And when the soul is paired [1] with its body [2]

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. And may Allah bless our master and lord Muhammad, his family, and his companions, and grant them abundant peace. Praise be to Allah, who is not forgotten through remembrance of Him; praise be to Allah, whose hope is never disappointed; praise be to Allah, who suffices those who trust in Him; praise be to Allah, who does not abandon those who rely on Him; praise be to Allah, who rewards patience with salvation and goodness with goodness; praise be to Allah, who repays evil deeds with forgiveness; praise be to Allah, who relieves our distress and anguish; praise be to Allah, who is our trust when all stratagems fail us; and praise be to Allah with all His praises, those I know and those I do not know, as numerous as all His creation, those I know and those I do not know. O Allah, to You be praise as befits the majesty of Your countenance and the greatness of Your sovereignty; to You be praise as numerous as Your generosity, Your blessings, and the perfection of Your goodness; to You be praise by which You grant us a abundant portion in the garden of Your good pleasure. O Allah, to You be praise, and to You returns all matters, both open and secret, as You are worthy of praise. Indeed, You are over all things competent. O Allah, forgive me my past sins, protect me in what remains of my life, and grant me ¹ a pure deed with which You are pleased with me. O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, a blessing by which You forgive me every sin that my body committed through Your well-being, or that my power attained through the bounty of Your grace, or that my hand extended to through the abundance of Your provision, or that I concealed from people through Your covering, or that I relied upon in my fear of You through Your trustworthiness, or that I trusted in Your forbearance against Your severity, or that I relied upon the generosity of Your countenance and Your pardon. O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, a blessing by which You forgive me every sin that leads to Your anger, or brings me near to Your wrath, or inclines me toward what You have forbidden me. O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, a blessing by which You forgive me every sin by which I made any of Your creatures deem something lawful, or deceived them with my cunning so that I knew from them what they did not know, and You adorned for them what they already knew, so that I meet You tomorrow with their burdens along with my own. O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, a blessing by which You forgive me every sin that calls to error and calls to guidance, that necessitates reverence and brings affliction, that carries remembrance and diminishes excuse. O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, a blessing by which You forgive me every sin in which I wearied my limbs night and day, while I concealed it out of shame from Your servants, and there is no covering except what You have covered me with. O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, a blessing by which You forgive me every sin in which my enemies rejoiced for my destruction, but You turned their plot away from me ² and did not aid them in exposing me, as if I were a friend of Yours, so You granted me victory. How long, O Lord, will I disobey while You grant me respite, and I ask You despite my evil deeds, and You give me? Long have I disobeyed You, yet You did not seize me. What gratitude can stand for one of Your blessings upon me? O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, a blessing by which You forgive me every sin for which I presented my repentance to You and faced You with my crime; rather, I turned to Your Prophet, peace be upon him, and called Your friends and servants to witness against myself that I would not return to disobedience of You. But when Satan approached me with his plot and inclined me to abandonment, and my soul called me to disobedience, I concealed myself out of shame from Your servants and out of audacity toward You, while I know that no covering or door can hide me from You, and no veil can screen Your sight. So I opposed You in disobedience toward what You forbade me. Then You did not remove the covering from me, and You made me equal to Your friends, as if I had always been obedient and hearing, hastening to Your command, and fleeing from Your threat. So I deceived Your servants, and none knew my secret except You. You did not name me with other than their name; rather, You lavished upon me from You their blessings and favored me over them in that, as if I were in their rank. That is only through Your forbearance, as a favor from You. So to You be praise, O my Master. I ask You, O Allah, just as You concealed it from me in this world, do not expose me for it in the Hereafter. O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, a blessing by which You forgive me every sin for which I stayed awake at night in my pleasures until morning, then adorned myself with the adornment of the righteous while harboring the opposite, O Lord of the worlds. O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, a blessing by which You forgive me every sin by which I wronged a friend of Yours, or supported ³ an enemy of Yours, or spoke without Your love, or rose to other than Your obedience, or went in it to other than Your command. O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, a blessing by which You forgive me every sin that begets illness, brings affliction, gladdens enemies, uncovers the veil, and withholds rain from the sky. O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, a blessing by which You forgive me every sin that I forgot while You recorded it, that I took lightly while You confirmed it, that I committed openly while You concealed it—had I repented to You, You would have forgiven it. O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, a blessing by which You forgive me every sin for which I expected punishment from You before it was executed, but You granted me respite and let down Your covering over me, not tearing it away. O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, a blessing by which You forgive me every sin that You forbade me, yet I opposed You by committing it; that You warned me against, yet I ventured into it; that You deemed ugly, yet my soul adorned it for me.

O Allah, send blessings and peace upon our master and lord Muhammad and upon the family of our master and lord Muhammad, a blessing by which You forgive me every sin that befell me because of a blessing You bestowed upon me, by which I was strengthened to disobey You, and therein I opposed Your command, and thereby I ventured against Your threat.

O Allah, send blessings and peace upon our master and lord Muhammad and upon the family of our master and lord Muhammad, a blessing by which You forgive me every sin in which I preferred my desire over Your obedience, and preferred my love over Your command, thereby pleasing myself at the cost of Your wrath and exposing myself to Your displeasure, when You warned me against it by Your prohibition, and You argue against me concerning it by Your threat.

