Prayers and Meditations — Paragraph 578

Source (Arabic)

ْلِ ما كُنْتَ فِي أَزَلِ الآزالِ، عَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَإِلَيْكَ تَوَجَّهْتُ وَبِحَبْلِ عُطُوفَتِكَ تَمَسَّكْتُ وَإِلى ظِلِّ رَحْمَتِكَ سَرُعْتُ لا تَطْرُدْنِي يا إِلهِي عَنْ بابِكَ خائِبًا وَلا تَمْنَعْنِي عَنْ فَضْلِكَ لأنِّي كُنْتُ راجِيًا، لا إِلهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ الغَفُورُ

Translation

In Thee I have placed my whole confidence, unto Thee I have turned my face, to the cord of Thy loving providence I have clung, and towards the shadow of Thy mercy I have hastened. Cast me not as one disappointed out of Thy door, O my God, and withhold not from me Thy grace, for Thee alone do I seek. No God is there beside Thee, the Ever-Forgiving, the Most Bountiful.
