Al Qamah مروي عن الأئمة المعصومين عليهم السلام في كتب الأدعية والزيارات المعتبرة.
Al Qamah as recorded in authentic Shia supplication manuals and traditions of the Holy Infallibles ('a).
يَا اَللّٰهُ يَا اَللّٰهُ يَا اَللّٰهُ، يَا مُجِيْبَ دَعْوَةِ الْمُضْطَرِّيْنَ، يَا كَاشِفَ كُرَبِ الْمَكْرُوْبِيْنَ، يَا غِيَاثَ الْمُسْتَغِيْثِيْنَ، يَا صَرِيْخَ الْمُسْتَصْرِخِيْنَ
O Allah, O Allah, O Allah, O Responder of the supplication of the distressed, O Reliever of the afflictions of the distressed, O Helper of those who seek help, O Cry of those who implore.
وَ يَا مَنْ هُوَ اَقْرَبُ اِلَيَّ مِنْ حَبْلِ الْوَرِيْدِ، وَ يَا مَنْ يَحُوْلُ بَيْنَ الْمَرْءِ وَ قَلْبِهِ، وَ يَا مَنْ هُوَ بِالْمَنْظَرِ الْاَعْلٰى وَ بِالْاُفِقِ الْمُبِيْنِ
And O One Who is closer to me than my jugular vein, O One Who intervenes between a person and his heart, O One Who is in the highest sight and the clear horizon.
وَ يَا مَنْ هُوَ الرَّحْمٰنُ الرَّحِيْمُ عَلَى الْعَرْشِ اسْتَوٰى، وَ يَا مَنْ يَّعْلَمُ خَاۤئِنَةَ الْاَعْيُنِ وَ مَا تُخْفِي الصُّدُوْرُ، وَ يَا مَنْ لَّا يَخْفٰى عَلَيْهِ خَافِيَةٌ
O You Who is the Most Merciful, the Compassionate, established over the Throne, Who knows what the eyes conceal and what the hearts hide, and nothing is hidden from You.
يَا مُدْرِكَ كُلِّ فَوْتٍ، وَ يَا جَامِعَ كُلِّ شَمْلٍ، وَ يَا بَارِئَ النُّفُوْسِ بَعْدَ الْمَوْتِ، يَا مَنْ هُوَ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ فِي شَأْنٍ
O Acquirer of every loss, O Gatherer of all unity, O Creator of souls after death, O Who is engaged in affairs every day.
يَا قَاضِيَ الْحَاجَاتِ، يَا مُنَفِّسَ الْكُرُبَاتِ، يَا مُعْطِيَ السُّؤْلَاتِ، يَا وَلِيَّ الرَّغَبَاتِ، يَا كَافِيَ الْمُهِمَّاتِ، يَا مَنْ يَكْفِي مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ
O Fulfiller of needs, O Reliever of hardships, O Giver of requests, O Guardian of desires, O Sufficient for the important matters, O Who suffices for everything.
وَ لَا يَكْفِي مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ، أَسْأَلُكَ بِحَقِّ مُحَمَّدٍ خَاتَمِ النَّبِيِّيْنَ، وَ عَلِيٍّ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ
And nothing in the heavens and the earth can suffice without You; I ask You by the right of Muhammad, the Seal of the Prophets, and Ali, the Commander of the Faithful.
وَبِحَقِّ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ نَبِيِّكَ، وَ بِحَقِّ الْحَسَنِ وَ الْحُسَيْنِ، فَاِنِّي بِهِمْ اَتَوَجَّهُ اِلَيْكَ فِي مَقَامِيْ هٰذَا
And by the right of Fatimah, daughter of Your Prophet, and by the right of Hasan and Husayn; indeed I turn to You by their means in this my position.
وَبِهِمْ اَتَوَسَّلُ وَ بِهِمْ اَتَشَفَّعُ اِلَيْكَ، وَ بِحَقِّهِمْ اَسْاَلُكَ وَ اُقْسِمُ وَ اَعْزِمُ عَلَيْكَ
Through them I seek intercession and mediation with You, and by their right I ask, I swear, and I resolve upon You.
