Quran upon a mountain, you would have seen it humbled and splitting from fear of Allah﴾. And bestow (20) upon me, O Bestower, O Provider, with the attainment, acquisition, and acceptance of planning, subjugation, and facilitation: ﴿Eat and drink from the provision of Allah﴾. And take me as Your protégé, O Protecting Friend, O Most High, with guardianship, care, and safety, with increased happiness and supply: «And that is better, and that is from the signs of Allah, and from the bounty of Allah». And honor me, O Generous, O Self-Sufficient, with happiness, leadership, and nobility, as You honored those who lower their voices in the presence of the Messenger of Allah. And turn to me in repentance, O Oft-Returning, O Wise, with sincere repentance, so that I may be among: «Those who, when they commit an immorality or wrong themselves, remember Allah and seek forgiveness for their sins; and who can forgive sins except Allah?» And realize my faith, O Most High, O Great, by the right of the greatness of Your Greatest Name, the realization of: «Those to whom the people said, 'Indeed, the people have gathered against you, so fear them.' But it [only] increased them in faith, and they said, 'Sufficient for us is Allah, and [He is] the best Disposer of affairs.' So they returned with favor from Allah and bounty, no harm having touched them, and they pursued the pleasure of Allah.» And pour upon my heart, O Turner of hearts, from the water of the sky of success for obedience pleasing to You: «During the hours of the night and at the ends of the day». With the existence of the generosity of Your absolute and universal favor, with everlasting continuity, a success that elevates the resolve of steadfastness; for the helpless like me, there is no way to reform himself except by saying: «And my success is not but through Allah». And guide me, O Guide: «To the straight path, the path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, of the prophets, the truthful, the martyrs, and the righteous, and excellent are those as companions. That is the bounty from Allah.» «Say, 'Indeed, the guidance of Allah is the [true] guidance.'»

And extend my will from Your Will with goodness, O my Master, O He in Whose Hand are the reins of hearts with verification, precision, affirmation, and granting of success to those immersed in pure love for Your Noble Face. For the reins of my contingent power are in the Hand of Your Eternal, Righteous Will to lead me to the eye of correctness. Indeed, I am devoid of might and power, holding fast to Your saying: "And you do not will except that Allah wills" (Quran 76:30). And seal for me, O Most Merciful, O Most Compassionate, with the seal of the successful ones, to whom it was said: "O My servants who have transgressed against themselves, do not despair of the mercy of Allah" (Quran 39:53). And lodge me, O All-Hearing, O Near One, in: "Gardens of perpetual residence which have been prepared for the righteous" (Quran 3:133), "and their call therein is, 'Exalted are You, O Allah,' and their greeting therein is peace, and the last of their call is, 'Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds'" (Quran 10:10). O Allah, O Opener, O Most Merciful, O Most Compassionate, I ask You, O Allah, by the sanctity of these Names, verses, and words: a victorious authority, a contented heart, abundant provision, vast knowledge, illuminating understanding, an easy reckoning, and a great dominion in both abodes. And may Allah bless our Master Muhammad and his Family and Companions and grant them peace. O Allah, O Hearer of every voice, O Provider of every sustenance, O Clother of bones with flesh and Reviver of them after death, I ask You by Your Great Names and by Your Greatest, Most Supreme Name, the treasured, the concealed, which no created being has ever accessed, that You cast upon me from Your adornment, Your love, and the attributes of Your Lordship that which dazzles minds, humbles souls, subdues necks, flashes before eyes, scatters thoughts, and brings low every arrogant tyrant. O Allah, O Sovereign, O Almighty, O Compeller, O Allah, O One, O Unique, O Subduer, O Allah, guard us with Your Eye that never sleeps (21 times), and suffice us with Your protection that is never assailed, and have mercy on us through Your power over us, and do not destroy us while You are our hope. For how many a blessing have You bestowed upon me for which I have thanked You, and how many a trial have You afflicted me with in which my patience for You has been scant! So, O He at Whose blessing my gratitude is scant yet He has not deprived me, and O He at Whose trial my patience is scant yet He has not forsaken me, and O He Who has watched over me amid sins yet has not disgraced me, I ask You to send blessings upon Muhammad and upon the Family of Muhammad, as You sent blessings upon Ibrahim and upon the Family of Ibrahim; indeed, You are Praiseworthy, Glorious. O Allah, O Possessor of beneficence that never ceases, and O Possessor of favors that cannot be counted, I ask You to send blessings upon our Master and Patron Muhammad and upon the Family of our Master and Patron Muhammad forever, and to make for us from all our affairs a relief and a way out, by Your mercy, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds.

