In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

اِلٰہِیْ کَمْ مِنْ مُوْبِقَۃٍ حَلُمْتَ عَنْ مُقَابِلَتِہَا بِنِقْمَتِکَ، وَکَمْ مِنْ جَرِیْرَۃٍ تَکَرَّمْتَ عَنْ کَشْفِہَا بِکَرَمِکَ، اِلٰہِیْ اِنْ طَالَ فِیْ عِصْیَانِکَ عُمْرِیْ، وَ عَظُمَ فیِ الصُّحُفِ ذَنْبِیْ، فَمَا اَنَا مُؤَمِّلٌ غَیْرَ غُفْرَانِکَ، وَ لَا اَنَا بِرَاجٍ غَیْرَ رِضْوَانِکَ. اِلٰہِیْ اُفَکِّرُ فِیْ عَفْوِکَ فَتَہُوْنُ عَلَیَّ خَطِیْئَتِیْ ثُمَّ اَذْکُرُ الْعَظِیْمَ مِنْ اَخْذِکَ فَتَعْظُمُ عَلَیَّ بَلِیَّتِیْ. اٰہٍ اِنْ اَنَا قَرَاْتُ فِیْ الصُّحُفِ سَیِّئَۃً اَنَا نَاسِیْہَا وَ اَنْتَ مُحْصِیْہَا فَتَقُوْلُ: خُذُوْہُ، فَیَا لَہٗ مِنْ مَاْخُوْذٍ لَا تُنْجِیْہِ عَشِیْرَتُہٗ، وَ لَا تَنْفَعُہٗ قَبِيْلَتُہٗ یَرْحَمُہُ الْمَلَأُ اِذَا اُذِنَ فِیْہِ بِالنِّدَاءِ. اٰہٍ مِنْ نَارٍ تُنْضِجُ الْاَکْبَادَ وَ الْکُلٰی، اٰہٍ مِنْ نَارٍ نَزَّاعَۃٍ لِلشَّوٰی، اٰہٍ مِنْ غَمْرَۃٍ مِنْ لَہَبَاتٍ لَظٰی.

O Allah! How many of my deeds invited Your wrath but due to tolerance You have averted it. And how many crimes were there which You have concealed and kept away. Even if my whole life is spent in Your disobedience and evil deeds have increased in my accounts but I don’t have any expectations from anyone except You. O Allah when I think of Your Mercy, my sins appear to be little, and when I think of Your wrath, my sins appear to be huge. Oh! What would happen when I see those sins in my account which I have forgotten and You will order “Seize him” Oh! How unfortunate would be the one whom You have arrested, neither would his friends save him, nor his family members would be of any help. The whole group would pity when the orders of hell would be given. Oh! That fire which will cook the liver, peel off the skin. Oh! Those raging flames and their deep pits.

After Each 2 Rakat 

Supplication for his reappearance (may our souls be sacrificed for him) after every two (raka’at) units of the night recommended prayer

Source Mikyaal al-Makaarem, vol. 2, p. 14/26; Behaar al-Anwaar, vol.87, p. 250.
Sheikh Tusi (may Allah elevates his position) said: it is recommended to recite this supplication after every two Raka’at in the night recommended prayer:

أَللَّهُمَّ إِنّي أَسْأَلُكَ وَلَمْ يُسْأَلْ مِثْلُكَ ، أَنْتَ مَوْضِعُ مَسْأَلَةِ السَّائِلينَ وَمُنْتَهى رَغْبَةِ الرَّاغِبينَ ، أَدْعُوكَ وَلَمْ يُدْعَ مِثْلُكَ ، وَأَرْغَبُ إِلَيْكَ وَلَمْ يُرْغَبْ إِلى مِثْلِكَ ، أَنْتَ مُجيبُ دَعْوَةِ الْمُضْطَرّينَ وَأَرْحَمُ الرَّاحِمينَ .
أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَفْضَلِ الْمَسائِلِ وَأَنْجَحِها وَأَعْظَمِها ، يا اَللَّهُ يا رَحْمانُ يا رَحيمُ وَبِأَسْمائِكَ الْحُسْنى ، وَأَمْثالِكَ الْعُلْيا ، وَنِعَمِكَ الَّتي لاتُحْصى ، وَبِأَكْرَمِ أَسْمائِكَ عَلَيْكَ ، وَأَحَبِّها إِلَيْكَ ، وَأَقْرَبِها مِنْكَ وَسيلَةً ، وَأَشْرَفِها عِنْدَكَ مَنْزِلَةً ، وأَجْزَلِها لَدَيْكَ ثَواباً ، وَأَسْرَعِها فِي الْاُمُورِ إِجابَةً ، وَبِاسْمِكَ الْمَكْنُونِ الْأَكْبَرِ الْأَعَزِّ الْأَجَلِّ الْأَعْظَمِ الْأَكْرَمِ ، اَلَّذي تُحِبُّهُ وَتَهْواهُ ، وَتَرْضى بِهِ عَمَّنْ دَعاكَ ، فَاسْتَجَبْتَ لَهُ دُعاءَهُ ، وَحَقٌّ عَلَيْكَ أَنْ لاتَحْرِمَ سائِلَكَ وَلاتَرُدَّهُ .
وَبِكُلِّ اسْمٍ هُوَ لَكَ فِي التَّوْراةِ وَالْإِنْجيلِ وَالزَّبُورِ وَالْقُرْآنِ الْعَظيمِ ، وَبِكُلِّ اسْمٍ دَعاكَ بِهِ حَمَلَةُ عَرْشِكَ وَمَلائِكَتُكَ ، وَأَنْبِياؤُكَ وَرُسُلُكَ ، وَأَهْلُ طاعَتِكَ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ ، أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ، وَأَنْ تُعَجِّلَ فَرَجَ وَلِيِّكَ وَابْنِ وَلِيِّكَ ، وَتُعَجِّلَ خِزْيَ أَعْدائِهِ

(then tender your wishes and needs).[1]

O’ Allah! I requested from You what was not requested from Your type, You are in the position to answer the needier and extreme desire of those who desired, I call You, the call that was not made to Your type, I desired from You, the desire that was not made to Your type, You answer the call of the compelled ones and the most Merciful of the merciful.
I requested from You the best, the tremendous and most successful issue, O’ Allah, O’ the Beneficent, O’ the Merciful, and by the sake of Your beautiful Names and exaltedness of Yourself and Your uncountable favours and by the Most honoured names to You which You love most and most closer to You, whose rank is more exalted before You and more recompensed before You that hasten the acceptance of request, for the sake of Your great hidden name that is honoured, mighty and more splendid. The name You love which pleases You if You are call with it. Thus You answer the call; it is Your responsibility not to prohibit nor reject those that requested from You.
For the sake of Your name mentioned in Torah, Gospel, Zabur and in the Glorious Qur’an, and for the sake of Your name called by the Angels and the carrier of Your Throne, Your Apostles and the Messengers and those obedient servants among Your creatures, so send Your blessing on Muhammad and on the family of Muhammad and to hasten the relief of Your legacy the son of Your legacy and quicken the humiliation of his enemies.

It was said in Mikyaalil Makarim that the following addition was found in Jamaalu Ssaliheen:

وَتَجْعَلَنا مِنْ أَصْحابِهِ وَأَنْصارِهِ ، وَتَرْزُقَنا بِهِ رَجآءَنا ، وَتَسْتَجيبَ بِهِ دُعآءَنا

And make us among his companion and helper and grant us all our hopes through him and accept our prayers.[2]

O Allah! How many of my deeds invited Your wrath but due to tolerance You have averted it. And how many crimes were there which You have concealed and kept away. Even if my whole life is spent in Your disobedience and evil deeds have increased in my accounts but I don’t have any expectations from anyone except You. O Allah when I think of Your Mercy, my sins appear to be little, and when I think of Your wrath, my sins appear to be huge. Oh! What would happen when I see those sins in my account which I have forgotten and You will order “Seize him” Oh! How unfortunate would be the one whom You have arrested, neither would his friends save him, nor his family members would be of any help. The whole group would pity when the orders of hell would be given. Oh! That fire which will cook the liver, peel off the skin. Oh! Those raging flames and their deep pits.

