DUA YA IMAM AL-BAQIR (A.S)
اَللَّهُمَّ إِنَّي اَساَلُكَ
Allāhumma ʾinnay asāluka
O Allah, I beseech You,
Ee Allah, hakika mimi nakuomba,
يَا حَلِيْمُ ذُوْ [ذَا] آَنَاةٍ
Yā ḥalīmu dhū dhā ānātin
O Indulgent, Forbearing,
Ee Mpole, Mwenye uvumilivu,
غَفُوْرٌ وَدُوْدٌ
Ghafūrun wadūdun
Forgiving, and Loving-kind,
Mwenye kusamehe, Mwenye upendo mwingi,
آَنْ تَتَجَاوَزَ عَنْ سَيِّئَاتِي وَ مَا عِنْدِيْ
Ān tatajāwaza ʿan sayyiʾātī wa mā ʿindī
to overlook my sins and what I have had,
unisamehe makosa yangu na yale niliyonayo,
بِحْسْنِ مَا عِنْدَكَ
Biḥsni mā ʿindaka
out of the excellence of what You have,
kwa wema wa kile ulicho nacho,
وَ آَنْ تُغْطِيَنِي مِنْ عَطَآئِكَ مَا يَسَعُنِيْ
Wa ān tughṭiyanī min ʿaṭaʾāʾika mā yasaʿunī
to give me, out of Your giving, that which suffices me,
unipe, katika kutoa Kwako, kile kinachonitosheleza,

Wa tulhimanin fīmā aʿṭaytanī al-ʿamala fīhi

unihimize kutenda katika yale uliyonipa;
بِطَاعَتِكَ وَ طَاعَةٍ رَسُوْلِكَ
Biṭāʿatika wa ṭāʿatin rasūlika
that is to obey You and to obey Your Messenger,
ambako ni kukutii Wewe na kumtii Mtume Wako,
وَ آَنْ تُغْطِيَني مِنْ عَفْوِكَ
Wa ān tughṭiyany min ʿafwika
and to give me part of Your pardon
na unipe sehemu ya msamaha Wako
مَا اَسْتَوْجِبُ بِهِ كَرَامَتَكَ
Mā astawjibu bihi karāmataka
so much so that I ought to have Your honoring.
kiasi kwamba nitastahiki heshima Yako.
اَللّهُمَّ اَعْطِنِي مَا اَنْتَ اَهْلُهُ
Allāhumma aʿṭinī mā anta ahluhu
O Allah, (please) grant me that which befits You
Ee Allah, nipe yale yanayokustahiki Wewe
وَ لَا تَفْعَلْ بِي مَا أَنَا اَهْلَهُ
Wa lā tafʿal bī mā ʾanā ahlahu
and do not do to me that which I deserve.
na usinitendee yale ninayoyastahili mimi.
فَاِنَّمَا آَنَا بِكَ
Fānnamā ānā bika
Verily, l exist through You
Kwani hakika mimi nipo kupitia Kwako,
وَ لَمْ أُصِبْ خَيْرًا قَطُّ اِلَّا مِنْكَ
Wa lam ʾuṣib khayran qaṭṭu al-ā minka
and I have never been given any good thing from any source except You.
na sijawahi kupata kheri yoyote kamwe isipokuwa kutoka Kwako.
