| On Seated Gathering Places (250) |
The Messenger of Allah  said:"No one sits in a seating place in which he utters much confusion, but then says prior to getting up from that seating
place of his: Subhănaka 'allăhumma wa bihamdika, 'ash-hadu 'allă 'ilăha 'illă 'anta, 'astaghfiruka wa 'atoobu 'ilayka(255)
except that Allah would cover up for him that which occurred in that seating of his".

lană min khashyatika mă tahoolu bihi baynană wa bayna ma'ăseeka, wa min tă'a, wa min tă'atika mă tuballighună bihi jannataka,
wa minal yaqeeni mă tuhawwinu bihi 'alaynă masă'ibad-dunyă, 'allăhumma matti'nă bi'asmă'ina, wa 'absărină, wa quwwatină mă
'ahyaytană, waj'ak hul-wăritha minnă, waj'al tha'rană 'alămen thalamană, wansurnă 'ală men, 'ădănă, wa lă taj'al museebatană
fee deenină, wa lă taj'alid-dunyă 'akbara hammină, wa lă mablagha 'ilmină, wa lă tusallit 'alaynă men lă yarhamună"(256)

(256) O' my 'ilăh part for us fear of You which You cause to come between us and the acts
of disobedience to You, obedience to You through which You deliver us to your Garden, and of surety with which You make the
calamities of the World easy for us to bear. O' my 'ilăh grant us joy in our hearing, our sight, and our strength so long
as You keep us alive, and make them of the things we leave behind at death [meaning keep them well till we die], and make
our retaliation to be upon those that have transgressed upon us, and cause us victory over those that have made us their enemies,
and do not let our calamity be in our faith, and do not make the world the biggest of our concerns, nor the limit of our knowledge,
and do not empower over us who will not have mercy upon us. |