After Each 2 Rakat 

Supplication for his reappearance (may our souls be sacrificed for him) after every two (raka’at) units of the night recommended prayer

Source Mikyaal al-Makaarem, vol. 2, p. 14/26; Behaar al-Anwaar, vol.87, p. 250.
Sheikh Tusi (may Allah elevates his position) said: it is recommended to recite this supplication after every two Raka’at in the night recommended prayer:

أَللَّهُمَّ إِنّي أَسْأَلُكَ وَلَمْ يُسْأَلْ مِثْلُكَ ، أَنْتَ مَوْضِعُ مَسْأَلَةِ السَّائِلينَ وَمُنْتَهى رَغْبَةِ الرَّاغِبينَ ، أَدْعُوكَ وَلَمْ يُدْعَ مِثْلُكَ ، وَأَرْغَبُ إِلَيْكَ وَلَمْ يُرْغَبْ إِلى مِثْلِكَ ، أَنْتَ مُجيبُ دَعْوَةِ الْمُضْطَرّينَ وَأَرْحَمُ الرَّاحِمينَ .
أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَفْضَلِ الْمَسائِلِ وَأَنْجَحِها وَأَعْظَمِها ، يا اَللَّهُ يا رَحْمانُ يا رَحيمُ وَبِأَسْمائِكَ الْحُسْنى ، وَأَمْثالِكَ الْعُلْيا ، وَنِعَمِكَ الَّتي لاتُحْصى ، وَبِأَكْرَمِ أَسْمائِكَ عَلَيْكَ ، وَأَحَبِّها إِلَيْكَ ، وَأَقْرَبِها مِنْكَ وَسيلَةً ، وَأَشْرَفِها عِنْدَكَ مَنْزِلَةً ، وأَجْزَلِها لَدَيْكَ ثَواباً ، وَأَسْرَعِها فِي الْاُمُورِ إِجابَةً ، وَبِاسْمِكَ الْمَكْنُونِ الْأَكْبَرِ الْأَعَزِّ الْأَجَلِّ الْأَعْظَمِ الْأَكْرَمِ ، اَلَّذي تُحِبُّهُ وَتَهْواهُ ، وَتَرْضى بِهِ عَمَّنْ دَعاكَ ، فَاسْتَجَبْتَ لَهُ دُعاءَهُ ، وَحَقٌّ عَلَيْكَ أَنْ لاتَحْرِمَ سائِلَكَ وَلاتَرُدَّهُ .
وَبِكُلِّ اسْمٍ هُوَ لَكَ فِي التَّوْراةِ وَالْإِنْجيلِ وَالزَّبُورِ وَالْقُرْآنِ الْعَظيمِ ، وَبِكُلِّ اسْمٍ دَعاكَ بِهِ حَمَلَةُ عَرْشِكَ وَمَلائِكَتُكَ ، وَأَنْبِياؤُكَ وَرُسُلُكَ ، وَأَهْلُ طاعَتِكَ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ ، أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ، وَأَنْ تُعَجِّلَ فَرَجَ وَلِيِّكَ وَابْنِ وَلِيِّكَ ، وَتُعَجِّلَ خِزْيَ أَعْدائِهِ

(then tender your wishes and needs).[1]

O’ Allah! I requested from You what was not requested from Your type, You are in the position to answer the needier and extreme desire of those who desired, I call You, the call that was not made to Your type, I desired from You, the desire that was not made to Your type, You answer the call of the compelled ones and the most Merciful of the merciful.
I requested from You the best, the tremendous and most successful issue, O’ Allah, O’ the Beneficent, O’ the Merciful, and by the sake of Your beautiful Names and exaltedness of Yourself and Your uncountable favours and by the Most honoured names to You which You love most and most closer to You, whose rank is more exalted before You and more recompensed before You that hasten the acceptance of request, for the sake of Your great hidden name that is honoured, mighty and more splendid. The name You love which pleases You if You are call with it. Thus You answer the call; it is Your responsibility not to prohibit nor reject those that requested from You.
For the sake of Your name mentioned in Torah, Gospel, Zabur and in the Glorious Qur’an, and for the sake of Your name called by the Angels and the carrier of Your Throne, Your Apostles and the Messengers and those obedient servants among Your creatures, so send Your blessing on Muhammad and on the family of Muhammad and to hasten the relief of Your legacy the son of Your legacy and quicken the humiliation of his enemies.

It was said in Mikyaalil Makarim that the following addition was found in Jamaalu Ssaliheen:

وَتَجْعَلَنا مِنْ أَصْحابِهِ وَأَنْصارِهِ ، وَتَرْزُقَنا بِهِ رَجآءَنا ، وَتَسْتَجيبَ بِهِ دُعآءَنا

And make us among his companion and helper and grant us all our hopes through him and accept our prayers.[2]

يا رَبَّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ، صَلِّ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ، وَعَجِّلْ فَرَجَ مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ .

“O’ Lord of Mohammad and his Holy Progeny, send mercy upon Mohammad and his Holy Progeny, and show haste in the relief of Mohammad and his Holy Progeny.”

Majlisi (may Allah have mercy on him) in “Al-maqbaas” reported under the topic “The supplication after dawn prayer” that one should recite the following before he talks to any one:

يا رَبِّ صَلِّ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ، وَعَجِّلْ فَرَجَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ، وَأَعْتِقْ رَقَبَتي مِنَ النَّارِ.

O’ my Lord! Send blessing to Muhammad and the family of Muhammad and quicken the relief of Muhammad’s family and let me free from Hell fire.

 


Ch6 – 5 -Imam Reza (a.s.) advised to recite forty one (41) times,

یَا عَزِیْزُ.

YAA A’ZEEZO.
O Mighty.

He said “whoever recites with complete humbleness and humility, paying full attention, in the presence of Almighty Allah, will never be indigent of any creature and will get honor and popularity among the people.”

3 Duas

Three Supplications(i,ii,iii below) taught by Sayyid Muhammad al-Sultanabadi to Shaykh Muhammad Sadiq al-`Iraqi (through Imam Mahdi – peace be upon him) that alleviated his extreme grief and poverty

 

 

(i) He taught him that he, after the Dawn Prayers, should put his hand on his chest and repeat seventy times the phrase of:

يَا فَتَّاحُ

Ya fattahu
O Opener

(ii) He taught him to regularly say the following supplicatory prayer that, as is recorded in al-Kafi, the Holy Prophet (s) taught to one of his companions who had been afflicted by disease and poverty. Soon after that, the man recovered health and got rid of poverty. The supplication is this:

لاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاََّ بِٱللَّهِ

la hawla wa la quwwata illa billahi
There is neither might nor power except with Allah.

تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَىٰ ٱلْحَيِّ ٱلَّذِي لاَ يَمُوتُ

tawakkaltu `ala alhayyi alladhi la yamutu
I put my trust in the Ever-living (Lord) Who never dies.

وَٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِي لَمْ يَتَّخِذْ وَلَداً

walhamdu lillahi alladhi lam yattakhidh waladan
All praise is due to Allah, Who has not taken a wife or a son

وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ شَرِيكٌ فِي ٱلْمُلْكِ

wa lam yakun lahu sharikun fi almulki
and Who has not have a partner in the kingdom,

وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ وَلِيٌّ مِنَ ٱلذُّلِّ

wa lam yakun lahu waliyyun min aldhdhulli
and Who has not have a helper to save Him from disgrace;

وَكَبِّرْهُ تَكْبِيراً

wa kabbirhu takbiran
and magnify Him with all magnificence.

(iii) He taught him to say the dua below. In `Uddat al-Da`i, Shaykh Ibn Fahad reports Imam `Ali ibn Musa al-Rida (peace be upon him) to have said: Whoever says the following dua after the Dawn Prayer, will have all his requests made easy-to-gain for him and will be saved by Almighty Allah against every thing that aggrieves him

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ

bismillahi
In the Name of Allah.

وَصَلَّىٰ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ مُحَمَّد وآلِهِ

wa salla allahu `ala muhammadin wa alihi
May Allah bless Muhammad and his Household.

وَأُفَوِّضُ أَمْرِي إِلَىٰ ٱللَّهِ

wa ufawwidu amri ila allahi
“I confide my cause unto Allah.

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ بَصيرٌ بِٱلْعِبَادِ

inna allaha basirun bil`ibadi
Surely, Allah is Seer of His slaves.

فَوَقَاهُ ٱللَّهُ سَيِّئَاتِ مَا مَكَرُوا

fawaqahu allahu sayyi’ati ma makaru
So, Allah warded off from him the evils which they plotted.”

لاَ إِلٰهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ سُبْحَانَكَ

la ilaha illa anta subhanaka
“There is no god save You. Be You Glorified!

إِنِّي كُنْتُ مِنَ ٱلظَّالِمِيـنَ

inni kuntu mina alzzalimina
Lo! I have been a wrongdoer.

فَٱسْتَجَبْنَا لَهُ وَنَجَّيْنَاهُ مِنَ ٱلغَمِّ

fastajabna lahu wa najjaynahu mina alghammi
Then, We heard his prayer and saved him from the anguish.

وَكَذٰلِكَ نُنْجِي ٱلْمُؤْمِنينَ

wa kadhalika nunji almu’minina
Thus do We save the believers.”

حَسْبُنَا ٱللَّهُ وَنِعْمَ ٱلْوَكِيلُ

hasbuna allahu wa ni`ma alwakilu
“Allah is Sufficient for us! Most Excellent is He in Whom we trust.

فَٱنَقَلَبُوٱ بِنِعْمَةٍ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ وَفَضْلٍ

fanqalabu bini`matin mina allahi wa fadlin
So, they returned with grace and favor from Allah,

لَمْ يَمْسَسْهُمْ سُوءٌ

lam yamsas-hum su’un
and no harm touched them.”

