And make me enter, O First, O Last, the concealed depth of the unseen of the secret of the circle of the treasure of 'What God wills; there is no power save through God' (Q 18:39).

   Guard me, O Withholder, O Repeller, by Your Names, Your signs and Your words, from the evil of the devil and of the ruler, so that if any wrongdoer or tyrant transgresses against me, an overwhelming [portion] of God's chastisement seizes him. And deliver me, O Abaser, O Avenger, from those of Your servants who wrong me and transgress against me, and from their helpers, so that if any one of them intends harm against me, God forsakes him, seals up his hearing and his heart, and places a covering over his sight. Then who will guide him after God?