My God, my heart has turned to You in the poverty of loss, led by longing and driven by yearning; its provision is fear and its companion is anxiety; its aim is acceptance and repentance; so have mercy on me, O my Master, and pardon me, and accept my words with response. My God, bring me near to You with the nearness of the knowers ¹⁶⁵, and purify me from the attachments of nature ¹⁶⁶, and remove from me the attachments of blame, so that I may be among those purified by the light of Your care, filling my existence outwardly and inwardly. O Allah, I ask You for intimacy with the encounter of the secret of power ¹⁶⁷, an intimacy that erases the effect of the loneliness of thought from me, until my heart is pleased with You, and I am pleased with the fragrance of Your love, until I become among the people of Your special presence. O Allah, grant me a speaking tongue, a truthful word, a penetrating understanding, a tasting secret ¹⁶⁸, a receptive heart, a reasoning intellect, a radiant thought that knocks with love and is humbled, and a disquieting longing and ecstasy. Grant me a tranquil soul, and limbs soft for Your obedience. Purify me for coming to You, and bestow upon me good manners before You. Favor me with every good that is with You. Make my absence in You and my intimacy with You. Grant me precedence over my peers. Indeed, You are Self-Sufficient, Bestowing. O Possessor of abundant gifts and grants, You bestow favor before asking. So bestow upon me, O my Master, what I have asked, and do not disappoint my hope in what I have intended and desired. For You are the Possessor of favor and perfection, O Allah, O Great, O Exalted, O Possessor of might and majesty, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds.

