Duaa of complaint.

Recommended Posts

Liqaye   

I was only able to get the english version:

 

My God,

to Thee I complain of a soul

commanding to evil,

rushing to offenses,

eager to disobey Thee,

and exposing itself to Thy anger.

It takes me on the roads of disasters,

it makes me the easiest of perishers before Thee;

many its pretexts,

drawn out its expectations;

when evil touches it,

it is anxious,

when good touches it,

grudging;

inclining to sport and diversion,

full of heedlessness and inattention,

it hurries me to misdeeds

and makes me delay repentance.

2 My God,

I complain to Thee

of an enemy who misguides me

and a satan who leads me astray.

He has filled my breast with tempting thoughts,

and his suggestions have encompassed my heart.

He supports caprice against me,

embellishes for me the love of this world,

and separates me from obedience and proximity!

3 My God,

to Thee I complain

of a heart that is hard,

turned this way and that by tempting thoughts,

clothed in rust and the seal,

and of an eye

too indifferent to weep in fear of Thee

and eagerly seeking that which gladdens it!

4 My God,

there is no force and no strength

except in Thy power,

and no deliverance for me from the detested things of this world

save through Thy preservation.

So I ask Thee

by Thy far-reaching wisdom

and Thy penetrating will

not to let me expose myself to other than Thy munificence

and not to turn me into a target for trials!

Be for me

a helper against enemies,

a coverer of shameful things and faults,

a protector against afflictions,

a preserver against acts of disobedience!

By Thy clemency and mercy,

O Most Merciful of the merciful!
