اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ، رَبَّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، فَالِقَ الحَبِّ وَالنَّوَى، مُنْزِلَ التَّوْرَاةِ وَالإِنْجِيلِ وَالفُرْقَانِ، أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ أَنْتَ آخِذٌ بِنَاصِيَتِهِ، اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ الأَوَّلُ فَلَيْسَ قَبْلَكَ شَيْءٌ، وَأَنْتَ الآخِرُ فَلَيْسَ بَعْدَكَ شَيْءٌ، وَأَنْتَ الظَّاهِرُ فَلَيْسَ فَوْقَكَ شَيْءٌ، وَأَنْتَ البَاطِنُ فَلَيْسَ دُونَكَ شَيْءٌ، اقْضِ عَنِّي دَيْنِي وَأَغْنِنِي مِنَ الفَقْرِ.
O Allah, Lord of the heavens and the earth, Lord of all things, the One who splits the grain and the date stone, the Revealer of the Torah, the Gospel, and the Quran, I seek refuge in You from the evil of all things that You are seizing by the forelock. O Allah, You are the First, so there is nothing before You; You are the Last, so there is nothing after You; You are the显 (Most Apparent), so there is nothing above You; You are the Hidden, so there is nothing nearer than You. Settle my debt and enrich me from poverty.

Allahumma antal-Awwalu falaysa qablaka shay'un, antal-Akhiru falaysa ba'daka shay'un, wadh-Dhahiru falaysa fawqaka shay'un, wal-Batinu falaysa dunaka shay'un, iqdi 'anni dayni wa aghnini minal-faqr.