O Allah, I ask You by his love and his yearnings, by his sleep and his sleeplessness, and by his covenant and his pledge, to free my leg by the sanctity of his leg, which performed i'tikaf ³⁴⁸ in the mosques of goodness and devoted itself to worship in its cloisters, and to relieve my worry, remove my grief, mend what is broken in my state, and release me from my bonds. O Healer, O Restorer, I swear by his rank that You heal my illnesses with his antidote. O Allah, I ask You by his laws, the jewels of his wisdom, the flashes of his miracles, and the tables of his generosity to free my foot by the sanctity of his foot, before which rocks softened, rivers split by its blessings, the treasury of the Frequent House ³⁴⁹ kissed its dust, the chiefs of the near angels and the servants of the veils and curtains sought intercession through it, and the monks of the monasteries of light bowed in awe of its majesty, and to gather my state upon You, and answer my request in what I have asked of You. O Gatherer of mankind for a Day about which there is no doubt, O Most Merciful, O Compassionate, O Forbearing, O Generous, O He who is unique in glory and majesty, and none disputes with Him in His kingdom and the loftiness of His station. O Allah, I am Your servant, and this is Your beloved, and You have made him in this world an impregnable fortress, and in the Hereafter an accepted intercessor, and You said—and Your word is truth: "And if, 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 and Merciful" ³⁵⁰.

By Your might, none persists in disobeying You except a wicked one, and none feels secure from Your stratagem except a loser. ³⁵³ My God, when I remember my sin and the abundance of Your beneficence, I wish that You had not created me, out of shame before You. My God, I disobeyed You while You saw me, and You bestowed favor upon me and did not hasten punishment upon me, though I deserved it. This is nothing but Your mercy and Your favor, so complete it upon me with Your preservation, O Forbearing, O Generous, O Merciful. My God, the earth became narrow for me despite its vastness, and heedlessness drove its pegs into me, and the world cast upon me the adornments of its cloak, and the snares of desires caught me with their means, and I fell between its claws and fangs, and I remained in the deserts of my stumblings, and I did not enter the houses from their doors. And here I am, turning my face to Your Mighty Door, and seeking intercession with You through the sanctity of this noble Prophet, ³⁵⁴ that You forgive me, have mercy on me, relent toward me, and heal me from all affliction and calamity, coming from the earth and descending from the sky.

And forgive my parents, and the believing men and women, and the Muslim men and women, the living among them and the dead, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds. O God, You have commanded us to supplicate to You, and You have promised us Your response.

O God, I ask You by Your Mighty Right, ³⁵⁹ and by the light of Your Noble Face, and by the right of Your Mighty Throne, that You show me the face of Your beloved Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, a true vision by which my eye is comforted, my breast is expanded, my scattered state is united, and You gather me with him in the highest station above which there is no station, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds.