وَبِالشَّأْنِ الَّذِيْ لَهُمْ عِنْدَكَ، وَ بِالْقَدْرِ الَّذِيْ لَهُمْ عِنْدَكَ، وَ بِالَّذِيْ فَضَّلْتَهُمْ عَلَى الْعَالَمِيْنَ
And by the position they have with You, and by the measure You have granted them, and by what You have preferred them over all worlds.
وَبِاسْمِكَ الَّذِيْ جَعَلْتَهُ عِنْدَهُمْ، وَ بِهِ خَصَصْتَهُمْ دُوْنَ الْعَالَمِيْنَ
And by Your Name which You have placed with them, and by it You have singled them out from all worlds.
وَبِهِ اَبَنْتَهُمْ وَ اَبَنْتَ فَضْلَهُمْ مِنْ فَضْلِ الْعَالَمِيْنَ، حَتّٰى فَاقَ فَضْلُهُمْ فَضْلَ الْعَالَمِيْنَ جَمِيْعًا
And by it You have distinguished them and elevated their merit above all the worlds, until their merit surpasses all the worlds combined.
اَسْاَلُكَ اَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلٰى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَ اَنْ تَكْشِفَ عَنِّيْ غَمِّيْ وَ هَمِّيْ وَ كَرْبِيْ، وَ تَكْفِيَنِي الْمُهِمَّ مِنْ اُمُوْرِيْ
I ask You to send blessings upon Muhammad and his family, to remove from me my grief, my worry, and my distress, and to suffice me in the important matters of my affairs.
وَ تَقْضِيَ عَنِّيْ دَيْنِيْ، وَ تُجِيْرَنِيْ مِنَ الْفَقْرِ وَ تُجِيْرَنِيْ مِنَ الْفَاقَةِ، وَ تُغْنِيَنِيْ عَنِ الْمَسْاَلَةِ اِلَى الْمَخْلُوْقِيْنَ
And to settle my debts, to protect me from poverty and destitution, and to enrich me so I do not need to ask from others.
وَ تَكْفِيَنِيْ هَمَّ مَنْ اَخَافُ هَمَّهُ، وَ عُسْرَ مَنْ اَخَافُ عُسْرَهُ، وَ حُزُوْنَةَ مَنْ اَخَافُ حُزُوْنَتَهُ
And protect me from the worry of those whose worry I fear, from the hardship of those whose hardship I fear, and from the sorrow of those whose sorrow I fear.
وَ شَرَّ مَنْ اَخَافُ شَرَّهُ، وَ مَكْرَ مَنْ اَخَافُ مَكْرَهُ، وَ بَغْيَ مَنْ اَخَافُ بَغْيَهُ، وَ جَوْرَ مَنْ اَخَافُ جَوْرَهُ، وَ سُلْطَانَ مَنْ اَخَافُ سُلْطَانَهُ
And from the evil of those whose evil I fear, the scheming of those whose schemes I fear, the oppression of those whose oppression I fear, the tyranny of those whose tyranny I fear, and the authority of those whose authority I fear.
وَ كَيْدَ مَنْ اَخَافُ كَيْدَهُ، وَ مَقْدُرَةَ مَنْ اَخَافُ مَقْدُرَتَهُ عَلَيَّ، وَ تَرُدَّ عَنِّيْ كَيْدَ الْكَيَدَةِ، وَ مَكْرَ الْمَكَرَةِ
And the plotting of those whose plotting I fear, the power of those whose power I fear over me; repel from me the plots of the schemers and the tricks of the deceivers.
اَللّٰهُمَّ مَنْ اَرَادَنِيْ فَاَرِدْهُ، وَ مَنْ كَادَنِيْ فَكِدْهُ، وَ اصْرِفْ عَنِّيْ كَيْدَهُ وَ مَكْرَهُ وَ بَأْسَهُ وَ اَمَانِيَّهُ
O Allah, whoever intends harm to me, thwart him; and whoever schemes against me, foil him; and divert from me his plotting, trickery, strength, and desires.