مَا شَاءَ ٱللَّهُ

ma sha’a allahu
Only that which Allah wills shall come to pass.

لاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاَّ بِٱللَّهِ

la hawla wa la quwwata illa billahi
There is neither strength nor power save with Allah.

مَا شَاءَ ٱللَّهُ لاَ مَا شَاءَ ٱلنَّاسُ

ma sha’a allahu la ma sha’a alnnasu
Only that which Allah, but not people, wills shall come to pass.

مَا شَاءَ ٱللَّهُ وَإِنْ كَرِهَ ٱلنَّاسُ

ma sha’a allahu wa in kariha alnnasu
Only that which Allah wills shall come to pass even if people detest it.

حَسْبِيَ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنَ ٱلْمَرْبُوبِيـنَ

hasbiya alrrabbu mina almarbubina
Sufficient for me is the Lord against the lorded.

حَسْبِيَ ٱلْخَالِقُ مِنَ ٱلْمَخْلُوقِيـنَ

hasbiya alkhaliqu mina almakhluqina
Sufficient for me is the Creator against the creatures.

حَسْبِيَ ٱلرَّازِقُ مِنَ ٱلْمَرْزُوقِيـنَ

Sufficient for me is He Who had been since eternity and still sufficient for me.

حَسْبِيَ ٱللَّهُ لاَ إِلٰهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ

hasbiya allahu la ilaha illa huwa
“Allah suffices me. There is no god save Him.

عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ

`alayhi tawakkaltu
In Him have I put my trust,

وَهُوَ رَبُّ ٱلْعَرْشِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ

wa huwa rabbu al`arshi al`azimi
and He is the Lord of the Tremendous Throne.”
The Holy Prophet (saws) Has Started
Qutub Rawandi reported from Imam Ali (as) that the Holy Prophet (saws) has stated, that he was afraid for him who does not remember the 4 blessings at dawn & as a result , may be snatched away from him

 


 

اَلْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِيْ‏ عَرَّفَنِيْ‏ نَفْسَهٗ‏ وَ لَمْ يَتْرُكْنِيْ عَمْيَانَ الْقَلْبِ

alh’amdu lillaahil lad’ee a’rrafnee nafsahoo wa lam yatruknee u’myaanal qalbi
All Praise to Allah who made Himself known to me & did not make me blind hearted

اَلْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِيْ جَعَلَنِيْ مِنْ اُمَّةِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّی اللہُ عَلَیْہِ وَ اٰلِہ

alh’amdu lillaahil lad’ee ja-a’lanee min ummati muh’ammadin s’allallaahu a’layji wa aalihee wa sallam
All Praise to Allah who included me among the followers of Muhammad (saws)

اَلْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِيْ جَعَلَ رِزْقِيْ فِيْ يَدَيْهِ وَ لَمْ يَجْعَلْ رِزْقِيْ فِي اَيْدِيْ النَّاسِ

alh’amdu lillaahil lad’ee ja-a’la rizqee fee yadihee wa lam yaj-a’lhu fee aydin naasi
All Praise to Allah who has ordained my sustenance to be in HIS own hands & not in the hands of human beings

اَلْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِيْ سَتَرَ ذُنُوْبِيْ وَ عُيُوْبِيْ وَ لَمْ يَفْضَحْنِيْ بَيْنَ الْخَلَایِقِ.

alh’amdu lillaahil lad’ee satara u’yoobee wa lam yafz’ah’nee baynan naasi
All Praise to Allah who has covered my sins & shortcomings & did not degrade me in the eyes of Human beings
Alternate translation

Praise to be Allah who gave me (wisdom) to follow and obey Muhammad, blessings of Allah be on him and on his children, and also peace.
Praise be to Allah who has kept my sustenance in His (own) hand and did not give it to other people (like me) from whom I may have to seek it.

In the name of God, the most gracious, the most merciful

يسٓ

Yaa-Seeen

 Ya Sin.

وَٱلۡقُرۡءَانِ ٱلۡحَكِيمِ

Wal-Qur-aanil-Hakeem

By the Qur’an, full of Wisdom,

إِنَّكَ لَمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ

Innaka laminal mursaleen

Thou art indeed one of the messengers,

عَلَىٰ صِرَٰطٖ مُّسۡتَقِيمٖ

‘Alaa Siraatim Mustaqeem

On a Straight Way.

تَنزِيلَ ٱلۡعَزِيزِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

Tanzeelal ‘Azeezir Raheem

It is a Revelation sent down by (Him), the Exalted in Might, Most Merciful.

لِتُنذِرَ قَوۡمٗا مَّآ أُنذِرَ ءَابَآؤُهُمۡ فَهُمۡ غَٰفِلُونَ

Litunzira qawmam maaa unzira aabaaa’uhum fahum ghaafiloon

In order that thou mayest admonish a people, whose fathers had received no admonition, and who therefore remain heedless (of the Signs of God).

لَقَدۡ حَقَّ ٱلۡقَوۡلُ عَلَىٰٓ أَكۡثَرِهِمۡ فَهُمۡ لَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ

Laqad haqqal qawlu ‘alaaa aksarihim fahum laa yu’minoon

The Word is proved true against the greater part of them: for they do not believe.

إِنَّا جَعَلۡنَا فِيٓ أَعۡنَٰقِهِمۡ أَغۡلَٰلٗا فَهِيَ إِلَى ٱلۡأَذۡقَانِ فَهُم مُّقۡمَحُونَ

Innaa ja’alnaa feee a’naaqihim aghlaalan fahiya ilal azqaani fahum muqmahoon

We have put yokes round their necks right up to their chins, so that their heads are forced up (and they cannot see).

وَجَعَلۡنَا مِنۢ بَيۡنِ أَيۡدِيهِمۡ سَدّٗا وَمِنۡ خَلۡفِهِمۡ سَدّٗا فَأَغۡشَيۡنَٰهُمۡ فَهُمۡ لَا يُبۡصِرُونَ

Wa ja’alnaa mim baini aydeehim saddanw-wa min khalfihim saddan fa aghshai naahum fahum laa yubsiroon

And We have put a bar in front of them and a bar behind them, and further, We have covered them up; so that they cannot see.

وَسَوَآءٌ عَلَيۡهِمۡ ءَأَنذَرۡتَهُمۡ أَمۡ لَمۡ تُنذِرۡهُمۡ لَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ

Wa sawaaa’un ‘alaihim ‘a-anzartahum am lam tunzirhum laa yu’minoon

The same is it to them whether thou admonish them or thou do not admonish them: they will not believe.

إِنَّمَا تُنذِرُ مَنِ ٱتَّبَعَ ٱلذِّكۡرَ وَخَشِيَ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنَ بِٱلۡغَيۡبِۖ فَبَشِّرۡهُ بِمَغۡفِرَةٖ وَأَجۡرٖ كَرِيمٍ

Innamaa tunziru manit taba ‘az-Zikra wa khashiyar Rahmaana bilghaib, fabashshirhu bimaghfiratinw-wa ajrin kareem

Thou canst but admonish such a one as follows the Message and fears the (Lord) Most Gracious, unseen: give such a one, therefore, good tidings, of Forgiveness and a Reward most generous.

إِنَّا نَحۡنُ نُحۡيِ ٱلۡمَوۡتَىٰ وَنَكۡتُبُ مَا قَدَّمُواْ وَءَاثَٰرَهُمۡۚ وَكُلَّ شَيۡءٍ أَحۡصَيۡنَٰهُ فِيٓ إِمَامٖ مُّبِينٖ

Innaa Nahnu nuhyil mawtaa wa naktubu maa qaddamoo wa aasaarahum; wa kulla shai’in ahsainaahu feee Imaamim Mubeen

Verily We shall give life to the dead, and We record that which they send before and that which they leave behind, and of all things have We taken account in a clear Book (of evidence).

وَٱضۡرِبۡ لَهُم مَّثَلًا أَصۡحَٰبَ ٱلۡقَرۡيَةِ إِذۡ جَآءَهَا ٱلۡمُرۡسَلُونَ

Wadrib lahum masalan Ashaabal Qaryatih; iz jaaa’ahal mursaloon

 Set forth to them, by way of a parable, the (story of) the Companions of the City. Behold!, there came apostles to it.

إِذۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَآ إِلَيۡهِمُ ٱثۡنَيۡنِ فَكَذَّبُوهُمَا فَعَزَّزۡنَا بِثَالِثٖ فَقَالُوٓاْ إِنَّآ إِلَيۡكُم مُّرۡسَلُونَ

Iz arsalnaaa ilaihimusnaini fakazzaboohumaa fa’azzaznaa bisaalisin faqaalooo innaaa ilaikum mursaloon

When We (first) sent to them two apostles, they rejected them: But We strengthened them with a third: they said, “Truly, we have been sent on a mission to you.”

