اللّهُ لاَ إِلَـهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ الْحَيُّ الْقَيُّومُ لاَ تَأْخُذُهُ
سِنَةٌ وَلاَنَوْمٌ لَّهُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِوَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ مَن
ذَا الَّذِي يَشْفَعُ عِندَهُ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِهِ يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ
أَيْدِيهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ وَلاَ يُحِيطُونَ بِشَيْءٍ مِّنْ عِلْمِهِ
إِلاَّ بِمَا شَاءَ وَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ وَلاَ

you, I lean on you, desire yourboons and fear you as there is no other
salvation besides you. I believe in the kitab (Book) you have