وَ امْنَعْهُ عَنِّيْ كَيْفَ شِئْتَ وَ اَنَّى شِئْتَ، اَللّٰهُمَّ اشْغَلْهُ عَنِّيْ بِفَقْرٍ لَا تَجْبُرُهُ، وَ بِبَلَاۤءٍ لَا تَسْتُرُهُ
And prevent him from me as You will and wherever You will. O Allah, occupy him with poverty that cannot be mended, and with affliction that cannot be concealed.
وَ بِفَاقَةٍ لَا تَسُدُّهَا، وَ بِسُقْمٍ لَا تُعَافِيْهِ، وَ ذُلٍّ لَا تُعِزُّهُ، وَ بِمَسْكَنَةٍ لَا تَجْبُرُهَا
And with destitution that cannot be fulfilled, with sickness that cannot be healed, with humiliation that cannot be elevated, and with poverty that cannot be remedied.
اَللّٰهُمَّ اضْرِبْ بِالذُّلِّ نَصْبَ عَيْنَيْهِ، وَ اَدْخِلْ عَلَيْهِ الْفَقْرَ فِيْ مَنْزِلِهِ، وَ الْعِلَّةَ وَ السُّقْمَ فِيْ بَدَنِهِ
O Allah, strike him with humiliation before his eyes, place poverty in his dwelling, and sickness and disease in his body.
حَتّٰى تَشْغَلَهُ عَنِّيْ بِشُغْلٍ شَاغِلٍ لَا فَرَاغَ لَهُ، وَ اَنْسِهِ ذِكْرِيْ كَمَا اَنْسَيْتَهُ ذِكْرَكَ
Until You occupy him with such preoccupation that he has no respite, and make him forget my mention as You made him forget Your mention.
وَ خُذْ عَنِّيْ بِسَمْعِهِ وَ بَصَرِهِ وَ لِسَانِهِ وَ يَدِهِ وَ رِجْلِهِ وَ قَلْبِهِ وَ جَمِيْعِ جَوَارِحِهِ، وَ اَدْخِلْ عَلَيْهِ فِيْ جَمِيْعِ ذٰلِكَ السُّقْمَ
And seize from him his hearing, sight, tongue, hand, foot, heart, and all his faculties, and inflict upon him sickness in all of them.
وَ لَا تَشْفِهِ حَتّٰى تَجْعَلَ ذٰلِكَ لَهُ شُغْلًا شَاغِلًا بِهِ عَنِّي وَ عَنْ ذِكْرِي
And do not heal him until this becomes a preoccupation for him, occupying him away from me and my mention.
وَ اكْفِنِيْ يَا كَافِيَ مَا لَا يَكْفِيْ سِوَاكَ، فَاِنَّكَ الْكَافِيْ لَا كَافِيَ سِوَاكَ، وَ مُفَرِّجٌ لَا مُفَرِّجَ سِوَاكَ، وَ مُغِيْثٌ لَا مُغِيْثَ سِوَاكَ
Suffice me, O the Sufficient, with what none other can suffice; indeed You are the Sufficient, none suffices besides You; the Reliever, none relieves besides You; the Helper, none helps besides You.
وَ جَارٌ لَا جَارَ سِوَاكَ، خَابَ مَنْ كَانَ جَارُهُ سِوَاكَ، وَ مُغِيْثُهُ سِوَاكَ، وَ مَفْزَعُهُ إِلَى سِوَاكَ، وَ مَهْرَبُهُ إِلَى سِوَاكَ
And the Protector, none protects like You; woe to one whose protector is other than You; and his helper, refuge, and retreat are none but You.