قَالُواْ مَآ أَنتُمۡ إِلَّا بَشَرٞ مِّثۡلُنَا وَمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ مِن شَيۡءٍ إِنۡ أَنتُمۡ إِلَّا تَكۡذِبُونَ

Qaaloo maaa antum illaa basharum mislunaa wa maaa anzalar Rahmaanu min shai’in in antum illaa takziboon

The (people) said: “Ye are only men like ourselves; and (God) Most Gracious sends no sort of revelation: ye do nothing but lie.”

قَالُواْ رَبُّنَا يَعۡلَمُ إِنَّآ إِلَيۡكُمۡ لَمُرۡسَلُونَ

Qaaloo Rabbunaa ya’lamu innaaa ilaikum lamursaloon

 They said: “Our Lord doth know that we have been sent on a mission to you:

وَمَا عَلَيۡنَآ إِلَّا ٱلۡبَلَٰغُ ٱلۡمُبِينُ

Wa maa ‘alainaaa illal balaaghul mubeen

“And our duty is only to proclaim the clear Message.”

قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّا تَطَيَّرۡنَا بِكُمۡۖ لَئِن لَّمۡ تَنتَهُواْ لَنَرۡجُمَنَّكُمۡ وَلَيَمَسَّنَّكُم مِّنَّا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٞ

Qaaloo innaa tataiyarnaa bikum la’il-lam tantahoo lanar jumannakum wa la-yamassan nakum minnaa ‘azaabun aleem

The (people) said: “for us, we augur an evil omen from you: if ye desist not, we will certainly stone you. And a grievous punishment indeed will be inflicted on you by us.”

قَالُواْ طَـٰٓئِرُكُم مَّعَكُمۡ أَئِن ذُكِّرۡتُمۚ بَلۡ أَنتُمۡ قَوۡمٞ مُّسۡرِفُونَ

Qaaloo taaa’irukum ma’akum; a’in zukkirtum; bal antum qawmum musrifoon

They said: “Your evil omens are with yourselves: (deem ye this an evil omen). If ye are admonished? Nay, but ye are a people transgressing all bounds!”

وَجَآءَ مِنۡ أَقۡصَا ٱلۡمَدِينَةِ رَجُلٞ يَسۡعَىٰ قَالَ يَٰقَوۡمِ ٱتَّبِعُواْ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ

Wa jaaa’a min aqsal madeenati rajuluny yas’aa qaala yaa qawmit tabi’ul mursaleen

Then there came running, from the farthest part of the City, a man, saying, “O my people! Obey the apostles:

ٱتَّبِعُواْ مَن لَّا يَسۡـَٔلُكُمۡ أَجۡرٗا وَهُم مُّهۡتَدُونَ

Ittabi’oo mal-laa yas’alukum ajranw-wa hum muhtadoon

 “Obey those who ask no reward of you (for themselves), and who have themselves received Guidance.

وَمَا لِيَ لَآ أَعۡبُدُ ٱلَّذِي فَطَرَنِي وَإِلَيۡهِ تُرۡجَعُونَ

Wa maa liya laaa a’budul lazee fataranee wa ilaihi turja’oon

“It would not be reasonable in me if I did not serve Him Who created me, and to Whom ye shall (all) be brought back.

ءَأَتَّخِذُ مِن دُونِهِۦٓ ءَالِهَةً إِن يُرِدۡنِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ بِضُرّٖ لَّا تُغۡنِ عَنِّي شَفَٰعَتُهُمۡ شَيۡـٔٗا وَلَا يُنقِذُونِ

‘A-attakhizu min dooniheee aalihatan iny-yuridnir Rahmaanu bidurril-laa tughni ‘annee shafaa ‘atuhum shai ‘anw-wa laa yunqizoon

“Shall I take (other) gods besides Him? If (God) Most Gracious should intend some adversity for me, of no use whatever will be their intercession for me, nor can they deliver me.

إِنِّيٓ إِذٗا لَّفِي ضَلَٰلٖ مُّبِينٍ

Inneee izal-lafee dalaa-lim-mubeen

“I would indeed, if I were to do so, be in manifest Error.

إِنِّيٓ ءَامَنتُ بِرَبِّكُمۡ فَٱسۡمَعُونِ

Inneee aamantu bi Rabbikum fasma’oon

 “For me, I have faith in the Lord of you (all): listen, then, to me!”

قِيلَ ٱدۡخُلِ ٱلۡجَنَّةَۖ قَالَ يَٰلَيۡتَ قَوۡمِي يَعۡلَمُونَ

Qeelad khulil Jannnah; qaala yaa laita qawmee ya’lamoon

 It was said: “Enter thou the Garden.” He said: “Ah me! Would that my People knew (what I know)!

بِمَا غَفَرَ لِي رَبِّي وَجَعَلَنِي مِنَ ٱلۡمُكۡرَمِينَ

Bimaa ghafara lee Rabbee wa ja’alanee minal mukrameen (End Juz 22)

 “For that my Lord has granted me Forgiveness and has enrolled me among those held in honour!”

وَمَآ أَنزَلۡنَا عَلَىٰ قَوۡمِهِۦ مِنۢ بَعۡدِهِۦ مِن جُندٖ مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَمَا كُنَّا مُنزِلِينَ

Wa maaa anzalnaa ‘alaa qawmihee mim ba’dihee min jundim minas-samaaa’i wa maa kunnaa munzileen

 And We sent not down against his People, after him, any hosts from heaven, nor was it needful for Us so to do.

إِن كَانَتۡ إِلَّا صَيۡحَةٗ وَٰحِدَةٗ فَإِذَا هُمۡ خَٰمِدُونَ

In kaanat illaa saihatanw waahidatan fa-izaa hum khaamidoon

It was no more than a single mighty Blast, and behold! they were (like ashes) quenched and silent.

يَٰحَسۡرَةً عَلَى ٱلۡعِبَادِۚ مَا يَأۡتِيهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا كَانُواْ بِهِۦ يَسۡتَهۡزِءُونَ

Yaa hasratan ‘alal ‘ibaaad; maa ya’teehim mir Rasoolin illaa kaanoo bihee yastahzi ‘oon

 Ah! Alas for (My) Servants! There comes not an apostle to them but they mock him!

أَلَمۡ يَرَوۡاْ كَمۡ أَهۡلَكۡنَا قَبۡلَهُم مِّنَ ٱلۡقُرُونِ أَنَّهُمۡ إِلَيۡهِمۡ لَا يَرۡجِعُونَ

Alam yaraw kam ahlak naa qablahum minal qurooni annahum ilaihim laa yarji’oon

See they not how many generations before them we destroyed? Not to them will they return:

وَإِن كُلّٞ لَّمَّا جَمِيعٞ لَّدَيۡنَا مُحۡضَرُونَ

Wa in kullul lammaa jamee’ul-ladainaa muhdaroon

 But each one of them all – will be brought before Us (for judgment).

وَءَايَةٞ لَّهُمُ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ ٱلۡمَيۡتَةُ أَحۡيَيۡنَٰهَا وَأَخۡرَجۡنَا مِنۡهَا حَبّٗا فَمِنۡهُ يَأۡكُلُونَ

Wa Aayatul lahumul ardul maitatu ahyainaahaa wa akhrajnaa minhaa habban faminhu ya’kuloon

A Sign for them is the earth that is dead: We do give it life, and produce grain therefrom, of which ye do eat.

وَجَعَلۡنَا فِيهَا جَنَّـٰتٖ مِّن نَّخِيلٖ وَأَعۡنَٰبٖ وَفَجَّرۡنَا فِيهَا مِنَ ٱلۡعُيُونِ

Wa ja’alnaa feehaa jannaatim min nakheelinw wa a’naabinw wa fajjarnaa feeha minal ‘uyoon

 And We produce therein orchard with date-palms and vines, and We cause springs to gush forth therein:

لِيَأۡكُلُواْ مِن ثَمَرِهِۦ وَمَا عَمِلَتۡهُ أَيۡدِيهِمۡۚ أَفَلَا يَشۡكُرُونَ

Li ya’kuloo min samarihee wa maa ‘amilat-hu aideehim; afalaa yashkuroon

That they may enjoy the fruits of this (artistry): It was not their hands that made this: will they not then give thanks?

سُبۡحَٰنَ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ ٱلۡأَزۡوَٰجَ كُلَّهَا مِمَّا تُنۢبِتُ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ وَمِنۡ أَنفُسِهِمۡ وَمِمَّا لَا يَعۡلَمُونَ

Subhaanal lazee khalaqal azwaaja kullahaa mimmaa tumbitul ardu wa min anfusihim wa mimmaa laa ya’lamoon

Glory to God, Who created in pairs all things that the earth produces, as well as their own (human) kind and (other) things of which they have no knowledge.

