ةعفان لا ةيعدلاا

“Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest, Allah is
the Greatest. Oh Allah! We ask You on this our journey
for goodness and piety, and for works that are pleasing
to You. Oh Allah lighten this journey for us and make
its distance easy for us. Oh Allah You are our
companion on the road and the One in Whose care we
leave our family. Oh Allah, I seek refuge in You from
this journeys hardships, and from the wicked sights in
store and from finding our family and property in
misfortune upon returning.”
