Morning adhkar: every dhikr, with a counter

The three Quls, three times

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ﴿قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ* اللَّهُ الصَّمَدُ* لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ* وَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُ كُفُواً أَحَدٌ﴾. بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ﴿قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ* مِن شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ* وَمِن شَرِّ غَاسِقٍ إِذَا وَقَبَ* وَمِن شَرِّ النَّفَّاثَاتِ فِي الْعُقَدِ* وَمِن شَرِّ حَاسِدٍ إِذَا حَسَدَ﴾. بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ﴿قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ النَّاسِ* مَلِكِ النَّاسِ* إِلَهِ النَّاسِ* مِن شَرِّ الْوَسْوَاسِ الْخَنَّاسِ* الَّذِي يُوَسْوِسُ فِي صُدُورِ النَّاسِ* مِنَ الْجِنَّةِ وَ النَّاسِ﴾ (ثلاثَ مرَّاتٍ).

Bismillahir-rahmanir-rahim. Qul huwallahu ahad. Allahus-samad. Lam yalid wa lam yulad. Wa lam yakun lahu kufuwan ahad. Bismillahir-rahmanir-rahim. Qul a‘udhu birabbil-falaq. Min sharri ma khalaq. Wa min sharri ghasiqin idha waqab. Wa min sharrin-naffathati fil-‘uqad. Wa min sharri hasidin idha hasad. Bismillahir-rahmanir-rahim. Qul a‘udhu birabbin-nas. Malikin-nas. Ilahin-nas. Min sharril-waswasil-khannas. Alladhi yuwaswisu fi sudurin-nas. Minal-jinnati wan-nas.

In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Ever-Merciful. Say: He is Allah, One. Allah, to whom everyone turns in need. He has no child, nor was He born of anyone. And there is no one like Him. In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Ever-Merciful. Say: I seek refuge with the Lord of the daybreak, from the harm of whatever He has created, from the harm of night when its darkness falls, from the harm of those who blow on knots, and from the harm of someone envious when he envies. In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Ever-Merciful. Say: I seek refuge with the Lord of mankind, the King of mankind, the God of mankind, from the harm of the sneaking whisperer, who whispers into the hearts of mankind, whether jinn or human.

Recite each three times, morning and evening. The Prophet ﷺ said they will be enough for you against everything.

Asbahna wa asbahal-mulku lillah

((أَصْبَحْنَا وَأَصْبَحَ الْمُلْكُ لِلَّهِ ، وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ، لاَ إِلَهَ إلاَّ اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لاَ شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ، رَبِّ أَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَ مَا فِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ وَخَيرَ مَا بَعْدَهُ ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا فِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ وَشَرِّ مَا بَعْدَهُ، رَبِّ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْكَسَلِ وَسُوءِ الْكِبَرِ، رَبِّ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ عَذَابٍ فِي النَّارِ وَعَذَابٍ فِي الْقَبْرِ)). [ وإذا أمسى قال: أمسينا وأمسى الملك للَّه] [وإذا أمسى قال: رب أسألك خير ما في هذه الليلة، وخير ما بعدها، وأعوذ بك من شر ما في هذه الليلة، وشر ما بعدها.]

Asbahna wa asbahal-mulku lillah, wal-hamdu lillah, la ilaha illallahu wahdahu la sharika lah, lahul-mulku wa lahul-hamdu wa huwa ‘ala kulli shay’in qadir. Rabbi as’aluka khayra ma fi hadhal-yawmi wa khayra ma ba‘dah, wa a‘udhu bika min sharri ma fi hadhal-yawmi wa sharri ma ba‘dah. Rabbi a‘udhu bika minal-kasali wa su’il-kibar. Rabbi a‘udhu bika min ‘adhabin fin-nari wa ‘adhabin fil-qabr.

Morning has come to us, and to Allah, all dominion. Praise be to Allah. There is no god but Allah, alone, with no partner. His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He has power over all things. My Lord, I ask You for what is good in this day and in what follows it, and I seek refuge with You from what is bad in this day and in what follows it. My Lord, I seek refuge with You from laziness and from the troubles of old age. My Lord, I seek refuge with You from torment in the Fire and torment in the grave.

In the evening, say instead “Amsayna wa amsal-mulku lillah” (evening has come to us, and to Allah, all dominion) and “Rabbi as’aluka khayra ma fi hadhihil-laylati wa khayra ma ba‘daha, wa a‘udhu bika min sharri ma fi hadhihil-laylati wa sharri ma ba‘daha” (what is good and bad in this night and in what follows it).

