دعاء الصباح
بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ : اَللّهُمَّ يا مَنْ دَلَعَ لِسَانَ الصَّبَاحِ بِنُطْقِ تَبَلُّجِهِ، وَسَرَّحَ قِطَعَ اللَّيْلِ الْمُظْلِمِ بِغَيَاهِبِ تَلَجْلُجِهِ، وَأَتْقَنَ صُنْعَ الْفَلَكِ الدَّوَّارِ فِي مَقَادِيرِ تَبَرُّجِهِ، وَشَعْشَعَ ضِيَاءَ الشَّمْسِ بِنُورِ تَأَجُّجِهِ، يَا مَنْ دَلَّ عَلَى ذَاتِهِ بِذَاتِهِ، وَتَنَزَّهَ عَنْ مُجَانَسَةِ مَخْلُوقَاتِهِ، وَجَلَّ عَنْ مُلاءَمَةِ كَيْفِيَّاتِهِ . يَا مَنْ قَرُبَ مِنْ خَطَرَاتِ الظُّنُونِ، وَبَعُدَ عَنْ لَحَظَاتِ الْعُيُونِ، وَعَلِمَ بِمَا كَانَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَكُونَ، يَا مَنْ أَرْقَدَنِي فِي مِهَادِ أَمْنِهِ وَأَمَانِهِ، وَأَيْقَظَنِي إِلَى مَا مَنَحَنِي بِهِ مِنْ مِنَنِهِ وَإِحْسَانِهِ، وَكَفَّ أَكُفَّ السُّوءِ عَنِّي بِيَدِهِ وَسُلْطَانِهِ، صَلِّ اَللَّهُمَّ عَلَى الدَّلِيلِ إِلَيْكَ فِي اللَّيْلِ الأَلْيَلِ، وَالْمَاسِكِ مِنْ أَسْبَابِكَ بِحَبْلِ الشَّرَفِ الأَطْوَلِ، والنَّاصِعِ الْحَسَبِ فِي ذِرْوَةِ الْكَاهِلِ الأَعْبَلِ، وَالثَّابِتِ الْقَدَمِ عَلَى زَحَالِيفِهَا فِي الزَّمَنِ الأَوَّلِ، وَعَلَى آلِهِ الأَخْيَارِ الْمُصْطَفَيْنَ الأَبْرَارِ، وَافْتَحِ اللَّهُمَّ لَنَا مَصَارِيعَ الصَّبَاحِ بِمَفَاتِيحِ الرَّحْمَةِ وَالْفَلاحِ، وَأَلْبِسْنِي اللَّهُمَّ مِنْ أَفْضَلِ خِلَعِ الْهِدَايَةِ وَالصَّلاحِ، وَأَغْرِسِ اللَّهُمَّ بِعَظَمَتِكَ فِي شِرْبِ جَنَانِي يَنَابِيعَ الْخُشُوعِ، وَأَجْرِ اللَّهُمَّ لِهَيْبَتِكَ مِنْ آمَاقِي زَفَراتِ الدُّمُوعِ، وَأَدِّبِ اللَّهُمَّ نَزَقَ الْخُرْقِ مِنِّي بِأَزِمَّةِ الْقُنُوعِ، إِلَهِي إِن لََمْ تَبْتَدِئْنِي الرَّحْمَةُ مِنْكَ بِحُسْنِ التَّوْفِيقِ فَمَنِ السَّالِكُ بِي إِلَيْكَ فِي وَاضِحِ الطَّرِيقِ ؟ وَإِنْ أَسْلَمَتْنِي أَنَاتُكَ لِقَائِدِ الأَمَلِ وَالْمُنَى فَمَنِ الْمُقِيلُ عَثَرَاتِي مِنْ كَبَوَاتِ الْهَوَى ؟ وَإِنْ خَذَلَنِي نَصْرُكَ عِنْدَ مُحَارَبَةِ النَّفْسِ وَالشَّيْطَانِ، فَقَدْ وَكَلَنِي خِذْلانُكَ إِلَى حَيْثُ النَّصَبُ وَالْحِرْمَانُ
إِلَهِي أَتَرَانِي مَا أَتَيْتُكَ إِلَّا مِنْ حَيْثُ الآمَالُ، أَمْ عَلِقْتُ بَأَطْرَافِ حِبَالِكَ إِلَّا حِيْنَ بَاعَدَتْنِي ذُنُوبِي عَنْ دَارِ الْوِصَالِ، فَبِئْسَ الْمَطِيَّةُ الَّتِي امْتَطَتْ نَفْسِي مِنْ هَوَاهَا، فَوَاهاً لَهَا لِمَا سَوَّلَتْ لَهَا ظُنُونُها وَمُنَاهَا ! وَتَبًّا لَهَا لِجُرْأَتِهَا عَلَى سَيِّدِهَا وَمَوْلاهَا ! إِلَهِي قَرَعْتُ بَابَ رَحْمَتِكَ بِيَدِ رَجَائِي، وَهَرَبْتُ إِلَيْكَ لاجِئاً مِنْ فَرْطِ أَهْوَائِي، وَعَلَّقْتُ بِأَطْرَافِ حِبَالِكَ أَنَامِلَ وَلائِي، فَاصْفَحِ اللَّهُمَّ عمَّا كُنْتُ أَجْرَمْتُهُ مِنْ زَلَلِي وَخَطَائِي، وَأَقِلْنِي مِنْ صَرْعَةِ رِدَائِي، فَإِنَّكَ سَيِّدِي وَمَوْلاي وَمُعْتَمَدِي وَرَجَائِي، وَأَنْتَ غَايَةُ مَطْلُوبِي، وَمُنَايَ فِي مُنْقَلَبِي وَمَثْوَايَ
