24. Supplication said after the last tashahhud and before salam

 

 .24الدعاء بعد التشهد الأخير وقبل السلام

.

(55)  

 ‘O Allah, I take refuge in You from the punishment of the grave, from the torment of the Fire, from the trials and tribulations of life and death and from the evil affliction of Al-Maseeh Ad-Dajjal.’

Al-Maseeh Ad-Dajjal: among the great signs of the last hour and the greatest trials to befall mankind, which every Prophet has warned about.  Most of mankind will follow him. He will appear from Asbahan, Iran at the time when the Muslims will conquer Constantinople.  He will be given special powers and will make the truth seem false and vice versa.  He will claim to be righteous and then he will claim prophethood and finally, divinity.  From his features is that he will be blind in his right eye which is a definite proof that contradicts his claim to be Allah as it is a sign of imperfection.  The word Kafir will be written between his eyes which every believer, literate or illiterate will recognise.

 (55) Al-Lahumma 'Innī 'A`ūdhu Bika Min `Adhābi Al-Qabri, Wa Min `Adhābi Jahannama, Wa Min Fitnati Al-Maĥyā Wa Al-Mamāti, Wa Min Sharri Fitnati Al-Masīĥi Ad-Dajjāli.
(55) اللَّهمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنْ عَذَابِ القَبْرِ، وَمِنْ عَذَابِ جَهَنَّمَ، وَمِنْ فِتْنَةِ المَحْيَا وَالمَمَاتِ، وَمِنْ شَرِّ فِتْنَةِ المَسِيْحِ الدَّجَّالِ.

(56)  

 ‘O Allah, I take refuge in You from the punishment of the grave, and I take refuge in You from the temptation and trial of Al-Maseeh Ad-Dajjal, and I take refuge in You from the trials and tribulations of life and death.  O Allah, I take refuge in You from sin and debt.’

 (56) Al-Lahumma 'Innī 'A`ūdhu Bika Min `Adhābi Al-Qabri, Wa 'A`ūdhu Bika Min Fitnati Al-Masīĥi Ad-Dajjāli, Wa 'A`ūdhu Bika Min Fitnati Al-Maĥyā Wa Al-Mamāti. Al-Lahumma 'Innī 'A`ūdhu Bika Mina Al-Ma'thami Wa Al-Maghrami.
 		 (56) اللَّهمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنْ عَذَابِ القَبْرِ، وَأَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ المَسِيْحِ الدَّجَّالِ، وَأَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ المَحْيَا وَالمَمَاتِ. اللَّهمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنَ المَأْثَمِ وَالمَغْرَمِ.
 

(57)  

 ‘O Allah, I have indeed oppressed my soul excessively and none can forgive sin except You, so forgive me a forgiveness from Yourself and have mercy upon me.  Surely, You are The Most-Forgiving, The Most-Merciful.’

From Yourself: i.e. from Your innermost grace without deserving it and a forgiveness which is befitting to your tremendous generosity.

 (57) Al-Lahumma 'Innī Žalamtu Nafsī Žulmāan Kathīrāan Wa Lā Yaghfiru Adh-Dhunūba 'Illā 'Anta, Fāghfir Lī Maghfiratan Min `Indika Wa Arĥamnī 'Innaka 'Anta Al-Ghafūru Ar-Raĥīmu.
 (57) اللَّهمَّ إِنِّي ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي ظُلْما ً كَثِيْرا ً وَلا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوْبَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ، فَاغْفِر لِي مَغْفِرَة ً مِنْ عِنْدِكَ وَارْحَمْنِي، إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الغَفُوْرُ الرَّحِيْمُ.
 

(58)  

 ‘O Allah, forgive me for those sins which have come to pass as well as those which shall come to pass, and those I have committed in secret as well as those I have made public, and where I have exceeded all bounds as well as those things about which You are more knowledgeable. You are Al-Muqaddim and Al-Mu-akhkhir.  None has the right to be worshipped except You.’

Meaning of Al-Muqaddim and Al-Mu-akhkhir: Allah puts forward and favours whom He wills from amongst His creation just as He defers and holds back whom He wills in accordance to His wisdom.  E.g.  Favouring man over the rest of creation, favouring the Prophets over the rest of mankind, favouring Muhammad r over all the Prophets and Messengers…etc.