وَءَايَةٞ لَّهُمُ ٱلَّيۡلُ نَسۡلَخُ مِنۡهُ ٱلنَّهَارَ فَإِذَا هُم مُّظۡلِمُونَ

Wa Aayatul lahumul lailu naslakhu minhun nahaara fa-izaa hum muzlimoon

 And a Sign for them is the Night: We withdraw therefrom the Day, and behold they are plunged in darkness;

وَٱلشَّمۡسُ تَجۡرِي لِمُسۡتَقَرّٖ لَّهَاۚ ذَٰلِكَ تَقۡدِيرُ ٱلۡعَزِيزِ ٱلۡعَلِيمِ

Wash-shamsu tajree limustaqarril lahaa; zaalika taqdeerul ‘Azeezil Aleem

And the sun runs his course for a period determined for him: that is the decree of (Him), the Exalted in Might, the All-Knowing.

وَٱلۡقَمَرَ قَدَّرۡنَٰهُ مَنَازِلَ حَتَّىٰ عَادَ كَٱلۡعُرۡجُونِ ٱلۡقَدِيمِ

Walqamara qaddarnaahu manaazila hattaa ‘aada kal’ur joonil qadeem

And the Moon,- We have measured for her mansions (to traverse) till she returns like the old (and withered) lower part of a date-stalk.

لَا ٱلشَّمۡسُ يَنۢبَغِي لَهَآ أَن تُدۡرِكَ ٱلۡقَمَرَ وَلَا ٱلَّيۡلُ سَابِقُ ٱلنَّهَارِۚ وَكُلّٞ فِي فَلَكٖ يَسۡبَحُونَ

Lash shamsu yambaghee lahaaa an tudrikal qamara walal lailu saabiqun nahaar; wa kullun fee falaki yasbahoon

 It is not permitted to the Sun to catch up the Moon, nor can the Night outstrip the Day: Each (just) swims along in (its own) orbit (according to Law).

وَءَايَةٞ لَّهُمۡ أَنَّا حَمَلۡنَا ذُرِّيَّتَهُمۡ فِي ٱلۡفُلۡكِ ٱلۡمَشۡحُونِ

Wa Aayatul lahum annaa hamalnaa zurriyatahum fil fulkil mashhoon

And a Sign for them is that We bore their race (through the Flood) in the loaded Ark;

وَخَلَقۡنَا لَهُم مِّن مِّثۡلِهِۦ مَا يَرۡكَبُونَ

Wa khalaqnaa lahum mim-mislihee maa yarkaboon

And We have created for them similar (vessels) on which they ride

وَإِن نَّشَأۡ نُغۡرِقۡهُمۡ فَلَا صَرِيخَ لَهُمۡ وَلَا هُمۡ يُنقَذُونَ

Wa in nashaa nughriqhum falaa sareekha lahum wa laa hum yunqazoon

If it were Our Will, We could drown them: then would there be no helper (to hear their cry), nor could they be delivered,

إِلَّا رَحۡمَةٗ مِّنَّا وَمَتَٰعًا إِلَىٰ حِينٖ

Illaa rahmatam minnaa wa mataa’an ilaa heen

Except by way of Mercy from Us, and by way of (world) convenience (to serve them) for a time.

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱتَّقُواْ مَا بَيۡنَ أَيۡدِيكُمۡ وَمَا خَلۡفَكُمۡ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تُرۡحَمُونَ

Wa izaa qeela lahumuttaqoo maa baina aideekum wa maa khalfakum la’allakum turhamoon

When they are told, “Fear ye that which is before you and that which will be after you, in order that ye may receive Mercy,” (they turn back).

وَمَا تَأۡتِيهِم مِّنۡ ءَايَةٖ مِّنۡ ءَايَٰتِ رَبِّهِمۡ إِلَّا كَانُواْ عَنۡهَا مُعۡرِضِينَ

Wa maa ta’teehim min aayatim min Aayaati Rabbihim illaa kaanoo ‘anhaa mu’rideen

 Not a Sign comes to them from among the Signs of their Lord, but they turn away therefrom.

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمۡ أَنفِقُواْ مِمَّا رَزَقَكُمُ ٱللَّهُ قَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ لِلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ أَنُطۡعِمُ مَن لَّوۡ يَشَآءُ ٱللَّهُ أَطۡعَمَهُۥٓ إِنۡ أَنتُمۡ إِلَّا فِي ضَلَٰلٖ مُّبِينٖ

Wa izaa qeela lahum anfiqoo mimmaa razaqakumul laahu qaalal lazeena kafaroo lillazeena aamanooo anut’imu mal-law yashaaa’ul laahu at’amahooo in antum illaa fee dalaalim mubeen

 And when they are told, “Spend ye of (the bounties) with which God has provided you,” the Unbelievers say to those who believe: “Shall we then feed those whom, if God had so willed, He would have fed, (Himself)?- Ye are in nothing but manifest error.”

وَيَقُولُونَ مَتَىٰ هَٰذَا ٱلۡوَعۡدُ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَٰدِقِينَ

Wa yaqooloona mataa haazal wa’du in kuntum saadiqeen

Further, they say, “When will this promise (come to pass), if what ye say is true?”

مَا يَنظُرُونَ إِلَّا صَيۡحَةٗ وَٰحِدَةٗ تَأۡخُذُهُمۡ وَهُمۡ يَخِصِّمُونَ

Maa yanzuroona illaa saihatanw waahidatan ta’khuzuhum wa hum yakhissimoon

They will not (have to) wait for aught but a single Blast: it will seize them while they are yet disputing among themselves!

فَلَا يَسۡتَطِيعُونَ تَوۡصِيَةٗ وَلَآ إِلَىٰٓ أَهۡلِهِمۡ يَرۡجِعُونَ

Falaa yastatee’oona taw siyatanw-wa laaa ilaaa ahlihim yarji’oon

No (chance) will they then have, by will, to dispose (of their affairs), nor to return to their own people!

وَنُفِخَ فِي ٱلصُّورِ فَإِذَا هُم مِّنَ ٱلۡأَجۡدَاثِ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِمۡ يَنسِلُونَ

Wa nufikha fis-soori faizaa hum minal ajdaasi ilaa Rabbihim yansiloon

The trumpet shall be sounded, when behold! from the sepulchres (men) will rush forth to their Lord!

قَالُواْ يَٰوَيۡلَنَا مَنۢ بَعَثَنَا مِن مَّرۡقَدِنَاۜۗ هَٰذَا مَا وَعَدَ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ وَصَدَقَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلُونَ

Qaaloo yaa wailanaa mam ba’asanaa mim marqadinaa; haaza maa wa’adar Rahmanu wa sadaqal mursaloon

They will say: “Ah! Woe unto us! Who hath raised us up from our beds of repose?”… (A voice will say:) “This is what (God) Most Gracious had promised. And true was the word of the apostles!”

إِن كَانَتۡ إِلَّا صَيۡحَةٗ وَٰحِدَةٗ فَإِذَا هُمۡ جَمِيعٞ لَّدَيۡنَا مُحۡضَرُونَ

In kaanat illaa saihatanw waahidatan fa-izaa hum jamee’ul ladainaa muhdaroon

It will be no more than a single Blast, when lo! they will all be brought up before Us!

فَٱلۡيَوۡمَ لَا تُظۡلَمُ نَفۡسٞ شَيۡـٔٗا وَلَا تُجۡزَوۡنَ إِلَّا مَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَ

Fal-Yawma laa tuzlamu nafsun shai’anw-wa laa tujzawna illaa maa kuntum ta’maloon

 Then, on that Day, not a soul will be wronged in the least, and ye shall but be repaid the meeds of your past Deeds.

إِنَّ أَصۡحَٰبَ ٱلۡجَنَّةِ ٱلۡيَوۡمَ فِي شُغُلٖ فَٰكِهُونَ

Inna Ashaabal jannatil Yawma fee shughulin faakihoon

 Verily the Companions of the Garden shall that Day have joy in all that they do;

هُمۡ وَأَزۡوَٰجُهُمۡ فِي ظِلَٰلٍ عَلَى ٱلۡأَرَآئِكِ مُتَّكِـُٔونَ

Hum wa azwaajuhum fee zilaalin ‘alal araaa’iki muttaki’oon

They and their associates will be in groves of (cool) shade, reclining on Thrones (of dignity);

لَهُمۡ فِيهَا فَٰكِهَةٞ وَلَهُم مَّا يَدَّعُونَ

Lahum feehaa faakiha tunw-wa lahum maa yadda’oon

 (Every) fruit (enjoyment) will be there for them; they shall have whatever they call for;

سَلَٰمٞ قَوۡلٗا مِّن رَّبّٖ رَّحِيمٖ

Salaamun qawlam mir Rabbir Raheem

“Peace!” – a word (of salutation) from a Lord Most Merciful!

وَٱمۡتَٰزُواْ ٱلۡيَوۡمَ أَيُّهَا ٱلۡمُجۡرِمُونَ

Wamtaazul Yawma ayyuhal mujrimoon

 “And O ye in sin! Get ye apart this Day!