May Allah bless you and your family with a blessing that endures with the knowledge of Allah in pre-eternity ²⁷² and in what never ceases, until Allah inherits the earth and those upon it, and He is the best of inheritors. O He whose essence is too exalted for perception, and whose decree runs in pre-eternity, You are the One who decreed happiness for whom You love, and decreed misery for whom You hate, and concealed the outcomes of matters in the treasuries of Your unseen, and left creation bewildered between fear and hope, stretching out their hands in supplication and entreaty, holding fast to the rope of request, fearful of dread. At Your door they beseech, and from the evil of what their hands have earned they are apprehensive. Your forbearance has led them to presume upon Your generous side and to stand at Your magnificent door. Through Your beloved and the most beloved of creation to You they intercede, and through his noble standing with You they seek means ²⁷³. You have made us hear in the clear verses of Your Mighty Book and Your kind concise address that You said—and Your word is truth: "If only when they wronged themselves they had come to you and asked forgiveness of Allah, and the Messenger had asked forgiveness for them, they would have found Allah Accepting of repentance, Merciful" ²⁷⁴. We have wronged ourselves and come to You seeking forgiveness for our sins, clinging to the side of our Prophet whom You sent as a mercy to us. So do not cause us to despair of Your pardon, nor cut off our hope in Your bounty. For You said—and Your word is truth: "O My servants who have transgressed against themselves, do not despair of the mercy of Allah. Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful" ²⁷⁵. So forgive me, O my Master, for what I have done in the past and what I will do in the future, what I have concealed and what I have declared, and what You know better than I, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds. My God, my Master, and my Lord, if You close Your door in my face, to whom shall I turn? And if You take me to task for my evil deeds, to whom shall I complain and seek refuge? My God, the hands of desires have captured me, the snares of pleasures have trapped me, the slippery slopes of slips have snatched me away. So set right my stumble, O Setter right of stumbles, and accept my repentance, O You who accepts repentance from His servants and pardons misdeeds. My God, my Master, and my Lord, if You only have mercy on the obedient, then who is for the disobedient? If You only have mercy on the doers of good, then who is for the evildoers? If You only have mercy on the diligent, then who is for the idle? If You only have mercy on the truthful, then who is for the liars? If You only have mercy on the vigilant, then who is for the heedless? If You only have mercy on those who stand in prayer, then who is for those who sleep? If You only have mercy on those who fast, then who is for those who break the fast? If You only have mercy on the perfect, then who is for the deficient? If You only have mercy on the righteous, then who is for the corrupt? If You only have mercy on those who turn to You, then who is for those who turn away? If You only have mercy on those who act, then who is for those who fall short? If You only have mercy on the sincere, then who is for the ostentatious? My God, You commanded us to supplicate and guaranteed us response. You said—and Your word is truth: "Call upon Me; I will respond to you" ²⁷⁶. And here we have called upon You as You commanded us, so respond to our supplication as You promised us. For You are the Generous, the Fulfiller of Your promise; no breach is attributed to You. You are the Merciful, the Kind to Your servants, extending Your affection. So do not turn us back disappointed, nor driven away from Your door, O Most Generous of the generous, O Answerer of supplicants, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds. And O Allah, bless our master Muhammad with an accepted, pleasing blessing, by which You accept our supplication and are pleased with us, O Master of the Day of Judgment, and bless his family, his companions, his wives, the mothers of the believers, his offspring, his pure ones, and his noble helpers, and grant him peace and them all. And praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds. O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, the attained contentment.