 (58) Al-Lahumma Aghfir Lī Mā Qaddamtu Wa Mā 'Akhkhartu, Wa Mā 'Asrartu Wa Mā 'A`lantu, Wa Mā 'Asraftu, Wa Mā 'Anta 'A`lamu Bihi Minnī. 'Anta Al-Muqaddimu Wa 'Anta Al-Mu'uakhkhiru Lā 'Ilāha 'Illā 'Anta.
 		 (58) اللَّهمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي مَا قَدَّمْتُ وَمَا أَخَّرْتُ، وَمَا أَسْرَرْتُ وَمَا أَعْلَنْتُ، وَمَا أَسْرَفْتُ، وَمَا أَنْتَ أَعْلَمُ بِه ِِ مِنِّي. أَنْتَ المُقَدِّمُ، وَأَنْتَ المُؤَخِّرُ لا إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ.

(59)  

 ‘O Allah, help me to remember You, to thank You, and to worship You in the best of manners.’

 

 (59) Al-Lahumma 'A`innī `Alá Dhikrika, Wa Shukrika Wa Ĥusni `Ibādatika.
(59) اللَّهمَّ أَعِنِّي عَلَى ذِكْرِكَ وَشُكْرِكَ، وَحُسْنِ عِبَادَتِكَ.
 

(60)

 ‘O Allah, I take refuge in You from miserliness and cowardice, I take refuge in You lest I be returned to the worst of lives “i.e. old age, being weak, incapable and in a state of fear”, and I take refuge in You from the trials and tribulations of this life and the punishment of the grave.’

 (60) Al-Lahumma 'Innī 'A`ūdhu Bika Mina Al-Bukhli, Wa 'A`ūdhu Bika Mina Al-Jubni, Wa 'A`ūdhu Bika Min 'An 'Uradda 'Ilá 'Ardhali Al-`Umuri, Wa 'A`ūdhu Bika Min Fitnati Ad-Dunyā Wa `Adhābi Al-Qabri.
(60) اللَّهمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنَ البُخْلِ، وَأَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنَ الجُبْنِ، وَأَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنْ أَنْ أُرَدَّ إِلَى أَرْذَلِ العُمُرِ، وَأَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الدُّنْيَا وَعَذَابِ القَبْرِ.
 

(61)  

 ‘O Allah, I ask You to grant me Paradise and I take refuge in You from the Fire.’

 (61) Al-Lahumma 'Innī 'As'aluka Al-Jannata Wa 'A`ūdhu Bika Mina An-Nāri.
(61) اللَّهمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ الجَنَّةَ وَأَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنَ النَّارِ.
 

(62)  

 ‘O Allah, by Your knowledge of the unseen and Your power over creation, keep me alive so long as You know such life to be good for me and take me if You know death to be better for me.  O Allah, make me fearful of You whether in secret or in public and I ask You to make me true in speech, in times of pleasure and anger.I ask you to make me moderate in times of wealth and poverty and I ask You for everlasting bliss and joy which will never cease.I ask You to make me pleased with what You have decreed and for an easy life after death.I ask You for the sweetness of looking upon Your Face and a longing to encounter You in a manner which does not entail a calamity which will bring about harm nor a trial which will cause deviation. O Allah, beautify us with the adornment of faith and make us of those who guide and are rightly guided.’

 (62) Al-Lahumma Bi`ilmika Al-Ghaybi Wa Qudratika `Alá Al-Khalqi 'Aĥyinī Mā `Alimta Al-Ĥayāata Khayrāan Lī, Wa Tawaffanī 'Idhā `Alimta Al-Wafāata Khayrāan Lī, Al-Lahumma 'Innī 'As'aluka Khashyataka Fī Al-Ghaybi Wa Ash-Shahādati, Wa 'As'aluka Kalimata Al-Ĥaqqi Fī Ar-Riđā Wa Al-Ghađabi, Wa 'As'aluka Al-Qaşda Fī Al-Ghiná Wa Al-Faqri, Wa 'As'aluka Na`īmāan Lā Yanfadu, Wa 'As'aluka Qurrata `Aynin Lā Tanqaţi`u, Wa 'As'aluka Ar-Riđā Ba`da Al-Qađā'i, Wa 'As'aluka Barda Al-`Ayshi Ba`da Al-Mawti, Wa 'As'aluka Ladhdhata An-Nažari 'Ilá Wajhika, Wa Ash-Shawqa 'Ilá Liqā'ika, Fī Ghayri Đarrā'a Muđirratin, Wa Lā Fitnatin Muđillatin, Al-Lahumma Zayyinnā Bizīnati Al-'Īmāni, Wa Aj`alnā Hudāatan Muhtadīna.
(62) اللَّهمَّ بِعِلْمِكَ الغَيْبِ وَقُدْرَتِكَ عَلَى الخَلْقِ أَحْيِنِي مَا عَلِمْتَ الحَيَاةَ خَيْرا ً لِي، وَتَوَفَّنِي إِذَا عَلِمْتَ الوَفَاةَ خَيْرا ً لِي، اللَّهمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ خَشْيَتَكَ فِي الغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ كَلِمَةَ الحَقِّ فِي الرِّضَا وَالغَضَبِ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ القَصْدَ فِي الغِنَى وَالفَقْرِ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ نَعِيْما ً لا يَنْفَدُ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ قُرَّةَ عَيْن ٍ لا تَنْقَطِعُ وَأَسْأَلُكَ الرِّضَا بَعْدَ القَضَاءِ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ بَرْدَ العَيْشِ بَعْدَ المَوْتِ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ لَذَّةَ النَّظَرِ إِلَى وَجْهِكَ وَالشَّوْقَ إِلَى لِقَائِكَ، فِي غَيْرِ ضَرَّاءَ مُضِرَّة، ٍ وَلا فِتْنَة ٍ مُضِلَّة، ٍ اللَّهمَّ زَيِّنَّا بِزِيْنَةِ الإِيْمَانِ، وَاجْعَلْنَا هُدَاة ً مُهْتَدِيْنَ.
 