O Allah, I ask You, O He whose concern is sufficiency, O He whose canopy is guardianship, O He who is hope and expectation, and upon whom reliance is placed in hardships. Indeed, adversity has touched me, and You are the Most Merciful of the merciful ⁴⁴⁷, and matters have become straitened for me, and You are the Best of inheritors. So how can I fear and be cautious while You are my hope? O Allah, I ask You by the hidden subtlety of Your subtle kindness, and by the delicate workmanship of Your workmanship, and by what the veils conceal of the majestic perfection of the greatness of Your firmly established Throne, and by what Your power encompasses of the dominion of sovereignty. O He whose command cannot be repelled and whose decree cannot be reversed, I ask You, O Allah, by Your prophets and messengers, Your angels and those brought near, and by Your great, approved, magnificent, blessed, mighty, wise, protective, perfect names that do not cease, perish, vanish, change, or alter. And I ask You by Your majesty, Your omnipotence, Your sovereignty, Your light, Your splendor, Your might, Your bounty, Your favor, Your grace, Your glory, Your majesty, Your beauty, and Your greatest names, and by every name that belongs to You, stored in the knowledge of Your unseen, and by Your name with which You saved Daniel from the mouths of beasts, and by Your name with which You raised Idris to a lofty station, and by Your name with which You delivered Abraham from the fire, making it cool and safe for him, and by Your name with which You delivered Isaac from slaughter, and by Your name with which You delivered Joseph from the well and prison, and by Your name with which You restored Jacob's sight, and by Your name with which You delivered Jonah from the belly of the fish until he called out in the darknesses: 'There is no god but You, exalted are You; indeed, I have been of the wrongdoers,' and by Your name with which You looked upon Joshua son of Nun and made him victorious over the tyrannical people, and by Your name with which Moses entered upon Pharaoh, and he became humbled and submissive, and by Your name by which the beasts were subdued for Moses son of Imran, and by Your name with which You subjected the winds to Solomon, their morning course a month and their evening course a month ⁴⁴⁸, and by Your name with which You subjected to him the devils, every builder and diver, and by Your name with which You granted victory to our master Muhammad, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, over Your polytheist enemies. And by the right of all these names, [I ask] that You place me in Your impregnable armor, guard me with Your eye that never sleeps, envelop me in Your shelter that cannot be assailed, and set over me a covering from Your coverings that the stormy winds cannot shake, nor the deceit of time nor the accidents of events reach it. O Manifestor of proof, O Strong of pillars, O He whose mercy and knowledge are in this place and in every place, and no place is devoid of Him. O Owner of sovereignty and dominion, O He who has veiled Himself, dominating, in omnipotence. O He who placed the layers of the earths and the mountains on the back of the whale, O He who decreed death upon His servants while He is Living and does not die, O He before whom faces and necks are humbled, O Causer of causes, O He whose door is knocked when doors are closed, O Self-Sufficient, O Bestower, You are an excellent Protector and an excellent Helper. In Your name, O Allah, I began, and in Your name I concluded, and in Your name I prevented, restrained, and overcame, and I sought refuge and intended. O Severe in assault, O Lofty of the Throne, interpose between me and those who seek to harm me with their calamities and whose misfortunes approach me. Relieve my anxiety, grief, and distress, O Reliever of Jacob's grief, and remove my affliction, O Remover of Job's affliction, and grant me from my affair relief, a spacious way out, ease, and a near victory. Grant me a sincere repentance after which there is no disobedience or corruption, and have mercy on me with Your mercy that encompasses all things. Forgive me my sins that none knows but You, and rectify for me all my affairs—the affairs of this world and the affairs of the Hereafter. There is no power and no strength except with Allah, the Most High, the Almighty. And seek forgiveness of Allah; indeed, Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. O Allah, send blessings upon Your prophets, messengers, angels, those brought near, Your saints, the righteous, and all the people of Your obedience, and convey to them our greeting and peace, and convey to us ⁴⁴⁹. You have been fair to me when You executed Your command concerning me, for I am the work of Your hand and the slave of Your dominion, and the master does in His dominion what He wills, especially when He is the Wisest of judges. But I know, my Master and Lord, that there is no benefit to You in my punishment and destruction. Are You not Independent of Your creation and their obedience, so how [could You benefit] from their punishment and destruction? My Master, which creature can bear Your trial, which body can withstand Your punishment, which mind can endure witnessing Your earthquakes, and which heart can remain steadfast and unchanged under the affliction of Your chastisement? The Throne, with its vastness, and all the angels, despite their greatness, are like a speck in Your grasp, filled with terror and fear of Your awe. Were it not for Your subtle kindness towards it and the encompassing of Your mercy upon us, it would vanish and not withstand Your greatness. My Master, how can a weak body endure Your punishment, and how can my delicate heart bear witnessing Your chastisement, and how can my feeble mind withstand Your terrors? Indeed, I know that the deserved response to this speech is that You say to me: 'With the body by which [you committed] the forbidden acts, with the mind by which you became entangled in ambiguities, and with the heart by which you tore the veils of disobedience.' Thus Your proof has been established against me in everything, and my own soul has testified for You that everything is due to You from me. But, O my Master, by the sanctity of the Name whose beauty the pillars of Your Throne have monopolized, and whose blessing the treasuries of Your heavens and earth have been filled with the overflow of its bestowal, and to whose servitude all creation submitted when they were dazzled by its might and majesty, and which clothed them in the garment of lowliness and humiliation due to the manifestation of its greatness and sublimity—I beseech You with the plea of one in need of riches, and I ask of You with the request of a weak needy one from a strong King: that You not assign me any portion or lot in Your anger and wrath, and that You write for me in Your good pleasure the best portion and the most abundant share, and that You not make me an inhabitant of the Fire, and that You emancipate me from it with a complete emancipation, and that You carry me, wherever You direct me within Your kingdom, with an easy carrying. O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds. O Allah, send blessings and peace upon our master and lord Muhammad, the opened door of Allah. O Allah, send blessings and peace upon our master and lord Muhammad, the accepted intercessor. O Allah, send blessings and peace upon our master and lord Muhammad, the abundant good. O Allah, send blessings and peace upon our master and lord Muhammad, the requested gift. O Allah, send blessings and peace upon our master and lord Muhammad, the connected rope.

May Allah bless him and grant him peace, and upon his family, as long as torrents pour, streams flow, obedient ones conceal themselves in the cloak of obscurity, a star rises, and a dove coos over the effaced ruins and remains, a blessing that clarifies for us the paths of ways, opens for us every locked door, protects us from wrongdoing in speech, removes from us every terrifying matter, and conveys us from Your pleasure to the utmost of wishes and requests.

Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, the light of majesty, and that You give us to drink from the Kawthar ⁷⁰⁸ of his knowledge the nectar of the breeze of the drink of the Message, the most generous bounty, the most magnificent light, and the greatest might, addressed in the Preserved Book ⁷⁰⁹ by His saying: "You are not, by the grace of your Lord, a madman. And indeed, for you is a reward uninterrupted. And indeed, you are of a great moral character." ⁷¹⁰ O God, bless and grant peace to our master Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, a blessing by which You extinguish for us the heat of the fire of separation with the coolness of certainty and Your union, and by which You clothe us with the lights of the radiant foreheads of the splendor of the glory of Your perfection in the stations of proximity and the holy witnessing, stripped of the essences of humanity through the subtle sciences of divine inspiration ⁷¹¹ and all the lordly secrets, the jewels of solitary wisdom, the realities of divine attributes, and the laws of Muhammadan noble character. O God, O All-Hearing, O Near, O Answerer, O Opener, O Generous, O Merciful. And that You join us with those who preceded in the adornment of success, the winners of perfection in every elegant creation, in the highest company with those upon whom You have bestowed the gifts of the lights of Your most manifest beauty on the carpet of sincere love with the beloved, Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, and his party. O God, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, a blessing sanctified by the secrets of Your holiness, exquisite with the subtleties of Your intimacy, and upon his name among names inscribed with Your attributes and names, and upon his body among bodies attached to Your eternity and divinity, and upon his heart among hearts adorned with knowledge, certainty, and gnosis, and upon his spirit among spirits embellished with success, spirit, and fragrance, and upon his grave among graves enjoying triumph, acceptance, and good pleasure, a blessing whose numbers multiply by grace, favor, and beneficence, and whose extensions follow one another by favor, generosity, and beneficence, with no end and no limit, noble in place and time, Your blessing exalted above origination, weariness, and deficiency. And grant him the seat of nearness with You on the Day of Resurrection, O Compassionate, O Benefactor, O Merciful. O God, bless and grant peace to our master Muhammad, a blessing by which You purify us from the distress of the admixture of human nature through annihilation and effacement, and by which You calm the traces of the existence of the unseen from us in the unseen of Ipseity ⁷¹², so that all remains for the Truth in the Truth by the Truth, and by which You raise us in the ascents of witnessing the existence of: "We will show them Our signs in the horizons and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that it is the Truth." ⁷¹³ O Lord, O God, O Most Generous of the generous, O Originator of the heavens and the earth, O Most Merciful of the merciful. There is no god but You, glory be to You, indeed I have been of the wrongdoers. I ask You from Your great bounty to grant us the lights of the sciences of Muhammadan subtleties with precise allusions: "And He taught you what you did not know, and ever is the bounty of God upon you great." ⁷¹⁴ O God, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, a blessing by which You save us from all afflictions, trials, terrors, and calamities, and by which You deliver us from all tribulations, sicknesses, diseases, blights, and defects, and by which You purify us from all faults and evil deeds, and by which You forgive us all sins and misdeeds ⁷¹⁵, and by which You fulfill for us all our needs, and by which You raise us with You to the highest ranks, and by which You raise us with You to the highest ranks, and by which You make us reach the utmost goals of all good things in life and after death. O Lord, O God, O Answerer of prayers. Our Lord, accept from us; indeed You are the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing. O God, O He by whose majesty the knots of hardships are untied, and O He by whom the bonds of difficulties are loosened, and O He through whom the way out to the relief of comfort is sought. Difficulties are humbled by Your power, and causes are facilitated by Your subtlety. Decree runs by Your obedience, and things proceed according to Your will. So Your will, Your word, and Your intention are issuing. You are the One invoked for important matters and the refuge in calamities. Nothing is repelled from them except what You repel, and nothing is removed from them except what You remove. And indeed, O Lord, there has befallen me what I know, and its weight has almost killed me, and there has come to me from You what its burden has become apparent. By Your power You brought it upon me, and by Your authority You directed it to me. So there is no one to turn away what You bring, no one to divert what You direct, no one to open what You close, no one to make easy what You make difficult, and no one to help whom You forsake. So bless, O God, Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, and open for me the door of relief by Your bounty, and restrain from me the authority of worry by Your might, and grant me good opinion of You in what I have complained of, and provide me with the sweetness of Your action in what I have asked. And grant me from Yourself a pleasant, immediate, and near relief, and a spacious way out. And do not occupy me with concern from attending to Your obligations, practicing Your Sunnah, befriending Your friends, and enmity toward Your enemies. For I have become straitened by what has afflicted me, perplexed by what has befallen me and come upon me, weak to bear what has weighed me down with worry, and stupefied by what I am in of anxiety and grief. And You are able to remove what I have been tried with and to repel what I have fallen into. So bless, O God, Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, and do that for me, O my Master, even if I do not deserve it, and answer me through it, O my God, even if I am not worthy of it. O Possessor of the Mighty Throne, O Most Merciful of the merciful. O God ⁷¹⁶, make me among those who called upon You and You answered their prayer, and who hoped in You and You realized their hope. O God, make me among those who sought refuge in You and You granted them refuge, and who fled to You and You accepted them, and who feared You and You gave them security, and who relied on You and You sufficed them, and who asked You and You gave them, and who is unique in praise and singular in glory. I ask You to bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, and to turn to me in forgiveness and to heal me from all calamity and trial coming from the earth and descending from the sky. Indeed, You are over all things competent. O God, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, the beacon of the wayfarers.

