Inside the prayer

Opening supplication

اللَّهُمَّ بَاعِدْ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ خَطَايَايَ كَمَا بَاعَدْتَ بَيْنَ الْمَشْرِقِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ، اللَّهُمَّ نَقِّنِي مِنْ خَطَايَايَ كَمَا يُنَقَّى الثَّوْبُ الْأَبْيَضُ مِنَ الدَّنَسِ، اللَّهُمَّ اغْسِلْني مِنْ خَطَايَايَ، بِالثَّلْجِ وَالْماءِ وَالْبَرَدِ

Allahumma ba'id baynee wabayna khatayaya kama ba'adta baynal-mashriqi walmaghrib, allahumma naqqinee min khatayaya kama yunaqqath-thawbul-abyadu minad-danas, allahummagh-silnee min khatayaya biththalji walma'i walbarad.

O Allah, distance me from my sins as You have distanced the east from the west. O Allah, purify me of my sins as a white garment is purified of dirt. O Allah, wash away my sins with snow, water and hail.

Opening supplication

سُبْحانَكَ اللَّهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ، وَتَبارَكَ اسْمُكَ، وَتَعَالَى جَدُّكَ، وَلاَ إِلَهَ غَيْرُكَ

Glory be to You, O Allah, and praise be to You. Blessed is Your name, exalted is Your majesty, and none has the right to be worshipped except You.

وَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِيَ لِلَّذِي فَطَرَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ حَنِيفاً وَمَا أَنَا مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ، إِنَّ صَلاَتِي، وَنُسُكِي، وَمَحْيَايَ، وَمَمَاتِي لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ، لاَ شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَبِذَلِكَ أُمِرْتُ وَأَنَا مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ. اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ الْمَلِكُ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ، أَنْتَ رَبِّي وَأَنَا عَبْدُكَ، ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي وَاعْتَرَفْتُ بِذَنْبِي فَاغْفِرْ لِي ذُنُوبِي جَمِيعاً إِنَّهُ لاَ يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ. وَاهْدِنِي لِأَحْسَنِ الأَخْلاَقِ لاَ يَهْدِي لِأَحْسَنِهَا إِلاَّ أَنْتَ، وَاصْرِفْ عَنِّي سَيِّئَهَا، لاَ يَصْرِفُ عَنِّي سَيِّئَهَا إِلاَّ أَنْتَ، لَبَّيْكَ وَسَعْدَيْكَ، وَالْخَيْرُ كُلُّهُ بِيَدَيْكَ، وَالشَّرُّ لَيْسَ إِلَيْكَ، أَنَا بِكَ وَإِلَيْكَ، تَبَارَكْتَ وَتَعَالَيْتَ، أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْكَ

I have turned my face towards Him who created the heavens and the earth, upright, and I am not of those who associate others with Allah. My prayer, my sacrifice, my life and my death are for Allah, Lord of the worlds; He has no partner, with this I have been commanded, and I am of the Muslims. O Allah, You are the King, none has the right to be worshipped except You. You are my Lord and I am Your servant. I have wronged myself and I acknowledge my sin, so forgive me all my sins, for none forgives sins except You. Guide me to the best of character, for none guides to it except You, and turn away from me its evil, for none turns it away except You. Here I am at Your service, all good is in Your hands and evil is not attributed to You. I exist by You and return to You; blessed and exalted are You. I seek Your forgiveness and repent to You.

O Allah, Lord of Jibril, Mika'il and Israfil, Creator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the seen: You judge between Your servants in what they differ. Guide me, by Your leave, to the truth in what is disputed; indeed You guide whom You will to a straight path.

Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest. Much praise is for Allah, much praise is for Allah, much praise is for Allah. Glory be to Allah morning and evening, glory be to Allah morning and evening, glory be to Allah morning and evening. I seek refuge in Allah from the devil: from his pride, his poetry and his madness.