(63)  

 ‘O Allah, I ask You O Allah, as You are The One, The Only, AS-Samad, The One who begets not, nor was He begotten and there is none like unto Him that You forgive me my sins for verily You are The Oft-Forgiving, Most-Merciful.’

AS-Samad: The Self-Sufficient Master, Possessor of perfect attributes whom all of creation turn to in all their needs.

(63) Al-Lahumma 'Innī 'As'aluka Yā Allāhu Bi'annaka Al-Wāĥidu, Al-'Aĥadu Aş-Şamadu Al-Ladhy Lam Yalid Wa Lam Yūlad, Wa Lam Yakun Lahu Kufūan 'Aĥadun, 'An Taghfira Lī Dhunūbī 'Innaka 'Anta Al-Ghafūru Ar-Raĥīmu.
(63) اللَّهمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ يَا اللَّه بِأَنَّكَ الوَاحِدُ الأَحَدُ، الصَّمَدُ الَّذي لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُوْلَدْ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَه ُُ كُفُواً أَحَد،ٌ أَنْ تَغْفِرَ لِي ذُنُوْبِي إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الغَفُوْرُ الرَّحِيْمُ.
 

(64)  

 ‘O Allah, I ask You as unto You is all praise, none has the right to be worshipped except You, alone, without partner. You are the Benefactor. O Originator of the heavens and the Earth, O Possessor of majesty and honour, O Ever Living, O Self-Subsisting and Supporter of all, verily I ask You for Paradise and I take refuge with You from the Fire.’

 (64) Al-Lahumma 'Innī 'As'aluka Bi'anna Laka Al-Ĥamdu Lā 'Ilāha 'Illā 'Anta Wa Ĥdaka Lā Sharīka Laka Al-Mannānu Yā Badī`a As-Samawāti Wa Al-'Arđi Yā Dhā Al-Jalāli Wa Al-'Ikrāmi, Yā Ĥayyu Yā Qayyūmu 'Innī 'As'aluka Al-Jannata Wa 'A`ūdhu Bika Mina An-Nāri.
(64) اللَّهمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَنَّ لَكَ الحَمْدُ لا إِلَهََ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ وَحْدَكَ لا شَرِيْكَ لَكَ المَنَّانُ يَا بَدِيْعَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ يَا ذَا الجَلالِ وَالإِكْرَامِ، يَا حَيُّ يَا قَيُّوْمُ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ الجَنَّةَ وَأَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنَ النَّارِ.

(65)

 ‘O Allah, I ask You, as I bear witness that You are Allah, none has the right to be worshipped except You, The One, AS-Samad Who begets not nor was He begotten and there is none like unto Him.’

AS-Samad: The Self-Sufficient Master, Possessor of perfect attributes whom all of creation turn to in all their needs.

 (65) Al-Lahumma 'Innī 'As'aluka Bi'annay 'Ash/hadu 'Annaka 'Anta Allāhu Lā 'Ilāha 'Illā 'Anta, Al-'Aĥadu Aş-Şamadu Al-Ladhī Lam Yalid, Wa Lam Ywlad Wa Lam Yakun Lahu Kufūan 'Aĥad.un
(65) اللَّهمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَنَّي أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ اللَّهُ لا إِلَهََ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ، الأَحَدُ الصَّمَدُ الَّذِي لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يولَدْ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَه ُُ كُفُواً أَحَد.ٌ
