Transliteration:
La ilaha illallahul Halimul Karim, subhanallahi Rabbil ‘arshil ‘azim. Alhamdu lillahi Rabbil ‘alamin. As’aluka mujibati rahmatika wa ‘aza’ima maghfiratika, wal ghanimata min kulli birrin was- salamata min kulli ithm. La tada‘ li dhamban illa ghafartahu wa la hamman illa farrajtahu wa la hajatan hiya laka ridan illa qadaitaha ya Arhamar- Rahimin.
Translation:
There is none worthy of worship except Allah. He is the Compassionate, the Kind. Allah is free of all blemishes and holds the great Heavenly Throne. All praise belongs to Allah alone, Lord of the worlds. Lord! I seek from Thee the instruments of Thy Mercy and the ways and means of Thy forgiveness. I implore Thee to grant me abundantly from Thy virtue and I beg Thee to keep me away from every sin. O Most Merciful God! Eliminate all my sins by forgiving them, and all my grief by dispelling it, and fulfil all my needs which Thou art pleased with.