O Allah, I ask You, O my Master, and by the sanctity of this noble Prophet whom You have made the most noble of the prophets as a means ⁴⁹³, and the greatest of them in virtues, and the most comprehensive of them in bounties, and the most complete of them in obligations and supererogatory acts, and by the sanctity of his majestic rank and his honored and abundant station, and his places that were filled with revelation and sending down, to which the trustworthy Gabriel ⁴⁹⁴ repeatedly came, that You make my heart filled with love for him, and molded and created upon faith in him, and make me among those who experience no defect in their love for him, and no weariness or laziness in blessing him, so that I may spend my night and day in that, and immerse my thoughts and reflections in it, and make his praise my emblem and garment, and praise of him my source of arrival and departure, and seeking intercession through his rank ⁴⁹⁵ a key to fulfilling my needs and desires. O Allah, grant me a full share of his intercession, and help me to serve and obey him, and bestow upon me the vision of his illuminated tomb ⁴⁹⁶ and his visitation. O my master, O Messenger of Allah, since destinies have prevented me from union with you, and I have no power to reach your noble sanctuaries, and your love and longing have filled the corners of my thought, the expanse of my chest, and the worlds of my secret and public, and I have been overtaken by regret for the distance of your shrine and yearning for your neighborhood, which has lodged in my innermost parts a burning and in my limbs a restlessness, and You have made the image of your verdant garden ⁴⁹⁷ a model and its beautiful landmarks (107) a means to attain my goal, and made looking at it a cause to extinguish my passion, and the kohl ⁴⁹⁸ of its light a polish for the mirror of my insight concerning you, O intercessor of creatures, my plea for intercession, and to You is my refuge on the Day of the Caller ⁴⁹⁹, so remember me, O Messenger of Allah, on the great and witnessed day, at your overflowing pool ⁵⁰⁰, and your extended shade, and your praiseworthy station ⁵⁰¹. O Allah, just as You have enriched me to praise Your magnificent Prophet and honored Messenger, make him an intercessor for me, and cause me to die obedient to his religion, and bestow upon me a speedy visitation to his noble grave, for You are powerful over that, and You are Knowing and Aware of the reality of my supplication. May Allah bless our master and lord Muhammad and his family and companions and grant them peace abundantly, and praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds. Allah is Greater ⁵⁰² in love, His greatness has appeared, and guidance has shone and its lights have become manifest to us. The landmarks have appeared in soil and its dwellings, the resting place of the Messenger, his abode and his settlement. This is the palm trees and Taybah ⁵⁰³ and Muhammad, the best of creation, its freshness, I am his neighbor. This is the place of prayer and al-Baqi' ⁵⁰⁴ and here is the quarter of the Beloved and these are his traces. These are his sanctified dwellings to which Gabriel repeatedly returned. These are the places of the descent of revelation, whose lines heal the hearts from blindness. These are the footsteps of the best of those who trod the earth and whose settlement rose above the seven highest heavens. He filled existence with the reality of his radiance, so his night and day shone from it. And the fragrant garden ⁵⁰⁵ has blown its breeze, and the bān tree ⁵⁰⁶ has appeared and its veil has been disclosed. And Sal' ⁵⁰⁷ has become fragrant, so ask about its perfume: why would it not be fragrant when around it is the Chosen One? Glad tidings to you, O my heart, for you have attained your wish and reached what you desire and choose. The union you hoped for has become possible, and likewise my love, its secrets have become possible. I had a burning before the meeting, but now seeing him has doubled my burning. (108) Be gentle a little, O my tears, stop, for tears in love should be restrained. The noble abodes are beyond needing that their soil be flooded with tears. Would he who visits the Beloved be lost, when he has observed that the visited one has visitors at his door? Would he who seeks the Generous be disappointed, when good hope is his emblem and garment? Would a stumbling one who comes to your door be turned away, and his stumble not be excused? Far be it, no, that a worker should be disappointed and return empty-handed, his journeys evil. O master of the messengers, my back is heavy, so perhaps by your rank its burdens may be lightened. Have mercy on one whose sins have halted him, so that his coming is like his going. He has worn humility while his burden has become great, and forgiveness makes his burdens small. The shrine is far, and there is no shrine, and how severe is what a lover whose shrine is far from you endures. He has come to your sanctuary fleeing from his guardians, and to You, O best of mankind, is his flight. He has come to you seeking intercession and hope, led by his sins as helpers. And the servant is apologetic, humble, submissive, and perfumed, whose excuses have been prolonged. Seeking intercession, his sins have burned him, disavowing, his fire has burned him. It has cast him into the depth of his homelands, and his desires have thrown him to your highness. So bestow favor, forgive, overlook, and pardon, for You are the eraser of sins, the Oft-Forgiving. May Allah bless you as long as the rain cloud revives the meadow of the hills and the birds warble. (109) O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, with the blessing of a servant who blesses him with the best of blessings, and asks Allah by his rank to make the difficult easy for him and to lead him on the paths of salvation.

(110) My God, my Master, and my Lord, this is Your beloved, the accepted intercessor, and I am Your servant, great in desires and ambitions. How can I fear, O my Lord, when You have made him a mercy for the disobedient and the obedient? My God, my Master, and my Lord, this is Your chosen beloved and Your approved messenger, and I am Your servant, accountable for my sins on the Day of Judgment and Decree. How can I fear, O my Lord, when You have made him a key to the doors of pardon and satisfaction? My God, my Master, and my Lord, this is Your elect and chosen beloved, and I am Your servant, lacking in fear and trust.

How can I fear, O my Lord, when You have made him a cave where the fearful takes refuge when terrors accumulate? My God, my Master, and my Lord, this is Your beloved of great station, and I am Your servant, abundant in sins and burdens. How can I fear, O my Lord, when You have made him a light for us in this world and a light by which we seek illumination in the darkness of the grave? (111) My God, my Master, and my Lord, this is the source of Your generosity and beneficence, and I am Your servant, trusting in what You have revealed in Your Criterion ⁵¹². How can I despair, O my Lord, when You have made prayer upon him a means for drawing down Your pardon and attaining Your forgiveness?

