الْفَاتِحَةَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ يُحَنِّنُ رُوحَ حبِيبِهِ مُحَمَّدٍ
عَلَيْنَا، وَيُبَارِكْ فِينَا وَفِي مَنَازِلِنَا وَدِيَارِنَا
وَحَارَاتِنَا وَبُلْدَانِنَا وَزَمَنَّا وَاهْلِ زَمَنَّا، يَجْعَلْ
لَنَا وَلَهُمْ نَصِيبًا وَافِرًا مِنْ رَسُولِهِ وَمِنْ
مُصْطَفَاهْ، وَمِنْ صَفْوَتِهِ مِنْ
خَلْقِهِ، إِيـمَانًا بِهِ وَمَحَبَّةً لَهُ وَتَعْظِيمًا لَهُ
وَتَصْدِيقًا بِهِ وَبِمَا جَاءَ بِهِ، وَيَقِينًا بِمَا
بَلَّغَهُ وَإجْلَالًا لِقَدْرِهِ، وَوَلَاءً لَهُ وَرَغْبَةً
فِي لِقَائِهِ وَمُرَافَقَتِهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ
وَصَحْبِهِ وَسَلَّمْ، وَشَوْقًا إلَيْهِ وَأَنْ يُوَفِّرْ
حَظَّنَا مِنْ كُلِّ تِلْكَ الْمَوَاهِبِ وَالْمِنَنْ
وَيُصْلِحْ لَنَا السِّرَّ وَالْعَلَنْ، وَيَجْمَعْنَا
بِالْمُصْطَفَى صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ
وَصَحْبِهِ وَسَلَّمْ. وَيُثَبِّتَنَا عَلَى قَوِيـمِ
طَرِيقِهِ، وَيُثَبِّتَنَا عَلَى مِنْهَاجِهِ الْأَقْوَمْ
وَيَحْمِيَنَا بِهِ مِنَ الْآفَاتِ وَيُفَرِّجْ
كُرُوبَ أُمَّتِهِ، وَيَجْعَلَنَا وَإيَّاكُمْ فِي
خِيَارِهِمْ وَأَنْفَعِهِمْ لَهُمْ فِي عَافِيَةْ
وَإلَى حَضْرَةِ النَّبِي مُحَمَّدٍ
صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَصَحْبِهِ وَسَلَّمْ
We read Surah al-Fatihah with the intention that Allah swt makes the soul of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ love us. May Allah swt bless us, our houses, our dwellings, our place of residence, our state, our time and the members of our time. May Allah swt give us and all of them a large portion of the blessings of His Messenger, the chosen one from all of His creations, in a state of full faith in him, love for him, glorification of him, belief in him and in everything he brought, and certainty in what he conveyed, respect for his position in the sight of Allah swt, to side with him, always having high desire to meet him and accompany him in the hereafter and always longing for him. May Allah swt increase our share in all these gifts. May Allah swt improve all our external and internal matters. May Allah swt gather us with the Prophet ﷺ. May Allah swt set us on a straight path and manhaj. May Allah swt protect us from all disasters and solve all the problems of his ummah. May Allah swt make us and you all be the best of people who bring much goodness to all Muslims in a safe way. We extend these mentioned prayers through tawassul to the Prophet ﷺ, al Fatihah!

﷽
إِنَّا فَتَحْنَا لَكَ فَتْحًا مُّبِينًا ١ لِّيَغْفِرَ لَكَ ٱللّٰه
مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِن ذَنۢبِكَ وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ وَيُتِمَّ
نِعْمَتَهُۥ عَلَيْكَ وَيَهْدِيَكَ صِرَٰطًا
مُّسْتَقِيمًا ٢ وَيَنصُرَكَ اللّٰهُ نَصْرًا عَزِيزًا ٣
48:1 Indeed, We have given you, [O Muhammad], a clear victory.
48:2 That Allah may forgive you what preceded of your errors and what may follow, and complete His favour upon you and guide you to a straight path.
48:3 And Allah may aid you with a mighty victory.
لَقَدْ جَآءَكُمْ رَسُولٌ مِّنْ أَنفُسِكُمْ عَزِيزٌ
عَلَيْهِ مَا عَنِتُّمْ حَرِيصٌ عَلَيْكُم
بِٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ رَءُوفٌ رَّحِيمٌۭ ١٢٨
فَإِن تَوَلَّوْا فَقُلْ حَسْبِىَ ٱللّٰه لَآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا
هُوَ ۖ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ ۖ وَهُوَ رَبُّ ٱلْعَرْشِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ١٢٩
9:128 There has certainly come to you a Messenger from among yourselves. Grievous to him is what you suffer; [he is] concerned over you [i.e., your guidance], and to the believers is kind and merciful.
9:129 But if they turn away [O Muhammad], say, "ِAllah is sufficient for me; there is no deity except Him. On Him I have relied, and He is the Lord of the Great Throne."
إِنَّ ٱللّٰه وَمَلَـٰٓئِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى ٱلنَّبِىِّ ۚ يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا

اَلْـحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ الَّذِي هَدَانَا
بِعَبْدِهِ الْمُخْتَارِ مَنْ دَعَانَا
All praise is due to Allah, who guided us,
By His chosen slave, Muhammad, who called us.
إِلَيْهِ بِالْإِذْنِ وَقَدْ نَادَانَا
لَبَّيْكَ يَا مَنْ دَلَّنَا وَحَدَانَا
And summoned us, with divine authority, to Him,
“O Prophet - you who directed and inspired us - we are ever-present for your service!”
صَلَّى عَلَيْكَ اللّٰهُ بَارِئُكَ الَّذِي
بِكَ يَا مُشَفَّعُ خَصَّنَا وَحَبَانَا
Allah, your Creator, confers His Mercy upon you, O Muhammad.
Through you, O Possessor of intercession, He distinguised and favoured us.
مَعَ آلِكَ الْأَطْهَارِ مَعْدِنِ سِرِّكَ الْـ
ـأَسْمَى فَهُمْ سُفُنُ النَّجَاةِ حِمَانَا
ِ(And His Mercy) Upon your purified Family, the repository of your sanctified secret,
For they are vessels of our deliverance and sanctuary.
وَعَلَى صَحَابَتِكَ الْكِــــرَامِ حُمَـاةِ دِيـ
ـنِكَ أَصْبَحُوا لِوَلَائِـهِ عُنْوَانَا
(And His Mercy) Upon your illustrious Companions, the defenders of your religion,
The standard bearers of true devotion to him (Muhammad).
وَالتَّابِعِينَ لَـهُمْ بِصِدْقٍ مَا حَدَى
حَادِي الْمَوَدَّةِ هَيَّجَ الْأَشْجَانَا
(And His Mercy) Upon all who follow them with sincerity,
For as long as the camel driver spurs onward his caravan with melodies of love and earnest yearning.
وَاللّٰهِ مَا ذُكِرَ الْحـَبِيبُ لَدَى الْمُحِبْ
إِلَّا وَأَضْحَى وَالِـهًا نَشْوَانَا
By Allah, never is the Beloved mentioned in the presence of the true lover,
Except that he becomes spellbound with love, enraptured.
أَيْنَ الْمُحِبُّونَ الَّذِينَ عَلَيْهِمُ
بَذْلُ النُّفُوسِ مَعَ النَّفَائِسِ هَانَا
Where are the true lovers who find it trivial to sacrifice themselves,
And all that is precious for the sake of their beloved?
لَا يَسْمَعُونَ بِذِكْرِ طٰهَ الْمُصْطَفَى
إِلَّا بِهِ انْتَعَشُوا وَأَذْهَبَ رَانَا
Never do they hear a mention of Taha, the Chosen One,
Save that his mention clears the stain on their hearts and they are enlivened.
فَاهْتَاجَتِ الْأَرْوَاحُ تَشْتَاقُ اللِّقَا
وَتَـحِنُّ تَسْأَلُ رَبَّـهَا الرِّضْوَانَا
The souls have stirred in expectation and yearning for the meeting with Muhammad.
They are beset by longing and they beseech their Lord for His Pleasure.
حَالُ الْمُحِبِّينَ كَذَا فَاسْـمـَعْ إِلَى
سِيَرِ الْمُشَفَّعِ وَارْهِفِ الْآذَانَا
Such is the condition of the true lovers,
So listen closely to the biography of the one whose intercession is accepted.
وَانْـصِتْ إِلَـى أَوْصَافِ طٰـهَ الْمُجْـتَـبَـى
وَاحْـضِـرْ لِـقَلْـبِـكَ يَــمْـتَلـِـئْ وِجْـدَانَـا
And listen attentively to the description of Taha, the Elected one.
Come with a presence of heart, and it will be filled with ecstasy and yearning.

