أَسْأَلُكَ بِكَ يَا اللَّهُ أَلَّا تُشَوِّهَ خَلْقِي بِالنَّارِ فَإِنِّي ضَعِيفٌ مِسْكِينٌ مَهِينٌ وَ آتِنِي فِي الدُّنْيا حَسَنَةً وَ فِي الْآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَ قِنا بِرَحْمَتِكَ عَذابَ النَّارِ

قُلِ ادْعُوا اللَّهَ أَوِ ادْعُوا الرَّحْمنَ أَيًّا ما تَدْعُوا فَلَهُ الْأَسْماءُ الْحُسْنى وَ لا تَجْهَرْ بِصَلاتِكَ وَ لا تُخافِتْ بِها وَ ابْتَغِ بَيْنَ ذلِكَ سَبِيلًا
وَ قُلِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي لَمْ يَتَّخِذْ وَلَداً وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ شَرِيكٌ فِي الْمُلْكِ وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ وَلِيٌّ مِنَ الذُّلِّ وَ كَبِّرْهُ تَكْبِيراً
“Say: “Call upon Allah, or call upon Rahman: by whatever name ye call upon Him, (it is well): for to Him belong the Most Beautiful Names. Neither speak Your Prayer aloud, nor speak it in a low tone, but seek a middle course between.” “Praise be to God who begets no son, and has no partner in (His) dominion: Nor (needs) He any to protect Him from humiliation: yea, magnify Him for His greatness and glory!”
Then go on and say the following,
اللَّهُمَّ هَبْنِي [هب لي] بِكَرَامَتِكَ وَ أَتِمَّ عَلَيَّ نِعْمَتَكَ وَ أَلْبِسْنِي عَفْوَكَ وَ عَافِيَتَكَ وَ أَمْنَكَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ “O‟ my God!
