Muslim bastion


1. When waking up
(1)

الحَمْـدُ لِلّهِ الّذي أَحْـيانا
بَعْـدَ ما أَماتَـنا وَإليه النُّـشور.

Alhamdu lillahil-lathee ahyana baAAda ma amatana wa-ilayhin-nushoor.
‘All praise is for Allah who gave us life after having taken it from us
and unto Him is the resurrection.’

(2)

The Prophet  said : ‘Whoever awakes at night and then says:
لا إلهَ إلاّ اللّهُ وَحْـدَهُ لا شَـريكَ له، لهُ
المُلـكُ ولهُ الحَمـد، وهوَ على كلّ شيءٍ قدير، سُـبْحانَ اللهِ،
والحمْـدُ لله ، ولا إلهَ إلاّ اللهُ واللهُ أكبَر، وَلا حَولَ وَلا قوّة
إلاّ باللّهِ العليّ العظيم. La ilaha illal-lahu wahdahu la
shareeka lah, lahul-mulku walahul-hamd, wahuwa AAala kulli shay-in
qadeer, subhanal-lah, walhamdu lillah, wala ilaha illal-lah wallahu
akbar, wala hawla wala quwwata illa billahil-AAaliyyil AAatheem.
‘None has the right to be worshipped except Allah, alone without
associate, to Him belongs sovereignty and praise and He is over all
things wholly capable. How perfect Allah is, and all praise is for
Allah, and none has the right to be worshipped except Allah, Allah is
the greatest and there is no power nor might except with Allah, The Most
High, The Supreme.
…and then supplicates:

رَبِّ اغْفرْ لي.

Rabbigh-fir lee
‘O my Lord forgive me.’
…will be forgiven’
Al-Waleed said, “or he  said:
‘and then asks, he will be answered.If he then performs ablution and
prays, his prayer will be accepted’.”

(3)

الحمدُ للهِ الذي عافاني في جَسَدي
وَرَدّ عَليّ روحي وَأَذِنَ لي بِذِكْرِه .

Alhamdu lillahil-lathee AAafanee fee jasadee waradda AAalayya roohee
wa-athina lee bithikrih.
‘All praise is for Allah who restored to me my health and returned my
soul and has allowed me to remember Him.’

(4)

 إِنّ فِي خَلْقِ السّمَوَ اتِ
وَالأرْضِ واخْتِـلافِ اللّيلِ والنّهارِ لآياتٍ لأُولي الألباب …

(سورة آل عمران 190-200)Inna fee khalqi alssamawati waal-ardi

(From Verse 3:190 till the end of the chapter Ali AAimran)

Allahumma lakal-hamdu anta kasawtaneeh, as-aluka min khayrihi wakhayri

noora,wajAAal fee basaree noora, wajAAal min khalfee noora, wamin amamee
noora ,wajAAal min fawqee noora, wamin tahtee noora, allahumma aAAtinee

‘O Allah, place within my heart light, and upon my tongue light, and
within my ears light, and within my eyes light, and place behind me
light and in front of me light and above me light and beneath me light. O
Allah, bestow upon me light.’

13. Upon entering the mosque
(20)
أَعوذُ باللهِ العَظيـم وَبِوَجْهِـهِ
الكَرِيـم وَسُلْطـانِه القَديـم مِنَ الشّيْـطانِ الرَّجـيم،[ بِسْـمِ
الله، وَالصَّلاةُ] [وَالسَّلامُ عَلى رَسولِ الله]، اللّهُـمَّ افْتَـحْ
لي أَبْوابَ رَحْمَتـِك .

aAAoothu billahil-AAatheem wabiwajhihil-kareem wasultanihil-qadeem
minash-shaytanir-rajeem, [bismil-lah, wassalatu] [wassalamu AAala
rasol-lah] , allahumma iftah lee abwaba rahmatik.
‘I take refuge with Allah, The Supreme and with His Noble Face, and His
eternal authority from the accursed devil. In the name of Allah, and
prayers and peace be upon the Messenger of Allah. O Allah, open the
gates of Your mercy for me.’

14. Upon leaving the mosque
(21)
بِسمِ الله وَالصّلاةُ وَالسّلامُ عَلى
رَسولِ الله، اللّهُـمَّ إِنّـي أَسْأَلُكَ مِـنْ فَضْـلِك، اللّهُـمَّ
اعصِمْنـي مِنَ الشَّيْـطانِ الرَّجـيم.

Bismil-lah wassalatu wassalamu AAala rasol-lah, allahumma innee as-aluka
min fadlik, allahumma iAAsimnee minash-shaytanir-rajeem.
‘In the name of Allah, and prayers and peace be upon the Messenger of
Allah. O Allah, I ask You from Your favour. O Allah, guard me from the
accursed devil.’

