Dua' - Curing Ailments - Dua when ill- by Imam e Sajjad (a.s.)

1O God, to Thee belongs praise for the good health of my body which
lets me move about,أللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ عَلَى مَا لَمْ أَزَلْ
أَتَصَرَّفُ فِيهِ مِنْ سَلاَمَةِ بَدَنِي،1
2and to Thee belongs praise, for the ailments which Thou causest to
arise in my flesh!وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ عَلَى مَا أَحْدَثْتَ بِيْ مِنْ
عِلَّة فِي جَسَـدِي.2
3For I know not, my God, which of the two states deserves more my
thanking Theeفَمَا أَدْرِي يَـا إلهِي، أَيُّ الْحَالَيْنِ أَحَقُّ
بِالشُّكْرِ لَكَ،3
4and which of the two times is more worthy for my praise of
Thee:وَأَيُّ الْوَقْتَيْنِ أوْلَى بِالْحَمْدِ لَكَ،4
5the time of health, within which Thou makest me delight in the
agreeable things of Thy provision,أَوَقْتُ الصِّحَةِ الَّتِي
هَنَّـأْتَنِي فِيهَا طَيِّبَاتِ رِزْقِكَ،5
6through which Thou givest me the joy to seek the means to Thy good
pleasure and bounty,وَنَشَّطْتَنِي بِهَا لابْتِغاءِ مَرْضَاتِكَ
وَفَضْلِكَ،6
7and by which Thou strengthenest me for the acts of obedience which
Thou hast given me success to accomplish;وَقَوَّيْتَنِي مَعَهَا عَلَى
مَـا وَفَّقْتَنِي لَهُ مِنْ طَـاعَتِـكَ7
8or the time of illness through which Thou puttest me to the testأَمْ
وَقْتُ الْعِلَّةِ الَّتِي مَحَّصْتَنِي بِهَا،8
9and bestowest upon me favours:وَالنِّعَمِ الَّتِي أَتْحَفْتَنِي بِهَا9
10lightening of the offenses that weigh down my back,تَخْفِيفاً لِمَا
ثَقُلَ بِهِ عَلَى ظَهري مِنَ الْخَطِيئاتِ10
11purification of the evil deeds into which I have plunged,وَتَطْهيراً
لِمَا انْغَمَسْتُ فيهِ مِنَ السَّيِّئاتِ ،11
12incitement to reach for repentance, reminder of the erasure of
misdeeds through ancient favour;وَتَنْبِيهاً لِتَنَاوُلِ التَّوْبَةِ،
وَتَذْكِيراً لِمَحْوِ الْحَوْبَةِ بِقَدِيمِ النِّعْمَةِ،12
13and, through all that, what the two writers write for me:وَفِي
خِلاَلِ ذَلِكَ مَا كَتَبَ لِيَ الْكَاتِبَانِ13
14blameless acts, which no heart had thought,مِنْ زَكِيِّ الأعْمَالِ،
مَا لا قَلْبٌ فَكَّرَ فِيهِ،14
15no tongue had uttered, and no limb had undertaken, rather, as Thy
bestowal of bounty upon meوَلا لِسَانٌ نَطَقَ بِهِ وَلاَ جَارِحَةٌ
تَكَلَّفَتْهُ بَلْ إفْضَالاً مِنْكَ عَلَيَّ،15
16and the beneficence of Thy benefaction toward me.وَإحْسَاناً مِنْ
صَنِيعِـكَ إلَيَّ.16
17O God, bless Muhammad and his Household,أللَّهُمَّ فَصَلِّ عَلَى
مُحَمَّـد وَآلِـهِ17
18make me love what Thou hast approved for me,وَحَبِّبْ إلَيّ مَـا
رَضِيتَ لِي ،18
19make easy for me what Thou hast sent down upon me,وَيَسِّرْ لِي مَا
أَحْلَلْتَ بِيْ،19
20purify me of the defilement of what I have sent ahead,وَطَهِّرْنِي
مِنْ دَنَسِ مَا أَسْلَفْتُ ،20
21erase the evil of what I have done beforehand,وَامْحُ عَنِّي شَرَّ
مَا قَـدَّمْتُ،21
22let me find the sweetness of well-being, let me taste the coolness
of safety,وَأَوْجِدْنِي حَلاَوَةَ الْعَافِيَةِ ، وَأَذِقْنِي بَرْدَ
السَّلاَمَةِ22
23and appoint for me a way out from my illness to Thy pardon,وَاجْعَلْ
مَخْرَجِي عَنْ عِلَّتِي إلَى عَفْوِكَ،23
24transformation of my infirmity into Thy forbearance,وَمُتَحَوَّلِي
عَنْ صَرْعَتِي إلَى تَجَاوُزِكَ،24
25escape from my distress to Thy refreshment,وَخَلاصِي مِنْ كَرْبِي
إلَى رَوْحِكَ،25
26and safety from this hardship in Thy relief!وَسَلاَمَتِي مِنْ هَذِهِ
الشِّدَّةِ إلَى فَرَجِكَ،26
27Thou art gratuitously bountiful in beneficence,إنَّكَ الْمُتَفَضِّلُ
بِالإِحْسَانِ،27
28ever gracious in kindness, the Generous, the Giver,الْمُتَطَوِّلُ
بِالامْتِنَانِ، الْوَهَّابُ الْكَرِيمُ،28
29Possessor of majesty and munificence!ذُو الْجَلاَلِ وَالإكْرَامِ29
