Ḥizb al-Shakwā

حزب الشكوى

Clause 89 of 99 · The closing

وَاجْعَلْنِي مِمَّنْ هُدِيَ وَاهْتَدَى وَسَمِعَ وَوَعَى وَقُرِّبَ وَأُدْنِيَ وَمَنْ سَبَقَ لَهُ مِنْكَ الْحُسْنَى وَمَنْ نَالَ أَفْضَلَ مَا يَتَمَنَّى

Make me one of those who were guided and followed guidance, who heard and took it in, who were brought near and close; one for whom the best has gone ahead from You, one who has won the best he could wish for.

Wa-jʿalnī mimman hudiya wa-htadā wa-samiʿa wa-waʿā wa-qurriba wa-udniya wa-man sabaqa lahu minka l-ḥusnā wa-man nāla afḍala mā yatamannā