إِلَهِي كَيْفَ تَطْرُدُ مِسْكِيناً الْتَجَأَ إِلَيْكَ مِنَ الذُّنُوبِ هَارِباً ؟ أَمْ كَيْفَ تُخَيِّبُ مُسْتَرْشِداً قَصَدَ إِلَى جَنَابِكَ سَاعِياً ؟ أَمْ كَيْفَ تَرُدُّ ظَمْآناً وَرَدَ إِلَى حِيَاضِكَ شارِباً؟! كَلّا، وَحِياضُكَ مُتْرَعَةٌ فِي ضَنْكِ الْمُحُولِ، وَبَابُكَ مَفْتُوحٌ لِلطَّلَبِ وَالْوُغُولِ، وَأَنْتَ غَايَةُ الْمَسْؤُولِ ونِهَايَةُ الْمَأْمُولِ ! إِلَهِي هَذِهِ أَزِمَّةُ نَفْسِي عَقَلْتُهَا بِعِقَالِ مَشِيئَتِكَ، وَهذِهِ أَعْبَاءُ ذُنُوبِي دَرَأْتُهَا بِعَفْوِكَ وَرَحْمَتِكَ، وَهَذِهِ أَهْوَائِي الْمُضِلَّةُ وَكَلْتُهَا إِلَى جَنَابِ لُطْفِكَ وَرَأفَتِكَ فَاجْعَلِ اللَّهُمَّ صَبَاحِي هَذَا نَازِلاً عَلَيَّ بِضِيَاءِ الْهُدَى وَبِالسَّلامَةِ فِي الدِّينِ وَالدُّنْيَا، وَمَسَائِي جُنَّةً مِنْ كَيْدِ العِدَى وَوِقَايَةً مِنْ مُرْدِيَاتِ الْهَوَى، إِنَّكَ قَادِرٌ عَلَى مَا تَشَاءُ تُؤْتِي الْمُلْكَ مَنْ تَشَاءُ، وَتَنْزِعُ الْمُلْكَ مِمَّنْ تَشَاءُ، وَتُعِزُّ مَنْ تَشَاءُ وَتُذِلُّ مَنْ تَشَاءُ، بِيَدِكَ الْخَيْرُ إِنَّكَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ، تُولِجُ اللَّيْلَ فِي النَّهَارِ وَتُولِجُ النَّهَارَ فِي اللَّيْلِ، وَتُخْرِجُ الْحَيَّ مِنَ الْمَيِّتِ، وَتُخْرِجُ الْمَيِّتَ مِنَ الْحَيِّ، وَتَرْزُقُ مَنْ تَشَاءُ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ، لا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ سُبْحَانَكَ اللَّهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ،
مَنْ ذا يَعْرِفُ قَدْرَكَ فَلا يَخَافُكَ، وَمَنْ ذَا يَعْلَمُ مَا أَنْتَ فَلا يَهَابُكَ . أَلَّفْتَ بِقُدْرَتِكَ الْفِرَقَ، وَفَلَقْتَ بِلُطْفِكَ الْفَلَقَ، وَأَنَرْتَ بِكَرَمِكَ دَيَاجِيَ الْغَسَقِ، وَأَنْهَرْتَ الْمِيَاهَ مِنَ الصُّمِّ الصَّيَاخِيدِ عَذْباً وَأُجَاجاً، وَأَنْزَلْتَ مِنَ الْمُعْصِرَاتِ مَاءً ثَجَّاجاً، وَجَعَلْتَ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ لِلْبَرِيَّةِ سِرَاجاً وَهَّاجاً، مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ تُمَارِسَ فِيمَا ابْتَدَأْتَ بِهِ لُغُوباً وَلا عِلاجاً، فَيَا مَنْ تَوَحَّدَ بِالْعِزِّ وَالْبَقَاءِ، وَقَهَرَ عِبَادَهُ بِالْمَوْتِ وَالْفَنَاءِ، صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِهِ الأَتْقِيَاءِ، وَاسْمَعْ نِدَائِي، وَاسْتَجِبْ دُعَائِي، وَحَقِّقْ بِفَضْلِكَ أَمَلِي وَرَجَائِي، يا خَيْرَ مَنْ دُعِيَ لِكَشْفِ الضُّرِ، وَالْمَأْمُولَِ لِكُلِّ عُسْرٍ وَيُسْرٍ، بِكَ أَنْزَلْتُ حَاجَتِي فَلا تَرُدَّنِي مِنْ سَنِيِّ مَوَاهِبِكَ خَائِباً، يَا كَرِيمُ يَا كَرِيمُ يَا كَرِيمُ، بِرَحْمَتِكَ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ، وَصَلَّى اللهُ عَلَى خَيْرِ خَلْقِهِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِهِ أَجْمَعِينَ