O Allah, to You belongs all praise; You are the Light of the heavens and the earth and all within them. To You belongs all praise; You are the Sustainer of the heavens and the earth and all within them. To You belongs all praise; You are the Lord of the heavens and the earth and all within them. To You belongs all praise; Yours is the dominion of the heavens and the earth and all within them. To You belongs all praise; You are the King of the heavens and the earth. To You belongs all praise. You are the Truth, Your promise is true, Your word is true, the meeting with You is true, Paradise is true, the Fire is true, the prophets are true, Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is true, and the Hour is true. O Allah, to You I have submitted, in You I have placed my trust, in You I have believed, to You I have turned in repentance, by You I have disputed, and to You I have turned for judgement. So forgive me what I have done before and what I will do after, what I have kept secret and what I have made public, and what You know better than I. You are the One who brings forward and the One who defers; none has the right to be worshipped except You. You are my God, none has the right to be worshipped except You, and there is no might nor power except with Allah.

O Allah, help me to remember You, to thank You, and to worship You well.

O Allah, by Your knowledge of the unseen and Your power over creation, keep me alive as long as You know life to be good for me, and take my soul when You know death to be better for me. O Allah, I ask You for fear of You in secret and in public, I ask You for the word of truth in contentment and in anger, I ask You for moderation in wealth and in poverty, I ask You for bliss that never ends, I ask You for delight that never ceases, I ask You for contentment after the decree, I ask You for a pleasant life after death, I ask You for the delight of gazing upon Your Face and the longing to meet You, without harmful distress or misleading trial. O Allah, adorn us with the adornment of faith, and make us guides who are rightly guided.

O Allah, I ask You, for to You belongs all praise; none has the right to be worshipped except You, alone, without partner, the Bestower. O Originator of the heavens and the earth, O Possessor of majesty and honour, O Ever-Living, O Self-Sustaining: I ask You for Paradise and I seek refuge in You from the Fire.

Istikharah (seeking guidance)

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْتَخِيرُكَ بِعِلْمِكَ، وَأَسْتَقْدِرُكَ بِقُدْرَتِكَ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ مِنْ فَضْلِكَ الْعَظِيمِ؛ فَإِنَّكَ تَقْدِرُ وَلاَ أَقْدِرُ، وَتَعْلَمُ وَلاَ أَعْلَمُ، وَأَنْتَ عَلاَّمُ الْغُيُوبِ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ هَذَا الأَمْرَ (وَيُسَمِّي حَاجَتَهُ) خَيْرٌ لِي فِي دِينِي وَمَعَاشِي وَعَاقِبَةِ أَمْرِي، عَاجِلِهِ وَآجِلِهِ، فَاقْدُرْهُ لِي وَيَسِّرْهُ لِي ثُمَّ بَارِكْ لِي فِيهِ، وَإِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ هَذَا الأَمْرَ شَرٌّ لِي فِي دِينِي وَمَعَاشِي وَعَاقِبَةِ أَمْرِي، عَاجِلِهِ وَآجِلِهِ، فَاصْرِفْهُ عَنِّي وَاصْرِفْنِي عَنْهُ وَاقْدُرْ لِيَ الْخَيْرَ حَيْثُ كَانَ، ثُمَّ أَرْضِنِي بِهِ

Allahumma innee astakheeruka bi'ilmik, wa-astaqdiruka biqudratik, wa-as'aluka min fadlikal-'atheem, fa-innaka taqdiru wala aqdir, wata'lamu wala a'lam, wa-anta 'allamul-ghuyoob.

O Allah, I seek Your guidance by Your knowledge, I seek ability by Your power, and I ask You of Your great bounty; for You are able and I am not, You know and I do not, and You are the Knower of the unseen. O Allah, if You know that this matter (name your need) is good for me in my religion, my livelihood and the outcome of my affairs, in the near and the far term, then decree it for me, make it easy for me, and bless me in it. And if You know that this matter is bad for me in my religion, my livelihood and the outcome of my affairs, in the near and the far term, then turn it away from me and turn me away from it, decree for me what is good wherever it may be, and make me content with it.