15. Supplications related to the athan (the call to prayer)
(22)
‘One repeats just as the mu-aththin (one who calls to prayer) says,
except when he says:

حَـيَّ عَلـى
الصَّلاة (أَو) حَـيَّ عَلـى الْفَـلاح.
Hayya AAalas-salah (or) hayya AAalal-falah
‘come to prayer, come to success’
instead, one should say:
لا حَـوْلَ وَلا قُـوَّةَ إِلاّ بِالله.
La hawla wala quwwata illa billah.
‘There is no might nor power except with Allah.’

(23)
Immediately following the declaration of faith called by the mu-aththin,
one says:

وَأَنا أَشْـهَدُ أَنْ لا
إِلـهَ إِلاّ اللهُ وَحْـدَهُ لا شَـريكَ لَـه ، وَأَنَّ محَمّـداً
عَبْـدُهُ وَرَسـولُه ، رَضيـتُ بِاللهِ رَبَّاً ، وَبِمُحَمَّـدٍ رَسـولاً
وَبِالإِسْلامِ دينَـاً .
Wa-ana ashhadu an la ilaha illal-lahu wahdahu la shareeka lah, wa-anna
Muhammadan AAabduhu warasooluh, radeetu billahi rabban wabimuhammadin
rasoolan wabil-islami deena.
‘And I too bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped except
Allah, alone, without partner, and that Muhammad is His salve and
Messenger. I am pleased with Allah as a Lord, and Muhammad as a
Messenger and Islam as a religion.’

(24)
‘One should then send prayers on the Prophet  after answering the call
of the mu-aththin’

(25)
اللّهُـمَّ رَبَّ هَذِهِ الدّعْـوَةِ
التّـامَّة وَالصّلاةِ القَـائِمَة آتِ محَـمَّداً الوَسيـلةَ
وَالْفَضـيلَة وَابْعَـثْه مَقـامـاً مَحـموداً الَّذي وَعَـدْتَه
إِنَّـكَ لا تُـخْلِفُ الميـعاد.
Allahumma rabba hathihid-daAAwatit-tammah, wassalatil-qa-imah ati
Muhammadan alwaseelata wal-fadeelah, wabAAath-hu maqaman mahmoodan
allathee waAAadtah, innaka la tukhliful-meeAAad.
‘O Allah, Owner of this perfect call and Owner of this prayer to be
performed, bestow upon Muhammad al-waseelah and al-fadeelah and send him
upon a praised platform which You have promised him. Verily, You never
fail in Your promise.’
al-waseelah: A station in paradise.
al-fadeelah: A rank above the rest of creation.
praised platform: One in which all of creation will praise him on, in
order to bring about the account quickly and be relieved from the
lengthy standing or the role of intercession.

(26)
One should also supplicate for himself during the time between the athan
and the iqamah as supplication at such time is not rejected.

16. Supplication at the start of the prayer (after takbeer)

(27)
اللّهُـمَّ باعِـدْ بَيـني وَبَيْنَ
خَطـايايَ كَما باعَدْتَ بَيْنَ المَشْرِقِ وَالمَغْرِبْ ، اللّهُـمَّ
نَقِّنـي مِنْ خَطايايَ كَمـا يُـنَقَّى الثَّـوْبُ الأَبْيَضُ مِنَ
الدَّنَسْ ، اللّهُـمَّ اغْسِلْنـي مِنْ خَطايـايَ بِالثَّلـجِ وَالمـاءِ
وَالْبَرَدْ .
Allahumma baAAid baynee wabayna khatayaya kama baAAadta baynal-mashriqi
walmaghrib, allahumma naqqinee min khatayaya kama
yuna×××th-thawbul-abyadu minad-danas, allahummagh-silnee min khatayaya
biththalji walma/i walbarad.
‘O Allah, distance me from my sins just as You have distanced The East
from The West, O Allah, purify me of my sins as a white robe is purified
of filth, O Allah, cleanse me of my sins with snow, water, and ice.’

(28)
سُبْـحانَكَ اللّهُـمَّ وَبِحَمْـدِكَ
وَتَبارَكَ اسْمُـكَ وَتَعـالى جَـدُّكَ وَلا إِلهَ غَيْرُك .

Subhanakal-lahumma wabihamdika watabarakas-muka wataAAala jadduka wala
ilaha ghayruk.
‘How perfect You are O Allah, and I praise You. Blessed be Your name,
and lofty is Your position and none has the right to be worshipped
except You.’


(29)

