AL-MUSABBA`ATUL `ASHRI (THE TEN SEVEN-FOLD PRAYER)

AL-MUSABBA`ATUL `ASHRI (THE SEVEN-FOLD PRAYER)

{From the Ahzab & Awrad of Shaykh Ahmad al-Tijani}

Translation, Transliteration & Introduction facilitated by: Imam Hassan Cisse ("African American Islam Institute (AAII)")

Introduction

Musabba`atul `Ashri gives the beginner secret lights and the one who is far along in his travels, divine lights, and Allah will open up for him the doors of Khayraat (goodness/blessings) and increase him in it.

Allah will extinguish the heart of the desires of the Nafs (Lower Self), and will provide blessings in his deen and in his daily life and in the hereafter. Allah will cause blessed lights to enter the body and beautify it.

This du`a enriches the one who reads it and causes ease to come when difficulty is at hand, and it removes harm and protects against evil ones, the envious ones, and against Shaytan.

This du`a contains the "Ism al-`Azam (The Greatest Name [of Allah])" and the reading of it causes any eye which fall upon you to like you. And if Allah is asked by this du`a, Allah gives it to you. Its uses are many, and Allah knows best.

May Allah bless those Students who are constant in their work.

Ameen thumma Ameen!!!

MUSABBA`AATUL `ASHRI (THE SEVEN-FOLD PRAYER)

Intention (Niyyah);

Allahumma innee nawaytu an ataqarraba ilaika, bi-tilawwati musabba`aatul `ashri, biniyyati ta`abudi-llahi ta`alaa, wa bi-niyyati tahasuni bihaa, wa bi-niyyati tah-seeli jamee`i maa lahaa minal khawaasi, wal karaamaati, wal khayraati, wal barakaati, wal futuuhaati fee deeni wa dunyaa wal aakhirati. Innaka `alaa kulli shay'in qadeer!!!

Oh Allah! I intend to move closer to you, with the recitation of musabba`aatul `ashri (the seven-fold prayer), with the intention of worshipping Almighty God, and with the intention of seeking fortitude therefrom, and with the intention of achieving all things, from the special (divine benevolence) and charismatic (divine gifts) and goodness and blessings and divide gnosis (experiential knowledge of Allah)...in the religion and the world and in the hereafter. Verily, You (Allah) have Power/Control over all things!!!

Then recite the below surahs (Qur'an Chapters) seven times each:

Sura Fatiha:

Bismi-llahir Rahmanir Raheem.

Al Hamdu li-llahir Rabbil `Alameen.

Ar Rahmanir Raheem.

Maliki yaumid deen.

Iyyaka na`budu wa iyyaka nasta`een.

Ihdinas siratal mustaqeem.

Siratal lazeena an`amta alayhim,

ghayril maghdoobi `alayhim,

wa lad daaleen. Ameen

Sura Qul a`oozu bi Rabbin Nas:

Bismi-llahir Rahmanir Raheem

Qul 'a'oodzu bi Rabbin-naas

Malikin-naas

'Illahin-naas

Min sharril-waswassil khanaas

'Allazee yuwaswisu fee sudurin naas

Minal jinnati wan-naas.

Sura Qul a`oozu bi Rabbil Falaq:

Bismi-llahir Rahmanir Raheem

Qul 'a'oozu bi Rabbil falaq

Min-sharri maa khalaq

Wa min sharri ghasiqin izaa waqab

Wa min sharrin naffaathati fil u'qad

Wa min sharri haasidin 'izaa hasad.

Sura Qul Huw-Allahu Ahad (Ikhlas):

Bismi-llahir Rahmanir Raheem

Qul Huw-Allahu Ahad

Allahus-Samad

Lam yalid wa lam yoolad

Wa lam yakul-lahoo kufuwan Ahad.

Sura Qul ya Ayyuha l-Kafirun:

Bismi-llahir Rahmanir Raheem

Qul yaa ayuhal kaafiruun

Laa a'budu maa ta'budoon

Wa laa antum a'abidoona ma a'bud

Wa laa ana ''aabidum maa abadttum

Wa laa antum 'aabidoona maa a'bud

Lakum deenakum waliya deen.