Allahumma bika asbahna

((اللَّهُمَّ بِكَ أَصْبَحْنَا، وَبِكَ أَمْسَيْنَا ، وَبِكَ نَحْيَا، وَبِكَ نَمُوتُ وَإِلَيْكَ النُّشُورُ)). [وإذا أمسى قال: اللَّهم بك أمسينا، وبك أصبحنا، وبك نحيا، وبك نموت، وإليك المصير.]

Allahumma bika asbahna, wa bika amsayna, wa bika nahya, wa bika namutu, wa ilaykan-nushur.

O Allah, by You we reach the morning and by You we reach the evening; by You we live and by You we die, and to You we will be raised.

In the evening, say instead “Allahumma bika amsayna, wa bika asbahna, wa bika nahya, wa bika namutu, wa ilaykal-masir” (…and to You is our return).

Sayyid al-istighfar

((اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ رَبِّي لَا إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ، خَلَقْتَنِي وَأَنَا عَبْدُكَ، وَأَنَا عَلَى عَهْدِكَ وَوَعْدِكَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُ، أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا صَنَعْتُ، أَبُوءُ لَكَ بِنِعْمَتِكَ عَلَيَّ، وَأَبُوءُ بِذَنْبِي فَاغْفِرْ لِي فَإِنَّهُ لاَ يَغْفِرُ الذُّنوبَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ)).

Allahumma anta rabbi la ilaha illa ant, khalaqtani wa ana ‘abduk, wa ana ‘ala ‘ahdika wa wa‘dika mastata‘t, a‘udhu bika min sharri ma sana‘t, abu’u laka bini‘matika ‘alayy, wa abu’u bidhanbi, faghfir li, fa innahu la yaghfirudh-dhunuba illa ant.

O Allah, You are my Lord; there is no god but You. You created me, and I am Your servant. I keep my covenant and my promise to You as far as I am able. I seek refuge with You from the harm of what I have done. I admit to You Your favours to me, and I admit my sin, so forgive me, for none forgives sins except You.

The Prophet ﷺ called it the best way of asking for forgiveness. He said that whoever says it in the day with firm belief and dies before evening is one of the people of Paradise, and whoever says it at night with firm belief and dies before morning is one of the people of Paradise.

Allahumma inni asbahtu ushhiduk

((اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَصْبَحْتُ أُشْهِدُكَ، وَأُشْهِدُ حَمَلَةَ عَرْشِكَ، وَمَلاَئِكَتِكَ، وَجَمِيعَ خَلْقِكَ، أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ اللَّهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ وَحْدَكَ لاَ شَرِيكَ لَكَ، وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّداً عَبْدُكَ وَرَسُولُكَ)) (أربعَ مَرَّاتٍ).[ وإذا أمسى قال: اللَّهم إني أمسيت...]

Allahumma inni asbahtu ushhiduk, wa ushhidu hamalata ‘arshik, wa mala’ikatak, wa jami‘a khalqik, annaka antallahu la ilaha illa anta wahdaka la sharika lak, wa anna Muhammadan ‘abduka wa rasuluk.

O Allah, this morning I call on You to witness, and I call on the bearers of Your Throne, Your angels and all Your creation to witness, that You are Allah; there is no god but You, alone, with no partner, and that Muhammad is Your servant and Your Messenger.

Four times. In the evening, say “Allahumma inni amsaytu…” (this evening…).

Allahumma ma asbaha bi min ni‘mah

((اللَّهُمَّ مَا أَصْبَحَ بِي مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ أَوْ بِأَحَدٍ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ فَمِنْكَ وَحْدَكَ لاَ شَرِيكَ لَكَ، فَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ وَلَكَ الشُّكْرُ)). [وإذا أمسى قال: اللَّهم ما أمسى بي...]

Allahumma ma asbaha bi min ni‘matin aw bi-ahadin min khalqik, faminka wahdaka la sharika lak, falakal-hamdu wa lakash-shukr.

O Allah, whatever blessing I or any of Your creation have this morning is from You alone, with no partner; so all praise and all thanks are Yours.

In the evening, say “Allahumma ma amsa bi…” (whatever blessing I have this evening…). The Prophet ﷺ said that whoever says it in the morning has given thanks for his day, and whoever says it in the evening has given thanks for his night.

Allahumma ‘afini fi badani

((اللَّهُمَّ عَافِنِي فِي بَدَنِي، اللَّهُمَّ عَافِنِي فِي سَمْعِي، اللَّهُمَّ عَافِنِي فِي بَصَرِي، لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ. اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْكُفْرِ، وَالفَقْرِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ عَذَابِ القَبْرِ، لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ)) (ثلاثَ مرَّاتٍ).