عَلَى حَبِيبِكَ مَنْ إِلَيْكَ دَعَانَا
Our Lord! Send Your Blessings and Peace perpetually,

نَـبَّأَنَا اللّٰهُ فَقَالَ جَاءَكُمْ
نُورٌ فَسُبْحَانَ الَّذِي أَنْبَانَا
Allah has announced to us, saying:
How transcendent is he who informed us.
وَالنُّورُ طٰهَ عَبْدُهُ مَنَّ بِهِ
فِي ذِكْرِهِ أَعْظِمْ بِهِ مَنَّانَا
And the light is Taha - His slave, bestowed by Him as a grace upon us.
As mentioned in His reminder, the Qur’an. How magnificent is He as a Bestower of Gifts!
هُوَ رَحـْمَةُ الْمَوْلَى تَأَمَّلْ قَوْلَهُ
فَلْيَفْرَحُوا وَاغْدُ بِهِ فَرْحَانَا
He, Muhammad, is the mercy of our Master, ponder in His word: “Rejoice.”
Set out on your journey of happiness with him.
مُسْتَمْسِكًا بِالْعُرْوَةِ الْوُثْقَى وَمُعْتَصِمًا
بِـحَبْلِ اللّٰهِ مَنْ أَنْشَانَـا
While holding fast to the ever-reliable bond,
And seek shelter with the rope of Allah, our Originator.
وَاسْتَشْعِرَنْ أَنْوَارَ مَنْ قِيلَ مَتَى
كُنْتَ نَـبِـيًّـا، قَالَ آدَمُ كَانَا
Experience the illuminations of the one, who when asked:
”When were you a prophet?”. He replied: “Since Adam was…
بَيْنَ التُّــرَابِ وَبَيْنَ مَاءٍ فَاسْتَفِقْ
مِنْ غَفْلَةٍ عَنْ ذَا وَكُنْ يَقْظَانَا
“…Between earth and water!”.
Awaken from your heedlessness of this, and be mindful.
وَاعْبُرْ إِلَى أَسْرَارِ رَبـِّي لَـمْ يَزَلْ
يَــنْقُلُــنِـي بَيْنَ الْـخِيَارِ مُصَانَا
Pay heed to the secrets within the Prophet’s words.
My Lord always placed me in the most esteemed of lineages, safeguarded.
لَـمْ تَفْتَـرِقْ مِنْ شُعْبَتَيْنِ إِلَّا أَنَا
فِي خَيْرِهَا حَتَّى بُرُوزِيَ آنَا
For never did a lineage branch in two except that
I was in the nobler line, until the time arrived for my emergence.
فَأَنَا خِيَارٌ مِنْ خِيَارٍ قَدْ خَرَجْـتُ
مِنْ نِكَاحٍ لِي إِلٰــهِـيَ صَانَا
For I am the select of the select; I have come
Through the chaste lineages of marriage, preserved for me by my Lord.
طَهَّرَهُ اللّٰهُ حَـمَاهُ اخْتَارَهُ
وَمَا بَرَى كَمِثْلـِـهِ إِنْسَـانَـا
Allah has purified him, preserved him, chosen him,
And He has never created a human being of equal compare.
وَبـِحُبِّـهِ وَبِذِكْرِهِ وَالنَّصْرِ وَالتَّــوْقِـيـرِ
رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ قَدْ أَوْصَـانَـا
And with his love, his remembrance, his assistance and his reverence -
The Lord of the Great Throne has commanded us.
يَا رَبَّنَا صَلِّ وَسَلِّمْ دَائِمًا
عَلَى حَبِيبِكَ مَنْ إِلَيْكَ دَعَانَا
Our Lord! Send Your Blessings and Peace perpetually,
Upon Your Beloved, the one who called us to You.

