I beseech You by every Name with which You have named Yourself
اوْ انْزَلْتَهُ فِي شَيْءٍ مِنْ كُتُبِكَ
or which You have sent down in one of Your scriptures
اوِ ٱسْتَاثَرْتَ بِهِ فِي عِلْمِ ٱلْغَيْبِ ٱلَّذِي عِنْدَكَ
or kept for Yourself in the knowledge of the Unseen with You,
وَبِمَعَاِقدِ ٱلْعِزِّ مِنْ عَرْشِكَ
by the junctures of might for Your Throne,
وَبِمُنْتَهَىٰ ٱلرَّحْمَةِ مِنْ كِتَابِكَ
by the utmost limit of mercy from Your Book,
وَبِمَا ﴿وَلَوْ انّ َمَا فِي ٱلارْضِ مِنْ شَجَرَةٍ اقْلاَمٌ
by the fact that, “though all the trees in the earth were pens
وَٱلْبَحْرُ يَمُدُّهُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ سَبْعَةُ ابْحُرٍ
and the sea – seven seas after it to replenish it,
مَا نَفِدَتْ كَلِمَاتُ ٱللَّهِ
yet the words of Allah not be spent.
إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ﴾
Allah is All-mighty, All-wise.”
وَاسْالُكَ بِاسْمَائِكَ ٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
And I beseech You by Your Most Excellent Names
ٱلَّتِي نَعَتَّهَا فِي كِتَابِكَ فَقُلْتَ:
that You have described in Your book thus saying,
﴿وَلِلَّهِ ٱلاسْمَاءُ ٱلْحُسْنَىٰ فَٱدْعُوهُ بِهَا﴾
“To Allah belong the Most Excellent Names, so call Him by them!”
وَقُلْتَ: ﴿ادْعُونِي اسْتَجِبْ لَكُمْ﴾
And You said: “Call upon Me and I will answer you.”
وَقُلْتَ: ﴿وَإِذَا سَالَكَ عِبَادِي عَنِّي فَإِنِّي قَرِيبٌ
And You said: “And when My servants ask you concerning Me, then surely I am very near;
اجِيبُ دَعْوَةَ ٱلدَّاعِي إِذَا دَعَانِي﴾
I answer the prayer of the suppliant when he calls on Me.”
وَقُلْتَ: ﴿قُلْ يَا عِبَادِي ٱلَّذِينَ اسْرَفُوا عَلَىٰ انْفُسِهِمْ
And You said: “Say: O My servants who have been prodigal against yourselves;
لاَ تَقْنَطُوا مِنْ رَحْمَةِ ٱللَّهِ
do not despair of Allah’s mercy.
إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَغْفِرُ ٱلذُّنُوبَ جَمِيعاً
Surely, Allah forgives all sins.
إِنَّهُ هُوَ ٱلْغَفُورُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ﴾
Surely, He is the All-forgiving, the All-compassionate.”
وَانَا اسْالُكَ يَا إِلٰهِي
And I ask You, O my God,
وَادْعُوكَ يَا رَبِّ
I call You, O my Lord,
وَارْجَوكَ يَا سَيِّدِي
I please You, O my Master,
وَاطْمَعُ فِي إِجَابَتِي يَا مَوْلايَ كَمَا وَعَدتَّنِي
and I desire for You to respond to me, O my Protector, just as You have promised me—
وَقَدْ دَعَوْتُكَ كَمَا امَرْتَنِي
for I have called You just as You have commanded me.
فَٱفْعَلْ بِي مَا انتَ اهْلُهُ يَا كَرِيمُ
So, do to me what is worthy of You, O All-generous!
وَٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ ٱلْعَالَمِينَ
All praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.
وَصَلَّىٰ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِهِ اجْمَعِينَ
May Allah bless Muhammad and his entire Household.
Then you may pray Almighty Allah to grant you your personal requests and they will be granted, Allah willing. According to the narration mentioned in Muhaj al-Da`awat, one must say this supplication while being in a state of ritual purity.
