21st Night of ramadan

أَعُوذُ بِجَلالِ وَجْهِكَ الكَرِيمِ أَنْ يَنْقَضِيَ عَنِّي شَهْرُ رَمَضانَ أَوْ يَطْلُعَ الفَجْرُ مِنْ لَيْلَتِي هذِهِ وَلَكَ قِبَلِي ذَنْبٌ أَوْ تَبِعَةٌ تُعَذِّبُنِي عَلَيْهِ

اللَّهُمَّ أَدِّ عَنّا حَقَّ ما مَضى مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضانَ وَاغْفِرْ لَنا تَقْصِيرَنا فِيْهِ ، وَتَسَلَّمْهُ مِنّا مَقْبُولا ، وَلا تُؤاخِذْنا بِإِسْرافِنا عَلى أَنْفُسِنا ، وَاجْعَلْنا مِنَ المَرْحُومِينَ وَلا تَجْعَلْنا مِنَ المَحْرُومِينَ.

اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ قُلْتَ فِي كِتابِكَ المُنْزَلِ : (شَهْرُ رَمَضانَ الَّذِي اُنْزِلَ فِيْهِ القُرْآنَ هُدىً لِلْنَّاسِ وَبَيِّناتٍ مِنَ الهُدى وَالفُرْقانِ) فَعَظَّمْتَ حُرْمَةَ شَهْرِ رَمَضانَ بِما أَنْزَلْتَ فِيْهِ مِنَ القُرْآنِ وَخَصَصْتَهُ بِلَيْلَةِ القَدْرِ وَجَعَلْتَها خَيْراً مِنْ أَلْف شَهْرٍ. اللَّهُمَّ وَهذِهِ أَيامُ شَهْرِ رَمَضانَ قَدْ انْقَضَتْ وَلَيالِيهِ قَدْ تَصَرَّمَتْ ، وَقَدْ صِرْتُ يا إِلهِي مِنْهُ إِلى ماأَنْتَ أَعْلَمُ بِهِ مِنِّي وَأَحْصى لِعَدَدِهِ مِنَ الخَلْقِ أَجْمَعِينَ فأَسْأَلُكَ بما سَأَلَكَ بِهِ مَلائِكَتُكَ المُقَرَّبُونَ ، وَأَنْبِياؤُكَ المُرْسَلُونَ ، وَعِبادُكَ الصّالِحُونَ أَنْ تُصَلِّي عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَأَن تَفُكَّ رَقَبَتِي مِنَ النّارِ ، وَتُدْخِلَنِي الجَنَّةَ بِرَحْمَتِكَ ، وَأَنْ تَتَفَضَّلَ عَلَيَّ بِعَفْوِكَ وَكَرَمِكَ ، وَتَتَقَبَّلَ تَقَرُّبِي ، وَتَسْتَجِيبَ دُعائي ، وَتَمُنَّ عَلَيَّ بِالاَمْنِ يَوْمَ الخَوْفِ مِنْ كُلِّ هَوْلٍ أَعْدَدْتَهُ لِيَوْمِ القِيّامَةِ. إِلْهِي وَأَعُوذُ بِوَجْهِكَ الكَرِيمِ ، وَبِجَلالِكَ العَظِيمِ أَنْ يَنْقَضِيَ أَيّامُ شَهْرِ رَمَضانَ وَليالِيهِ وَلَكَ قِبَلِي تَبِعَةٌ أوْ ذَنْبٌ تُؤأَخِذُنِي بِهِ ، أوْ خَطِيئَةٌ تُرِيدُ أَنْ تَقْتَصَّها مِنِّي لَمْ تَغْفِرْها لِي سَيِّدِي سَيِّدِي سَيِّدِي أَسْأَلُكَ يا لا إِلهَ إِلاّ أَنْتَ إِذْ لا إِلهَ إِلاّ أَنْتَ إِنْ كُنْتَ رَضِيْتَ عَنِّي فِي هذا الشَّهْرِ فَازْدَدْ عَنِّي رِضىً ، وَإِنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ رَضِيتَ عَنِّي فَمَنْ الانَ فَارْضَ عَنِّي يا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ ، يا الله يا أَحَدُ يا صَمَدُ يا مَنْ لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ كُفْوا أَحَدٌ.

