His supplication recited after entering the
mosque and before commencing the
prayers
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
O the one Whom everything in the Heavens and the Earth questions,
and Who is in the same condition all the time. O Allah! By Your power
listen to my request and in this condition grant me my request. O Allah! I
request You to free me from hell, and put Your Honoured attention on
me.
After this, raise the hands towards the skies and say: Allah is great!
Allah is great! Allah is great! Sanctified, exalted, venerable. All Praise is
for Allah, Who has not taken a son and Who has no partner in the
kingdom, and Who has no helper to save Him from disgrace and
proclaim His greatness magnifying Him. Allah is Great and He deserves
greatness, praise, divine decree and there is no god except Allah and
Allah is great. He begets not, nor is He begotten and none is like Him.
Allah is great. There is no partner for Him and I swear by His greatness
and Honour and say I seek refuge through You from the Satan the
stoned one.

There is no god except Allah and Allah is great. Praise is for Allah,
Glorification is for Allah and for Him is the praise and Allah is Honoured.
There is no might or Power, but with Allah, nor a place of refuge except
with Allah. Glorified is Allah, and Allah is great and there is no god but
Allah equal to the number of evens and odds to the number of pebbles
and to the number of raindrops and to the number of complete and pure
words of Allah.

In the name of Allah, O Allah! By the help of this prayer I approach You
attentively and sincerely. You have no partner. You are Pure and Praise
belongs to You. Those who revolt against You are liars. Complete Islam