My God, if only the righteous hope for You, then who does the harsh sinner hope for? My God, if You only accept from the diligent, then to whom do the negligent flee? My God, if You only honor the virtuous, then what do the evildoers do? If only the sincere succeed on the Day of Gathering, then whom do the disobedient call for help? My God, if You forgive, it is by Your grace; if You punish, it is by Your justice. My God, You created a body for me and created in it faculties by which I obey and disobey You. You molded my soul with inclination towards desires and love of pleasures, and settled me in a house filled with afflictions. Then You said to me: 'Hold fast!' But how can I hold fast if You do not hold me to You? My God, I have committed sins that You know; so forgive me and pardon me as is befitting of You, and write me for the remainder of my life as an obedient servant whom You honor, and for what has passed as a disobedient servant whom You have mercy upon. My God, sins have silenced my tongue, so I have no means of action nor intercessor except hope. My God, I know that my sins have left me no standing or honor with You, but You are the Most Generous of the generous. My God, if I am not worthy to attain Your mercy, then Your mercy is worthy to reach me, for Your mercy encompasses all things, and I am a thing. My God, though my sins are great, they are small compared to Your pardon; so forgive me, O Generous One. My God, You are You, and I am I. I am the one who returns to sins, and You are the One who returns to forgiveness. O Allah, if You only have mercy on the obedient, then to whom do the sinners flee? My God, how great is Your argument against me! Yet by the cutting off of my argument, my poverty, and Your independence from me, You forgive me. My God, Your runaway slave has returned to Your door; Your disobedient slave fears Your punishment; Your sinful slave has come to You confessing his sins, asking You to look upon him with mercy and accept him by Your grace, O Best of those who are called upon, O Most Excellent of those who are hoped in, by the sanctity of Islam and the covenant of Muhammad, peace be upon him, I beseech You: forgive all my sins, O Granter of needs. Grant me what I have asked of You and fulfill my hope in what I have wished for, O Allah, O Generous One, O Most Gracious, O Most Merciful, O Living, O Self-Subsisting, O Possessor of Majesty and Honor. There is no god but You, glory be to You, indeed I have been among the wrongdoers. O Allah, forgive my past sins and protect me in what remains of my life, for all good is in Your hand, and You are the Most Kind, the Most Merciful. O Allah, forgive me with an outward and inward forgiveness that leaves no sin, after which I commit no mistake or sin. O Allah, open for me in myself guidance and sufficiency, cause me to die a death of sincerity and deliverance, bring me to the ultimate goal of Your pleasure, and make the best of my days the day I meet You, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds. O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad as You sent blessings upon Abraham, and have mercy upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad as You had mercy upon Abraham and upon the family of Abraham.

(231) O Allah, I ask You by every angel brought near, and by every purified traveler, and by every servant who is Yours on earth, and by every servant who stands for You in supererogatory and obligatory acts, and by every servant who is Yours in heaven, and by every servant to whom You have unveiled the secret of Your Most Exalted Name ⁸¹⁷, and by every servant whom You have gifted with Your most abundant good, and by every servant whom You have singled out for Your supreme truthfulness ⁸¹⁸, and by every servant who worships You in the depths of the seas and in the midst of water, and by every servant who is Yours on the mountain peaks, and by every servant whom You have made famous in the station of intimacy and boldness ⁸¹⁹, and by every servant who is Yours in seclusions, and by every servant who is Yours in the plains and deserts, and by every servant who is Yours in the wilderness and barren lands, and by every servant who is Yours in villages and cities, and by every servant who is absent in Your beauty, and by every servant who fears the awe of Your majesty, and by every servant who is humble and submissive to You, and by every servant who prostrates and bows to You, and by every servant who praises and thanks You, and by every servant who stands and remembers You, and by every servant who is content and patient with You, and by every servant who forbids and commands for You, and by every servant who bears, and by every servant who acts, and by every righteous servant, and by every sincere servant, and by every pious and God-fearing servant, and by every pure and clean servant, and by every chosen and intimate servant, and by every magnified and majestic servant, and by every servant who supplicates to You in the darkness of the night, and by every servant protected from the calamities of desires and inclinations, and by every silent and speaking servant, and by every striving and truthful servant, and by every servant who claims and trusts in You, and by every servant enamored and in love with You, and by every longing and distressed servant, and by every preceding and following servant, and by every beloved servant, and by every attracted servant ⁸²⁰, and by every overcome servant, and by every annihilated servant and every near servant, and by every spiritual servant, and by every luminous servant, and by every intending and devoted servant, and by every servant who roams in Your dominion ⁸²¹, and by every servant whom You have made aware of the treasures of Your omnipotence ⁸²², and by every servant whom You have raised to the highest stations, and by every servant for whom You have rent the veils and canopies (232), and by every servant whom You have honored with the vision of the Essence ⁸²³, and by every servant to whom You have unveiled the realities of the Attributes ⁸²⁴, that You send blessings upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad, the pupil of the eye of existences, the mirror of theophanies ⁸²⁵, the bride of the divine presences ⁸²⁶, the master of those who have passed and those who are to come, that You protect our hearts from deviation of fluctuations, guard our feet from slippery places of ambiguities, release our bonds from the captivity of desires, preserve our limbs from falling into the abysses of slips, awaken our thoughts from the slumber of heedlessness, protect our homes from sudden calamities, raise our aspirations to the high ranks, illuminate our insights with the lights of guidance, lead us on the paths of salvation, spread over us the cloak of Your covering in movements and stillness, and make us content, well-pleasing, accepted, and regarded with the eye of care, in life and after death. O Allah, O Allah, O Allah, O Lord, O Answerer of supplications, O He from whose knowledge not the weight of a particle escapes in the earth or in the heavens, O Most Generous of the generous, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds. O Allah, I ask You by this noble prophet and by the right of his great rank and measure, and by the beauty of his comely face and his immense goodness, that You do not make my breast a pasture for Satan, nor make my heart a field for him, nor make me among those whom he has stirred up with his voice and mobilized against them with his cavalry and infantry, and be for me a deliverer from his snares, a rescuer from his traps, and one who distances me from his misguidance. O Allah, he whispers in the heart and casts upon the tongue and soul what man cannot bear to mention nor the soul can spread, of that which the sublimity of Your glory and the loftiness of Your might exalt You above. So remove, O my Master, what he has inscribed and erase what he has forged, with a downpour from the clouds of Your majesty and a flood from the seas of Your victory, and draw against him the sword of Your distancing, and shoot him with the arrows of Your exclusion, and burn him with the fire of Your vengeance, and make my deliverance from him increase his sorrow and confirm his regret (233), O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds.

