اَللَّهُمَّ إِنَّ هٰذَا ٱلشَّهْرَ ٱلْمُبَارَكَ ٱلَّذِي أُنْزِلَ فِيهِ ٱلْقُرْآنُ وَجُعِلَ هُدَىً لِلنَّاسِ وَبَيِّنَاتٍ مِنَ ٱلْهُدَىٰ وَٱلْفُرْقَانِ قَدْ حَضَرَ فَسَلِّمْنَا فِيهِ وَسَلَّمْهُ لَنَا وَتَسَلَّمْهُ مِنَّا فِي يُسْرٍ مِنْكَ وَعَافِيَةٍ يَا مَنْ أَخَذَ ٱلْقَلِيلَ وَشَكَرَ ٱلْكَثِيرَ ٱقْبَلْ مِنِّي ٱلْيَسِيرَ اَللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِي إِلَىٰ كُلِّ خَيْرٍ سَبِيلاً وَمِنْ كُلِّ مَا لاَ تُحِبُّ مَانِعاً يَا أَرْحَمَ ٱلرَّاحِمِينَ يَا مَنْ عَفَا عَنِّي وَعَمَّا خَلَوْتُ بِهِ مِنَ ٱلسَّيِّئَاتِ يَا مَنْ لَمْ يُؤَاخِذْنِي بِٱرْتِكَابِ ٱلْمَعَاصِي عَفْوَكَ عَفْوَكَ عَفْوَكَ يَا كَرِيمُ إِلٰهِي وَعَظْتَنِي فَلَمْ أَتَّعِظْ وَزَجَرْتَنِي عَنْ مَحَارِمِكَ فَلَمْ أَنْزَجِرْ فَمَا عُذْرِي فَٱعْفُ عَنِّي يَا كَرِيمُ عَفْوَكَ عَفْوَكَ اَللَّهُمَّ إِنّي أَسْأَلُكَ ٱلرَّاحَةَ عِنْدَ ٱلْمَوْتِ وَٱلْعَفْوَ عِنْدَ ٱلْحِسَابِ عَظُمَ ٱلذَّنْبُ مِنْ عَبْدِكَ فَلْيَحْسُنِ ٱلتَّجَاوُزُ مِنْ عِنْدِكَ يَا أَهْلَ ٱلتَّقْوَىٰ وَيَا أَهْلَ ٱلْمَغْفِرَةِ عَفْوَكَ عَفْوَكَ اَللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي عَبْدُكَ ٱبْنُ عَبْدِكَ ٱبْنُ أَمَتِكَ ضَعِيفٌ فَقِيرٌ إِلَىٰ رَحْمَتِكَ وَأَنْتَ مُنْزِلُ ٱلْغِنَىٰ وَٱلْبَرَكَةِ عَلَىٰ ٱلْعِبَادِ قَاهِرٌ مُقْتَدِرٌ أَحْصَيْتَ أَعْمَالَهُمْ وَقَسَمْتَ أَرْزَاقَهُمْ وَجَعَلْتَهُمْ مُخْتَلِفَةً أَلْسِنَتُهُمْ وَأَلْوَانُهُمْ خَلْقاً مِنْ بَعْدِ خَلْقٍ وَلاَ يَعْلَمُ ٱلْعِبَادُ عِلْمَكَ وَلاَ يَقْدِرُ ٱلْعِبَادُ قَدْرَكَ وَكُلُّنَا فَقِيرٌ إِلَىٰ رَحْمَتِكَ فَلاَ تَصْرِفْ عَنِّي وَجْهَكَ وَٱجْعَلْنِي مِنْ صَالِحِي خَلْقِكَ فِي ٱلْعَمَلِ وَٱلأَمَلِ وَٱلْقَضَاءِ وَٱلْقَدَرِ اَللَّهُمَّ أَبْقِنِي خَيْرَ ٱلْبَقَاءِ وَأَفْنِنِي خَيْرَ ٱلْفَنَاءِ عَلَىٰ مُوَالاةِ أَوْلِيَائِكَ وَمُعَادَاةِ أَعْدَائِكَ وَٱلرَّغْبَةِ إِلَيْكَ وَٱلرَّهْبَةِ مِنْكَ وَٱلْخُشُوعِ وَٱلْوَفَاءِ وَٱلتَّسْلِيمِ لَكَ وَٱلتَّصْدِيقِ بِكِتَابِكَ وَٱتِّبَاعِ سُنَّةِ رَسُولِكَ اَللَّهُمَّ مَا كَانَ فِي قَلْبِي مِنْ شَكٍّ أَوْ رِيبَةٍ أَوْ جُحُودٍ أَوْ قُنُوطٍ أَوْ فَرَحٍ أَوْ بَذَخٍ أَوْ بَطَرٍ أَوْ خُيَلاءَ أَوْ رِيَاءٍ أَوْ سُمْعَةٍ أَوْ شِقَاقٍ أَوْ نِفَاقٍ أَوْ كُفْرٍ أَوْ فُسُوقٍ أَوْ عِصْيَانٍ أَوْ عَظَمَةٍ أَوْ شَيْءٍ لاَ تُحِبُّ فَأَسْأَلُكَ يَا رَبِّ أَنْ تُبَدِّلَنِي مَكَانَهُ إِيـمَاناً بِوَعْدِكَ وَوَفَاءً بِعَهْدِكَ وَرِضاً بِقَضَائِكَ وَزُهْداً فِي ٱلدُّنْيَا وَرَغْبَةً فِيمَا عِنْدَكَ وَأَثَرَةً وَطُمَأْنِينَةً وَتَوْبَةً نَصُوحاً أَسْأَلُكَ ذٰلِكَ يَا رَبَّ ٱلْعَالَمِينَ إِلٰهِي أَنْتَ مِنْ حِلْمِكَ تُعْصَىٰ فَكَأَنَّكَ لَمْ تُرَ وَمِنْ كَرَمِكَ وَجُودِكَ تُطَاعُ فَكَأَنَّكَ لَمْ تُعْصَ وَأَنَا وَمَنْ لَمْ يَعْصِكَ سُكَّانُ أَرْضِكَ فَكُنْ عَلَيْنَا بِٱلْفَضْلِ جَوَاداً وَبِٱلْخَيْرِ عَوَّاداً يَا أَرْحَمَ ٱلرَّاحِمِينَ وَصَلَّىٰ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِهِ صَلاةً دَائِمَةً لاَ تُحْصَىٰ وَلاَ تُعَدُّ وَلاَ يَقْدِرُ قَدْرَهَا غَيْرُكَ يَا أَرْحَمَ ٱلرَّاحِمِينَ

English translation