يا مُلَيِّنَ الحَدِيدِ لِداوُدَ عليه‌السلام ، يا كاشِفَ الضُّرِّ وَالكُرَبِ العِظامِ عَنْ أَيّوبَ عليه‌السلام ، أَي مُفَرِّجَ هَمِّ يَعْقُوبَ عليه‌السلام ، أَيْ مُنَفِّسَ غَمِّ يُوسُفَ عليه‌السلام ، صَلِّ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ كَما أَنْتَ أَهْلُهُ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَيْهِمْ أَجْمَعِينَ ، وَافْعَلْ بِي ما أَنْتَ أَهْلُهُ ، وَلا تَفْعَلْ بِي ما أَنا أَهْلُهُ

وَأَنْ تَمُنَّ عَلَيَّ بِفَكَاكِ رَقَبَتي مِنَ النَّارِ،

wa an tamunna `alayya bifakaki raqabaty mina alnnari,

And to confer upon me with releasing me from Hellfire,

يا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمينَ.

ya arhama alrrahimina.

O the most Merciful of all those who show mercy.

وَأَسْأَلُكَ بِجَمِيْعِ ما سَأَلْتُكَ وَمَا لَمْ أَسْأَلْكَ مِنْ عَظِيْمِ جَلَالِكَ

wa as-aluka bijami`i ma saaltuka wa ma lam asalka min `azimi jalalika,

And I beseech You to settle for me all that which I asked from You and also all that which I did not ask from You; that which belongs to Your splendid majesty,

مَا لَوْ عَلِمْتُهُ لَسَأَلْتُكَ بِهِ،

ma law `alimtuhu lasaltuka bihi,

That which I would ask from You if I knew it,

أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَأَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ،

an tusalliya `ala muhammadin wa ahli baytihi,

(and I beseech You to) send blessings upon Muhammad and his Household,

وَأَنْ تَأْذَنَ لِفَرَجِ مَنْ بِفَرَجِهِ فَرَجُ أَوْلِيائِكَ وَأَصْفِيائِكَ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ،

wa an tadhana lifaraji man bifarajihi faraju awliya’ika wasfiiaiika min khalqika,

And to permit the Relief of him whose relief achieves the relief of Your intimate servants and Your select ones from among Your created beings,

وَبِهِ تُبِيْدُ الظَّالِمِيْنَ وَتُهْلِكُهُمْ،

wa bihi tubidu alzzalimina wa tuhlikuhum,

And through whom You will terminate and eradicate the oppressors.

عَجِّلْ ذَلِكَ يا رَبَّ الْعَالَمينَ،

`ajjil dhalika ya rabba al`alamina,

(Please) hasten that, O the Lord of the worlds.

وَأَعْطِنِي سُؤْلِي يَا ذَا ٱلْجَلَالِ وَالْإِكْرامِ

wa a`tiny su´ly ya dhaljalali walikrami

And (please) grant me my requests, O the Lord of majesty and honor,

في جَميعِ ما أَسَأَلْتُكَ لِعاجِلِ الدُّنْيا وَآجِلِ الْآخِرَةِ.

fy jami`i ma saltuka li`ajili alddunia wa ajili alakhirati.

As regarding all that which I have asked You from my needs for this worldly life and the Hereafter.

يَا مَنْ هُوَ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيَّ مِنْ حَبْلِ الْوَرِيدِ،

ya man huwa aqrabu ilayya min habli aluariidi,

O He Who is nearer to me than my life-vein:

أَقِلْني عَثْرَتي

aqilny `athrati

(Please) overlook my slips,

وَأَقِلْنِي بِقَضَاءِ حَوَائِجِي،

wa aqilny biqadha‘i hawaiiji,

And revive me through settling my needs.

يَا خَالِقِي وَيَا رَازِقي وَيَا بَاعِثِي،

ya khaliqy wa ya raziqy wa ya ba`ithi,

O my Creator; O the Source of my sustenance; O my Resurrector;

وَيا مُحْيِي عِظَامِي وَهِيَ رَمِيْمٌ،

wa ya muhiy `izamy wa hiya ramimun,

O He Who shall give life to my bones when they are rotten:

صَلِّ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ

salli `ala muhammadin wa ali muhammadin

(Please do) bless Muhammad and the Household of Muhammad,

وَ ٱسْتَجِبْ لِي دُعَائِي يَا أَرْحَمَ الرّاحِمينَ.

wastajib ly du`aiy ya arhama alrrahimina.

And respond to my prayer; O the most Merciful of all those who show mercy.