أَلَمۡ أَعۡهَدۡ إِلَيۡكُمۡ يَٰبَنِيٓ ءَادَمَ أَن لَّا تَعۡبُدُواْ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنَۖ إِنَّهُۥ لَكُمۡ عَدُوّٞ مُّبِينٞ

Alam a’had ilaikum yaa Baneee Aadama al-laa ta’budush Shaitaana innahoo lakum ‘aduwwum mubeen

 “Did I not enjoin on you, O ye Children of Adam, that ye should not worship Satan; for that he was to you an enemy avowed?-

وَأَنِ ٱعۡبُدُونِيۚ هَٰذَا صِرَٰطٞ مُّسۡتَقِيمٞ

Wa ani’budoonee; haazaa Siraatum Mustaqeem

 “Did I not enjoin on you, O ye Children of Adam, that ye should not worship Satan; for that he was to you an enemy avowed?-

وَلَقَدۡ أَضَلَّ مِنكُمۡ جِبِلّٗا كَثِيرًاۖ أَفَلَمۡ تَكُونُواْ تَعۡقِلُونَ

Wa laqad adalla minkum jibillan kaseeraa; afalam takoonoo ta’qiloon

 “Did I not enjoin on you, O ye Children of Adam, that ye should not worship Satan; for that he was to you an enemy avowed?-

هَٰذِهِۦ جَهَنَّمُ ٱلَّتِي كُنتُمۡ تُوعَدُونَ

Haazihee Jahannamul latee kuntum too’adoon

“This is the Hell of which ye were (repeatedly) warned!

ٱصۡلَوۡهَا ٱلۡيَوۡمَ بِمَا كُنتُمۡ تَكۡفُرُونَ

Islawhal Yawma bimaa kuntum takfuroon

“This is the Hell of which ye were (repeatedly) warned!

ٱلۡيَوۡمَ نَخۡتِمُ عَلَىٰٓ أَفۡوَٰهِهِمۡ وَتُكَلِّمُنَآ أَيۡدِيهِمۡ وَتَشۡهَدُ أَرۡجُلُهُم بِمَا كَانُواْ يَكۡسِبُونَ

Al-Yawma nakhtimu ‘alaaa afwaahihim wa tukallimunaaa aideehim wa tashhadu arjuluhum bimaa kaanoo yaksiboon

 That Day shall We set a seal on their mouths. But their hands will speak to us, and their feet bear witness, to all that they did.

وَلَوۡ نَشَآءُ لَطَمَسۡنَا عَلَىٰٓ أَعۡيُنِهِمۡ فَٱسۡتَبَقُواْ ٱلصِّرَٰطَ فَأَنَّىٰ يُبۡصِرُونَ

Wa law nashaaa’u lata masna ‘alaaa aiyunihim fasta baqus-siraata fa-annaa yubsiroon

If it had been our Will, We could surely have blotted out their eyes; then should they have run about groping for the Path, but how could they have seen?

وَلَوۡ نَشَآءُ لَمَسَخۡنَٰهُمۡ عَلَىٰ مَكَانَتِهِمۡ فَمَا ٱسۡتَطَٰعُواْ مُضِيّٗا وَلَا يَرۡجِعُونَ

Wa law nashaaa’u lamasakhnaahum ‘alaa makaanatihim famas-tataa’oo mudiyyanw-wa laa yarji’oon

And if it had been Our Will, We could have transformed them (to remain) in their places; then should they have been unable to move about, nor could they have returned (after error).

وَمَن نُّعَمِّرۡهُ نُنَكِّسۡهُ فِي ٱلۡخَلۡقِۚ أَفَلَا يَعۡقِلُونَ

Wa man nu ‘ammirhu nunakkishu fil-khalq; afalaa ya’qiloon

If We grant long life to any, We cause him to be reversed in nature: Will they not then understand?

وَمَا عَلَّمۡنَٰهُ ٱلشِّعۡرَ وَمَا يَنۢبَغِي لَهُۥٓۚ إِنۡ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكۡرٞ وَقُرۡءَانٞ مُّبِينٞ

Wa maa ‘allamnaahush shi’ra wa maa yambaghee lah; in huwa illaa zikrunw-wa Qur-aanum mubeen

 We have not instructed the (Prophet) in Poetry, nor is it meet for him: this is no less than a Message and a Qur’an making things clear:

لِّيُنذِرَ مَن كَانَ حَيّٗا وَيَحِقَّ ٱلۡقَوۡلُ عَلَى ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ

Liyunzira man kaana haiyanw-wa yahiqqal qawlu ‘alal-kaafireen

 That it may give admonition to any (who are) alive, and that the charge may be proved against those who reject (Truth).

أَوَلَمۡ يَرَوۡاْ أَنَّا خَلَقۡنَا لَهُم مِّمَّا عَمِلَتۡ أَيۡدِينَآ أَنۡعَٰمٗا فَهُمۡ لَهَا مَٰلِكُونَ

Awalam yaraw annaa khalaqnaa lahum mimmaa ‘amilat aideenaaa an’aaman fahum lahaa maalikoon

See they not that it is We Who have created for them – among the things which Our hands have fashioned – cattle, which are under their dominion?

وَذَلَّلۡنَٰهَا لَهُمۡ فَمِنۡهَا رَكُوبُهُمۡ وَمِنۡهَا يَأۡكُلُونَ

Wa zallalnaahaa lahum faminhaa rakoobuhum wa minhaa ya’kuloon

And that We have subjected them to their (use)? of them some do carry them and some they eat:

وَلَهُمۡ فِيهَا مَنَٰفِعُ وَمَشَارِبُۚ أَفَلَا يَشۡكُرُونَ

Wa lahum feehaa manaa fi’u wa mashaarib; afalaa yashkuroon

 And they have (other) profits from them (besides), and they get (milk) to drink. Will they not then be grateful?

وَٱتَّخَذُواْ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ ءَالِهَةٗ لَّعَلَّهُمۡ يُنصَرُونَ

Wattakhazoo min doonil laahi aalihatal la’allahum yunsaroon

Yet they take (for worship) gods other than God, (hoping) that they might be helped!

لَا يَسۡتَطِيعُونَ نَصۡرَهُمۡ وَهُمۡ لَهُمۡ جُندٞ مُّحۡضَرُونَ

Laa yastatee’oona nasrahum wa hum lahum jundum muhdaroon

They have not the power to help them: but they will be brought up (before Our Judgment-seat) as a troop (to be condemned).

فَلَا يَحۡزُنكَ قَوۡلُهُمۡۘ إِنَّا نَعۡلَمُ مَا يُسِرُّونَ وَمَا يُعۡلِنُونَ

Falaa yahzunka qawluhum; innaa na’lamu maa yusirroona wa maa yu’linoon

 Let not their speech, then, grieve thee. Verily We know what they hide as well as what they disclose.

أَوَلَمۡ يَرَ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ أَنَّا خَلَقۡنَٰهُ مِن نُّطۡفَةٖ فَإِذَا هُوَ خَصِيمٞ مُّبِينٞ

Awalam yaral insaanu annaa khalaqnaahu min nutfatin fa-izaa huwa khaseemum mubeen

 Doth not man see that it is We Who created him from sperm? yet behold! he (stands forth) as an open adversary!

وَضَرَبَ لَنَا مَثَلٗا وَنَسِيَ خَلۡقَهُۥۖ قَالَ مَن يُحۡيِ ٱلۡعِظَٰمَ وَهِيَ رَمِيمٞ

Wa daraba lanaa maslanw-wa nasiya khalqahoo qaala mai-yuhyil’izaama wa hiya rameem

And he makes comparisons for Us, and forgets his own (origin and) Creation: He says, “Who can give life to (dry) bones and decomposed ones (at that)?”

قُلۡ يُحۡيِيهَا ٱلَّذِيٓ أَنشَأَهَآ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٖۖ وَهُوَ بِكُلِّ خَلۡقٍ عَلِيمٌ

Qul yuh yeehal lazeee ansha ahaaa awwala marrah; wa Huwa bikulli khalqin ‘Aleem

 Say, “He will give them life Who created them for the first time! for He is Well-versed in every kind of creation!-

ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ لَكُم مِّنَ ٱلشَّجَرِ ٱلۡأَخۡضَرِ نَارٗا فَإِذَآ أَنتُم مِّنۡهُ تُوقِدُونَ

Allazee ja’ala lakum minash shajaril akhdari naaran fa-izaaa antum minhu tooqidoon

“The same Who produces for you fire out of the green tree, when behold! ye kindle therewith (your own fires)!

أَوَلَيۡسَ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ بِقَٰدِرٍ عَلَىٰٓ أَن يَخۡلُقَ مِثۡلَهُمۚ بَلَىٰ وَهُوَ ٱلۡخَلَّـٰقُ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ

Awa laisal lazee khalaqas samaawaati wal arda biqaadirin ‘alaaa ai-yakhluqa mislahum; balaa wa Huwal Khallaaqul ‘Aleem

“Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth able to create the like thereof?” – Yea, indeed! for He is the Creator Supreme, of skill and knowledge (infinite)!

