Glory be to Allah. Praise be to Allah.

There is no god Save Allah. Allah is great. There is no might. And no power, except (with) Allah, the Highest Supreme. Glory be to Allah, hour by hour in the night, and hour after hour in the day. Glory be to Allah, when day breaks, and at the time of sunset. Glory be to Allah, in the shadows of early evening, in the twilight of morning. Glory be to Allah, when the evening passes away, and the morning departs (All) praise is unto Him, in the heavens and the earth, whether it is dark night, or broad daylight, He makes life come out from death, and lets death destroy life, He makes the soil grow fruitful again, after it becomes barren, like that shall you come out to face the Trial.

Glory be to your lord, the lord of Glory, who is above that which they attribute to Him, and peace be on (His) Messengers. (All) praise be to Allah, the lord of the worlds. Glory be to the lord of sovereignty and power. Glory be to the lord of might and majesty. Glory be to the lord of supreme authority. And vast unlimited, everlasting kingdom; the Holy who keeps His promise. Glory be to Allah, the Ever living Master, who never ceases to exist. Glory be to Allah, the Ever pure lord. Glory be to the Everlasting Eternal. Glory be to the Eternal Everlasting Glory be to the Supreme Lord. Glory be to the Highest lord. Glory be to the Everlasting, the ever living. Glory be to the Highest High. Glory be to He, who is extensively praised. Glorified and worshiped is our lord, the lord of the Angels and heavenly spirits, evermore glorified, never unaware. Glory be to the All-aware, not dependent on any medium of information. Glory be to the Creator. Of all that which is visible, and invisible. Glory be to He who is fully aware of the act of perceiving, but is beyond the reach of perception, and is subtly All-Knowing.

O Allah! Each day I open my eyes, in the midst of Thy bounties generosity, blessings, care and protection. Send thy blessings on Mohammad and on his children, and bring to fullness for me, Thy bounties, and generosity, blessings, care and protection, by keeping me safe from the fire of Hell. Bestow upon me Thy rewards, welfare, favors, and kindness, forever, as long as Thou keeps me alive. O Allah! Enlightened by Thy truth I find the right path. These favors keep me satisfied. Amid Thy bounties I begin my day, and go to sleep. O Allah! I sincerely call Thee to be my witness; sufficient is Thy testimony, and I call to witness Thy angels, Thy Prophets, Thy Messengers, supporters of Thy Arsh, and the dwellers of the heavens and the earth, and all that has been created by Thee, (to say) that Thou art Allah; there is no God except Thou, one and only, having no partner to share with Thee; that Mohammad, (Blessings of Allah be on him and on his children), is Thy servant and Messenger, and that Thou, over all things, has absolute authority. Thou brings to life, Thou puts to death. Thou makes dead, Thou keeps alive.

I bear witness that paradise is true, Hell is real, resurrection is certain, the hour of Reckoning shall surely come, and Allah will raise the dead from the graves. I bear witness that Ali ibn Abi Talib, is the chief of the faithfuls, most worthy and true, and that the Imams, from among his children, are the rightly guided Divine Guides, never going astray, nor showing the wrong path, but are Thy close friends, superior men belonging to thee, chosen and made perfect, from among Thy creation, of high rank and birth, Thou selected for Thy religion, and particularly distinguished them, higher than others, placed Thy trust in them, preferring them to Thy other servants, made them decisive arguments for all the worlds. Thy blessings be on them, and peace; and mercy of Allah, and His abundant blessings. O Allah! Kindly put on record my evidence, so that Thou makes me say it again on the Day of Judgement, fully satisfied with me. Verily Thou does what Thou wills. O Allah! (all) praise is for Thee; Praise that diffuses its beginning (backtracks to timeless infinity), that does not overtake its end (goes on beyond eternity). O Allah! (All) praise is for Thee; Praise that regulates the skies and its projection. That sets the earth afloat (in orbit) and those who are there. O Allah! All praise is for Thee; Everlasting, Eternal praise, nothing cuts off its continuity, never goes waste or loose color, but moves swiftly and proudly towards Thee, till it reaches Thee. It (Thy praise) is inside me, around me, ahead of me, behind me, next to me, in front of me, over me, below me, whether asleep, or awake; (unique incomparable), till I die. All praise is for Thee, when the dead will be raised, and will be brought to life again, O Allah! All praise is for Thee! Thankfulness is unto Thee, together with all Thy praise, for all Thy bounties altogether, so much profound praise that Thou, our lord, desires and accepts. O Allah! All praise is for Thee, for all gains, satisfactions, courageous actions, possessions, joy and happiness, and knowledge of all situations.