ثُمَّ اسْجُدْ وَقُلْ : إِلَهِي قَلْبِي مَحْجُوبٌ وَنَفْسِي مَعْيُوبٌ، وَعَقْلِي مَغْلُوبٌ وَهُوَائِي غَالِبٌ، وَطَاعَتِي قَلِيلٌ وَمَعْصِيَتِي كَثِيرٌ، وَلِسَانِي مُقِرُّ بِالذُّنُوبِ، فَكَيْفَ حِيلَتِي يَا سَتَّارَ الْعُيُوبِ، وَيَا عَلّامَ الْغُيُوبِ، وَيَا كَاشِفَ الْكُرُوبِ، اِغْفِرْ ذُنُوبِي كُلَّهَا بِحُرْمَةِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، يَا غَفَّارُ يَا غَفَّارُ يَا غَفَّارُ، بِرَحْمَتِكَ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ .
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
O Allah, O He who has caused the tongue of the morning to articulate with the brightness of its radiance, And who has set in motion the fragments of the dark night in the depths of its wavering shadows,
And who has perfected the craftsmanship of the revolving celestial sphere in the precise measurements of its adornment, And who has diffused the light of the sun with the glow of its blazing flame!
O He who has pointed to His Essence through His Essence, And who is exalted beyond resembling His creation, And who is too sublime to conform to the attributes of His beings!
O He who is near to the whispers of thoughts, Yet far beyond the perceptions of sight, And who knows all that was before it came into existence!
O He who laid me to rest in the cradle of His security and protection, And awakened me to the blessings He has bestowed upon me from His favors and kindness, And who has held back the hands of harm from me through His power and dominion!
Send blessings, O Allah, upon the guide who points to You in the deepest darkness of night, The one who clings to the longest cord of nobleness of Your means, The one of pure lineage, at the peak of the most noble ancestry, The one whose steps remained firm on the slippery paths in the earliest of times, And upon his purified and chosen progeny, the righteous and virtuous.
O Allah, open for us the gates of the morning with the keys of mercy and success, And clothe me, O Allah, with the finest garments of guidance and righteousness.