هٰذَا وَقَدْ نَشَرَ الْإِلٰهُ نُعُوتَهُ
فِي الْكُتْبِ بَيَّنَهَا لَنَا تِبْيَانَا
Furthermore, the Divine has further publicised his attributes,
In the revealed scriptures and has clearly elucidated them to us.
أَخَذَ مِيثَاقَ النَّبِيِّينَ لَمَا
آتَيْتُكُمْ مِنْ حِكْمَةٍ إِحْسَانَا
Allah took the covenant from the Prophets, saying:
What I have given you of wisdom as a benefaction from Me.
وَجَاءَكُمْ رَسُولُنَا لَتُؤْمِنُنَّ
وَتَنْصُرُونَ وَتُصْبِحُونَ أَعْوَانَا
And then Our Messenger Muhammad comes to you, you must believe in him,
Aid him, and become his ardent helpers.
قَدْ بَشَّرُوا أَقْوَامَهُمْ بِالْمُصْطَفَى
أَعْظِمْ بِذٰلِكَ رُتْبَةً وَمَكَانَا
The Messengers proclaimed to their people the tidings of the arrival of the Chosen One.
How majestic is that as a station and status!
فَهُوَ وَإِنْ جَاءَ الْأَخِيرُ مُقَدَّمٌ
يَـمْشُونَ تَـحْتَ لِوَاءِ مَنْ نَادَانَا
And he, though sent last, will be foremost on the Day of Rising.
All the Prophets will walk under the standard of he who called us.
يَا أُمَّةَ الْإِسْلَامِ أَوَّلُ شَافِعٍ
وَمُشَفَّعٍ أَنَا قَطُّ لَا أَتَوَانَــى
O Community of Islam! The first to intercede and the first
Whose intercession will be accepted is me! I will not rest!
حَتَّى أُنَادَى ارْفَعْ وَسَلْ تُعْطَ وَقُلْ
يُسْمَعْ لِقَوْلِكَ نَـجْمُ فَخْرِكَ بَانَا
Until it will be said to me, “Rise from prostration! Ask, and you will be given.
Speak, and you will be heard. For the constellation of your glory has now become manifest.”
وَلِوَاءُ حَمْدِ اللّٰهِ جَلَّ بِيَدِي
وَلَأَوَّلًا آتِي أَنَا الْجِنَانَا
And the standard of the praise of Allah, the Transcendant, will rest in my hand.
The first to enter Paradise will be me.
وَأَكْرَمُ الْـخَلْقِ عَلَى اللّٰهِ أَنَا
فَلَقَدْ حَبَاكَ اللّٰهُ مِنْهُ حَنَانَا
I am the most honoured of Allah’s creation.
Allah has most certainly endowed you, O Muhammad, with tenderness from Himself.
وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ فَتَرْضَى جَلَّ مِنْ
مُعْطٍ تَقَاصَرَ عَنْ عَطَاهُ نُـهَـانَا
Soon your Lord will give you, and you will be satisfied.
Far exalted is He as a Giver - our intellects are incapable of comprehending His gifts.
بِاللّٰهِ كَرِّرْ ذِكْرَ وَصْفِ مُـحَمَّدٍ
كَيْمَا تُزِيحَ عَنِ الْقُلُوبِ الرَّانَا
By Allah, recollect the attributes of Muhammad time and time again,
For they will remove the corrosive stain from the hearts.
يَا رَبَّنَا صَلِّ وَسَلِّمْ دَائِمًا
عَلَى حَبِيبِكَ مَنْ إِلَيْكَ دَعَانَا
Our Lord! Send Your Blessings and Peace perpetually,
Upon Your Beloved, the one who called us to You.

For the light of Taha suffused Abdul Muttalib’s face,
And manifested upon his purified son, Abdullah, for all to witness.

And distanced from her all injury, distress and sorrow.

And there is no power and no might except with Allāh the Most High, the Supreme; for every glance ever taken, the amount equal to His creations; what satisfies Him; the ornaments on His Throne and the amount of ink (used to write) His words.
وَتَجَلَّتِ الْأَنْـوَارُ مِنْ كُلِّ الْجِهَاتِ
فَوَقْتُ مِيلَادِ الْمُشَفَّعِ حَانَا
The illuminations shone forth from all sides,
For the appointed birth of the one of accepted intercession was now imminent.
وَقُبَيْلَ فَجْرٍ أَبْرَزَتْ شـَمْسَ الْـهُدَى
ظَهَرَ الْحَبِيبُ مُكَرَّمًا وَمُصَانَا
Moments before dawn, she gave birth to the resplendent sun of guidance.
The Beloved, ennobled and safeguarded, was born.

