مروي عن الأئمة المعصومين عليهم السلام في كتب الأدعية المعتبرة.
Twenty-first: In addition to sustenance, this supplicatory prayer, which is quoted from Sayyid Ibn Tawus's book of al-Mujtana, may be used for other purposes:
Ya ishirini na moja: Mbali na riziki, sala hii ya dua, ambayo imenukuliwa kutoka kitabu cha Sayyid Ibn Tawus cha al-Mujtana, inaweza kutumika kwa madhumuni mengine:
اَللَّهُمّ إِنَّ ذُنُوْبِى لَمْ يَبْقَ لَهَا اِلَّا رَجَآءُ عَفْوِكَ
Allāhumma inna dhunūbī lam yabqa lahā illā rajā'u 'afwika
O Allah, nothing has indeed left for my sins except my hope for Your pardon
Ee Mwenyezi Mungu, hakuna kilichosalia kwa dhambi zangu isipokuwa matumaini yangu ya msamaha Wako.
وَ قَدْ قَدَّمْتُ الَةَ الْحِزْمَانِ بَيْنَ يَدَىَّ
Wa qad qaddamtul-ālat al-ḥirmāni bayna yadayya
although I have done things due to which I deserve deprivation of Your pardon.
ingawa nimefanya mambo ambayo kwayo nastahili kunyimwa msamaha Wako.
فَانَا اَسْئَلُكَ مَا لَا اَسْتَجِقُهُ
Fa anā as'aluka mā lā astajiqqūhu
Therefore, I beseech You for what I do not deserve,
Kwa hiyo, nakuomba Wewe kwa yale nisiyostahili,
وَ اَدْعُوْكَ مَالَا اَسْتَوْجِبُهُ
Wa ad'ūka mā lā astawjibuhū
I seek from You what I do not merit,
Nakuomba Wewe kwa yale nisiyostahiki,
وَ ٱَتَّضَرَّعُ اِلَيْكَ بِمَا لَا اَسْتَاْهِلُهُ
Wa ataḍarra'u ilayka bimā lā astāhiluhū
and I implore You for what I do not earn.
na nakulilia Wewe kwa yale nisiyostahili.
وَ لَمْ يَخْفَ عَلَيْكَ حَالِىْ
Wa lam yakhfa 'alayka ḥālī
My situation is not concealed from You
Hali yangu haijifichi Kwako
وَ إِنْ خَفِىَ عَلَى النَّاسِ كُنْهُ مَعْرِفَةِ آَمْرِيْ
Wa in khafiya 'ala an-nāsi kunhu ma'rifati amrī
although the actual knowledge of my manners is hidden from people.
ingawa ujuzi halisi wa mwenendo wangu umefichwa kutoka kwa watu.
اَللَّهُمَّ اِنْ كَانَ رِزْقِى فِي السَّمَاءِ فَاهْبِظهُ
Allāhumma in kāna rizqī fī as-samā'i fa'ahbiṭhu
O Allah, if my sustenance in the sky, then (please) send it down to me,
Ee Mwenyezi Mungu, ikiwa riziki yangu iko mbinguni, basi (tafadhali) iteremshe kwangu,
وَ اِنْ كَانَ فِى الْاَرْضِ فَاظْهِرْهُ
Wa in kāna fī al-arḍi fa'aẓhirhu
if it is in the earth, then (please) show it to me,
ikiwa iko ardhini, basi (tafadhali) nionyeshe,
وَ اِنْ كَانَ بَعِيْدًا فَقَرِّبْهُ
Wa in kāna ba'īdan faqarrībhu
if it is far off, then (please) draw it near me,
ikiwa iko mbali, basi (tafadhali) ilete karibu nami,
وَ اِنْ كَانَ قَرِيْبًا فَيَسِّرْهُ
Wa in kāna qarīban fayassirhu
if it is near, then (please) make it easy for me to reach it,
ikiwa iko karibu, basi (tafadhali) nifanyie iwe rahisi kuipata,
وَ اِنْ كَانَ قَلِيْلَا فَكَتَّرْهُ
Wa in kāna qalīlan fakaththirhu
and if it is little, then (please) multiply it for me
na ikiwa ni chache, basi (tafadhali) iongeze kwangu
وَ بَارِكْ لِىْ فِيْهِ.
Wa bārik lī fīhi.
and grant me its blessings.
na nibariki ndani yake.
