His supplication, invoking peace on Prophet
Muhammad (s.a.w.a.)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
O Allah! O the one to move the moving things, and the one to hold the
things without any support (viz. skies), O the one to shape the hearts to
their inner instinct which has the power of goodness and evil. Send Your
abundant blessings on Your special and selected servant Muhammad
(s.a.w.a.) and his progeny who will make the preceeding religion reach
its climax, and will reveal the concealed things, will proclaim the truth by
truth, who will eradicate evil, break the power of deviation which was
entrusted to him. He fulfilled his covenant in a right way, was firm on
Your commands, was always desiring Your wish, neither he retreated
nor was there any laxity in his intentions. He was attentively hearing
Your revelations, was a protector of Your covenant, the one to
prosecute Your commands so much that for the seekers of light, it
illuminated, was a way for the deviated ones, the heart after being
involved in corruption and ignorance, found guidance. With the help of
Your signs, and clear laws he has illuminated everything. Now He is
Your protected one and the trustee of Your Guarded Knowledge, Your
witnesses on the day of reward and Your appointed one with truth is
Your Prophet towards the creatures. O Allah grant him a high place in
Your mercy, by Your grace grant him the greatest reward. Raise him in
the highest ranks as compared to all of those whom You will raise. Make
his status more holy, complete the light (of Your Wilayat) for him. In lieu
of appointing him as a Prophet, make his witness accepted, and his
speech a delight. Make his speech decisive, gather us together in the
life’s pleasantness, at the stage of bounties, at the desire of the wishes,
the facilities of the abodes of satisfaction of the desires, heights of
contentment and with the gifts of Miracles.