Ayyatul Kursi: (seven times):

"Allahu la ilaha illa huwal Hayyul Qayyuum;

La ta`khudhu-hoo sinatun wa la naum;

Lahoo ma fi samaawaati wa ma fil ard;

Mandha-lladhi yashfa`u `inda-hoo illa bi idhni-hee;

Ya`lamu ma baina aidihim wa ma khalfahum,

Wa la yuhitoona bi shai'in min `ilmihi illla bi maa sha'a;

Wasi`a kurseeyuhu samaawaati wal ard;

Wa la ya`ooduhu hifzu huma wa huwal `Aliyyul `Azeem."

"Allah is He besides who there is no God, The Ever-Living, The Self-Subsisting, by whom all things subsist;

Slumber does not overtake Him nor sleep;

Whatever is in the heavens, and whatever is in the earth, is His;

Who is he that can intercede with Him but by His Permission?

He knows what is before them and what is behind them

And they cannot comprehend anything out of His knowledge, except what He pleases;

His Knowledge extends over the heavens and the earth;

And the preservation of them both tires Him not,

And He is The Most High, The Great."

Ameen!

Then say seven times:

Subhaana-llahi, wal hamdu li-llahi, wa la ilaha illa-llahu wal-llahu Akbar, wa la haula wa la quwwata illa bi-llahil `aliyyil `azeem. `Adada maa

`alima wa mil'a maa `alima wa zinata maa `alima.

Glory be to Allah, and Praise be to Allah, and There is no god but Allah, and Allah is the Greatest, and there is no might and no power except by Allah the Most High, the Most Magnified. By the number of what Allah knows, the full (extent) of what Allah knows, and the weight of what Allah knows.

Then say seven times:

Allahumma salli `alaa Sayyidinaa Muhammadin `abdika, wa Nabiyyika, wa Rasuulika an-Nabiyyil Ummiyyi, wa `alaa aalihi wa sahbihi wa sallama tasleeman.

Oh Allah! Shower thy blessings on our master Muhammad your servant, and your Prophet, and your messenger the unlettered Prophet, and on his family and his companions peace and security.

Then say seven times:

Allahumma ighfirlee, wa li-walidayya, wa lil mumineena, wal muminaati, wal muslimeena, wal muslimaatil ahya'i minhum wal amwaati.

Oh Allah! Forgive me, and my parents, and the believing men, and the believing women, and the Muslim men, and the Muslim women, the alive of them, and the dead.

Then say seven times:

Allahumma -if`al bee wa bihim `aajilan wa aajilan, fee d-deeni wa d-dunyaa, wal aakhirati maa inta lahu ihlun, wa laa taf`al binaa, wa bihim yaa maulaanaa maa nahnu lahu ihlun. Innaka Ghafuurun Haleemun Jawwaadun Kareemun Ra`uufun Raheem.

Oh Allah! Do with us in our situations, the sooner and the later, concerning (in) the religion and the worldly things (life), and the hereafter what (Allah) deserves to do, and don't do to us and to all those we have prayed for what we deserve, but we are asking you to do to us what you deserve to do. Surely you are Forgiving, Clement, Liberal, Generous, Compassionate, Beneficent.

Read this afterwards, three times:

Allahumma bi nurika ihtadaytu, wa bi fadlika asta`amtu, wa bika l asbahtu, wa amsaytu dhunubi kathiratun bayna yadayka astaghfiru-llaha wa atubu ilayka, ya hannanu ya manaanu as'alukal amna wal amaanu min zawaalil imaani wal `afuu `amma madaa wa kaana bi Rahmatika ya Arhama Rahimeen.

Then say:

Ya Rabbahu (3times)
Ya Jabbaru (21times)

Then say once (1):

Allahumma , inni a`uudhu bika min sharril fadeehatayni wa zulmatil `aynayni bi hurmati jaddi al hasnayni wa salla-llahu `alaa Sayyidinaa Muhammadin wa `alaa aalihi wa sallim.

You read in the morning and evening as a wird.

May Allah bless those Students who are constant in their work.

Ameen thumma Ameen!!!
