The Munājāt of Ibn ʿAṭāʾ Allāh

المناجاة العطائية

Clause 5 of 33 · The intimate prayers

اِلَهِى اِنْ ظَهَرَتِ الْمَحَاسِنُ مِنِّى فَبِفَضْلِكَ وَلَكَ الْمِنَّةُ عَلَىَّ وَاِنْ ظَهَرَتِ الْمَسَاوِى فَبِعَدْلِكَ وَلَكَ الْحُجَّةُ عَلَىَّ

My God, if good qualities appear in me, it is by Your bounty, and Yours is the gracious gift upon me; and if evil qualities appear in me, it is by Your justice, and Yours is the decisive argument against me.

Ilāhī in ẓaharati l-maḥāsinu minnī fa-bi-faḍlika wa-laka l-minnatu ʿalayya wa-in ẓaharati l-masāwī fa-bi-ʿadlika wa-laka l-ḥujjatu ʿalayy
