The Last Night of ramadan

أَسْتَغْفِرُ الله وأَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ

I seek the forgiveness of Allah and I repent before Him.

اللَّهُمَّ هٰذَا شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ ٱلَّذِي انْزَلْتَ فِيهِ ٱلْقُرْآنَ وَقَدْ تَصَرَّمَ

allahumma hadha shahru ramadana alladhi anzalta fihi alQur'ana wa qad tasarrama

O Allah, this month of Ramadhan in which You revealed the Qur'an is about to come to its end.

وَاعُوذُ بِوَجْهِكَ ٱلْكَرِيمِ يَا رَبِّ

wa a`udhu biwajhika alkarimi ya rabbi

I seek refuge with Your Noble Face, O Lord,

انْ يَطْلُعَ ٱلْفَجْرُ مِنْ لَيْلَتِي هٰذِهِ

an yatlu`a alfajru min laylati hadhihi

that it dawns tonight

اوْ يَتَصَرَّمَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ

aw yatasarrama shahru ramadana

or the month of Ramadhan elapses

وَلَكَ قِبَلِي تَبِعَةٌ اوْ ذَنْبٌ تُرِيدُ انْ تُعَذِّبَنِي بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقَاكَ

wa laka qibali tabi`atun aw dhanbun turidu an tu`adhdhibani bihi yawma alqaka

but I am still liable to an offense or a sin that You want to punish me for committing it when I will meet You.

يَا مُدَبّرَ الأُمُورِ،

yaa madabbiral umoor

O the Director of all affairs;

يَا بَاعِثَ مَنْ فِي القُبُورِ،

yaa baa—i’tha man fil quboor

O the Resurrector of all those in graves;

يَا مُجْرِيَ البُحُورِ،

yaa mujriyal buh’oor

O He Who causes oceans to flow;

يَا مُلَيّنَ الحَدِيدِ لِدَاوُدَ

yaa mulayyinal h’adeedi li—dawood

O He Who made the iron pliant for (Prophet) David;

صَلّ عَلَى مُحَمّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمّدٍ…

s’aali a’laa muh’aamadin wa aali muh’ammad

(Please) send blessings upon Muhammad and the Household of Muhammad

و افعل بی...

waf—a’lbee

And do for me (mention your legitimate desires)

أللَّهُمَّ يَا مَنْ لا يَرْغَبُ فِي الْجَزَاءِ،

al-laahum-ma yaa mal-laa yar-ghabu fil-jazaaa-i

1O God, O He who desires no repayment!

وَلاَ يَنْدَمُ عَلَى الْعَطَآءِ،

wa yaa mal-laa yandamu a'laal-a't'aaa-i

2O He who shows no remorse at bestowal!

وَيَا مَنْ لاَ يُكَافِئُ عَبْدَهُ عَلَى السَّوآءِ،

wa yaa mal-laa yukaafi-u a'b-dahoo a'laas-sawaaa-i

3O He who rewards not His servant tit for tat!

مِنَّتُكَ ابْتِدَاءٌ، وَعَفْوُكَ تَفَضُّلٌ،

min-natuka ab-tidaaa- wa a'f-wuka tafaz'-z'ul

4Your kindness is a new beginning, Your pardon gratuitous bounty,

وَعُقُوبَتُكَ عَـدْلٌ، وَقَضَاؤُكَ خِيَرَةٌ،

wa u'qoobatuka a'd-l wa qaz'aaaw-uka kheearah

5Your punishment justice, Your decree a choice for the best!

إنْ أَعْطَيْتَ لَمْ تَشُبْ عَطَآءَكَ بِمَنٍّ،

in aa'-t'ay-ta lam tashub a't'aaa-aka biman

6If You bestowest, You stainest not Your bestowal with obligation,

وَإنْ مَنَعْتَ لَمْ يَكُنْ مَنْعُكَ تَعَدِّيا

wa im-mana'-ta lam yakum-man-u'ka taa'd-deeaa

7and if You withholdest, You withholdest not in transgression.

