His Supplication for removing troubles
known as Dua-e-Yamani
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
O Allah! You are the master of the Universe. There is no God except
You. And I am Your believer. I have oppressed myself. I confess my sins.
So forgive my sins There is no god but You, the forgiving. O Allah I
praise You and You are deserving for this praise. You granted me
whatever I wished for and sent me Your best favours and made me
happy due to these favours and gave me Your favourable opinion. I
received all these rewards. You removed my troubles. Give me good
guidance and accept my supplications. As far as I pray to You with
keenness and call You with sincerity of intention and I extremely keep
hopes from You and I find You present everywhere. You are never too
late to improve my dealings and take care of my condition and keep
secret my faults. Your kindness is never separated for a moment from
me. From the time You destined that I should think of making a
presentation to You, You showed Your favour because I was Your
liberated slave. O my Lord! All troubles and all confusions and sorrows
and sufferings attacked severely from everywhere for Your decisions
and kept me occupied in hard troubles. I do not remember if You have
done anything except kindness and I have not seen anything except
Your mercy. Your good vi rtues and Your grace continuously
accompanied me. You bounties accompanied continuously. Fear did not
frighten me due to Your great favour. You fulfilled my desires and
accompanied me in my travel and increased my honour in my stability,
recovery from illness and made my destination and relapse pleasant and
did not allow my enemies to mock me. You attack those who attack me,
and prevent me from enemy's enmity. O my Lord! There were some
hidden enemies who tried hard to kill me. They showed their enmity
openly and aimed at me to kill me and tried to mislead me. O My Lord!
You saw that I am unable to bear all these and I cannot stand face their
challenge and I am all alone and they are waiting for a chance and I am
unable to succeed. Then O my Lord, You sent Your divine help and
gave me support and made them weak. And in spite of their being
numerous made them alone and gave me strength to achieve eminence
and returned them with sorrow and they could not satisfy their desires
and could not suppress their anger and demand with constant taunting
to hide their weakness. When he returned turning his face, his party
broke their promise and their desires became lifeless. O Allah! Many
rebellious ones tried to be superior by their crafty tricks and tried to
catch me and came to me silently just as wild beasts come to their prey
and the prey waiting for a chance to escape from it. He was showing his
flattering smile on the face. O My Lord! When You find his fraud in his
mind, gave his mortal wound on his brain and pushed him in the pit,
which he dug by himself. You turned him back and wounded by stones
and swords of his own and strangled his throat with his own ropes and
choked the throat of his own fraud and made him regret of his own. So
he became disappointed and weak. Though he was restive in the
beginning and now he became despicable and helpless. He was very
strong in the beginning and he has become disgraced and a prisoner.
He wanted to see me tied in the strings and if I would be caught and if
You would not send Your blessing, the same calamity would befall me
instead of him. Now all praise to Him Who has power over all things and
cannot be entangled in it, and the reality of his guardianship is
considerate. He is the Self-Existing and never inattentive. He is the
forbearing and not debased. O my Lord! I call You and seek protection
from You and rely on Your quick acceptance, and I know it very well that
You dispel my enemies and I know whoever comes under Your
protection, never becomes sad nor the hard troubles shake him. You
give him relief to those who take help from You. O my Lord! Make me
free by means of Your divine power and make me free from the enmities
of the enemy. O Allah! There were so many evils in my way but You
cleared them. There were so many bounties, that You granted and
flowed the streams by Your divine power and there were so many
calamities on my way that You destroyed. You spread Your bounties
and destroyed the darkness of sorrows. You dispersed the clouds of
calamities and put on the robes of honour. And established the future
incidents when You will ask for anything, nothing can make You tired.
Whenever I think of You, no one can prevent me. O Allah! Many jealous
persons wanted to be superior and made me unhappy by facile tongue
and looked at me with cursory glance and made me dishonoured and
made me habitual as he was before. But You helped me in this matter. O
Allah, I had many good faiths and You proved it and removed my poverty
and ignorance and increased my livelihood. You removed my weakness
and gave me strength and solved difficulties. Also changed my poverty
and bestowed bounties. We cannot ask what You are doing and there is
no stinginess whatever You grant. You granted me whatever I asked
and if I didn't ask, You preceded first and whenever I requested, You
never disappointed me. You refused to do anything except rewards,
obligation and blessings and my situation is that I disobeyed Your
commands and didn't do anything. I exceeded Your limits and I became
negligent about Your wrath and devoted Your enemy (Shaitan). Even
then You abstained from executing Your rewards and did not prevent
(unlucky) me from Your anger. O My Lord! This is the stage where Your
confessing accused has failed to confess. To pay Your dues and gives
evidence that Your bounties and guardianship is completed. O My Lord!
