Dua on the 22nd night of Ramaḍān

يَا سَالِخَ ٱلنَّهَارِ مِنَ ٱللَّيْلِ فَإِذَا نَحْنُ مُظْلِمُوْنَ
ya salikha alnnahari min allayli fa’idha nahnu mu¨limuna

O He Who draws forth daylight from night, and we are then in the dark,
وَ مُجْرِيَ الشَّمْسِ لِمُسْتَقَرِّهَا بِتَقْدِيْرِكَ يَا عَزِيْزُ يَا عَلِيْمُ
wa mujriya alshshamsi limustaqarriha bitaqdirika ya `azizu ya `alimu

Who causes the sun to run on to a term appointed for it; that is the ordinance of You, O Mighty, O Knowing,
وَ مُقَدِّرَ الْقَمَرِ مَنَازِلَ حَتَّى عَادَ كَالْعُرْجُوْنِ الْقَدِيْمِ
wa muqaddira alqamari manazila hatta `ada kal`urjuni alqadimi

and Who ordained for the moon stages until it becomes again as an old dry palm branch!
يَا نُوْرَ كُلِّ نُوْرٍ
ya nura kulli nurin

O Light of every light!
وَمُنْتَهَىٰ كُلِّ رَغْبَةٍ

O ultimate goal of all desires!
وَوَلِيَّ كُلِّ نِعْمَةٍ
wa waliyya kulli ni`matin

O Source of all graces!
يَا اللّٰهُ يَا رَحْمَانُ يَا اللّٰهُ يَا قُدُّوسُ
ya allahu ya rahmanu ya allahu ya quddusu

O Allah! O All-beneficent! O Allah! O Holy!
يَا اَحَدُ يَا وَاحِدُ يَا فَرْدُ
ya ahadu ya wahidu ya fardu

O One and Only! O One! O Single!
يَا اللّٰهُ يَا اللّٰهُ يَا اللّٰهُ
ya allahu ya allahu ya allahu

O Allah! O Allah! O Allah!

wa isa’ati maghfuratan

decide my offense to be forgiven,
وَ اَنْ تَهَبَ لِي يَقِيْنًا تُبَاشِرُ بِهِ قَلْبِي
wa an tahaba li yaqinan tubashiru bihi qalbi

grant me certitude that fills in my heart
وَ اِيْمَانًا يُذْهِبُ الشَّكَّ عَنِّي
wa imanan yudhhibu alshshakka `anni

and faith that removes doubt from me,
وَ تُرْضِيَنِي بِمَا قَسَمْتَ لِي
wa turdiyani bima qasamta li

make me feel satisfied with that which You decide for me,
وَآتِنَا فِي ٱلدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً

grant us reward in this world
وَفِي ٱلآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً

وَالْإِنَابَةَ وَالتَّوْفِيْقَ لِمَا وَفَّقْتَ لَهُ مُحَمَّدًا وَآلَ مُحَمَّدٍ عَلَيْهِ وَعَلَيْهِمُ السَّلَامُ
wal-inabata walttawfiqa lima waffaqta lahu muhammadan wa ala muhammadin `alayhi wa `alayhim alssalamu

turning to You, and success to that to which You led Muhammad and the Household of Muhammad, peace be upon him and them.