تَشْكُرُ مَنْ شَكَرَكَ وَأَنْتَ أَلْهَمْتَهُ شُكْرَكَ،

tash-kuru man shkaraka wa anta al-ham-tahoo shuk-rak

8You showest gratitude to him who thanks You, while You hast inspired him to thank You.

وَتُكَافِئُ مَنْ حَمِدَكَ وَأَنْتَ عَلَّمْتَهُ حَمْدَكَ،

wa tukaafi-u man h'amidaka wa anta a'l-lam-tahoo h'am-dak

9You rewardest him who praises You, while though You hast taught him Your praise.

تَسْتُرُ عَلَى مَنْ لَوْ شِئْتَ فَضَحْتَهُ

wa tas-turu a'laa mal-law shi-ta faz'ah'-tah

10You coverest him whom, if You willed, You wouldst expose,

وَتَجُودُ عَلَى مَنْ لَوْ شِئْتَ مَنَعْتَهُ،

wa tajoodu a'laa mal-law shi-ta manaa'-tah

11and You art generous toward him from whom, if You willed, You wouldst withhold.

وَكِلاَهُمَا أَهْلٌ مِنْكَ لِلْفَضِيحَةِ وَالْمَنْعِ،

wa kilaahumaaa ah-lum-minka lil-faz'eeh'ati wal-man-i'

12Both are worthy of Your exposure and withholding,

غَيْرَ أَنَّكَ بَنَيْتَ أَفْعَالَكَ عَلَى التَّفَضُّلِ،

ghay-ra an-nak banay-ta afaa'alaka a'laat-tafaz'-z'ul

13but You hast founded Your acts upon gratuitous bounty,

وَأَجْرَيْتَ قُدْرَتَكَ عَلَى التَّجَاوُزِ،

wa aj-ray-ta qud-rataka a'laat-tajaawuz

14channelled Your power into forbearance,

وَتَلَقَّيْتَ مَنْ عَصَاكَ بِالحِلْمِ،

wa talaq-qay-ta man a's'aaka bil-h'il-m

15received him who disobeyed You with clemency,

وَأمْهَلْتَ مَنْ قَصَدَ لِنَفْسِهِ بِالظُّلْمِ

wa am-hal-ta man qas'ada linaf-sihee biz'-z'ul-m

16and disregarded him who intended wrongdoing against himself.

تَسْتَنْظِرُهُمْ بِأناتِكَ إلى الإنَابَةِ وَتَتْرُكُ مُعَاجَلَتَهُمْ إلَى التَّوْبَةِ

tastanz'iruhum bi naatika ilaal-inaabah wtat-ruku mua'ajalatahum ilaat-taw-bah

17You awaitest their turning back without haste and refrainest from rushing them toward repentance,

لِكَيْلاَ يَهْلِكَ عَلَيْكَ هَالِكُهُمْ،

likay-laa yah-lika a'lay-ka haalikuhum

18so that the perisher among them may not perish because of You

وَلا يَشْقَى بِنِعْمَتِكَ شَقِيُّهُمْ

wa laa yash-qaa binia'-matika shaqee-yuhum

19and the wretched may not be wretched through Your favour,

إلاَّ عَنْ طُولِ الإِعْذَارِ إلَيْهِ،

il-laa a'n t'oolil-ia'-d'aari ilay-h

20but only after Your prolonged excusing him

وَبَعْدَ تَرَادُفِ الْحُجَّةِ عَلَيْهِ

wa baa'-da taraadufil-h'uj-jati a'lay-h

21and successive arguments against him,

كَرَماً مِنْ عَفْوِكَ يَا كَرِيْمُ،

karamam-min a'f-wika yaa kareem

22as an act of generosity through Your pardon, O Generous,

وَعَائِدَةً مِنْ عَطْفِكَ يَا حَلِيمُ.

wa a'aa-idatam-min a't'-fika yaa h'aleem

23and an act of kindliness through Your tenderness, O Clement!