How can I be secure, O my Lord, when I seek refuge in Your beloved and the refuge of Your protection? My God, my Master, and my Lord, this is Your pure and intimate beloved, and I am Your abased servant. How can I fear that oppression will touch me when You have made him a refuge at the descent of the tremendous matter and the great affair?

(112) My God, my Master, and my Lord, this is Your beloved, distinguished by the highest rank, and I am Your servant, imprisoned in the prison of my fleeting world. How can Your generosity not encompass me when I am affiliated with his lofty station, clinging to his sublime tree?

How can I thirst, O my Lord, when You have made him an abundant watering-place that quenches the heart of the heedless lover? My God, my Master, and my Lord, this is Your beloved, whose rank no one has attained, and I am Your servant, consoled by love for him instead of family and child. How can I return empty-handed when You have made him a sea of generosity from which no one who seeks is disappointed? My God, my Master, and my Lord, this is Your beloved, the pillar and support, and I am Your servant, of little provision.

And the number ⁵¹³, and how can I be harmed, O my Master, when You have made it a cutting sword against everyone who denied or obstinately opposed? My God, my Lord, and my Master, this is Your beloved ⁵¹⁴ through whom the distressed and the anguished seek relief, and I am Your servant who is bewildered by love for him and passionately attached. How can I not hope to attain his favor, when he is described with forbearance and known for generosity and munificence? My God, my Lord, and my Master, this is Your beloved whom You have characterized with the sublime character ⁵¹⁵, and I am Your servant described with every blameworthy trait. How can I fear, O my Master, when You have made him a mercy for a sinner like me and named him the Kind, the Merciful ⁵¹⁶? My God, my Lord, and my Master, this is Your beloved, the supreme intermediary ⁵¹⁷, and I am Your servant seeking refuge in his inviolable sanctuary. How can I be secure, O my Master, when I am interceding with You through his lofty and most high status? (113) My God, my Lord, and my Master, this is Your beloved whose intercession is accepted in the arenas of the Resurrection ⁵¹⁸, and I am Your servant hoping for the rewards and honor that are with him. How can I not hope for his sublime rewards, when You have made his noble praises my emblem and sign? My God, my Lord, and my Master, this is Your beloved whom You have made a mercy to the worlds ⁵¹⁹, and I am Your servant who seeks means through him to You, O Most Merciful of the merciful. I ask You, O Allah, by his sanctity and the sanctity of love for him, and the loftiness of his station and rank, not to reject my request, nor disappoint my hopes in You, nor cut off my expectation from You, nor veil my supplication from Your door, O Lord of the worlds. My God, great is my regret and severe my distress, my desire has mastered me, and I have found no deed that could be a means before You, nor a righteous step with which to advance to You, except that trust in the vastness of Your forbearance and generosity, and it made me hope to ask for Your pardon and mercy. For You have said, O my Master, in Your Mighty Book: "Indeed, the mercy of Allah is near to the doers of good" ⁵²⁰. So if I am not among the doers of good to whom Your mercy is near, then have mercy on me among the prodigals whom Your mercy encompasses. And You have said, O my Master—and Your word is truth: "Say, 'O My servants who have transgressed against themselves, do not despair of the mercy of Allah. Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful'" ⁵²¹. So forgive me, O my Master, and have mercy on me, and make me among the things that Your mercy encompasses. And You have said in Your Noble Book: "And My mercy encompasses all things" ⁵²². And You are the One for whom nothing is too great. So deal with us, O our Master, as befits You, for You are the Lord of pardon and mercy. You accept repentance from Your servants and overlook with excuse. And You have said, O my Master, informing about Yourself: "Indeed, You are the Lord of piety and the Lord of forgiveness" ⁵²³. And if sins have led to my ruin, yet I hope that sins through which Your pardon appears are better than deeds through which (114) my evil