Allahumma ‘afini fi badani, Allahumma ‘afini fi sam‘i, Allahumma ‘afini fi basari, la ilaha illa ant. Allahumma inni a‘udhu bika minal-kufri wal-faqr, wa a‘udhu bika min ‘adhabil-qabr, la ilaha illa ant.

O Allah, keep my body well. O Allah, keep my hearing well. O Allah, keep my sight well. There is no god but You. O Allah, I seek refuge with You from disbelief and from poverty, and I seek refuge with You from the punishment of the grave. There is no god but You.

Three times.

Hasbiyallahu la ilaha illa huwa

((حَسْبِيَ اللَّهُ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ عَلَيهِ تَوَكَّلتُ وَهُوَ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ)) (سَبْعَ مَرّاتٍ).

Hasbiyallahu la ilaha illa huwa, ‘alayhi tawakkaltu, wa huwa rabbul-‘arshil-‘azim.

Allah is enough for me; there is no god but Him. In Him I put my trust, and He is the Lord of the mighty Throne.

Seven times.

Allahumma inni as’alukal-‘afwa wal-‘afiyah

((اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ الْعَفْوَ وَالْعَافِيَةَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالآخِرَةِ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ الْعَفْوَ وَالْعَافِيَةَ: فِي دِينِي وَدُنْيَايَ وَأَهْلِي، وَمَالِي، اللَّهُمَّ اسْتُرْ عَوْرَاتِي، وَآمِنْ رَوْعَاتِي، اللَّهُمَّ احْفَظْنِي مِنْ بَينِ يَدَيَّ، وَمِنْ خَلْفِي، وَعَنْ يَمِينِي، وَعَنْ شِمَالِي، وَمِنْ فَوْقِي، وَأَعُوذُ بِعَظَمَتِكَ أَنْ أُغْتَالَ مِنْ تَحْتِي)).

Allahumma inni as’alukal-‘afwa wal-‘afiyata fid-dunya wal-akhirah. Allahumma inni as’alukal-‘afwa wal-‘afiyata fi dini wa dunyaya wa ahli wa mali. Allahummastur ‘awrati, wa amin raw‘ati. Allahummahfazni min bayni yadayya, wa min khalfi, wa ‘an yamini, wa ‘an shimali, wa min fawqi, wa a‘udhu bi‘azamatika an ughtala min tahti.

O Allah, I ask You to forgive me and keep me safe in this life and the Hereafter. O Allah, I ask You to forgive me and keep me safe in my faith and my worldly affairs, my family and my property. O Allah, hide my faults and settle my fears. O Allah, guard me from in front and from behind, from my right and from my left, and from above; and I seek refuge in Your greatness from being taken unawares from below.

Allahumma ‘alimal-ghaybi wash-shahadah

((اللَّهُمَّ عَالِمَ الغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ فَاطِرَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ، رَبَّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَمَلِيكَهُ، أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ، أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ نَفْسِي، وَمِنْ شَرِّ الشَّيْطانِ وَشَرَكِهِ، وَأَنْ أَقْتَرِفَ عَلَى نَفْسِي سُوءاً، أَوْ أَجُرَّهُ إِلَى مُسْلِمٍ)).

Allahumma ‘alimal-ghaybi wash-shahadah, fatiras-samawati wal-ard, rabba kulli shay’in wa malikah, ashhadu an la ilaha illa ant, a‘udhu bika min sharri nafsi, wa min sharrish-shaytani wa sharakih, wa an aqtarifa ‘ala nafsi su’an aw ajurrahu ila muslim.

O Allah, who knows what is hidden and what is seen, Maker of the heavens and the earth, Lord and Master of everything: I bear witness that there is no god but You. I seek refuge with You from the harm in my own self, from the harm of the devil and his traps, and from bringing wrong on myself or passing it on to a Muslim.

Bismillahil-ladhi la yadurru

((بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الَّذِي لاَ يَضُرُّ مَعَ اسْمِهِ شَيْءٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلاَ فِي السّمَاءِ وَهُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ)) (ثلاثَ مرَّاتٍ).

Bismillahil-ladhi la yadurru ma‘asmihi shay’un fil-ardi wa la fis-sama’, wa huwas-sami‘ul-‘alim.

In the name of Allah, with whose name nothing on earth or in the heavens can cause harm, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.

