I seek Mercy from You for the guidance of my heart, for\nconverging my affairs and setting them in order, for improving me in my\nreligion, from protection during my absence from home, and for\nprosperity when at home, increase in my wealth, for longevity in life,\nease in my affairs, for concealing my short comings and for seething\nright the disordered affairs of my life, for repulsion of all that I dislike, for\nmaking my face lustrous and for protecting us me against all evils for the\nrest of my life. O Allah! You are the Foremost with none to precede You,\nYou are the last none to be after You. You are Manifest, there is none\ncomparable to You, being Manifest You are Hidden and being Hidden\nYou are Manifest. You are Hidden due to Your subtlety for Your\nmanifest creation observing You from the different directions of the earth\nbeing far off, despite Your closeness You are far. There is no god save\nYou. Bless Muhammad (s.a.w.a.) and his Progeny and improve me in\nmy faith which gives me immunity from sins, and improve me in my world\nin which is my livelihood, and improve my Hereafter to which is my\nreturn, and grant me a life with virtuous deeds, and grant me happiness\nin exchange of every evil at the time of death. O Allah! All praise be for\nYou before the commencement of every performance and all praise be\nfor You after the completion of every performance. O the Succourer! To\nthose who seek help. O the Alleviator of sufferings! O the Answerer of\nthe call of the distressed! O the Dispeller of the severe agony! O the\nMost Merciful! Dispel my uneasiness and sadness for none can dispel it\nsave You as You know my condition, and the sincerity of my intention\nwith which I pin my hopes to achieve Your goodness and benevolence.\nBless Muhammad (s.a.w.a.) and his Progeny and fulfill my wants, O the\nMost Merciful! O Allah! All praise be for You and for You is all authority\nand for You is all might and pride, and for You is all greatness and in\nYour hands is all good. To You is the return of all affairs manifest or\nsecret. O Allah! There is none to guide whom You let go astray and\nnone can misguide him whom You guide. None can stop that which You\nbestow and none can bestow that which You withhold. None can put at\nthe end whom You put ahead and none can put ahead whom You put at\nthe end. None can open that You close and none can close that You\nopen. Bless Muhammad (s.a.w.a.) and his Progeny and bestow on me\nliberally from Your blessings, favours, mercy and sustenance. O Allah! I\nRequest You for wealth during poverty and peace during fear and also\npermanent bounties which should neither wane nor change. O Allah!\nThe Lord of seven Heavens and the Lord of seven Earths and what is in\nthem and in between them, our Lord and Lord of everything, the\nRevealer of Torah, Injeel, Zaboor and the Great Quran, the splitter of\nthe grain and date stone, I seek protection against the evil of every\nwicked and from the harm of the living creature whom You hold under\nYour control by its forelock; Verily my Lord is on the right Path, never\nunjust to anyone, and he is over everything Powerful and encompasses\neverything. O Allah! You are the Foremost with none to precede You.\nYou are the last none to be after You. You are Manifest with none above\nYou. You are Hidden. Nothing is comparable to You. Bless Muhammad\n(s.a.w.a.) and his Progeny. In the name of Allah. I believe in Allah, with\nAllah I seek refuge, and I under His shelter protect myself from evil.\nThrough the Might and Power of Allah I become inaccessible to Satan\nand others like him, their deceits, their armies, their traps and to\neveryone of his companion. I seek refuge with the perfect and blessed\nwords of Allah, neither the virtuous nor the vicious can escape the\ninfluence therefrom, and with all the beautiful exalted names of Allah\nknown to me or not, I seek protection against the evils He created, and\nfrom the vicissitude of fortune, except the mishap behind which is hidden\ngood luck and happiness from You. O Allah! I seek refuge with You\nagainst evil emanating from myself, against the evil gaze of every\nobserver, against the evil of every hearing ear, against the evil of every\nspeaking tongue, against the evil of every attacking hand, against the\nevil of every moving stem and against the evils of days and night I am\nafraid of. O Allah! Whoso endeavours to manipulate against me through\nrevolt, oppression, viciousness and evil manners whether he be a Jinn\nor a man, from close vicinity or from a distance, small or big, kindly\nsqueeze his chest, hold his hand, paralyse his legs destroy his tricks\nand manipulation, kill him, destroy his rage, set him against his own self\nintervene between him and me, and support me with Your Power and\nMight. Verily You are Powerful over everything.","title":"The Alawite Book: His supplication for the twenty-seventh of the month","type":"page"}