وَجَّهـتُ وَجْهِـيَ لِلَّذي فَطَرَ
السَّمـواتِ وَالأَرْضَ حَنـيفَاً وَمـا أَنا مِنَ المشْرِكين ، إِنَّ
صَلاتـي ، وَنُسُكي ، وَمَحْـيايَ ، وَمَماتـي للهِ رَبِّ العالَمين ، لا
شَريـكَ لَهُ وَبِذلكَ أُمِرْتُ وَأَنا مِنَ المسْلِـمين . اللّهُـمَّ
أَنْتَ المَلِكُ لا إِلهَ إِلاّ أَنْت ،أَنْتَ رَبِّـي وَأَنـا عَبْـدُك ،
ظَلَمْـتُ نَفْسـي وَاعْـتَرَفْتُ بِذَنْبـي فَاغْفِرْ لي ذُنوبي جَميعاً
إِنَّـه لا يَغْـفِرُ الذُّنـوبَ إلاّ أَنْت .وَاهْدِنـي لأَحْسَنِ
الأَخْلاقِ لا يَهْـدي لأَحْسَـنِها إِلاّ أَنْـت ، وَاصْـرِف عَـنّْي
سَيِّئَهـا ، لا يَصْرِفُ عَـنّْي سَيِّئَهـا إِلاّ أَنْـت ، لَبَّـيْكَ
وَسَعْـدَيْك ، وَالخَـيْرُ كُلُّـهُ بِيَـدَيْـك ، وَالشَّرُّ لَيْـسَ
إِلَـيْك ، أَنا بِكَ وَإِلَيْـك ، تَبـارَكْتَ وَتَعـالَيتَ
أَسْتَغْـفِرُكَ وَأَتوبُ إِلَـيك .

Wajjahtu wajhiya lillathee fataras-samawati wal-arda haneefan wama ana
minal-mushrikeen, inna salatee wanusukee wamahyaya wamamatee lillahi

wasaAAdayk,walkhayru kulluhu biyadayk, washsharru laysa ilayk, ana bika
wa-ilayk, tabarakta wataAAalayt, astaghfiruka wa-atoobu ilayk.
‘I have turned my face sincerely towards He who has brought forth the
heavens and the Earth and I am not of those who associate (others with
Allah). Indeed my prayer, my sacrifice, my life and my death are for
Allah, Lord of the worlds, no partner has He, with this I am commanded
and I am of the Muslims. O Allah, You are the Sovereign, none has the
right to be worshipped except You. You are my Lord and I am Your
servant, I have wronged my own soul and have acknowledged my sin, so
forgive me all my sins for no one forgives sins except You. Guide me to
the best of characters for none can guide to it other than You, and
deliver me from the worst of characters for none can deliver me from it
other than You. Here I am, in answer to Your call, happy to serve you.
All good is within Your hands and evil does not stem from You. I exist
by your will and will return to you. Blessed and High are You, I seek
Your forgiveness and repent unto You.’
Allah does not create pure evil which does not have any good or contain
any benefit, wisdom or mercy at all, nor does He punish anyone without
having commited a sin. Something can be good in terms of its creation
when viewed in a particular perspective and at the same time be evil
when viewed in another way. Allah created the devil and by him, He tests
His servants, so there are those who hate the devil, fight him and his
way and they stand at enmity towards him and his followers and there are
others who are at allegiance with the devil and follow his steps. So
evil exists in His creatures by His will and wisdom, not in His actions
or act of creating.

‘O Allah, Lord of Jibra-eel, Meeka-eel and Israfeel (great angles),
Creator of the heavens and the Earth, Knower of the seen and the unseen.
You are the arbitrator between Your servants in that which they have
disputed. Guide me to the truth by Your leave, in that which they have
differed, for verily You guide whom You will to a straight path.’

and I declare the perfection of Allah in the early morning and in the
late afternoon.’(three times)
‘I take refuge with Allah from the devil, from his pride, his poetry and
his madness.’


(32)
The prophet  would say (as an opening supplication in prayer) when
rising from sleep to perform prayers during the night:

اللّهُـمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ نـورُ السَّمـواتِ
وَالأَرْضِ وَمَنْ فيـهِن ، وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ قَـيِّمُ السَّـمواتِ
وَالأَرْضِ وَمَنْ فيـهِن ، [وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ رَبُّ السَّـمواتِ
وَالأَرْضِ وَمَنْ فيـهِن] [وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ لَكَ مُلْـكُ السَّـمواتِ
وَالأَرْضِ وَمَنْ فيـهِن] [وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ مَلِـكُ السَّـمواتِ

‘O Allah, to You belongs all praise, You are the Light of the heavens
and the Earth and all that is within them. To You belongs all praise,
You are the Sustainer of the heavens and the Earth and all that is
within them. To You belongs all praise. You are Lord of the heavens and
the Earth and all that is within them. To You belongs all praise and the
kingdom of the heavens and the Earth and all that is within them. To
You belongs all praise, You are the King of the heavens and the Earth
and to You belongs all praise. You are The Truth, Your promise is true,
your Word is true, and the Day in which we will encounter You is true,
the Garden of Paradise is true and the Fire is true, and the Prophets
are true, Muhammad  is true and the Final Hour is true. O Allah, unto
You I have submitted, and upon You I have relied, and in You I have
believed, and to You I have turned in repentance, and over You I have
disputed, and to You I have turned for judgment. So forgive me for what
has come to pass of my sins and what will come to pass, and what I have
hidden and what I have made public. You are Al-Muqaddim and
Al-Mu-akhkhir. None has the right to be worshipped except You, You are
my Deity, none has the right to be worshipped except You.’
Meaning of Al-Muqaddim and Al-Mu-akhkhir: Allah puts forward and favours
whom He wills from amongst His creation just as He defers and holds
