اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّا نَسْتَعِينُكَ وَنَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَنُؤْمِنُ بِكَ وَنَتَوَكَّلُ عَلَيْكَ وَنُثْنِي عَلَيْكَ الْخَيْرَ وَنَشْكُرُكَ وَلَا نَكْفُرُكَ وَنَخْلَعُ وَنَتْرُكُ مَنْ يَفْجُرُكَ اللَّهُمَّ إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ وَلَكَ نُصَلِّي وَنَسْجُدُ وَإِلَيْكَ نَسْعَى وَنَحْفِدُ وَنَرْجُو رَحْمَتَكَ وَنَخْشَى عَذَابَكَ إِنَّ عَذَابَكَ بِالْكُفَّارِ مُلْحِقٌ
Allahumma inna nasta’inuka wa nastaghfiruk, wa nu’minu bika wa natawakkalu alayk, wa nuthni alaykal-khayr, wa nashkuruka wa la nakfuruk, wa nakhla’u wa natruku man yafjuruk. Allahumma iyyaka na’bud, wa laka nusalli wa nasjud, wa ilayka nas’a wa nahfid, wa narju rahmatak, wa nakhsha adhabak, inna adhabaka bil-kuffari mulhiq.
O Allah, we seek Your help and forgiveness, believe in You, rely on You, praise You with good, thank You and are not ungrateful to You. We cast off and abandon whoever disobeys You. O Allah, You alone we worship; for You we pray and prostrate; to You we hasten and serve; we hope for Your mercy and fear Your punishment — indeed Your punishment will overtake the disbelievers.