وَ مَلْجَؤُهُ اِلٰى غَيْرِكَ، وَ مَنْجَاهُ مِنْ مَخْلُوْقٍ غَيْرِكَ، فَاَنْتَ ثِقَتِيْ وَ رَجَاۤئِي وَ مَفْزَعِيْ، وَ مَهْرَبِيْ وَ مَلْجَئِيْ وَ مَنْجَايَ
And his refuge is not to anyone else, nor his salvation from any creature except You; You are my trust, my hope, my refuge, my retreat, and my deliverance.
فَبِكَ اَسْتَفْتِحُ، وَ بِكَ اَسْتَنْجِحُ، وَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ وَّ اٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ اَتَوَجَّهُ اِلَيْكَ، وَ اَتَوَسَّلُ وَ اَتَشَفَّعُ
By You I begin, and by You I seek victory, and through Muhammad and his family I turn to You, intercede and seek mediation.
فَاَسْاَلُكَ يَاۤ اَللّٰهُ يَاۤ اَللّٰهُ يَاۤ اَللّٰهُ، فَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ وَ لَكَ الشُّكْرُ، وَ اِلَيْكَ الْمُشْتَكٰى وَ اَنْتَ الْمُسْتَعَانُ
I ask You, O Allah, O Allah, O Allah; to You is all praise, and thanks, to You is complaint, and You are the One whose help is sought.
فَاَسْاَلُكَ يَاۤ اَللّٰهُ يَاۤ اَللّٰهُ يَاۤ اَللّٰهُ، بِحَقِّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَّ اٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، اَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلٰى مُحَمَّدٍ وَّ اٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَّ اَنْ تَكْشِفَ عَنِّيْ غَمِّيْ وَ هَمِّيْ وَ كَرْبِيْ فِيْ مَقَامِيْ هٰذَا
I ask You, O Allah, by the right of Muhammad and his family, to send blessings upon Muhammad and his family, and to remove from me my grief, worry, and distress in this station of mine.
كَمَا كَشَفْتَ عَنْ نَبِيِّكَ هَمَّهُ وَ غَمَّهُ وَ كَرْبَهُ، وَ كَفَيْتَهُ هَوْلَ عَدُوِّهِ
As You relieved Your Prophet of his worry, grief, and distress, and protected him from the terror of his enemy.
فَاكْشِفْ عَنِّيْ كَمَا كَشَفْتَ عَنْهُ، وَ فَرِّجْ عَنِّيْ كَمَا فَرَّجْتَ عَنْهُ، وَ اكْفِنِيْ كَمَا كَفَيْتَهُ
So relieve me as You relieved him, grant me relief as You granted him relief, and suffice me as You sufficed him.
وَ اصْرِفْ عَنِّي هَوْلَ مَا أَخَافُ هَوْلَهُ، وَ مَئُونَةَ مَا أَخَافُ مَئُونَتَهُ، وَ هَمَّ مَا أَخَافُ هَمَّهُ
And turn away from me the terror of what I fear, the burden of what I fear, and the worry of what I fear.
بِلَا مَئُوْنَةٍ عَلٰى نَفْسِيْ مِنْ ذٰلِكَ، وَ اصْرِفْنِيْ بِقَضَاۤءِ حَوَاۤئِجِيْ، وَ كِفَايَةِ مَا اَهَمَّنِيْ هَمُّهُ مِنْ اَمْرِ اٰخِرَتِيْ وَ دُنْيَايَ
Without burdening my soul with it, and turn me by fulfilling my needs, and suffice me regarding what concerns me of my worldly and Hereafter affairs.
يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، وَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللّٰهِ، عَلَيْكُمَا مِنِّي سَلَامُ اللّٰهِ أَبَدًا، مَا بَقِيتُ وَ بَقِيَ اللَّيْلُ وَ النَّهَارُ
O Commander of the Faithful and O Aba Abdillah, peace of Allah be upon you forever, as long as I live and as long as day and night remain.
وَ لَا جَعَلَهُ اللّٰهُ اٰخِرَ الْعَهْدِ مِنْ زِيَارَتِكُمَا، وَ لَا فَرَّقَ اللّٰهُ بَيْنِيْ وَ بَيْنَكُمَا
And may Allah not make this my last visit to you, nor separate me from you.
