Supplication
O Lord! You are the most attached to Your lovers and the most
ready to assist those who trust in You. You see them in their concealment,
know whatever is in their conscience and are aware of the extent of their
intelligence. Consequently, their secrets are open to You and their hearts
are eager from You. If loneliness bores them, Your remembrance gives
them solace. If distresses befall them, they solicit Your protection because
they know that the reins of affairs are in Your hands and that their
movements depend upon Your commands.
O Lord! If I am unable to express my request or cannot see my
needs, then guide me towards my betterment. Take my betterment and my
heart towards the sound goal. This is not against (the mode of) Your
guidance nor anything new against Your ways of support.
O Lord! Deal with me with Your forgiveness and do not deal with
me according to Your justice.