Three times. The Prophet ﷺ said that nothing will harm whoever says it three times in the morning and three times in the evening.

Raditu billahi rabba

((رَضِيتُ بِاللَّهِ رَبَّاً، وَبِالْإِسْلاَمِ دِيناً، وَبِمُحَمَّدٍ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَبِيّاً)) (ثلاثَ مرَّاتٍ).

Raditu billahi rabba, wa bil-islami dina, wa bi-Muhammadin ﷺ nabiyya.

I am pleased with Allah as my Lord, with Islam as my religion and with Muhammad ﷺ as my Prophet.

Three times.

Asbahna wa asbahal-mulku lillahi rabbil-‘alamin

((أَصْبَحْنَا وَأَصْبَحَ الْمُلْكُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ، اللَّهُـمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَ هَذَا الْيَوْمِ:فَتْحَهُ، وَنَصْرَهُ، وَنورَهُ، وَبَرَكَتَهُ، وَهُدَاهُ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا فِيهِ وَشَرِّ مَا بَعْدَهُ)). [وإذا أمسى قال: أمسينا وأمسى الملك للَّه ربّ العالمين اللَّهم إني أسألك خير هذه الليلة: فتحها، ونصرها، ونورها، وبركتها، وهداها، وأعوذ بك من شر ما فيها، وشر ما بعدها.]

Asbahna wa asbahal-mulku lillahi rabbil-‘alamin. Allahumma inni as’aluka khayra hadhal-yawm: fathahu, wa nasrahu, wa nurahu, wa barakatahu, wa hudah, wa a‘udhu bika min sharri ma fihi wa sharri ma ba‘dah.

Morning has come to us, and to Allah, Lord of all the worlds, all dominion. O Allah, I ask You for what is good in this day: its victories and its help, its light, its blessing and its guidance; and I seek refuge with You from what is bad in it and in what follows it.

In the evening, say “Amsayna wa amsal-mulku lillahi rabbil-‘alamin. Allahumma inni as’aluka khayra hadhihil-laylah: fathaha, wa nasraha, wa nuraha, wa barakataha, wa hudaha, wa a‘udhu bika min sharri ma fiha wa sharri ma ba‘daha” (…what is good in this night…).

Subhanallahi wa bihamdih, a hundred times

((سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ)) (مائة مرَّةٍ).

Subhanallahi wa bihamdih.

Glory be to Allah, and praise be to Him.

A hundred times. The Prophet ﷺ said that no one will bring anything better on the Day of Resurrection than whoever says it a hundred times in the morning and in the evening, except someone who said the same or more.

La ilaha illallahu wahdahu, a hundred times

((لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ، وَحْدَهُ لاَ شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ)) (مائةَ مرَّةٍ إذا أصبحَ).

La ilaha illallahu wahdahu la sharika lah, lahul-mulku wa lahul-hamdu wa huwa ‘ala kulli shay’in qadir.

There is no god but Allah, alone, with no partner. His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He has power over all things.

A hundred times in the morning. The Prophet ﷺ said that whoever says it a hundred times in a day has the reward of freeing ten slaves; a hundred good deeds are written for him and a hundred bad deeds wiped away, and it protects him from the devil that day until evening.

Subhanallahi wa bihamdihi ‘adada khalqih

((سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ: عَدَدَ خَلْقِهِ، وَرِضَا نَفْسِهِ، وَزِنَةَ عَرْشِهِ، وَمِدَادَ كَلِمَاتِهِ)) (ثلاثَ مرَّاتٍ إذا أصبحَ).

Subhanallahi wa bihamdih: ‘adada khalqih, wa rida nafsih, wa zinata ‘arshih, wa midada kalimatih.

Glory be to Allah, and praise be to Him: as many times as the number of His creation, as much as pleases Him, as much as the weight of His Throne, and as much as the ink of His words.

Three times in the morning.

Allahumma inni as’aluka ‘ilman nafi‘a

((اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ عِلْماً نَافِعاً، وَرِزْقاً طَيِّباً، وَعَمَلاً مُتَقَبَّلاً)) (إذا أصبحَ).

Allahumma inni as’aluka ‘ilman nafi‘a, wa rizqan tayyiba, wa ‘amalan mutaqabbala.

O Allah, I ask You for knowledge that benefits, provision that is good and pure, and deeds that are accepted.

In the morning.

Astaghfirullaha wa atubu ilayh, a hundred times

((أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ)) (مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ فِي الْيَوْمِ).

Astaghfirullaha wa atubu ilayh.

I ask Allah’s forgiveness and I turn to Him in repentance.

A hundred times in the day.