اَللّٰهُمَّ اَحْيِنِيْ حَيَاةَ مُحَمَّدٍ وَّ ذُرِّيَّتِهِ، وَ اَمِتْنِيْ مَمَاتَهُمْ، وَ تَوَفَّنِيْ عَلٰى مِلَّتِهِمْ، وَ احْشُرْنِيْ فِيْ زُمْرَتِهِمْ
O Allah, let me live the life of Muhammad and his progeny, let me die the death of theirs, let me be taken in their faith, and gather me among their ranks.
وَ لَا تُفَرِّقْ بَيْنِيْ وَ بَيْنَهُمْ طَرْفَةَ عَيْنٍ اَبَدًا، فِيْ الدُّنْيَا وَ الْاٰخِرَةِ
And never separate me from them even for the blink of an eye, in this world and the Hereafter.
يَاۤ اَمِيْرَ الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ وَ يَاۤ اَبَا عَبْدِ اللّٰهِ، اَتَيْتُكُمَا زَاۤئِرًا وَ مُتَوَسِّلًا اِلَى اللّٰهِ رَبِّيْ وَ رَبِّكُمَا
O Commander of the Faithful and O Aba Abdillah, I have come to you as a visitor and intercessor to Allah, my Lord and your Lord.
وَ مُتَوَجِّهًا إِلَيْهِ بِكُمَا، وَ مُسْتَشْفِعًا بِكُمَا إِلَى اللّٰهِ تَعَالَى فِي حَاجَتِي هٰذِهِ
And turning to Him through you, seeking your intercession with Allah in this my need.
فَاشْفَعَا لِيْ فَاِنَّ لَكُمَا عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ الْمَقَامَ الْمَحْمُوْدَ، وَ الْجَاهَ الْوَجِيْهَ، وَ الْمَنْزِلَ الرَّفِيْعَ وَ الْوَسِيْلَةَ
So intercede for me, for indeed you have with Allah the praiseworthy station, the honored status, the elevated rank, and the means of intercession.
اِنِّيۤ اَنْقَلِبُ عَنْكُمَا، مُنْتَظِرًا لِتَنَجُّزِ الْحَاجَةِ، وَ قَضَاۤئِهَا وَ نَجَاحِهَا مِنَ اللّٰهِ، بِشَفَاعَتِكُمَا لِيۤ اِلَى اللّٰهِ فِي ذٰلِكَ
Indeed, I return from you, awaiting the fulfillment of my need, its completion and success from Allah, through your intercession for me with Him in this matter.
فَلَا ۤاَخِيْبُ وَ لَا يَكُوْنُ مُنْقَلَبِيْ مُنْقَلَبًا خَاۤئِبًا خَاسِرًا، بَلْ يَكُوْنُ مُنْقَلَبِيْ مُنْقَلَبًا رَاجِحًا رَاجِيًا مُفْلِحًا مُنْجِحًا مُسْتَجَابًا
Thus I will not return disappointed, nor shall my return be in vain or loss, but rather it will be a return of triumph, hope, success, fulfillment, and answered prayers.
بِقَضَاۤءِ جَمِيْعِ حَوَاۤئِجِيْ، وَ تَشَفَّعَا لِيْ اِلَى اللّٰهِ
By the decree of all my needs, and intercede for me to Allah.
اِنْقَلَبْتُ عَلٰى مَا شَاۤءَ اللّٰهُ، وَ لَا حَوْلَ وَ لَا قُوَّةَ اِلَّا بِاللّٰهِ، مُفَوِّضًا اَمْرِيْ اِلَى اللّٰهِ
I turn to whatever Allah wills, and there is no power nor strength except through Allah, entrusting my affairs to Him.
مُلْجِئًا ظَهْرِيْ اِلَى اللّٰهِ، مُتَوَكِّلًا عَلَى اللّٰهِ، وَ اَقُوْلُ حَسْبِيَ اللّٰهُ، وَ كَفٰى
Turning my back to Allah, relying upon Allah, and I say: Allah is sufficient for me, and He is enough.