(235) May Allah bless him and his family, the righteous and beautiful, a blessing that perfumes the regions and the worlds, and settles its utterer in the spacious gardens ⁸²⁸, by Your grace, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds. O Allah, O He whose sea of generosity has no shore, O He whose treasuries of mercy have no end, O He on whose carpet of pardon the sins of the first and last vanish, I ask You by Your name, the High, the Most High, the Majestic, the Most Majestic, the Mighty, the Mightiest, the Great, the Greatest, the Generous, the Most Generous, the Great, the Greater, the Swift, the Near, the Responsive, in which You have stored the beginnings of Your mercy and the ends of Your might and the swiftness of Your response, O Swift to him who seeks Him, O Near to him who asks Him, O Responsive to him who calls Him, O Forbearing to him who disobeys Him, O Relenting to him who hopes in Him, that You bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, and that You forgive me, have mercy on me, relent toward me, honor me with the light of Your knowledge, overwhelm me with the abundant gifts of Your grace, and immerse me in the sea of the light of Your awe, until I emerge with the rays of its awe on my face, snatching the eyes of the envious from among the jinn and humans, blinding them and preventing them from shooting the meteor of regret ⁸²⁹ into the paper of Your grace upon me. And veil me from them with the veil of light, whose inner is light and outer is fire. And I ask You by Your name, the Light, that You veil me in the light of Your name, a veil that prevents me from every deficiency, whether it be a substance or an accident ⁸³⁰, for You are the Light of all and the Illuminator of all. And I ask You for a spiritual support ⁸³¹ by which my universal and particular powers are strengthened, so that by its beginnings I may overcome the indication of my soul over every overpowering soul. O Strong, O Compeller, O Possessor of might, O Subduer. And I ask You by what You have deposited in Gabriel, peace be upon him, of the powers of Your subjugating names, so that souls are affected by subjugation toward him, that You clothe me in this commodity ⁸³² and the like of it from that secret, so that by it I may soften every difficulty and subdue every hinderer, by Your might and power, O Possessor of firm strength. And 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, whose light You created before everything and caused it to revolve wherever You willed, and it revolved.