appears. So this is my station before You, and this is my state in seeking You. O Allah, do not cut off my tongue of apology by establishing arguments, nor burn the honor of my gray hair with the heat of blazing fire. Rescue me from the mires of harm and constraint to the expanse of Your mercy, in which breasts expand and souls find delight. And grant me, O Allah, from every worry in which I find myself morning or evening, relief and a way out. O Swift in kindness, O Near in relief, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds. O Allah, I ask You for sincere faith, certainty after which there is no doubt, and mercy through which I attain the honor of Your generosity in this world and the Hereafter. And I ask You for success at the time of judgment, the stations of the martyrs, the life of the happy, victory over enemies, and harmony with all things. O Allah, whatever good You have given to any of Your creatures that my opinion could not attain and my deed fell short of, but my intention and aspiration reached, I desire it from You. O Allah, I ask You to make us guides and rightly guided, not astray nor leading astray, at war with Your enemies, at peace with Your friends, loving with Your love and opposing with Your enmity those who oppose You among Your creatures. O Allah, this is the supplication, and from You is the answer; this is the effort, and upon You is reliance. There is no power nor strength except with Allah, the Exalted, the Magnificent. And may Allah bless our master Muhammad and his family and companions and grant them peace abundantly. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds. O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, Your beloved, whose head You created from guidance, his eyebrows from contemplation, his eyes from light, his hearing from obedience, his nose from asceticism, his mouth from wisdom, his teeth from pearls, his tongue from truthfulness, his beard from contentment, his neck from humility, his hand from generosity, his chest from sincerity, his heart from devotion (115) his liver from tenderness, his lungs from tranquility, his spleen from dignity, his stomach from contentment, his cheerfulness from infallibility, his thighs from piety, his feet from uprightness—a prophet who grew up with forbearance, dined with knowledge, and walked with light. The lizard and the foreleg of a sheep spoke to him. His light was transferred from loins to wombs until he reached the pinnacle of eminence. Then from it [light] He created; when he stood and walked, Quraysh were stunned by the light of his face in amazement. By his right, O Creator of the Throne, do as You will. Be gentle with us as You will, and we will nothing except what You will. And by the right of David, who grew up and whom You taught from what You will, and by Your right, he stood at night when it covers ⁵²⁴. Grant me security from what I fear, and give me to drink, O Lord, from his basin ⁵²⁵ a drink after which there is no thirst. By the right of Him who gives wisdom to whom He wills, and spread over us provision as You will, for You are powerful over what You will. O Living, O Self-Subsistent, O Most Gracious, O Most Merciful, O Forbearing, O Generous. And I ask You by the Jim of Your beauty ⁵²⁶, the Ha of Your forbearance, the 'Ayn of Your knowledge, the Ghayn of Your forgiveness, the Ha of Your bounty, the Kaf of Your majesty, the Lam of Your kindness, the Mim of Your sovereignty, the Alif of Your divinity, the Dad of Your light, the Ra of Your good pleasure, the Sin of Your secret, and the Light of Your Face, to implant in my heart security, knowledge, forbearance, certainty, patience, trust, sincerity, dignity, preservation, and understanding in my chest, and to place light in my sight and Your remembrance night and day on my tongue, and make me...

O Allah, [grant me] better than what they think, and do not take me to task for what they say, and forgive me for what they do not know, and have mercy on my lowliness and my supplication to You, and my loneliness from Your creation, and comfort me with You, O Near One, O Answerer of the supplication of the petitioners, and Granter of faith to the hearts of the lonely ⁵²⁷, and Reliever of the worries of the distressed, have mercy on the weeping of the weak, O Most Generous of the generous, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds.