سَمِعَ اللّٰهُ لِمَنْ دَعَا، لَيْسَ لِي وَرَاۤءَ اللّٰهِ وَ وَرَاۤءَكُمْ
Allah hears those who call upon Him; I have none behind Allah and none behind you.
يَا سَادَتِيْ مُنْتَهًى، مَا شَاۤءَ رَبِّيْ كَانَ، وَ مَا لَمْ يَشَأْ لَمْ يَكُنْ، وَ لَا حَوْلَ وَ لَا قُوَّةَ اِلَّا بِاللّٰهِ
O my masters, ultimate authority, what my Lord wills happens, and what He does not will does not happen; there is no power nor strength except through Allah.
اَسْتَوْدِعُكُمَا اللّٰهَ، وَ لَا جَعَلَهُ اللّٰهُ اٰخِرَ الْعَهْدِ مِنِّيۤ اِلَيْكُمَا
I entrust you to Allah, and may Allah not make this my last pledge to you.
اِنْصَرَفْتُ يَا سَيِّدِيْ يَاۤ اَمِيْرَ الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ، وَ مَوْلَايَ وَ اَنْتَ يَاۤ اَبَا عَبْدِ اللّٰهِ يَا سَيِّدِيْ
I depart, O my master, O Commander of the Faithful, my master, and you, O Aba Abdillah, my master.
وَ سَلَامِيْ عَلَيْكُمَا مُتَّصِلٌ مَا اتَّصَلَ اللَّيْلُ وَ النَّهَارُ، وَاصِلٌ ذٰلِكَ اِلَيْكُمَا غَيْرُ مَحْجُوْبٍ عَنْكُمَا
And my peace be upon you continuously as long as night and day continue, reaching you without being withheld.
سَلَامِيۤ اِنْ شَاۤءَ اللّٰهُ، وَ اَسْاَلُهُ بِحَقِّكُمَا، اَنْ يَّشَاۤءَ ذٰلِكَ وَ يَفْعَلَ، فَاِنَّهُ حَمِيْدٌ مَّجِيْدٌ
My peace, God willing, and I ask Him by your right that He wills this and does it, for He is Praiseworthy, Glorious.
اِنْقَلَبْتُ يَا سَيِّدَيَّ عَنْكُمَا، تَاۤئِبًا حَامِدًا لِلّٰهِ، شَاكِرًا رَاجِيًا لِلْاِجَابَةِ غَيْرَ اٰيِسٍ وَ لَا قَانِطٍ
I turn away from you, my masters, repenting, praising Allah, grateful, and hopeful for acceptance, neither despairing nor losing hope.
اۤئِبًا عَاۤئِدًا رَاجِعًا اِلٰى زِيَارَتِكُمَا غَيْرَ رَاغِبٍ عَنْكُمَا، وَ لَا مِنْ زِيَارَتِكُمَا، بَلْ رَاجِعٌ عَاۤئِدٌ اِنْ شَاۤءَ اللّٰهُ
Returning, turning back to visit you, not reluctant nor avoiding your visitation, but indeed returning, God willing.
وَ لَا حَوْلَ وَ لَا قُوَّةَ اِلَّا بِاللّٰهِ، يَا سَادَتِيْ رَغِبْتُ اِلَيْكُمَا وَ اِلٰى زِيَارَتِكُمَا
And there is no power nor strength except through Allah; O my masters, I long for you and for your visitation.
بَعْدَ اَنْ زَهِدَ فِيْكُمَا، وَ فِيْ زِيَارَتِكُمَا اَهْلُ الدُّنْيَا
After the people of the world have turned away from you and your visitation.
فَلَا خَيَّبَنِيَ اللّٰهُ مَا رَجَوْتُ، وَ مَاۤ اَمَّلْتُ فِيْ زِيَارَتِكُمَا. اِنَّهُ قَرِيْبٌ مُجِيْبٌ
May Allah never disappoint me in what I hoped for and longed in visiting you; indeed, He is near and responsive.