O Allah, plant within the depths of my heart the springs of humility through Your greatness, O Allah, let the fear of Your majesty cause tears to flow from my eyes. O Allah, discipline the recklessness of my folly with the reins of contentment.
O my God! If Your mercy does not initiate its grace upon me with good guidance, Then who will lead me towards You upon the clear path?
And if Your forbearance abandons me to the illusions of hope and desire, Then who will rescue me from the pitfalls of my inclinations?
And if Your aid forsakes me in my battle against my own self and against Satan, Then surely, Your abandonment has left me to toil in hardship and deprivation.
O my God! Do You see that I have come to You only because of my hopes? Or have I clung to the ends of Your ropes only after my sins distanced me from the abode of nearness?
What an ill mount my soul has taken in its desires! Woe to it for what its illusions and aspirations have deceived it into! And perished be its audacity against its Master and Lord!
O my God! I have knocked on the door of Your mercy with the hand of my hope, And I have fled towards You, seeking refuge from the excess of my desires. I have grasped onto the edges of Your ropes with the fingertips of my devotion.
So, pardon, O Allah, what I have committed of errors and sins, And lift me from the downfall of my disgrace.
For You are my Master, my Lord, my reliance, and my hope. And You are the ultimate goal of my seeking, And the fulfillment of my longing in my return and my eternal abode.
O my God! How could You drive away a destitute one who has sought refuge in You, fleeing from sins? Or how could You disappoint one who seeks guidance and has come striving toward Your presence? Or how could You turn away a thirsty soul who has come to drink from the fountains of Your mercy?!
Never! For Your fountains are overflowing, even in the most barren droughts, And Your door remains open to all who seek and enter, And You are the ultimate One who is asked, the final hope of all expectations!
O my God! Here is the bridle of my soul—I have bound it with the reins of Your will, And here are the burdens of my sins—I have cast them upon the expanse of Your forgiveness and mercy, And here are my misguided desires—I have entrusted them to the sanctuary of Your kindness and compassion.
So, O Allah, let this morning descend upon me with the light of guidance, And with well-being in both my religion and my worldly affairs. And make my evening a shield against the schemes of enemies And a protection from the perils of destructive desires.
Verily, You have power over all things. You grant sovereignty to whom You will, and You take away sovereignty from whom You will. You honor whom You will, and You abase whom You will. In Your hand is all goodness, and You have power over everything.
You cause the night to merge into the day, and You cause the day to merge into the night. You bring forth the living from the dead, and You bring forth the dead from the living. And You provide for whom You will without measure.
There is no god but You! Glory be to You, O Allah, and all praise is Yours!
Who is it that recognizes Your true worth and does not fear You? And who is it that knows what You are and does not stand in awe of You?
By Your power, You have united the scattered, By Your kindness, You have split apart the dawn, By Your generosity, You have illuminated the darkness of the night, And You have caused water to flow from solid and unyielding rocks, both sweet and bitter. You have sent down from the clouds an abundant and pouring rain, And You have made the sun and the moon a blazing lamp for Your creation, Without any toil or exertion in what You originated.
O You who are unique in might and everlasting existence, Who has subdued His servants with death and annihilation, Send blessings upon Muhammad and his purified, righteous progeny.
Hear my call, answer my supplication, Fulfill my hopes and aspirations by Your grace.
O You who are the best One to be called upon to remove affliction, The One hoped for in every hardship and ease,
To You alone have I submitted my need, So do not turn me away from the radiance of Your generous gifts disappointed.
O Most Generous! O Most Generous! O Most Generous! By Your mercy, O Most Merciful of the merciful!
And may Allah send His blessings upon His best creation, Muhammad and all his purified progeny.
Then, prostrate and say:
O my God! My heart is veiled,
My soul is flawed, My intellect is overpowered, And my desires have the upper hand.
My obedience is little, And my disobedience is abundant. My tongue confesses my sins.
So what is my recourse, O Concealer of faults, O Knower of the unseen, O Reliever of distress?
Forgive all my sins, For the sake of Muhammad and the progeny of Muhammad.
O Most Forgiving! O Most Forgiving! O Most Forgiving! By Your mercy, O Most Merciful of the merciful!