O Cherisher! Grant me that, which I can reach by means of Your bounty
and guidance for Your obedience and can be safe from Your wrath,
because You can do whatever You like and can order whatever You
like. You have power over all things. O my Lord! My praise is for You
and will remain forever till centuries with various purities by way of
glorifications. I shall praise You only for Your remembrance and Your
permission and I shall mention Your Greatness in a friendly manner. I
shall mention Your qualities for a long time to falsify idolatry. As no one
is Your helper and no one is Your partner in Your sovereignty. None
could see You when You bound down the things for different intention.
You have created the whole universe of different type so that the human
being cannot tear the curtains of the invisible world. I believe in You but I
am beseized in Your grandeur. There is no particular of Your eternal
existence and no possibilities of Your personal appearance and no high
similarity of status can reach to You and no deep mental thoughts can
reach to You and no observer's eyes can see Your omnipotence. Your
divine attribute is highest than human attributes. Your honour and
grandeur is more eminent than human attributes. If You want to
increase, it cannot decrease and if You want to decrease, it cannot
increase. There was no one when You created the world. There was no
risk of any opposition then You sent the spirits in the world. According to
the law of attributes the dumb and senses are tired in Your actual mystic
knowledge. How can attributes come at Your court or how can
poisonous nature enclose You? Because You are the Powerful and
Pure and Eternal and the invisible hand of Heaven forever. You are
Unique. No one is there and no one will be there except You. The
deepest ways and entangled in worries in Your domination and eyes of
prudence are tired to understand You and the kings are bent down and
are helpless and hang their faces down in shame and beseech before
Your dignity and bowed down their heads in shame. Everything is
obedient in comparison of Your nature and the necks of all people are
bent before Your sovereignty and on the basis of Your colourful
attributes, mentally efforts are misled. That is why whoever think for
Your praise his eyes turn back and his sense confused and amazed. O
Allah! Your Praise is coherent, continuously and strong forever and
never perish. The praise in Your limited world would not become less to
intimate the knowledge of God. Your praise in beautiful nights and bright
dawn, in dryness and wetness, in the morning, noon and night daily
repeating. O Allah! You made me free from Your Guidance and took me
in Your protection and did not force me more than my strength because
You are pleased by my obedience. If I give thank You verbally or make
an attempt, I cannot fulfill Your magnificent rights with either thanks nor
changes in Your mercy because there is no other god except You.
Nothing is concealed in Your sight. Nothing is secret for You. You
cannot lose the absorbed properly in the darkness of concealment. Of
course, when You want to do anything, it flourished before saying let
there be and before intending. O Allah! Your praise, by which You have
praised Yourself and praiseworthy people praise You and the great
people praise Your grandeur, respected people mentioned Your
greatness. Hence I am all alone in a twinkling of an eye or less than this
time. I praise You more than others and all who have sincerity of
intention and who love to have an intimate knowledge of You and all
created people and animals, I praise You is less. O Allah! You have
given strength in my tongue to praise You. I thank for it, because
whatever trouble You have given me for this matter is very less and
what You have promised me after expressing this is very great. You
granted me Your favour from the very beginning was Your graciousness.