O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, whose light You created and it shone; You said to him: You are the Beloved, the Chosen. May Allah bless him and his family, a blessing that overflows upon us with secrets, and by which lights shine upon us, and by which He clothes us with the garment of splendor and dignity, and by which He settles us in the stations of the righteous, and by which He arranges us in the line of those whom He has chosen from among His righteous servants, and by which He forgives us the sins and burdens we have committed, and by which He protects us from the evil of the wicked and the plot of the immoral, and makes it for us a veil from the trial of the grave and the punishment of the Fire, by Your grace (237), O Allah, O Mighty, O Compeller. And may Allah bless our master Muhammad, Your beloved chosen one, and his family and his pure, most pure Companions, as long as birds warble in their thickets, and the abundant rain pours down, and a caller calls to Allah at evening and dawn, and grant abundant peace, eternally enduring, and with the endurance of the dominion of Allah, the One, the Subduer. And 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, and his followers, his inheritors, and his party, a blessing by which You have mercy on the weak, humble, negligent servant in obedience to his Lord, ashamed of his sin, fearful of the evil of his deed and his earning, so-and-so son of so-and-so, the most contemptible of Your creatures and the most abject of Your handiwork, who is not fit for Your address, and if not, whence can he be qualified to stand at Your door, were it not for the vastness of Your forbearance and his hope in Your pardon and his certainty in the intercession of Your beloved, Your chosen, Your intimate, the key to the door of Your mercy, through whose hands every good reaches, and who protects with Your Paradise from every harm. For I have asked You by his rank, O Allah, O Living, O Self-Subsisting, O Compassionate, O Benefactor, O Resurrector, O Inheritor, O Kind, O Merciful, O Compassionate, O He to whom complaint is made, O He who knows the secret and the private counsel, O He who hears and sees, O He who is in the highest horizon, O Lord of the earth and heaven, O Possessor of eternity and permanence, have mercy on him whose means have become straitened, whose doors have been closed, whose path to right guidance has become difficult, whose life has passed without opening for him the spacious divine presences and the pure springs of delight, whose days have ended while his soul is grazing in the fields of heedlessness and the lowliness of acquisition. And You are the hoped-for to remove this affliction, O He who answers when called, O Swift in reckoning, O Lord of lords, O Great of station. My Lord, do not disappoint my supplication, do not reject my request, do not leave me in my bewilderment, do not entrust me to my own strength and power, and have mercy on my weakness and poverty, for my breast has become straitened, my thought has wandered, I am bewildered in my affair, and You know (238) my secret and my public, You are the master of my benefit and harm, the powerful to relieve my distress and ease my hardship. My Lord, have mercy on him whose illness is great and whose cure is difficult, whose disease is abundant and whose remedy is scarce, whose strength has weakened, whose patience has failed, whose tears have dried, whose skin has withered, whose bones have become brittle, whose age has passed, whose life has approached its end, and whose deeds are evil. My Lord, I have no good deed to present, nor any intercessor to rely on except Your mercy and the intercession of Your Prophet, the Prophet of mercy, our master Muhammad, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. So by the honor of him with whom You are well pleased, and by the sanctity of him whom You have chosen, and by the right of him whom You have favored, and by the rank of him whom You have elevated, I ask You to bless him and grant him peace, and to forgive me, have mercy on me, and accept my repentance, and to grant me success in what You love and are pleased with, and to make me among those who are guided by his guidance, and who follow his sunna ⁸³⁴, and who are gathered under his banner, and who drink from his basin, and who are among his intercession, and who are in his company in the highest Paradise. O Allah, do not deprive me of his intercession, and do not turn me away from his basin, and do not separate me from his company, and do not make me among those who are veiled from seeing him. O Allah, bless him and grant him peace, and grant us his intercession, and make us among his followers, and resurrect us in his group, and join us with him in the abode of honor, O Most Merciful of the merciful. And praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds.

His stratagem ⁸³⁵ has failed and his trial ⁸³⁶ has intensified, while You are his refuge and his hope, his succor and his cure. O He whose bounty and giving encompass all servants, whose generosity and favors embrace all creation, here I am, Your servant, in need of what is with You, poor, awaiting Your generosity and gift, a sinner asking You for forgiveness, fearful asking You for pardon, generosity, and favor, an evil-doer, disobedient—perhaps a repentance whose lights will dispel the darkness of sorrow and disobedience, a supplicant stretching out the hand of total poverty, asking You for generosity and beneficence, fettered—perhaps his fetter will be undone and he will be released from the prison of his veil ⁸³⁷ to the vast expanse of the presence of witnessing and direct vision ⁸³⁸. O Mighty, O Merciful, O Compassionate, O Possessor of generosity and favor, mercy and forgiveness, O Lord, O Lord, O Lord, have mercy on one for whom the worlds have become straitened and whom the two weighty ones ⁸³⁹ have not comforted, who has become bewildered and perplexed, who has become a stranger even among family and homeland, agitated with no place to shelter him, restless such that the changing times do not distract him from his distress and sorrow. O Knower of what is in secrets, O He who is aware of the hidden in hearts, O He who is dominant over His servants, O He who is the First and the Last, You know our sins, so forgive them; You know our faults, so conceal them; You know our needs, so fulfill them; do not see us where You have forbidden us, and do not miss us where You have commanded us; honor us with obedience and do not humiliate us with disobedience; occupy us with You apart from others; cut off from us every obstacle that cuts us off from You; inspire us with Your remembrance, Your gratitude, and excellence in worship of You, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds.

