Many were the things to which I was inattentive, but You\ncreated awareness in me. Thus You made it easy for me to draw\nbenefits therefrom and removed the ill effects thereof and saved me from\ntotal deprivations therefrom. Without myself knowing it, You protected\nme. There is no power or might but You. So praise be to You for Your\nkindness and favours. O Allah! Many, many were the matters of which I\nwas unaware, but You guided me, corrected my ideas about them,\nfavoured me with good insight, made me successful in my aims and\nmade help available to me, so praise be to You beyond all measures, O\nLord of the Worlds! O Allah! Bless Muhammad (s.a.w.a.) the Ummi\nProphet, agreeable, pleased, holy, pious, blessed, clean, sacrosanct,\nguarding against evil, pure and faithful and also bless his holy and\nvirtuous progeny as You blessed Ibrahim (a.s.) and his children. Verily\nYou are Praiseworthy and sublime. O Allah! I beseech You in the name\nof all Your attributes to bestow Your Blessings on Muhammad, Your\nprophet and his Progeny and to kindly forgive all my sins whether past\nor present, big or small, open or secret, known or unknown to me which\nYou have reckoned with but I have forgotten. O Allah! O Allah! O the\nBeneficent! O the Beneficent! O the Merciful! O the Merciful! Hallowed\nare You O Allah! with Your praise. There is no god save You. I ask Your\nforgiveness and turn penitent towards You. You are my Allah, the place\nto lodge all complaints and for all needs. You have commanded Your\nbondsmen to invoke You and You have promised to accept the same,\nVerily You are ever Nigh and ready Answerer. O my Allah! Hallowed are\nYou. You are with all praise: and there is no god except You. How lofty\nis Your name amidst the dwellers of Heavens and how Praiseworthy are\nYour deeds amongst the inhabitants of the Earth! How profusely are\nYour bounties diffused on the earth and in the Oceans! O Allah! praise\nbe to You. There is no god save You. I seek forgiveness from You and\nturn penitent to You. You are affectionate and to You one should turn for\nhelp. You caused the rain to fall from the clouds and bestow livelihood.\nYou distribute the sustenance, decide about the ages, bestow upon\nmankind their requirements, irrigate the land, grow the fruits. You are the\npossessor of great blessings. O Allah! Praise be to You. There is no\nGod beside You. I seek mercy and turn penitent towards You. You are\nhearer of complaints and the object of our inclination. You cause the rain\nto fall. The thunder and the angles glorify You with praise out of fear for\nYou. The Arsh, the low columns of the sky, the winds, things in between\nthem and below, under the earth, the sun, the moon, the stars,\nilluminations, the darkness, the light, the shadow, pleasant shades of\nHeaven and the heat of the Hell, all praise You. Glory be to You. You\nset the mountains in motion and blow that winds. Hallowed are You.\nThere is no god save You and I seek Your pardon and to You I turn\npenitent. Hallowed are You. I beseech You for the sake of Your\nreverential name, in the name of the establishers of Your Arsh, those in\nYour Heavens and Earth, in the oceans, in the atmosphere, the\ndarkness, the turbulent seas, those in the abyss, and those between the\neast and west. Glory be to You. O Allah! Praise be to You. There is no\ngod save You. I seek forgiveness and turn penitent to You. Glory be to\nYou. There is no God except You. I pray to You for the grant of my\nsolicitations and for enabling me to thank You in weal and woe. Glory be\nto You for There is no god save You. When You glanced at the skies,\ntheir layers became solidified and when You glanced at the pillars of the\nearth, their ends trembled. Glory be to You. When You looked at what is\nin the oceans and their storms, they began foaming. You are Glorified.\nAll this happened because of fear and awe from You. You are Holy. You\nglance at East and West and at what is between them in the\natmosphere, which You are encompassing, made them submit with\nhumility towards the glory of the most glorious face of Yours. Glory be to\nYou for there was none to help You in raising the skies and in\nestablishing Your sublime Authority. Glory be to You for there was none\npresent when You spread and stretched forth the earth, and then made\nit a resting place. Who can excel You in Your powers? None. Glory be to\nYou. Who was there to have seen You when You established the\nmountains and blessed Your creatures by making them strong and firm?\nNone. Glory be to You. Who was there to have helped You when You\nset the seas in motion surrounding the earth? None. Hallowed are You.\nThere is no god save You. Praise be to You. There is nothing that can\nbe Your equal or rival. There is nothing that can escape from You or can\nget rid of Your powers. O Allah! Glory be to You. There is no god beside\nYou. When my insight thinks of Your awe the eyes weep on the\nunawareness of my heart. Glory be to You. How great is Your\nforbearance, how nicely Your order is in force and how beautiful is the\ncreation created by You! Glory be to You! There is no god save You.\nNone can reach the limit of Your praise or the essence of Your reality, or\nknow the extent of Your realm. Glory be to You. In Your presence eyes\nbecome bewildered and hearts get filled with fright of You and are\nawe-struck with Your grandeur. Glory be to You O Allah! There is no\ngod save You. Praise be to You. How forbearing! How Just, and how\nCompassionate and Merciful! And how Great Listener and what an\nAll-knowing You are. Glory be to You! There is no god but You.\nDisappoint me not of Your mercy and take me not to task. I beseech\nYour mercy. O the Lord of the Worlds, Grant this Prayer!","title":"The Alawite Book: His supplication for the tenth of the m...","type":"page"}