Then You commanded to thank for Your graciousness was Your
justification and promised to give great rewards. You granted me my
livelihood so that You can take trial of me and granted me more instead
of less and an ordinary debt and kept me in Your safety and did not
entrust me in Your hard trial. You bestowed me good livelihood and
health and granted me more grace and promised to grant a high position
along with conveying good news of great grade of safety and chosen me
for intercession of our great and best of all Prophets, Muhammad
Mustafa (s.a.w.a.) our Holy Prophet (as the friend of God, intercessor in
hereafter, Companion of sinners and the venerable person (s.a.w.a.). O
My Lord! Forgive my sins. There is no other place for forgiveness. No
one can obliterate without Your forgiveness. Give me surely in this
moment so that all the worldly troubles are easy to bear. Make one a
righteous person for Your inclination and forgive me. Grant me miracles
and give me the guidance to thank for Your bounties. As You are my
Lord, the High and Unique and the knower. No one can disobey Your
command and no one can prevent You from Your judgment. I have faith;
You are my Lord and the Provider. You are the Master of the earth and
the Heaven, invisible and the knower and the Great. O Allah! Show me
the right way. I pray and thanks for bounties and invoke blessings. I
seek protection from enemies’ tyranny, from traitors’ rebellion, and from
the jealousy of a jealous one. O Allah! I attack my enemy with Your help
and seek friendship of friends from You and I am hopeful for inefficient
benefits of Your blessings and various kinds of provisions and bounties,
because You are Allah and there is no other Allah. Your praise is
everywhere and Your hands are open for generosity. There is no one to
challenge Your commands. There is no one to dispute in Your world. No
one can appeal to anyone against Your commands. You can get hold of
anyone. No one can become an owner without Your permission. You
are the master of blessings and rewards, Unique and Able. Your purities
are mentioned in Your pure light. You are respected with a robe of
honour. You are Great due to Your nature and grandeur. You have
mastery over the splendid light. You continuously increase Your
adornment of Your majesty. O Allah! Your magnificent praise, former
obligations, great kingship, generosity and possession of nature are all
elegant for You and continuously praise that never comes to end and
from border to ever last never ended. Because You have created me
from the progeny of Adam (a.s.) and made me healthy and spotless that
I can see and hear properly and protect me from physical deformity and
mental weakness. There is no trouble on my assimilation and no defect
in my intellect. Your obligations, and good favours and bounties never
prevent to do a favour. On the contrary, increased my livelihood and
made me superior on the worldly people and gave me the sense of
hearing so that I can hear Your reinforcement properly and gave me
good sight that I can see Your natural phenomena. You became my
helper and bestowing a heart that can observe Your greatness, You
gave me Your protection. The tongue confesses Your oneness.
Undoubtedly I am very thankful for Your graciousness. I am a confessor
of Your rights and I am a plaintiff in Your court for my troubles and
obstacles, because You are Eternal and everlasting. You are the
inheritor of the inhabitants of the earth and You and only one and best
among the inheritors. O Allah! Do not restrain Your favours and do not
send Your wrath as a punishment. Do not make any changes whatever I
have and do not disappoint me from Your strong chastity. If I do not
remember Your favours and rewards You remember Your forgiveness
and it is very important for me. You accepted my prayer when I raised
my head for Your praise. (To raise the head was for Your praise only)
and not for mention of my major share. If You increased it, there is no
scarcity for You and if You decrease my livelihood in distribution, then it
would be excess in Your property. O Allah! Your expanse knowledge is
equal to Your praise and according to quantity of Your expanse
blessings is more than current existing things. The continuous repetition
of Your praise is of equal weight of Your beautiful names and bounties.
O My Lord! Complete Your favours in my remaining life as You obliged
in my present life because I want to be reach by means of Your
Oneness and pronouncing Islamic Creed, and congregational prayers
and by means of Your beautiful names I say, You have created human
beings by Your greatness and superiority. Now man cannot go
anywhere leaving Your supremacy. O Allah! I pray by means of Your
secret names, do not deprive me from Your favours and benefits of Your
miracles, and do not entrust me to anyone except You. Do not entrust
me in the hand of my enemy. Do not put me in the guardianship of my
soul and do Your favour from Your great favours. Make my good deeds
beautiful in the world, fulfill my desires here and make my last return in
hereafter beautiful because You are not dependent on Your gifts and
pulling hand does not increase Your wealth of great blessings. Your
great rewards do not decrease Your endowment and Your great favours
do not affect Your current rewards. You have no fear of the shame of
poverty, that You pull Your hand from giving, and You have no danger of
poverty so that benefit of Your kingdom should be less. O my Lord!
Make my heart full of true faith on You and do not make me fearless
from Your wrath and do not make me oblivious from Your remembrance
and do not give up keeping a secret, do not make anyone superior on
me except You, do not disappoint me from Your grace but hide me in
Your efficiency, and do not disappoint me from Your beautiful rewards.
Be my helper in my confusion and supporter in my embarrassment. Be
my redress and release me from all difficulties and errors and save me
from all troubles and settled Your bounties and save me from my wrath
and turn out all the difficulties, destructions and wrath from me, grant me
honour to secure the Holy Quran and improve my condition and help me
in the world and in the hereafter, improve the condition of my children,
increase my livelihood in plenty, pay attention to me and do not be
inattentive. O Allah! Make me achieve eminence, do not despise me.
Have pity on me, do not curse me and help me, do not make me alone.
Make me successful and do not make anyone succeed on me. Remove
my difficulties and give me spaciousness. Accept my prayer soon and
remove my difficulties. You have power over all things. Everything is
easy for You as You are the Generous and the Sovereign.