MAHALLUL QIYAM
صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدْ
(2x) صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمْ
O Allah, send Your Mercy upon Muhammad.
O Allah, send Your Mercy and Peace upon him.
يَانَبِي سَلَامْ عَلَيْكَ يَارَسُولْ سَلَامْ عَلَيْكَ
يَاحَبِيبْ سَلَامْ عَلَيْكَ {يَا رَسُولَ اللّٰه}
صَلَوَاتُ اللّٰهْ عَلَيْكَ
O Prophet! Peace be upon you. O Messenger! Peace be upon you.
O Beloved of Allah! Peace be upon you.
May Allah’s blessings be upon you.
أَبْرَزَ اللّٰهُ الْمُشَفَّعْ * صَاحِبَ الْقَدْرِ الْمُرَفَّعْ
فَمَلَا النُّورُ النَّوَاحِي {بِرَسُولِ اللّٰه}
عَمَّ كُلَّ الْكَوْنِ أَجْمَعْ
Allah has manifested the Intercessor, Possessor of the Elevated Station.
Illumination filled the horizons,
And encompassed the entire universe.
نُكِّسَتْ أَصْنَامُ شِرْكٍ * وَبِنَا الشِّرْكِ تَصَدَّعْ
وَدَنَا وَقْتُ الْـهِدَايَةْ {بِرَسُولِ اللّٰه}
وَحِمـَى الْكُفْرِ تَزَعْزَعْ
The icones of polytheism have been dethroned, and its edifice was rent apart.
The hour of guidance has drawn near,
And the sactuary of disbelief convulsed.
مَرْحَبًا أَهْلًا وَسَهْلًا * بِكَ يَاذَا الْقَدْرِ الْأَرْفَعْ
يَا إِمَامَ اهْلِ الرِّسَالَةْ {يَا رَسُولَ اللّٰه}
مَنْ بِهِ الْآفَاتُ تُدْفَعْ
Welcome, welcome O Possessor of the most sublime stature.
O Master of the folk of revelation,
The one by whom all evil is repelled.
أَنْتَ فِي الْحَشْرِ مَلَاذٌ * لَكَ كُلُّ الْـخَلْقِ تَفْزَعْ
وَيُنَادُونَ تَرَى مَا {يَا رَسُولَ اللّٰه}
قَدْ دَهَى مِنْ هَوْلٍ أَفْظَعْ
You are an asylum on the Day of Gathering. To you, all creation will flee seeking refuge.
They address you, saying: “Do you see, -
What has befallen of unspeakable terror?”
مَرْحَبًا مَرْحَبًا يَا نُورَ عَيْنِي * مَرْحَبًا مَرْحَبًا جَدَّ الْحُسَيْنِي
مَرْحَبًا فَلَهَا أَنْتَ فَتَسْجُدْ * مَرْحَبًا وَتُنَادَى اشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ
Welcome! O light of my eyes! Welcome! O Grandfather of Husayn. (x2)
For the intercession, you will prostrate -
And be addressed: “Intercede, for your intercession is accepted.”
مَرْحَبًا مَرْحَبًا يَا نُورَ عَيْنِي * مَرْحَبًا مَرْحَبًا جَدَّ الْحُسَيْنِي
مَرْحَبًا فَعَلَيْكَ اللّٰهُ صَلَّى * مَرْحَبًا مَا بَدَى النُّورُ وَشَعْشَعْ
Welcome! O the light of my eyes! Welcome! Grandfather of Husayn.
Allah has sent His Mercy upon you -
For as long as there is light with resplendent rays.
مَرْحَبًا مَرْحَبًا يَا نُورَ عَيْنِيْ * مَرْحَبًا مَرْحَبًا جَدَّ الْحُسَيْنِي
مَرْحَبًا وَبِكَ الرَّحْـمٰنَ نَسْأَلْ * مَرْحَبًا وَاِلٰهُ الْعَرْشِ يَسْمَعْ
Welcome! O light of my eyes! Welcome! Grandfather of Husayn.
And by you, we ask the Entirely Merciful,
And the Lord of the Throne is attentive to our supplication.

