O Allah, we beseech Thy help and request Thy protection and believe in Thee and trust in Thee and we laud Thee in the best manner and we thank Thee and we are not ungrateful to Thee. And we cast off and forsake him who disobeys Thee. O Allah, Thee alone do we serve and to Thee alone do we pray and make obeisance and to Thee we flee and we are quick and we hope for Thy mercy and we fear Thy chastisement, for surely Thy chastisement overtakes the unbelievers.
