Ratib Al Haddad (After Magrib)

The (reading of) the Fatihah to the presence of the Prophet Muhammad, may the blessings and peace of Allãh be upon him: I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Satan

In the Name of Allāh, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
All Praise be to Alläh, Lord of the Universe; Most Compassionate, Most Merciful; Lord of the Day of Judgement
You alone do we worship, and to You alone do we turn for help
Guide us to the Straight Way
The Way of those on whom You have bestowed Your grace; not the way of those who have earned Your anger, nor of those who went astray
Amin

Allah! There is no god, but Him; the Ever-Living, the Self Subsisting, the Eternal One
Neither slumber nor sleep can overtake Him
To Him belongs whatsoever is in the Heavens and whatsoever is on the earth
Who is there that can intercede in His Presence, except by His Permission? He knows what will happen to them (His creatures) in this world, and what will happen to them in the Hereafter; nor shall they comprehend anything at all of His Knowledge except as He Wills
His Throne extends over the Heavens and the earth, and guarding and preserving it, does not exhaust Him, for He is the Exalted, the All-Mighty

The Messenger believes in what has been revealed to him from his Lord, and (so do) the believers
They all believe in His Angels, His Books and His Messengers
They say: "We do not differentiate between any of His Messengers
We hear and we obey
We ask You forgiveness our Lord, and to You will we all return
Alläh will not burden any soul with more than what it can bear
It has [the good] it has earned, and [the evil] it has incurred
Our Lord! Do not take us to task if we forget or make a mistake.
Our Lord, do not place on us a burden like that which you have placed on those before us
Our Lord, do not place on us a burden that we do not have the strength to bear
Pardon us, and grant us forgiveness; and have mercy on us
You are our Protector; so grant us victory over the disbelieving people

There is no god but Allāh alone, He has no partner, His is the kingdom and His is the praise, He gives life and He causes death, and He is capable of all things

Glory be to Allāh, and praise be to Him; Glory be to Allah, the Magnificent

Our Lord, forgive us and grant us repentance; indeed, You are the Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful

O Allah! Bestow blessings on Muhammad, O Allah!
Bestow blessings and peace on him

I seek refuge in the Perfect Words of Alläh from the evil that He has created

In the Name of Allāh, with Whose Name nothing can cause harm on earth and in the heaven, and He is the All-Hearing and All-Knowing

We are content with Alläh as Lord, with Isläm as religion, and with Muhammad as Prophet

In the Name of Allah, and all praise is for Alläh, both good and evil are by the will of Alläh

We believe in Allah and the Last Day (of Judgement), we turn to Allah in repentance, inwardly and outwardly

O Our Lord, pardon us and wipe out whatever (sins) we may have committed

O Lord of Sublimity and Generosity, let us die in the religion of Islam

O Most Powerful, O Invincible, protect us from the evil of the oppressors

May Allah remedy the affairs of the Muslims; may Allah turn away from them the evil of the harmful

O Most High, O Most Great, O All-Knowing, O Powerful One, O All-Hearing, O All-Seeing, O Gentle, O All-Aware!

O the Dispeller of anxiety, O the Remover of grief, O the One who is forgiving and merciful to His servant

I seek forgiveness from Allah, the Lord of all creation
I seek forgiveness from Alläh for all my mistakes

There is no god but Alläh

Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him, grant him peace, and honour, elevate, glorify and exalt him. May He be well-pleased with his purified household, his rightly guided companions, and those who follow them with excellence till the Day of Judgement

In the Name of Allah
the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
Say: He is Allah, the One and Only;
Allāh, the Eternal, Absolute; He was not born, nor does He give birth
And there is nothing like Him

In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
Say: I seek refuge with the Lord of the daybreak; From the mischief of created things; From the mischief of darkness as it becomes intense
From the mischief of those who practise secret arts; And from the mischief of the envious one as he practises envy

In the Name of Allãh, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
Say: I seek refuge with the Lord and Cherisher of mankind; The King (or Ruler) of mankind; The God (or Judge) of mankind; From the mischief of the whisperer (of evil), who withdraws (after his whisper); (The whisperer) who whispers into the hearts of mankind; From among jinn and men