اَللّٰهُمَّ اَحْيِنِيْ حَيَاةَ مُحَمَّدٍ وَّ ذُرِّيَّتِهِ، وَ اَمِتْنِيْ مَمَاتَهُمْ، وَ تَوَفَّنِيْ عَلٰى مِلَّتِهِمْ، وَ احْشُرْنِيْ فِيْ زُمْرَتِهِمْ
O Allah, let me live the life of Muhammad and his progeny, let me die their death, take me unto their faith, and gather me among their company.
وَ لَا تُفَرِّقْ بَيْنِيْ وَ بَيْنَهُمْ طَرْفَةَ عَيْنٍ اَبَدًا، فِيْ الدُّنْيَا وَ الْاٰخِرَةِ
And never separate me from them even for the blink of an eye, forever, in this world and the Hereafter.
يَاۤ اَمِيْرَ الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ وَ يَاۤ اَبَا عَبْدِ اللّٰهِ، اَتَيْتُكُمَا زَاۤئِرًا وَ مُتَوَسِّلًا اِلَى اللّٰهِ رَبِّيْ وَ رَبِّكُمَا
O Commander of the Faithful and O Aba Abdillah, I have come to you as a visitor and intercessor to Allah, my Lord and your Lord.
وَ مُتَوَجِّهًا اِلَيْهِ بِكُمَا، وَ مُسْتَشْفِعًا بِكُمَا اِلَى اللّٰهِ تَعَالٰى فِيْ حَاجَتِيْ هٰذِهِ
Turning to Him through you, seeking intercession by you to Allah, the Exalted, for this my need.
فَاشْفَعَا لِيْ فَاِنَّ لَكُمَا عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ الْمَقَامَ الْمَحْمُوْدَ، وَ الْجَاهَ الْوَجِيْهَ، وَ الْمَنْزِلَ الرَّفِيْعَ وَ الْوَسِيْلَةَ
So intercede for me, for indeed with Allah you have the praised station, noble rank, elevated position, and means of nearness.
اِنِّيۤ اَنْقَلِبُ عَنْكُمَا، مُنْتَظِرًا لِتَنَجُّزِ الْحَاجَةِ، وَ قَضَاۤئِهَا وَ نَجَاحِهَا مِنَ اللّٰهِ، بِشَفَاعَتِكُمَا لِيۤ اِلَى اللّٰهِ فِي ذٰلِكَ
Indeed, I turn away from you, awaiting the fulfillment of my need, its resolution and success from Allah, through your intercession for me with Him in this matter.
فَلَا ۤاَخِيْبُ وَ لَا يَكُوْنُ مُنْقَلَبِيْ مُنْقَلَبًا خَاۤئِبًا خَاسِرًا، بَلْ يَكُوْنُ مُنْقَلَبِيْ مُنْقَلَبًا رَاجِحًا رَاجِيًا مُفْلِحًا مُنْجِحًا مُسْتَجَابًا
So my return shall not be in vain nor unsuccessful, but rather returning with hope, success, achievement, and acceptance.
بِقَضَاۤءِ جَمِيْعِ حَوَاۤئِجِيْ، وَ تَشَفَّعَا لِيْ اِلَى اللّٰهِ
By the decree of all my needs, and intercede for me to Allah.
اِنْقَلَبْتُ عَلٰى مَا شَاۤءَ اللّٰهُ، وَ لَا حَوْلَ وَ لَا قُوَّةَ اِلَّا بِاللّٰهِ، مُفَوِّضًا اَمْرِيْ اِلَى اللّٰهِ
I rely upon what Allah wills, and there is no power nor strength except with Allah, entrusting my matter to Him.
مُلْجِئًا ظَهْرِيْ اِلَى اللّٰهِ، مُتَوَكِّلًا عَلَى اللّٰهِ، وَ اَقُوْلُ حَسْبِيَ اللّٰهُ، وَ كَفٰى
I seek refuge in Allah, rely upon Allah, and I say: Allah is sufficient for me, and sufficient is He.