NoteWhen you intend a matter, pray two voluntary units of prayer and then say this supplication. Whoever seeks guidance from the Creator, consults the believers, and acts with deliberation does not regret.

Qunut of the witr prayer

اللَّهُمَّ اهْدِنِي فِيمَنْ هَدَيْتَ، وَعَافِنِي فِيمَنْ عَافَيْتَ، وَتَوَلَّنِي فِيمَنْ تَوَلَّيْتَ، وَبَارِكْ لِي فِيمَا أَعْطَيْتَ، وَقِنِي شَرَّ مَا قَضَيْتَ؛ فَإِنَّكَ تَقْضِي وَلاَ يُقْضَى عَلَيْكَ، إِنَّهُ لاَ يَذِلُّ مَنْ وَالَيْتَ، وَلاَ يَعِزُّ مَنْ عَادَيْتَ، تَبَارَكْتَ رَبَّنَا وَتَعَالَيْتَ

O Allah, guide me among those You have guided, grant me well-being among those You have granted well-being, take care of me among those You have taken care of, bless me in what You have given, and protect me from the evil of what You have decreed; for You decree and none decrees against You. Whoever You befriend is never humiliated, and whoever You oppose is never honoured. Blessed are You, our Lord, and exalted.

Qunut of the witr prayer

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِرِضَاكَ مِنْ سَخَطِكَ، وَبِمُعَافَاتِكَ مِنْ عُقُوبَتِكَ، وَأَعُــــوذُ بِكَ مِنْكَ، لاَ أُحْصِي ثَنَاءً عَلَيْكَ، أَنْتَ كَمَا أَثْنَيْتَ عَلَى نَفْسِكَ

Allahumma innee a'oothu biridaka min sakhatik, wabimu'afatika min 'uqoobatik, wa-a'oothu bika mink, la ohsee thana-an 'alayk, anta kama athnayta 'ala nafsik.

O Allah, I seek refuge in Your pleasure from Your anger, in Your pardon from Your punishment, and I seek refuge in You from You. I cannot enumerate Your praise; You are as You have praised Yourself.

Qunut of the witr prayer

اللَّهُمَّ إِيَّاكَ نعْبُدُ، وَلَكَ نُصَلِّي وَنَسْجُدُ، وَإِلَيْكَ نَسْعَى وَنَحْفِدُ، نَرْجُو رَحْمَتَكَ، وَنَخْشَى عَذَابَكَ، إِنَّ عَذَابَكَ بِالكَافِرِينَ مُلْحَقٌ. اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّا نَسْتَعينُكَ، وَنَسْتَغْفِرُكَ، وَنُثْنِي عَلَيْكَ الْخَيْرَ، وَلاَ نَكْفُرُكَ، وَنُؤْمِنُ بِكَ، وَنَخْضَعُ لَكَ، وَنَخْلَعُ مَنْ يَكْفرُكَ

Allahumma iyyaka na'bud, walaka nusallee wanasjud, wa-ilayka nas'a wanahfid, narjoo rahmatak, wanakhsha 'athabak, inna 'athabaka bilkafireena mulhaq. Allahumma inna nasta'eenuk, wanastaghfiruk, wanuthnee 'alaykal- khayr, wala nakfuruk, wanu'minu bik, wanakhda'u lak wanakhla'u man yakfuruk.

O Allah, You alone we worship, to You we pray and prostrate, to You we hasten and serve. We hope for Your mercy and fear Your punishment; indeed Your punishment will reach the disbelievers. O Allah, we seek Your help and Your forgiveness, we praise You with all good, we do not disbelieve in You, we believe in You, we submit to You, and we renounce whoever disbelieves in You.

After the witr prayer

سُبْحَانَ الْمَلِكِ الْقُدُّوسِ

Subhanal-malikil-quddoos.

Glory be to the King, the Most Holy.

NoteThree times; on the third, raise and prolong the voice and add: Lord of the angels and the Spirit.