وَادْفَعِ الْآفَاتِ وَارْفَعْ يَا اللّٰه
My Lord, forgive my sins, by the blessing of the Guide and the Intercessor.
Avert from us all calamities,
And repel and remove all afflictions.

O Allah, send Your Mercy upon Muhamamd. O Allah, send Your Mercy and Peace upon him. (x2)
Quench our thirst, O Lord, and give us succour,
By a life-giving downpour of rain.
صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدْ * صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمْ

O Allah, send Your Mercy upon Muhammad. O Allah, send Your Mercy and Peace upon him.
Culminate my life with excellence and goodness,
And beautify my aftermath and my final return.

The one in whom all perfection has gathered.

أَحْمَدَ الطُّهْرَ وَآلِهْ * وَالصَّحَابَةْ مَا السَّنَاشَعْ
O Allah, send Your Mercy upon Muhammad. O Allah, send Your Mercy and Peace upon him.
Ahmad, the Immaculate, and his Family
And the Companions, for as long as there are rays of resplendence.

CLOSING DOA
اَللّٰهُمَّ صَـلِّ وَسَـلِّمْ وَبَارِكْ عَلَـيْهِ وَعَلَىٰ آلِـهْ
وَلَقَدْ أَشَرْتُ لِنَعْتِ مَنْ أَوْصَافُهُ
تُحْيِي الْقُلُوبَ تُـهَيِّجُ الْأَشْجَانَا
I have indeed alluded to the description of the one whose attributes
Resuscitate the hearts and inflame the fire of longing.
وَاللّٰهُ قَدْ أَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ فَمَا يُسَاوِي
الْقَوْلُ مِنَّا أَوْ يَكُونُ ثَنَانَا
Allah has most certainly extolled him
So what are our statements of praise in similitude to His?
لَكِنَّ حُبًّا فِي السَّرَائِرِ قَدْ دَعَا
لِمَدِيحِ صَفْوَةِ رَبِّنَا وَحَدَانَا
But it is love established in the hearts that inspire
The praise of the purest of our Lord’s creation.
وَإِذِ امْتَزَجْنَا بِالْمَوَدَّةِ هٰهُنَا
نَرْفَعُ أَيْدِي فَقْرِنَا وَرَجَانَا
Now, when we are imbued with the love of Muhammad,
We raise the hands of our destitution and hope.
لِلْوَاحِدِ الْأَحَدِ الْعَلِيِّ إِلٰـهِنَا
مُتَوَسِّلِينَ بِمَنْ إِلَيْهِ دَعَانَا
To our Lord, the One, the Unique, the Most High,
Petitioning by the one who called us to Him.
مُخْــتَارِهِ وَحَبِيــبِهِ وَصَفِيِّهِ
زَيْنِ الْوُجُودِ بِهِ الْإلٰهُ حَبَانَا
His Chosen One, His Beloved, His Purest,
The Embellishment of existence, the one by whom our Lord has favoured us.
يَا رَبَّنَا يَا رَبَّنَا يَا رَبَّنَا
بِالْمُصْطَفَىٰ اقْبَلْنَا أَجِبْ دَعْوَانَا
Our Lord, our Lord, our Lord,
By the Chosen One, accept us and answer our supplication.
أَنْتَ لَنَا أَنْتَ لَنَا يَا ذُخْرَنَا
فِي هَذِهِ الدُّنْيَا وَفِي أُخْرَانَا
You are sufficient for us. You are sufficient for us.
You are our source of all treasure in this world and in the hereafter.
أَصْلِحْ لَنَا الْأَحْوَالَ وَاغْفِرْ ذَنْبَنَا
وَلَا تُؤَاخِذْ رَبِّ إِنْ أَخْطَانَا
Rectify our states, forgive our sins,
And do not hold us accountable, O Lord, when we err.
وَاسْلُكْ بِنَا فِي نَـهْجِ طٰهَ الْمُصْطَفَى
ثَبِّتْ عَلَىٰ قَدَمِ الْـحَبِيبِ خُطَانَا
Lead us down the way of Taha, the Chosen One,
And establish us in treading the path of the Beloved.
أَرِنَا بِفَضْلٍ مِنْكَ طَلْعَةَ أَحْمَدٍ
فِي بَــهْجَةٍ عَيْنُ الرِّضَى تَرْعَانَا
Show us, by Your grace, the constitution of Ahmad,
in splendour. May Your Divine satisfaction preserve us.
وَارْبُطْ بِهِ فِي كُلِّ حَالٍ حَبْلَنَا
وَحِبَالَ مَنْ وَدَّ وَمَنْ وَالَانَا
Strengthen our bond to him in every state,
And the bond of those who love and support us.
وَالْمُحْسِنِينَ وَمَنْ أَجَابَ نِدَاءَنَا
وَذَوِي الْـحُـقُوقِ وَطَالِبًا أَوْصَانَا
And those who work goodness, and those who responded to our call,
And those who have entitlements over us, and the one who offers us sincere counsel.
وَالْـحَاضِرِينَ وَسَاعِيًا فِي جَمْعِنَا
هَا نَحْنُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ أَنْتَ تَرَانَا
And those who are present; and those who strive to unite us.
Here we are, before You, and truly You see us.
وَلَقَدْ رَجَوْنَاكَ فَحَقِّقْ سُؤْلَنَا
وَاسْـمـَعْ بِفَضْلِكَ يَا سَـمِيعُ دُعَانَا
We are truly expectant of Your grace, so fulfil our request.
Hear us, by Your grace, O You who hears our supplication.
وَانْصُرْ بِنَا سُنَّةَ طٰهَ فِي بِقَاعِ الْأَرْضِ
وَاقْمَعْ كُلَّ مَنْ عَادَانَا
Use us as instruments in awarding victory to the sunnah of Taha throughout the earth,
And restrain all who aggress against us.
وَانْظُرْ إِلَيْنَا وَاسْقِنَا كَأْسَ الْـهَـنـَا
وَاشْفِ وَعَافِ عَاجِلًا مَرْضَانَا
Look upon us with Divine consideration, grant us to drink from the cup of purity,
Heal and confer complete well-being swiftly on our ill.
وَاقْضِ لَنَا الْـحَاجَاتِ وَاحْسِنْ خَتْمَنَا
عِنْدَ الْمَمَاتِ وَأَصْلِحَنْ عُقْبَانَا
Fulfil our needs, beautify our last moments at the time of death,
And rectify the consequences of our affairs.
يَا رَبِّ وَاجْـمَعْنَا وَأَحْبَابًا لَنَا
(3x) فِي دَارِكَ الْفِرْدَوْسِ يَا رَجْوَانَا
O Lord, gather us and our loved ones
In Your Abode of Firdaus, O You Who are our only Hope. (x3)
بِالْمُصْطَفَى صَلِّ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ
مَا حَرَّكَتْ رِيحُ الصَّبَا أَغْصَانَا
By the Chosen One, send Your Mercy upon him and his Family
As long as the East Wind sways the branches and boughs.

