(35)

His supplication in the first 10 days of Zilhajj

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful

There is no god save Allah, in the midst of the multitude of nights and

days; there is no god save Allah, in the midst of the repeating concourse

of the waves moving across the surface of the oceans; there is no god

save Allah, His loving kindness out balances their addition put together;

there is no god save Allah, in the midst of the plentitude of plants and

leaves; There is no god save Allah, in the midst of countless pores and

mass of hairs; there is no god save Allah, in the midst of numerous

stones and particles in heaps; there is no god save Allah, in the midst of

quite a many flashes of the eyes; there is no god save Allah, in the

hours of every night when darkness begins to deepen and at every

daybreak when light shines bright; there is no god save Allah, in the

midst of thousands of winds blowing over the plains and mountains;

there is no god save Allah, from today to the day of "blowing of the horn"

(the final call).