سَمِعَ اللّٰهُ لِمَنْ دَعَا، لَيْسَ لِي وَرَاۤءَ اللّٰهِ وَ وَرَاۤءَكُمْ، يَا سَادَتِيْ مُنْتَهًى
Allah hears whoever calls; I have none behind Allah and behind you, O my masters, ultimate refuge.
مَا شَاۤءَ رَبِّيْ كَانَ، وَ مَا لَمْ يَشَأْ لَمْ يَكُنْ، وَ لَا حَوْلَ وَ لَا قُوَّةَ اِلَّا بِاللّٰهِ
What my Lord wills happens, and what He does not will does not happen, and there is no power nor strength except with Allah.
اَسْتَوْدِعُكُمَا اللّٰهَ، وَ لَا جَعَلَهُ اللّٰهُ اٰخِرَ الْعَهْدِ مِنِّيۤ اِلَيْكُمَا
I entrust you both to Allah, and may Allah not make this my last covenant with you.
اِنْصَرَفْتُ يَا سَيِّدِيْ يَاۤ اَمِيْرَ الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ، وَ مَوْلَايَ وَ اَنْتَ يَاۤ اَبَا عَبْدِ اللّٰهِ يَا سَيِّدِيْ
I depart, O my master, O Commander of the Faithful, and my guardian, and you, O Aba Abdillah, my master.
وَ سَلَامِيْ عَلَيْكُمَا مُتَّصِلٌ مَا اتَّصَلَ اللَّيْلُ وَ النَّهَارُ، وَاصِلٌ ذٰلِكَ اِلَيْكُمَا غَيْرُ مَحْجُوْبٍ عَنْكُمَا
And my peace be upon you uninterrupted, as long as night and day continue, reaching you unobstructed.
سَلَامِيۤ اِنْ شَاۤءَ اللّٰهُ، وَ اَسْاَلُهُ بِحَقِّكُمَا، اَنْ يَّشَاۤءَ ذٰلِكَ وَ يَفْعَلَ، فَاِنَّهُ حَمِيْدٌ مَّجِيْدٌ
My peace, God willing, and I ask Him by your right that He wills this and accomplishes it, for He is Praiseworthy, Glorious.
اِنْقَلَبْتُ يَا سَيِّدَيَّ عَنْكُمَا، تَاۤئِبًا حَامِدًا لِلّٰهِ، شَاكِرًا رَاجِيًا لِلْاِجَابَةِ غَيْرَ اٰيِسٍ وَ لَا قَانِطٍ
I turn away from you, my masters, repentant, praising Allah, thankful, hoping for answer, neither despairing nor despondent.
اۤئِبًا عَاۤئِدًا رَاجِعًا اِلٰى زِيَارَتِكُمَا غَيْرَ رَاغِبٍ عَنْكُمَا، وَ لَا مِنْ زِيَارَتِكُمَا، بَلْ رَاجِعٌ عَاۤئِدٌ اِنْ شَاۤءَ اللّٰهُ
Returning, coming back to your visitation, not turning away from you, but indeed returning, God willing.
وَلَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ، يَا سَادَتِي رَغِبْتُ إِلَيْكُمَا وَإِلَى زِيَارَتِكُمَا، بَعْدَ أَنْ زَهِدَ فِيكُمَا، وَفِي زِيَارَتِكُمَا أَهْلُ الدُّنْيَا
And there is no power nor strength except with Allah. O my masters, I desire you and your visitation after people of the world have turned away from you.
فَلَا خَيَّبَنِيَ اللّٰهُ مَا رَجَوْتُ، وَ مَاۤ اَمَّلْتُ فِيْ زِيَارَتِكُمَا. اِنَّهُ قَرِيْبٌ مُجِيْبٌ
May Allah not disappoint me in what I hoped and wished for in your visitation. Indeed, He is Near and Responsive.
