Do not include me among the\nastrayed ones, nor ignorant ones, nor the polytheists, nor among those\nwhom the Satan has overpowered and deviated and has made him far\naway from his destination, and the one who made his desires, his lord.\nAnd pure is Allah Who hears the cries of the restless and whom the\nharm has afflicted and He knows the secrets, the Lord of the good and\nevil and there is no Lord except Allah that when His creature sins, He\noverlooks it, and sympathetically hastens towards the one who calls Him\nand Allah is Great and Exalted. His kingdom is vast, His partner\nnon-existent, His throne is worth praise, and His Wrath severe. O My\nLord! I invoke You as the one, who has not found anyone better than\nYou, to grant his desires and have confidence in You as the one who\nhas not found anyone better than You to confide in, because You are\nthe One Who has initiated the beginning, and have brought it in\nexistence and it came into being by Your command in the destined limit.\nAnd You are far Great and Majestic that by looking at Your signs, the\nintellect can comprehend You. And You are so much aware that nothing\nfrom the Heavens and the earth is hidden from You, only You are\nGenerous Who does not stop the bestowals due to continuous plea of\nthe seekers. Your order for the creatures is that You wish and it\nmaterializes. Your order is enforced, Your promise is certain, Your\ndecision is Just, nothing is hidden from You, everything will return to\nYou. You are concealed in the veils of Your bounties, that You are not\nseen, but is present in solitude, You are the greatest of all, Unique in\nMagnificence and overpowering due to life and power. You are praised\nin this World as well as in the Hereafter. And Your thanks in the\nbeginning and the end. O my Lord! You are forbearing and Powerful,\nMerciful and forgiving, a true master, the subduer, the sustainer, a\nmatchless creator, the acceptor of supplications, and the one Who hears\nit, the destiny of the far off scattered people is in Your power and\nstrength. The Ever living, the Self Existing, the Munificent, the Glorious,\nthe Kind, the Merciful, O my Lord You are such a Creator that You are\nking of all the kings. The head is bowed down in front of the Great fear.\nOur Holy people are punctual in Your obedience, and due to Your\nHoliness, You are a possessor of greatness and Praise. The custody of\nYour Creatures is not expensive for You and the bestowal of the\nbounties on Your creatures does not decrease it. You are knower of the\nUnseen, You have covered my defects and You are aware of the\namount of my sins. And You have blessed me with the love of Your\nreligion. O the merciful do not remove the cover from me (my sins) and\nO the bestower of favours, do not degrade me, I pray to You to bestow\nblessings upon Muhammad (s.a.w.a.) and his progeny and by Your\nGrace increase my sustenance the pure and Holy. Forgive my sins,\nwhich prove as a barrier between You and me, as You are only capable\nto be Merciful towards me by Your Mercy and save me from Your severe\nchastisement, and place me among Your Honourable creatures. O my\nLord put me among those pious souls whom the angles carry in the state\nof purity, and say \"Peace be on You\" go and enter Heaven in exchange\nof Your good deeds. O the Clement O the Rich for the sake of Your\nBeneficence and Mercy I beseech You to bless Muhammad (s.a.w.a.)\nand his progeny and make me handle the rights of my mother and father\nand fulfill their obligations on my behalf and divide me with them and my\nbrothers and sisters and put me and the believing man male and\nfemales among the doers of good. Forgive me and all those with me,\nindeed You are worth the praise and deserve the greatness. Bestow\nYour Mercy on our Prophet and on all his family.","title":"The Alawite Book: His Supplication for Tuesday","type":"page"}
