اَللّٰهُمَّ احْفَظْ حُجَّاجَ بَيْتِكَ الْحَرَامِ وَزُوَّارَ نَبِيِّكَ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَاجْعَلْ حَجَّهُمْ مَبْرُورًا، وَسَعْيَهُمْ مَشْكُورًا، وَذُنُوبَهُمْ مَغْفُورَةً، وَأَعْمَالَهُمْ مَقْبُولَةً، وَاخْلُفْ عَلَى مَا تَرَكُوا بَعْدَهُمْ بِخَيْرٍ، وَاجْعَلْهُمْ فِيمَا قُدِّرَ لَهُمْ مِنْ خَيْرِ الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ، وَأَطِلْ لَهُمْ فِي صِحَّتِهِمْ وَعَافِيَتِهِمْ، وَأَوْسِعْ لَهُمْ فِي أَرْزَاقِهِمْ، وَاكْفِهِمْ شَرَّ مَا خَلَقْتَ، وَاكْفِهِمْ شَرَّ الشَّيْطَانِ، وَاجْعَلْهُمْ آمِنِينَ فِي دِيَارِهِمْ، وَأَعِذْهُمْ مِنَ الْهَمِّ وَالْحَزَنِ، وَمِنَ الْفُقْرِ وَالْفَاقَةِ، وَمِنَ الْجُوعِ وَالْقِلَّةِ، وَمِنَ الظُّلْمِ وَالْجَوْرِ، وَمِنَ الْخَوْفِ وَالْفِتَنِ، وَاجْعَلْهُمْ سَالِمِينَ غَانِمِينَ، وَاجْعَلْ حَجَّهُمْ سَبَبًا لِقُرْبِهِمْ مِنْكَ، وَمَغْفِرَةً لِذُنُوبِهِمْ، وَرِضْوَانًا لِوَجْهِكَ الْكَرِيمِ، وَاجْعَلْهُمْ مِمَّنْ غَفَرْتَ لَهُمْ وَرَضِيتَ عَنْهُمْ، وَأَدْخَلْتَهُمْ جَنَّاتِ النَّعِيمِ، إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ.
O Allah, protect the pilgrims of Your Sacred House and the visitors of Your Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. Make their Hajj accepted (Mabroor), their efforts appreciated (Mashkoor), their sins forgiven, and their deeds accepted. Be their successor for what they have left behind with goodness. Grant them the good You have decreed for them in this world and the Hereafter. Prolong their health and well-being. Expand their sustenance. Protect them from the evil of what You have created, and protect them from the evil of Satan. Make them feel secure in their homes. Safeguard them from worry and grief, from poverty and destitution, from hunger and scarcity, from injustice and oppression, from fear and trials. Make them safe and victorious. Make their Hajj a means of their closeness to You, forgiveness for their sins, and pleasure for Your Noble Countenance. Make them among those whom You have forgiven, You are pleased with, and You have admitted into the Gardens of Bliss. Indeed, You are the Oft-Forgiving, the Most Merciful.
