يَا مَنْ أَمَاتَ وَأَحْيَا وَأَقْصَى وَأَدْنَى وَأَسْعَدَ وَأَشْقَى وَأَضَلَّ وَهَدَى وَأَفْقَرَ وَأَغْنَى وَعَافَى وَأَبْلَى وَقَدَّرَ وَقَضَى كُلًّا بِعَظِيمِ تَدْبِيرِهِ وَسَابِقِ تَقْدِيرِهِ

You who gave death and life, sent far and brought near, made happy and made wretched, let stray and guided, made poor and made rich, gave health and gave trials, and measured and decreed each by Your great governing and Your prior measuring:

Yā man amāta wa-aḥyā wa-aqṣā wa-adnā wa-asʿada wa-ashqā wa-aḍalla wa-hadā wa-afqara wa-aghnā wa-ʿāfā wa-ablā wa-qaddara wa-qaḍā kullan bi-ʿaẓīmi tadbīrihi wa-sābiqi taqdīrih
