Du’as

When Muslims start something, they should say:

Bis-millaahir-Rahmani-r-Rahim
Translation: In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful, Most Kind.

بِسْمِ اَللّٰهِ اَلرَّحْمٰنِ اَلرَّحِيم

‘As-salaamu alai-kum
Translation: Peace be with you.

اَلسَّلَامًُ عَلَيْكُمْ

Wa-alai-kumu-s-salaamu

وَ عَلَيْكُمُ السَّلَامُ

‘Al-hamdu li-Llaahi-l-Ladhi ‘Ahyaa-naa ba’da maa amaatana wa- ilaihi-n-nushur
Translation: praise be to Allah, He Who revived us to life after giving us death, and unto Him we shall return.

اَلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَحْيَانَا بَعْدَ مَا أَمَاتَنَا وَ إِلَيْهِ النُّشُور

‘Asbah-naa wa ‘asbaha-l mulku li-Llaahi Rabbi-l-‘Aalamin
Translation: we enter upon the morning, and so does the creation of Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.

أَصْبَحْنَا وَ أَصْبَحَ الْمُلْكُ لِلّٰهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ

Bis-millahi. Allahumma inni ‘a’udhu bi-ka minal-khubuthi wa-l-khabaa’ithi
Translation: In the name of Allah. O Allah! I seek refuge in you from the foul male and female devils.

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ. اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُبِكَ مِنَ الْخُبُثِ وَ الْخَبَاءِثِ

Ghufraana-ka, Al-hamdu li-Llaahi-l-Ladhi Adhaba anni-l-Adhaa wa-afaani
Translation: Your pardon O Allah! Praise be to Allah Who caused harm to go away and gave me relief.

غُفْرَانَكَ، اَلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَذْهَبَ عَنِّي الأَذَىٰ وَعَافَانِي

Allahumma iftah li abwaaba Rahmati-ka
O Allah! Open for me doors of Your Mercy.

اللَّهُمَّ افْتَحْ لِي أَبْوابَ رَحْمَتِكَ

Bismillah, tawakkaltu ala Allahi, wa la hawla wa la quwwata illa billah
In the Name of Allah, I rely on Allah, and there is no might or power except that (allowed) by Allah.

بِسْمِ اللهِ، تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَىٰ اللهِ، وَ لَا حَولَ وَ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللهِ

As’alu-Llaha-l- Azima Rabba-l-Arshi un yushfik
I ask Allah, the Al-Mighty, Lord of the Throne, to cure you.