وَسَلَامٌ عَلَى الْمُرْسَلِينَ ١٨١
وَالْـحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ ١٨٢
Transcendent is your Lord, the Lord of Might, beyond anything they describe.
And peace be upon the Messengers. And praise be to Allah, the Lord of all the worlds.
[As-Saffat 180-182]
إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ وَمَلَـٰٓئِكَتَهُۥ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى ٱلنَّبِىِّۚ
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ صَلُّوا۟ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلِّمُوا۟ تَسْلِيمًا ٥٦
Indeed, Allah and His angels confer blessings upon the Prophet.
O you who believe, ask Allah to bless him and confer upon him a worthy salutation.
[Al-Ahzab 33:56]
اَلصَّلَاةُ وَالسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا سَيِّدَ الْمُرْسَلِينْ
اَلصَّلَاةُ وَالسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا خَاتَمَ النَّبِيِّينْ
اَلصَّلَاةُ وَالسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا مَنْ أَرْسَلَكَ اللّٰهُ
رَحْمَةً لِّلْعَالَمِين. وَرَضِيَ اللّٰهُ تَعَالَى عَنْ
أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللّٰهِ أَجْمَعِين، آمِين
Blessings and Peace be upon you, O Master of the Messengers,
Blessings and Peace be upon you, O Seal of the Prophets,
Blessings and Peace be upon you, O one who Allah sent as a mercy to the entire universe,
And may Allah, the Exalted, be pleased with all the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Amin.