In opinion and correctness, a prayer by which we are granted beautiful repentance, and our supplication through it be accepted and answered before You. For we have stood at Your magnificent door and sought intercession through the noble rank of Your Prophet, so do not turn us back disappointed, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds. O Allah, by the sanctity of his sublime visions ⁸⁵⁵ and the honor of his lofty landmarks ⁸⁵⁶, and the secret of his lordly effusions ⁸⁵⁷ and the subtlety of his merciful indications ⁸⁵⁸, I ask You, O my Master, to blend my flesh and blood with his noble love, and to make his remembrance the taste of my tongue and mouth by night and day, and to write his name on the pages of my heart, so that wherever I turn, he is behind me and before me, before my eyes and in front of me. O Allah, bring me near to You, make me beloved in him and make him beloved in me, and make him a means ⁸⁵⁹ for me before You, and deprive me not of the grace of his intercession and companionship, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds. O Allah, make my being inhabited by Your remembrance, my limbs submissive to Your command, and do not tempt me with other than You. Fill my heart with Your oneness and certainty, and quench my heart from the Salsabil ⁸⁶⁰ of Your flowing spring, and take me, when I die, upon Your religion. O Allah, drown all my worlds in the sea of Your vision, support my inner being with the lights of Your knowledge, and annihilate me in the eye of Your Oneness ⁸⁶¹ so that I see not, hear not, find not, nor perceive except through You, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds. O Allah, bless and grant peace to our master and lord Muhammad and to the family of our master Muhammad, the presence of sciences ⁸⁶², the secret of understandings, the interpreter of the meanings of the jewels of inscriptions ⁸⁶³, the companion of the presence of the One, the Self-Subsistent ⁸⁶⁴, the string of the arranged necklaces of realities, whom Allah gave to drink from the cup of his sealed drink ⁸⁶⁵, and raised to a station whose description is too subtle for understandings, and informed him of the treasures of the hidden secret, and preferred him over the specific and the general, and made serve him what is above the earth and beneath the stars, and adorned with the garment of piety his protected bride ⁸⁶⁶, and erased with the light of his religion the darkness of the clouds of accumulated ignorance, and delighted with his mark every pious one marked with good, and perfumed the cosmos with the breeze of his fragrant rose, and enraptured in him the core of every longing, passionate lover, and divided with his sealed sword ⁸⁶⁷ between the oppressor and the oppressed, and consoled him with His words: "And be patient for the judgment of your Lord, for indeed you are before Our eyes, and exalt [Allah] with praise of your Lord when you arise. And in the night, exalt Him and at the setting of the stars." ⁸⁶⁸ May Allah bless him and his family as long as a lover wounded by the fire of love sighs, and grant him abundant and exalted peace. And praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and there is no power nor strength except by Allah, the Exalted, the Magnificent. O Allah, I ask You by Your eternal, everlasting light, by Your perpetual, eternal might, by Your noble Muhammadan essence ⁸⁶⁹, by Ibrahim, Your intimate friend and chosen one, by Musa, Your interlocutor and confidant, by Isa, Your spirit and word, and I ask You by the scriptures of Ibrahim, the Torah of Musa, the Gospel of Isa, the Psalms of Dawud, and the Criterion ⁸⁷⁰ of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon them all), and I ask You by every revelation You revealed, by every decree You decreed, and by every name that is Yours which You sent down in Your Book or kept to Yourself in the knowledge of the unseen with You, and I ask You by Your name with which Your chosen ones and prophets called upon You and You answered them, and I ask You by Your great, greatest, mighty, mightiest name, by which whoever calls upon You, You answer, and whoever asks You by it, You give, and I ask You by all Your beautiful names, all of them, those I know and those I do not know, that You guard me with the sun of Your care from kinds of troubles, and protect me with the lights of Your awe from all others, and spread over me in His shade in this abode and in that abode, and open the door of acceptance in my face and do not close it due to bearing sins and burdens, and do not expose my secret between family and neighbors, nor disfigure my creation with Your anger by fire.

O God, make us, O our Lord, through our blessing and salutation upon him, among the victorious and secure, and among those who come to his basin and drink, and gather us with those upon whom You have bestowed favor—the prophets, the truthful, the martyrs, and the righteous—by Your favor, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O Lord of the worlds. O God, clothe me with Your garment that delights the eye, annihilate me in the sea of Your love until there is no 'between' and no 'where', connect me to You with a connection that suffers no languor nor separation, grant me a firm certainty.

No doubt or falsehood approaches it. Draw me to You and look upon me with a look of elevation ⁸⁷² from the insinuations of every hatred and defect. Honor me with the love of Your Prophet, our master Muhammad, the master of the first and the last, and make it for me with You a protection, a safeguard, and a treasure in both abodes. O Allah, bless him and all his brothers among the prophets, messengers, the near-stationed angels ⁸⁷³, the saints, the righteous, and the rest of Your believing servants, with an everlasting blessing that surpasses the blessings of those who bless, and grant them abundant, pure, and absolute peace that encompasses the peace of the Muslims. Our final call is that all praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. ²⁵⁶ O Allah, by the humility of hearts in prostration to You, my Master, without denial, and by You, O Majestic, nothing compares to You in the firm covenants, and by Your Footstool ⁸⁷⁴ adorned with light up to Your great and glorious Throne, and by what was beneath Your Throne in truth before the creation of the heavens and the sound of thunder, when You were as You have always been, a God known by [Your] Oneness ⁸⁷⁵, make me among the loving, beloved, ardent, and near-stationed ones. O Allah, O Allah, O Allah. And may Allah bless our master Muhammad, the seal of the prophets and the imam of the messengers, and his family and companions, and grant them abundant peace. And all praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. Its author, the servant of his Lord, hoping for His pardon and mercy in both abodes, Muhammad ibn al-Muʿṭī ibn Muḥammad Ṣāliḥ ibn Muḥammad ibn al-Muʿṭī ibn ʿAbd al-Khāliq al-ʿIrāqī al-ʿUmarī al-Fārūqī—may Allah fill his heart with His secrets and fill his worlds with His lights—said: I completed the composition of this divine favor and prophetic gift on the morning of Friday, the seventh of Rajab al-Fard ⁸⁷⁶ of the year 1150 ⁸⁷⁷. And may Allah bless our master and lord Muhammad, the master of the first and the last, and his family, and grant them abundant peace. It is completed by the praise of Allah, the Exalted, and His good assistance. Its scribe is a sinful, wasteful servant, a prisoner of sins, burdened with offenses, asking his reader for perhaps a prayer that will deliver him from swimming in the sea of transgressions. ²⁵⁷