أَنْتَ الَّذِيْ فَتَحْتَ لِعِبَادِكَ بَاباً

antal-lad'ee fatah'-ta lii'baadika baaban

24It is You who hast opened for Your servants a door

إلَى عَفْوِكَ وَسَمَّيْتَهُ التَّوْبَـةَ،

ilaa a'f-wika wasam-may-tahut-taw-bah

25to Your pardon, which You hast named 'repentance'.

وَجَعَلْتَ عَلَى ذلِكَ البَابِ دَلِيلاً مِنْ وَحْيِكَ

wa jaa'l-ta a'laa d'alikal-baabi daleelam-miw-wah'-yika

26You hast placed upon that door a pointer from Your revelation,

لِئَلاَّ يَضِلُّوا عَنْهُ فَقُلْتَ تَبَارَكَ اسْمُكَ :

li-al-laa yaz'il-loo a'n-hoo faqul-ta tabaaraka as-muka:

27lest they stray from it: You hast said (blessed is Your Name),

(تُوبُوا إلَى الله تَوْبَةً نَصُوحاً عَسَى رَبُّكُمْ

(tooboo ilaal-laahee taw-batan-nas'ooh'ana a'saa rab-bukum

28"Repent toward God with unswerving repentance! It may be that Your Lord

أَنْ يُكَفِّـرَ عَنْكُمْ سَيِّئاتِكُمْ وَيُدْخِلَكُمْ

ay-yukaf-fira a'nkum say-yi-aatikum wayud-khilakum

29will acquit of your evil deeds and will admit you into

جَنَّات تَجْرِي مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الأنْهَارُ

jan-naatin taj-ree min tah'-tihaal-an-haaru

30gardens beneath which rivers flow,

يَوْمَ لاَ يُخْزِي اللهُ النَّبِيَّ

yaw-ma laa yukh-zeel-laahun-nabee-ya

31upon the day when God will not degrade the Prophet

وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مَعَهُ نُورُهُمْ يَسْعَى بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَبِأَيْمَانِهِمْ

wal-lad'eena aaamanoo maa'hoo nooruhum yas-a'a bay-na ay-deehim wabiay-maanihim

32and those who have faith along with him, their light running before them and on their right hands,

يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا أَتْمِمْ لَنا نُورَنَا وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا

yaqooloona rab-banaaa at-mim lanaa nooranaa wagh-fir lanaaa

33and they say: 'Our Lord, complete for us our light, and forgive us!

إنَّكَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْء قَدِيرٌ)

in-naka a'laa kul-li shay-in qadeerun)

34Surely You art powerful over everything" (66:8).

فَمَا عُذْرُ مَنْ أَغْفَلَ دُخُولَ ذلِكَ الْمَنْزِلِ

famaa u'd'-ru man agh-fala dukhoola d'alikal-manzili

35What is the excuse of him who remains heedless of entering that house

بَعْدَ فَتْحِ الْبَابِ وَإقَامَةِ الدَّلِيْلِ،

baa'-da fat-h'il-baabi wa iqaamatid-daleeli?

36after the opening of the door and the setting up of the pointer?

وَأَنْتَ الَّذِي زِدْتَ فِي السَّوْمِ عَلَى نَفْسِكَ لِعِبَادِكَ

wa antal-lad'ee zit-ta fis-saw-mi a'laa naf-sika lii'baadika

37It is You who hast raised the price against Yourself to the advantage of Your servants,

تُرِيدُ رِبْحَهُمْ فِي مُتَاجَرَتِهِمْ لَكَ،

tureed rib-h'ahum fee mutaajaratihm lak

38desiring their profit in their trade with You,

وَفَوْزَهُمْ بِالْوِفَادَةِ عَلَيْكَ وَالزِّيادَةِ مِنْكَ

wa faw-zahum bil-wifaadati a'lay-ka waz-zeeaadati mink

39their triumph through reaching You, and their increase on account of You,

فَقُلْتَ تَبَارَكَ اسْمُكَ وَتَعَالَيْتَ:

faqul-ta tabaaraka as-muka wa taa'alay-ta:

40for You hast said (blessed is Your Name and high art You exalted),

(مَنْ جَاءَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ فَلَهُ عَشْرُ أَمْثَالِهَا

(man jaaa-a bil-h'asanati falahoo a'sh-ru am-thaalihaa

41"Whoso brings a good deed shall have ten the like of it,

وَمَنْ جَاءَ بِالسَّيِّئَةِ فَلاَ يُجْزى إلاّ مِثْلَهَا)

waman jaaa-a bis-say-yi-ati falaa yuj-zaaa il-laa mith-lahaa)

42and whoso brings an evil deed shall only be recompensed the like of it" (6:160).

وَقُلْتَ: (مَثَلُ الَّذِينَ يُنْفِقُونَ أَمْوَالَهُمْ فِي سَبِيلِ الله كَمَثَلِ حَبَّة

wa qul-t: (mathalul-lad'eena yunfiqoona am-waalahum fee sabeelil-laahee kamathali h'ab-batin

43You hast said, "The likeness of those who expend their wealth in the way of God is as the likeness of a grain of corn

أَنْبَتَتْ سَبْعَ سَنَابِلَ فِي كُلِّ سُنْبُلَة مَائَةُ حَبَّة

ambatat sab-a' sanaabila fee kul-li sumbulatim-mia-atu h'ab-bati

44that sprouts seven ears, in every ear a hundred grains;

وَالله يُضَاعِفُ لِمَنْ يَشَاءُ)

wal-laahoo yuz'aai'fu limay-yashaaa-u)

45so God multiplies unto whom He wills" (2:261).

وَقُلْتَ: (مَنْ ذَا الَّذِيْ يُقْرِضُ الله قَرْضاً حَسَنَاً

waqul-ta: (man d'aal-lad'ee yuq-riz'ul-laaha qar-z'an h'asanana

46You hast said, "Who is he that will lend to God a good loan,

فَيُضَاعِفَهُ لَهُ أضْعَافاً كَثِيرَةً)

fayuz'aai'fahoo lahooo az'-a'afana katheeratah)

47and He will multiply it for him manifold" (2:245)?

وَمَا أَنْزَلْتَ مِنْ نَظَائِرِهِنَّ فِي الْقُرْآنِ مِنْ تَضَاعِيفِ الْحَسَنَاتِ،

wa maaa anzal-ta min naz'aaa-irihin-na fil-qur-aaani min taz'aae'efil-h'asanaat

48And You hast sent down in the Qur'an similar verses on the multiplying of good deeds.

وَأَنْتَ الَّذِي دَلَلْتَهُمْ بِقَوْلِكَ مِنْ غَيْبِكَ وَتَرْغِيْبِكَ

wa antal-lad'ee dalal-tahum biqaw-lika min ghay-bika wa tar-gheebika

49It is You who hast pointed them through Your speech from Your Unseen and Your encouragement

الَّذِي فِيهِ حَظُّهُمْ عَلَى مَا لَوْ سَتَرْتَهُ عَنْهُمْ

lad'ee feehee h'az'-z'uhum a'laa maa law satar-tahoo a'n-hum

50in which lies their good fortune toward that which - hadst You covered it from them

لَمْ تُدْرِكْهُ أَبْصَارُهُمْ وَلَمْ تَعِـهِ أَسْمَاعُهُمْ

lam tud-rik-hooo ab-s'aaruhum- wa lam tai'heee as-maau'hum

51their eyes would not have perceived, their ears would not have heard,

وَلَمْ تَلْحَقْـهُ أَوْهَامُهُمْ

wa lam tal-h'aq-hooo aw-haamuhum-

52and their imaginations would not have grasped,

فَقُلْتَ: (اذْكُرُونِي أَذْكُرْكُمْ وَاشْكُرُوا لِيْ وَلا تَكْفُرُونِ)

faqul-ta: (ud'-kurooneee ad'-kur-kum- wa ash-kuroo lee wa laa tak-furoon)

53for You hast said, "Remember Me and I will remember you be thankful to Me, and be you not thankless towards Me" (2:152)!