إِنَّمَآ أَمۡرُهُۥٓ إِذَآ أَرَادَ شَيۡـًٔا أَن يَقُولَ لَهُۥ كُن فَيَكُونُ

Innamaa amruhooo izaaa araada shai’an ai-yaqoola lahoo kun fa-yakoon

 Verily, when He intends a thing, His Command is, “be”, and it is!

فَسُبۡحَٰنَ ٱلَّذِي بِيَدِهِۦ مَلَكُوتُ كُلِّ شَيۡءٖ وَإِلَيۡهِ تُرۡجَعُونَ

Fa Subhaanal lazee biyadihee malakootu kulli shai-inw-wa ilaihi turja’oon

 So glory to Him in Whose hands is the dominion of all things: and to Him will ye be all brought back.

Deem death to be the best of the unseen, which I may await. And make it the best scene, which is to come before me;

O God, there is only your glad tiding and there is nothing other than that, which can provide tranquility to my breast, pleasure to my soul, coolness to my eyes, joy to my face, shine to my complexion and peace to my heart. And the effect of its tranquility can become apparent on my complete being.

Invocation “Ya Samia Kulle Saut”

( يَا سَامِعَ كُلّ صَوْتٍ ) after Dhuhr prayers:’for reappearance of Imam ajtfs It was said in Falaahis Sa’il that the most important supplication after (Zuhr)noon prayer is to imitate Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him) in his supplication for Imam Al-Mahdi (peace be upon him).

On the authority of Ibad bn Muhammad Mada’in, he said: I arrived near Abu Abdullah in Medina when he finished his noon prayer and I met him raising his hands to the Heaven offering the following supplication:

يا سامِعَ كُلِّ صَوْتٍ ،
يا جامِعَ (كُلِّ فَوْتٍ) ،
يا بارِئَ كُلِّ نَفْسٍ بَعْدَ الْمَوْتِ ،

O’ He who hear all voice, O’ He who gathered every thing, O’ He who created soul after death,

O’ The Mighty over the oppressors, O’ The king of this world and the Hereafter,

يا رَبَّ الْأَرْبابِ ، يا مَلِكَ الْمُلُوكِ

O’ the Lord of the lords, O’ the King of the kings,

يا بَطَّاشُ ، يا ذَا الْبَطْشِ الشَّديدِ ، يا فَعَّالاً لِما يُريدُ ،

O’ the vigorous, O’ He who attain extreme vigorous, O’ He who did what He wishes,

يا مُحْصِيَ عَدَدِ الْأَنْفاسِ وَنَقْلِ الْأَقْدامِ ،

O’ He who knows the number of breaths and movement of feet,

يا مَنِ السِّرُّ عِنْدَهُ عَلانِيَةٌ ،
يا مُبْدِئُ ، يا مُعيدُ .

O’ He who to Him all secrets are visible, O’ the starter, O’ He who returns every thing.

أَسْأَلُكَ بِحَقِّكَ عَلى خِيَرَتِكَ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ ،
وَبِحَقِّهِمُ الَّذي أَوْجَبْتَ لَهُمْ عَلى نَفْسِكَ ،

I requested from You by the sake of your right over the best among Your creatures and for the sake of their right you have made incumbent on Yourself

أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَأَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ عَلَيْهِ وَعَلَيْهِمُ السَّلامُ ،
وَأَنْ تَمُنَّ عَلَيَّ السَّاعَةَ السَّاعَةَ بِفِكاكِ رَقَبَتي مِنَ النَّارِ ،
وَأَنْجِزْ لِوَلِيِّكَ وَابْنِ نَبِيِّكَ الدَّاعي إِلَيْكَ بِإِذْنِكَ ،

to send Your blessing on Muhammad and members of his house and to grant me the rescue of my neck from the Hell fire, execute for Your good friends from the descendant of Your Prophet, the callers to Your course with Your permission,

وَأَمينِكَ في خَلْقِكَ ،

وَحُجَّتِكَ عَلى خَلْقِكَ ،
عَلَيْهِ صَلَواتُكَ وَبَرَكاتُكَ وَعْدَهُ .

Your trustee among Your creatures, Your sight among Your servants, Your proof among Your creatures, may Your peace and blessing be upon him.

أَللَّهُمَّ أَيِّدْهُ بِنَصْرِكَ ،
وَانْصُرْ عَبْدَكَ ،
وَقَوِّ أَصْحابَهُ وَصَبِّرْهُمْ ،

O’ Allah! Support him with Your assistance and assist Your servant, empowered his companions and grant them patience

وَاجْعَلْ لَهُمْ مِنْ لَدُنْكَ سُلْطاناً نَصيراً ،
وَعَجِّلْ فَرَجَهُ ،
وَأَمْكِنْهُ مِنْ أَعْدائِكَ وَأَعْداءِ رَسُولِكَ ،
يا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمينَ .

Open for them a protected authority and hasten his relief, let him prevail over Yours and Your Prophet’s enemies, O’ the Most Merciful of the merciful.

1 Behaar al-Anwaar, vol. 86, p. 77; Mustadrak al-Wasaael, vol. 5, p. 96, Jamaal al-Saaleheen
I said to Imam: May my soul be sacrificed for you, isn’t you have prayed for yourself? He said: I have prayed to the light of the progeny of Muhammad (peace be on them) who shall retaliate against their enemies with the command of Almighty Allah.
I said: when will he be coming out?
When the owner of creations and command wishes, Imam replied. I said: what are the signs before then? He said: the signs are many and different. I said: like what? Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him) said: A banner shall come out from the east and west, sedition will persist and a man shall come out from Yemen among the descendant of my uncle Zaid, and there shall be plunding of the house properties[1] then Allah will act according to his wishes.[2]
It is in the book ‘Mikyaal ul Makarim’ that this supplication can be recited for the following benefits:
First: It is recommended to pray for his holiness (A.T.F.S.) and to request for hastening his reappearance after the ‘Zuhr’ prayer.
Second: It is recommended to lift hands while praying for his holiness (A.S.).
Third: It is recommended to regard the Holy Progeny (A.S.) as intercessors and to request in their favour before making a wish.
Fourth: It is recommended to praise and glorify Allah (S.W.T.) before beginning a supplication.
Fifth: It is recommended to send ‘Salawaat’ on Mohammad and his Holy Progeny (P.B.U.T.) before demanding a wish.
Sixth: Purifying ones soul from sins through repentance and the likes of it; so that the soul becomes purified and prepared for acceptance. The proof of this word is the request for forgiveness and freedom from hellfire requested by Imam (A.S.).
Seven: In the words of the Infallibles (A.S.) and their supplications, if the word ‘Wali’ is used singly, without any additions, then its implied on our Master, Imam Mahdi (A.S.).
Eighth: It is recommended to supplicate in the favour of the supporters and companions of his holiness (A.S.).
Ninth: Imam witnesses the actions of the followers in every condition, he watches them and their behaviour, towards which the line ‘Your eyes between your slaves’ indicates and implies.
Tenth: One of the nicknames of his holiness (A.S.) is the ‘Light of Mohammad’s Holy Progeny’. Its proof can also be witnessed in the narrations; ‘Muhaqqiq e Noori’ (R.A.) mentions a few of them in his book ‘Najm us Saqib’.
Eleventh: His holiness is superior and greater than all the Imams (A.S.) except Imam Ali (A.S.), Imam Hasan (A.S.) and Imam Husain (A.S.). This point is approved by other narrations as well.
Twelfth: Almighty Allah (S.W.T.) has treasured his holiness and has delayed his advent to avenge his enemies and the enemies of Prophet (P.B.U.H.). There are several narrations regarding this topic.
Thirteenth: The time of his Advent is amongst the concealed issues necessitated by the divine policy. It is also mentioned in several narrations.
Fourteenth: The signs mentioned in the narrations are not certain and indispensable; due to the line mentioned in the end, ‘Allah performs as per His own will’. [3]

and hasten the reappearance of Your retaliator from Your enemies and execute for him all You have promised him, O’ the possessor of Magnificence and Honour.

I said to him, whom did you prayed for? He said: to Al-Mahdi of the Prophet’s household (peace be on them).
He continued saying: may my father be sacrifice for him, his eyebrow are very close, his legs are very energetic, his shoulder is wide, brown in colour and close to be yellowish, may my father be sacrifice for him, his night shall guard the stars by his bowing down and prostration to Allah, may my father be sacrifice for him, he who the blames of those that blame shall not affect before Allah, he is the luminous lamp, may my father be sacrifice for him, he shall rise with the command of Allah.
I said to him, when will he come out? He said: when you saw armies from the city of Anbar in Iraq at the beach of Furat, sirah and Dajlah, and the arch of Kufah is destroy, and burning of some houses in Kufah, when you see all this, verily Allah will act according to His wish, no one can subdue the commandment of Allah and no one can review His Judgement.[1]

And sing the praise of your Lord before the rising of the sun and before the setting.