O Allah! All praise is for Thee, abiding praise, surrounding Thy Eternity. All praise is for Thee; praise that knows no bounds, but only Thou knows. All praise is for Thee; praise that does not fade away, but moves towards Thy direction. All praise that the well aware sing not, unless approved by Thee. All praise is for Thee, for Thy indulgence, in spite of the knowledge Thou has. All praise is for Thee, for Thy forgiveness, in spite of the absolute authority Thou has. All praise is for Thee, the sole purpose of praise. All praise is for Thee, the beneficiary of praise. All praise is for Thee, the original identification of praise. All praise is for Thee, the ultimate intention of praise. All praise is for Thee, the first subject of praise. All praise is for Thee, the hopeful expectation of praise. All praise is for Thee, the hopeful expectation of praise. All raise is for Thee, the beloved is for Thee, the eternal praiseworthy. All praise is for Thee, the truthful who keeps his promise, and fulfills the covenant, (who has) rare and prevailing means, (Thy) Glory goes on forever and ever. All praise is for Thee, Raiser of ranks. (Thou) give answer to prayers. From above the seven heavens Thy signs come down, carrying countless blessings, bringing out light from darkness, leading him, who is in the gutter of ignorance, to the light of wisdom, transforming ugliness of evil into the beauty compensating virtue with handsome recompense. O Allah! All praise is for thee, (who) forgives sins, accepts repentance, brings down severe punishment, and grants remission. There is no god except Thou. Unto Thee will return (one and all). O Allah! All praise is for thee, in night when darkness spreads far and wide. All praise is for Thee, in daytime when light unfolds its luster here and there. All praise is for Thee, till the very end, from the earliest beginning. All praise is for Thee, as much as the stars, and the Angels, in the heavens. All praise is for Thee, equal to the odd, even and infinite number. All praise is for Thee, equal to that which is in the expanse of the skies. All praise for Thee, equal to that which is inside the layers of the ground. All praise is for Thee, equal to the full and weight and bulk of the water, found everywhere, altogether. All praise is for thee, equal to the branches and leafs of trees and plants. All praise is for thee, equal to that which is over the face of the earth. All praise is for Thee, equal to all that which Thy Holy book tells and describes. All praise is for Thee, equal to all that which Thy wisdom surrounds. All praise is for Thee, equal to the total number of men and jinn, reptiles, birds, animals, and wild beasts. A great many praise, pure and blessed, just as Thou wishes for, O our lord! And most satisfying, which gets known, and circulates on account of Thy noble pre-eminence, and sublime glory.

(Recite each of the following 10 times) there is no god save Allah; The One, without an associate. For Him is sovereignty, and for Him is all praise. He is aware of every detail, definite and exact. There is no god save Allah; the One, without an associate. For Him is sovereignty, and for Him is all praise. He brings to life and puts to death. He is dead, He keeps alive. He is Ever-Alive, never non-existent. All good is in His hand, And He is able to do all things. I ask for Allah’s forgiveness. There is no god save Him, the Everliving, that Everlasting, and I turn repentant unto He.

(Now say)

(say 10 times)

There is no authority and no might, I rely upon the Everliving. The immortal. All the praise be to Allah who has not taken unto Himself a son, who has no partner in sovereignty, nor He has any protecting friend through dependence. And I say, loud and clear, the great and sublime words “Allahu Akbar”. O Allah!