وَقُلْتَ: (لَئِنْ شَكَـرْتُمْ لازِيدَنَّكمْ

waqul-ta: (la-in shakar-tum laazeedan-nakum

54You hast said, "If you are thankful, surely I will increase you,

وَلَئِنْ كَفَـرْتُمْ إنَّ عَذابِيْ لَشَدِيدٌ)

wala-in kafar-tum in-na a'd'aabee lashadeed)

55but if you are thankless, My chastisement is surely terrible" (14:7);

وَقُلْتَ : (ادْعُونِيْ أَسْتَجِبْ لَكُمْ

wa qul-ta: (ud-u'wneee as-tajib lakum

56And You hast said, "Supplicate Me and I will respond to you,

إنَّ الَّذِينَ يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ عَنْ عِبَادَتِي

in-nal-lad'eena yas-tak-biroona a'n i'baadatee

57surely those who wax too proud to worship Me

سَيَدْخُلُونَ جَهَنَّمَ دَاخِرِينَ)

sayad-khuloona jahan-nama daakhireen)

58shall enter Gehenna utterly abject" (40:60).

فَسَمَّيْتَ دُعَاءَكَ عِبَادَةً، وَتَرْكَهُ اسْتِكْبَاراً،

fasam-may-ta dua'aa-aka i'baadah wa tar-kahoo as-tik-baaraa

59Hence You hast named supplicating You 'worship' and refraining from it 'waxing proud',

وَتَوَعَّدْتَ عَلَى تَرْكِهِ دُخُولَ جَهَنَّمَ دَاخِرِينَ،

wa tawaa'-a't-ta a'laa tar-kihee dukhoola jahan-nama daakhireen

60and You hast threatened that the refraining from it would yield entrance into Gehenna in utter abjection.

فَذَكَرُوكَ بِمَنِّكَ وَشَكَرُوكَ بِفَضْلِكَ،

fad'akarooka biman-nik wa shakarooka bifaz'-lik

61So they remember You for Your kindness, they thank You for Your bounty,

وَدَعَوْكَ بِأَمْرِكَ،

wa daa'w-ka bi m-rik

62they supplicate You by Your command,

وَتَصَدَّقُوا لَكَ طَلَباً لِمَزِيدِكَ،

wa tas'ad-daqoo laka t'alabal-limazeedik

63and they donate for You in order to seek Your increase;

وَفِيهَا كَانَتْ نَجَاتُهُمْ مِنْ غَضَبِكَ،

wa feehaa kaanat najaatuhum min ghaz'abik

64in all this lies their deliverance from Your wrath

وَفَوْزُهُمْ بِرِضَاكَ،

wa faw-zuhum biriz'aak

65and their triumph through Your good pleasure.

وَلَوْ دَلَّ مَخْلُوقٌ مَخْلُوقاً مِنْ نَفْسِهِ

wa law dal-la makh-looqum-makh-looqam-min-naf-sihee

66Were any creature himself to direct another creature

عَلَى مِثْلِ الَّذِيْ دَلَلْتَ عَلَيْهِ عِبَادَكَ مِنْكَ

a'laa mith-lil-lad'ee dalal-ta a'lay-hee i'baadaka minka

67to the like of that to which You Yourself hast directed Your servants,

كَانَ مَوْصُوْفَاً بالإحْسَان

kaana maw-s'oofam-bil-ih'-saan

68he would be described by beneficence,

وَمَنْعُوتاً بِالامْتِثَال ومحمُوداً بكلِّ لِسَان،

wa man-u'wtam-biiam-tinaan wa mah'-moodam-bikul-li lisaan

69qualified by kindness, and praised by every tongue.

فَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ مَا وُجِدَ فِي حَمْدِكَ مَذْهَبٌ،

falakal-h'am-du maa wujida fee h'am-dika mad'-hab

70So to You belongs praise as long as there is found a way to praise You

وَمَا بَقِيَ لِلْحَمْدِ لَفْظٌ تُحْمَدُ بِهِ وَمَعْنىً يَنْصَرفُ إلَيْهِ

wa maa baqee lil-h'am-di laf-z'un tuh'-madu bihee wa maa'-nana yans'arifu ilay-h

71and as long as there remains for praising words by which You may be praised and meanings which may be spent in praise!

يَـا مَنْ تَحَمَّدَ إلَى عِبَـادِهِ بِالإِحْسَـانِ وَالْفَضْل،

yaa man tah'am-mada ilaa i'baadihee bil-ih'-saani wal-faz'-li

72O He who shows Himself praiseworthy to His servants through beneficence and bounty,

وَغَمَرَهُمْ بِالْمَنِّ وَالطَّوْلِ،

wa ghamarahum bil-man-ni wat'-t'aw-l

73flooding them with kindness and graciousness!

maaa af-shaa feenaa nia'-mataka? wa as-bagha a'lay-naa min-nataka

74How much Your favour has been spread about among us, Your kindness lavished upon us,

وَأَخَصَّنَا بِبِرِّكَ

wa akhas'-s'anaa bibir-rika

75and Your goodness singled out for us!

هَدْيَتَنَا لِدِيْنِكَ الَّـذِي اصْطَفَيْتَ،

haday-tanaa lideenikal-lad'ee as'-t'afay-t

76You hast guided us to Your religion which You hast chosen,

77Your creed with which You art pleased,

wa sabeelikal-lad'ee sah-hal-t

78and Your path which You hast made smooth,

wa bas'-s'ar-tanaaz-zul-fata laday-ka wal-wus'oola ilaa karaamatik

79and You hast shown us proximity to You and arrival at Your generosity!

wa khas'aaa-is'i til-kal-furooz'i

81and the most special of those obligations

wa takhay-yar-tahoo min jameei'l-az-minati wad-duhoor

86the faith which You multiplied by means of it,

87the fasting which You obligated therein,

وَرَغَّبْتَ فِيهِ مِنَ القِيَامِ،

wa ragh-ghab-ta feehee minal-qeeaam

88the standing in prayer which You encouraged at its time,

وَأَجْلَلْتَ فِيهِ مِنْ لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ

wa aj-lal-ta feehee mil-lay-latil-qad-ri

89and the Night of Decree which You magnified therein,

90the night which is "better than a thousand months" (97:3).

92and through its excellence You hast chosen us to the exclusion of the people of the creeds.

93We fasted by Your command in its daylight,

وَقُمْنَا بِعَوْنِكَ لَيْلَهُ

94we stood in prayer with Your help in its night,

95presenting ourselves by its fasting and its standing to the mercy which You hast held up before us,

وَتَسَبَّبْنَا إلَيْـهِ مِنْ مَثُوبَتِكَ،

أللَّهُمَّ إنَّا نَتُوبُ إلَيْكَ فِي يَوْمِ فِطْرِنَا

al-laahum-ma in-naa natoobu ilay-ka fee yaw-mi fit'-rinaa

196O God, we repent to You in our day of fast-breaking,

الّذِي جَعَلْتَهُ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عِيداً وَسُـرُوراً.

lad'ee jaa'l-tahoo lil-moo-mineena e'edaw-wasurooraa

197which You hast appointed for the faithful a festival and a joy

وَلأِهْلِ مِلَّتِكَ مَجْمَعاً وَمُحْتشداً مِنْ كُلِّ ذَنْب أَذْنَبْنَاهُ،

wa liah-li mil-latika maj-maa'w-wamuh'-tashadaa min kul-li d'ambin ad'-nab-naah

198and for the people of Your creed a time of assembly and gathering, from every misdeed we did,