Imam al-Sadiq (`a) is reported to have said, “When the color of the sun changes (i.e. the sun is about to set), you must remember Allah the Almighty and Majestic. If you are at that hour with one who preoccupies you from this, you must leave him and supplicate.

In the name of God, the most gracious, the most merciful

تَبَٰرَكَ ٱلَّذِي بِيَدِهِ ٱلۡمُلۡكُ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيۡءٖ قَدِيرٌ

Tabaarakal lazee biyadihil mulku wa huwa ‘alaa kulli shai-in qadeer

Blessed is He in whose hands is all sovereignty, and He has power over all things.

ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ ٱلۡمَوۡتَ وَٱلۡحَيَوٰةَ لِيَبۡلُوَكُمۡ أَيُّكُمۡ أَحۡسَنُ عَمَلٗاۚ وَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلۡغَفُورُ

Allazee khalaqal mawta walhayaata liyabluwakum ayyukum ahsanu ‘amalaa; wa huwal ‘azeezul Ghafoor

He, who created death and life that He may test you [to see] which of you is best in conduct. And He is the All-mighty, the All-forgiving.

ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ سَبۡعَ سَمَٰوَٰتٖ طِبَاقٗاۖ مَّا تَرَىٰ فِي خَلۡقِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ مِن تَفَٰوُتٖۖ فَٱرۡجِعِ ٱلۡبَصَرَ هَلۡ تَرَىٰ مِن فُطُورٖ

Allazee khalaqa sab’a samaawaatin tibaaqam maa taraa fee khalqir rahmaani min tafaawut farji’il basara hal taraa min futoor

He created seven heavens in layers. You do not see any discordance in the creation of the All-beneficent. Look again! Do you see any flaw?

ثُمَّ ٱرۡجِعِ ٱلۡبَصَرَ كَرَّتَيۡنِ يَنقَلِبۡ إِلَيۡكَ ٱلۡبَصَرُ خَاسِئٗا وَهُوَ حَسِيرٞ

Summar ji’il basara karrataini yanqalib ilaikal basaru khaasi’anw wa huwa haseer

Look again, once more. Your look will return to you humbled and weary.

Wa lillazeena kafaroo bi rabbihim ‘azaabu jahannama wa bi’sal maser

For those who defy their Lord is the punishment of hell, and it is an evil destination.

Izaaa ulqoo feehaa sami’oo lahaa shaheeqanw wa hiya tafoor

When they are thrown in it, they hear it blaring, as it seethes,

تَكَادُ تَمَيَّزُ مِنَ ٱلۡغَيۡظِۖ كُلَّمَآ أُلۡقِيَ فِيهَا فَوۡجٞ سَأَلَهُمۡ خَزَنَتُهَآ أَلَمۡ يَأۡتِكُمۡ نَذِيرٞ

Takaadu tamayyazu minal ghaizz kullamaaa ulqiya feehaa fawjun sa alahum khazanatuhaaa alam ya’tikum nazeer

almost exploding with rage. Whenever a group is thrown in it, its keepers will ask them, ‘Did not any warner come to you?’

قَالُواْ بَلَىٰ قَدۡ جَآءَنَا نَذِيرٞ فَكَذَّبۡنَا وَقُلۡنَا مَا نَزَّلَ ٱللَّهُ مِن شَيۡءٍ إِنۡ أَنتُمۡ إِلَّا فِي ضَلَٰلٖ كَبِيرٖ

Qaaloo balaa qad jaaa’anaa nazeerun fakazzabnaa wa qulnaa maa nazzalal laahu min shai in in antum illaa fee dalaalin Kabeer

They will say, ‘Yes, a warner did come to us, but we impugned [him] and said, ‘Allah did not send down anything; you are only in great error.’

وَقَالُواْ لَوۡ كُنَّا نَسۡمَعُ أَوۡ نَعۡقِلُ مَا كُنَّا فِيٓ أَصۡحَٰبِ ٱلسَّعِيرِ

Wa qaaloo law kunnaa nasma’u awna’qilu maa kunnaa feee as haabis sa’eerv

And they will say, ‘Had we listened or applied reason, we would not have been among inmates of the Blaze.’

فَٱعۡتَرَفُواْ بِذَنۢبِهِمۡ فَسُحۡقٗا لِّأَصۡحَٰبِ ٱلسَّعِيرِ

Fa’tarafoo bizambihim fasuhqal li as haabis sa’eer

Thus they will admit their sin. So away with the inmates of the Blaze!

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَخۡشَوۡنَ رَبَّهُم بِٱلۡغَيۡبِ لَهُم مَّغۡفِرَةٞ وَأَجۡرٞ كَبِيرٞ

Innal lazeena yakhshawna rabbahum bilghaibi lahum maghfiratunw wa ajrun Kabeer

Indeed for those who fear their Lord in secret there will be forgiveness and a great reward.

Wa asirroo qawlakum awijharoo bih; innahoo ‘aleemum bizaatis sudoor

Speak secretly, or do so openly, indeed He knows well what is in the breasts.

أَلَا يَعۡلَمُ مَنۡ خَلَقَ وَهُوَ ٱللَّطِيفُ ٱلۡخَبِيرُ

Alaa ya’lamu man khalaqa wa huwal lateeful khabeer

Would He who has created not know? And He is the All-attentive, the All-aware.

هُوَ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ ذَلُولٗا فَٱمۡشُواْ فِي مَنَاكِبِهَا وَكُلُواْ مِن رِّزۡقِهِۦۖ وَإِلَيۡهِ ٱلنُّشُورُ

Huwal lazee ja’ala lakumul arda zaloolan famshoo fee manaakibihaa wa kuloo mir rizqih; wa ilaihin nushoor

It is He who made the earth tractable for you; so walk on its flanks and eat of His provision, and towards Him is the resurrection.

ءَأَمِنتُم مَّن فِي ٱلسَّمَآءِ أَن يَخۡسِفَ بِكُمُ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ فَإِذَا هِيَ تَمُورُ

‘A-amintum man fissamaaa’i aiyakhsifa bi kumul arda fa izaa hiya tamoor

Are you secure that He who is in the sky will not make the earth swallow you while it quakes?

أَمۡ أَمِنتُم مَّن فِي ٱلسَّمَآءِ أَن يُرۡسِلَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ حَاصِبٗاۖ فَسَتَعۡلَمُونَ كَيۡفَ نَذِيرِ

Am amintum man fissamaaa’i ai yursila ‘alaikum haasiban fasata’lamoona kaifa nazeer

Are you secure that He who is in the sky will not unleash upon you a rain of stones? Soon you will know how My warning has been!

وَلَقَدۡ كَذَّبَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡ فَكَيۡفَ كَانَ نَكِيرِ

Wa laqad kazzabal lazeena min qablihim fakaifa kaana nakeer

Certainly those who were before them had impugned [My apostles]; but then how was My rebuttal!

أَوَلَمۡ يَرَوۡاْ إِلَى ٱلطَّيۡرِ فَوۡقَهُمۡ صَـٰٓفَّـٰتٖ وَيَقۡبِضۡنَۚ مَا يُمۡسِكُهُنَّ إِلَّا ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُۚ إِنَّهُۥ بِكُلِّ شَيۡءِۭ بَصِيرٌ

Awalam yaraw ilat tairi fawqahum saaaffaatinw wa yaqbidn; maa yumsikuhunna il’lar rahmaan; innahoo bikulli shai in baseer

Have they not regarded the birds above them spreading and closing their wings? No one sustains them except the All-beneficent. Indeed, He watches all things.

أَمَّنۡ هَٰذَا ٱلَّذِي هُوَ جُندٞ لَّكُمۡ يَنصُرُكُم مِّن دُونِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِۚ إِنِ ٱلۡكَٰفِرُونَ إِلَّا فِي غُرُورٍ

Amman haazal lazee huwa jundul lakum yansurukum min doonir rahmaan; inilkaafiroona illaa fee ghuroor

Who is it that is your host who may help you, besides the All-beneficent? The faithless only dwell in delusion.

Amman haazal lazee yarzuqukum in amsaka rizqah; bal lajjoo fee ‘utuwwinw wa nufoor

Who is it that may provide for you if He withholds His provision? Indeed, they persist in defiance and aversion.

أَفَمَن يَمۡشِي مُكِبًّا عَلَىٰ وَجۡهِهِۦٓ أَهۡدَىٰٓ أَمَّن يَمۡشِي سَوِيًّا عَلَىٰ صِرَٰطٖ مُّسۡتَقِيمٖ

Afamai yamshee mukibban ‘alaa wajhihee ahdaaa ammany yamshee sawiyyan ‘alaa siratim mustaqeem
