โœฆ

In the name of Allah we enter, and in the name of Allah we leave, and upon our Lord we depend. O Allah, I ask You for the best of entering and the best of leaving, the door of goodness and the door of blessings, the door of provision, the door of well-being, the door of safety, the door of understanding, the door of knowledge, the door of action, the door of strength, the door of health, the door of gratitude, the door of repentance, the door of contentment, the door of supplication, the door of faith, the door of the Quran, the door of religion, and the door of this world and the Hereafter. And I ask You to protect me from Satan, the male and female, and from jinn and humans, and to bless me in my family and my wealth and in everything You have given me. O Allah, make us secure and tranquil, safe and victorious, healthy and wealthy, free for Your service, occupied with Your remembrance. O Allah, bless us in our entering and our leaving, and in all our affairs.

*Bismillahi walajna, wa bismillahi kharajna, wa 'ala Rabbina tawakkalna. Allahumma inni as'aluka khairal madkhali wa khairal makhraj, babal khairi wa babal barakati, wa babar rizqi, wa babal 'aafiyati, wa babas salamati, wa babal fiqhi, wa babal 'ilmi, wa babal 'amali, wa babal quwwati, wa babas sihhati, wa babash shukri, wa babat tawbati, wa babal qana'ati, wa babad du'a'i, wa babal imani, wa babal Qur'ani, wa babad dini, wa babad dunyati wal akhirati. Wa as'aluka an tujirini minash shaitani wash shaitanati, wal jinni wal insi, wa an tubarikali fi ahli wa mali wa fi kulli shay'in a'taytani. Allahumma ij'alna aamineena mutma'innina, saalimina ghaanimeena, 'aafiyeena ghaniyyeena, faarigheena li shughlik, mutashaghileena bidhikrik. Allahumma barik lana fi dukhoolina wa khuroojina, wa fi jamee'i shu'oonina.*