أَوْ سُوْء أَسْلَفْنَاهُ، أَوْ خَاطِرِ شَرٍّ أَضْمَرْنَاهُ،

aw sooo-in as-laf-naah aw khaat'iri shar-rin az'-mar-naah

199ill work we sent ahead, or evil thought we secretly conceived,

تَوْبَةَ مَنْ لاَ يَنْطَوِيْ عَلَى رُجُوع إلَى ذَنْب

taw-bata mal-laa yant'awee a'laa rujooi'n ilaa d'amb

200the repentance of one who does not harbour a return to sin

وَلا يَعُودُ بَعْدَهَا فِي خَطِيئَة،

wa laa yau'wdu baa'-dahaa fee khat'ee-ah

201and who afterwards will not go back to offense,

تَوْبَةً نَصوحاً خَلَصَتْ مِنَ الشَّكِّ وَالارْتِيَابِ،

taw-batan-nas'ooh'ana khalas'at minash-shak-ki walir-teeaab

202an unswerving repentance rid of doubt and wavering.

فَتَقَبَّلْهَا مِنَّا وَارْضَ عَنَّا وَثَبِّتنَا عَلَيْهَا.

fataqab-bal-haa min-naa war-z'a a'n-naa wa thab-bit-naa a'lay-haa

203So accept it from us, be pleased with us, and fix us within it!

أللَّهُمَّ ارْزُقْنَا خَوْفَ عِقَابِ الْوَعِيدِ،

al-laahum-ma ar-zuq-naa khaw-fa i'qaabil-wae'ed

204God, provide us with fear of the threatened punishment

وَشَوْقَ ثَوَابِ الْمَوْعُودِ حَتّى نَجِدَ لَذَّةَ مَا نَدْعُوكَ بِهِ،

wa shaw-qa thawaabil-maw-u'wd h'at-taa najid lad'-d'ata maa nad-u'wka bih

205and yearning for the promised reward, so that we may find the pleasure of that for which we supplicate You

وكَأْبَةَ مَا نَسْتَجِيْرُكَ مِنْهُ،

wa kaa-bata maa nas-tajeeruka min-h

206and the sorrow of that from which we seek sanctuary in You!

وَاجْعَلْنَا عِنْدَكَ مِنَ التَّوَّابِيْنَ الَّذِينَ أَوْجَبْتَ لَهُمْ مَحَبَّتَكَ،

waj-a'l-naa i'ndaka minat-taw-waabeenal-lad'eena aw-jab-ta lahum mah'ab-batak

207And place us with You among the repenters, those upon whom You hast made Your love obligatory

وَقَبِلْتَ مِنْهُمْ مُرَاجَعَةَ طَاعَتِكَ، يَا أَعْدَلَ الْعَادِلِينَ.

wa qabil-ta min-hum muraajaa'ta t'aaa'tik yaaa aa'-dalal-a'adileen

208and from whom You hast accepted the return to obeying You! O Most Just of the just!

أللَّهُمَّ تَجَاوَزْ عَنْ آبآئِنَا وَأُمَّهَاتِنَا وَأَهْلِ دِيْنِنَا جَمِيعاً

al-laahum-ma tajaawaz a'n aaabaaa-inaa wa um-mahaatinaa wa ah-li deeninaa jameea'

209O God, show forbearance toward our fathers and our mothers and all the people of our religion,

مَنْ سَلَفَ مِنْهُمْ وَمَنْ غَبَرَ إلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ.

man salafa min-hum waman ghabara ilaa yaw-mil-qeeaamah

wa s'al-li a'lay-hee wa aaalihee kamaa s'al-lay-ta a'laa i'baadikas'-s'aalih'een

215bless him and his Household, as You hast blessed Your righteous servants

وَأَفْضَلَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ يَا رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ،

wa af-z'al min d'alika yaa rab-bal-a'alameena

216- and better than that, O Lord of the worlds!

