Again there is no lord but Allah and again\nthere is no lord but Allah and that there is no lord except Allah. As He\nHimself says that there is no lord except Allah as His creatures testify.\nAnd Allah is great as His creatures have testified it. And Allah is Pure as\nHis creatures have glorified Him. And the Praise is for Allah as His\nThrone has Praised Him and there is no lord but Allah in the way His\nThrone and the things below the throne have testified it. Allah is the\ngreatest as is testified by His throne and the things below it. And praise\nbe to Allah in the manner as He is praised in the heavens and the earth.\nI mention the purity of Allah as His angels have glorified Him and there is\nno lord but Allah as His angels have testified it. Allah is great, in the way\nas the angels narrate it. In this manner the Praise is for Allah as His\nheavens testify it. Allah is the Greatest as His Throne glorifies and this\nknowledge circles everyone. Praise is for Allah in the way the ocean\nprays and all the things in it. And there is no lord but Allah as is testified\nby the ocean and things in it. Praise is for Allah in the manner the\nHereafter and this world and its inhabitants praise Him. And Allah is\ngreatest as is testified by the Hereafter, this world and its inhabitants.\nPraise is for Allah to such an extent by which He is pleased and is an\nadornment for His throne to the extent of eternal happiness and in an\nunparallel manner. Praise is for Allah before everything, with everything\nand equal to all the number. Praise if for Allah equal to His verses and to\nHis Names, to the number of inhabitants of Heaven and Hell. And there\nis no lord but Allah to the extent of the verses and His Names and the\ninhabitants of Heaven and Hell. Praise be to Allah, to the extent it\nbecomes uncountable by imagination or by numbers. Glory be to Allah!\nPurified be He to the extent which cannot be measured by strength or by\nnumbers. And Allah is the greatest to such an extent, which cannot be\nimagined by numbers, strength or imagination. Praise is for Allah to the\nextent of stars, water in the sea, leaves on the trees and hair on the\nhead. There is no lord but Allah to the extent of stars, water in the sea,\nleaves on the tree and hair on the head. Praise be to Allah to the\nnumbers of pebbles, seeds, earth, and jinns and men. Allah is the\ngreatest to the extent of pebbles, seeds, earth, jinns and men. Glory be\nto Allah to the numbers of pebbles, seeds, earth, jinns and men. I wish to\npraise Allah to such an extent, after which there is no praise left in the\nknowledge of the Lord. I say there is no lord but Allah in such a way that\nthere is no way left for expressing the oneness of Allah. I say Allah is\ngreatest in such a way that in the knowledge of Lord there is no other\nway of expressing it. I glorify Allah to such an extent and mention His\npurity in such a way that there is no glorification left in the knowledge of\nthe Lord. Praise is for Allah till the end of the worship, before the\nworship and after the worship and there is no lord but He, till the end of\nworship, before the worship and after the worship and Allah is the\ngreatest which is the extent of worship will remain before and after the\nworship and Praise is for Allah equal to the number of all the praises and\nas compared to such examples is manifold times, still this Praise and\nGlorification is little for Allah. He is far more great as compared to the\nnumber of all these glorification and all these are nothing as compared\nto Him. And I say, \"There is no Power or majesty save Allah\" so many\ntimes that to the extent of above mentioned things nay, more than that in\nreality, still it is less for Him. And Allah bless Muhammad (s.a.w.a.) and\nhis Progeny to the extent of above-mentioned things. And a request of\nrepentance and forgiveness from Allah other than Whom there is no\ngod. He is living and Self-subsisting, this is also equal to the number of\nthings mentioned earlier, and I request in His Presence for every sin\nwhich is present in my deeds every disobedience which I have\ncommitted, this repentance is also equal to the number of things\nmentioned earlier.

O Allah! O\nBeneficent! I take the help of these names, which are great and liked (by\nYou). O Allah! O Beneficent! I call You by those names in which Your\npleasure is included! O Allah! O Beneficent! Before everything, after\neverything and in the measure of everything. Bless Muhammad\n(s.a.w.a.) and his Progeny to the extent that no one can understand the\nmeasure except You. Bestow blessings to the extent of number of things\npresent and to the extent of things mentioned in Your book, which Your\nknowledge encompasses, and deal with me by your standards and not\nby any standards. I seek from You the necessities of this world and the\nHereafter if Allah wishes and Mercy and blessing of Allah on His\nappointed and chosen Muhammad who is the chief of the Prophets and\non his progeny and peace be on them.","title":"The Alawite Book: Dua-e-Mazkoor","type":"page"}