O Allah, this blessed month in which the Qur'an was revealed and was made guidance for people and clear proofs of the guidance, and the Criterion (of right and wrong), has commenced. So, (please) keep us out of blemish during it, keep it sound for us, and receive it from us with means of easiness and good health from You. O He Who has accepted the little (deed) and thanked for the much, (please) accept from me the little (deed). O Allah, I beseech You to make for me a path to every decency, and to make for me a barrier against everything that You do not like. O most Merciful of all those who show mercy! O He Who has pardoned me and overlooked the misdeeds that I have committed secretly! O He Who has not punished me for my committing acts of disobedience to Him! I seek Your pardon, I seek Your pardon, I seek Your pardon, O All-generous! O my God, You advised me, but I have not followed Your advice and You rebuked me for violating that which You have deemed forbidden, but I have not stopped. Now, what is my excuse? So, (please) pardon me, O All-generous! I seek Your pardon, I seek Your pardon! O Allah, I beseech You for rest at death and for pardon at calling to account. Great is the sin of Your servant; so, let Your overlooking him be excellent. O He Who is worth being feared and is worth forgiving! I seek Your pardon, I seek Your pardon. O Allah, I am Your servant and the son of Your servant and Your she-servant and I am weak and in need for Your mercy; while You are the Pourer of wealth and bless on the servants (of You), You are omnipotent and full of power, You have recorded all their (i.e. Your servants) deeds, decided the sustenance of each one them, and made them of different languages and colors in different stages of creation. Your servants can never attain Your knowledge and Your servants can never recognize the real estimate that is due to You. All of us are needy for Your mercy. So, (please) do not turn Your Face away from me and include me with the virtuous creatures of You in deeds, hopes, and Your decisions (for me). O Allah, (please) keep me alive in the best manner of living, decide for me to die in the best manner of death keeping loyal to Your representatives, incurring the enmity of Your enemies, keeping desiring for You, fearing from You, and submitting to You, being loyal to You, complying with You, believing in Your Book, and following Your Prophet’s instructions. O Allah, as for whatever I bear in my heart, including suspicion, doubt, denial, despair, (excessive) joy, lavish expenditure or recklessness, pride, arrogance, ostentation, discord, hypocrisy, unbelief, licentiousness, disobedience, conceit, or anything else that You do not like; I thus beseech You, O my Lord, to substitute all that with belief in Your promise, fulfillment of my covenant to You, satisfaction with what You decide for me, indifference to the worldly pleasures, desire for that which You have, altruism, tranquility, and sincere repentance. I beseech You for all that, O Lord of the worlds! O my God, because You are so forbearing, You are disobeyed as if You are not present, and because You are so generous and magnanimous, You are obeyed as if You have not been disobeyed at all. Both those who have not disobeyed You and I are the inhabitants of Your lands; so, (please) confer magnanimously upon us with Your favors and always refer to us with Your goodness. O most Merciful of all those who show mercy! May Allah bless Muhammad and his Household with endless blessings that are innumerable, uncountable, and none can do it save You. O most Merciful of all those who show mercy!