صَلاَةً تَبْلُغُنَا بَرَكَتُهَا، وَيَنَالُنَا نَفْعُهَا،

s'alaatan tab-lughunaa barakatuhaa wa yanaalunaa naf-u'haa

217a blessing whose benediction will reach us, whose benefit will attain to us,

وَيُسْتَجَابُ لَهَا دُعَاؤُنَا،

wa yus-tajaabu lahaa dua'aaw-unaa

218and through which our supplication may be granted!

إنَّكَ أكْرَمُ مَنْ رُغِبَ إلَيْهِ

in-naka ak-ramu mar-rughiba ilay-h

219You art the most generous of those who are beseeched,

وَأكْفَى مَنْ تُوُكِّلَ عَلَيْهِ

wa ak-faa man took-kila a'lay-h

220the most sufficient of those in whom confidence is had,

وَأَعْطَى مَنْ سُئِلَ مِنْ فَضْلِهِ،

221the most bestowing of those from whom bounty is asked,

وَأَنْتَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْء قَدِيرٌ.

wa anta a'laa kul-li shay-in qadeer

You art powerful over everything!

اللّهُمّ لا تَجْعَلْهُ آخِرَ العَهْدِ من صِيَامِي لِشَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ،

allahumma la taj`alhu akhira al`ahdi mn siyamy lishahri ramazana

O Allah: (please) do not decide my observance of fasting in this month of Ramazan to be the last of my(life's) observance of fasting.

وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ أَنْ يَطْلُعَ فَجْرُ هذِهِ اللّيْلَةِ إِلاَّ وَقَدْ غَفَرْتَ لِي

wa a`udhu bika an yatlu`a fajru hadhihi allaylati illa wa qad ghafarta le

I take refuge with Thee lest the dawn of this night breaks forth without me having been positively forgiven.

اللَّهُمَّ لا تَجْعَلُهُ آخِرَ العَهْدِ مِنْ صِيامِنا إِيّاهُ فَإِنْ جَعَلْتَهُ فَاجْعَلْنِي مَرْحُوما وَلا تَجْعَلْنِي مَحْرُوماً

O Allah, do not make this the last of our covenant with fasting it, and if You do make it so, then make me one upon whom mercy is bestowed, and do not make me one who is deprived.

سُبْحانَ الله وَالحَمْدُ للهِ وَلا إِلهَ إِلاّ الله وَالله أَكْبَرُ.

Glory be to Allah, and praise belongs to Allah, and there is no god but Allah, and Allah is the Greatest.

أَسْتَغْفِرُ الله وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ

I seek the forgiveness of Allah and I repent to Him.

يا حَي يا قَيُّومُ ، يا ذا الجَلالِ وَالاِكْرامِ ، يا رَحْمنَ الدُّنْيا وَالآخرَةِ وَرَحِيمَهُما ، يا أرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ ، يا ألهَ الأوَّلِينَ وَالآخِرِينَ ، إِغْفِرْ لَنا ذُنُوبَنا ، وَتَقَبَّلْ مِنّا صَلاتَنا وَصِيامَنا وَقِيامَنا.

O Ever-Living, O Self-Subsisting, O Possessor of majesty and honor, O Most Merciful of this world and the Hereafter and their Compassionate Lord, O Most Merciful of the merciful, O God of the first ones and the last ones, forgive us our sins, and accept from us our prayers, our fasting, and our night worship.

إِغْفِرْ لَنا ذُنُوبَنا إلى آخر الدُّعاء : إِغْفِرْ لِي ذُنُوبِي وَتَقَبَّلْ صَوْمِي وَصَلاتِي وَقِيامِي

Forgive us our sins -- to the end of the supplication: Forgive me my sins and accept my fasting, my prayer, and my night worship.
