Our Lord, do not cause [our hearts] to deviate, from orienting [themselves] towards Your Side and hastening to seek Your encounter and to stand by Your gate, by the temptation of the love of this world and the overpowering of caprice and the inclining towards the soul and its attributes and to stand content with its shares and its pleasures, after You have guided us, by Your light to Your straight path and the upright religion, and by the glories of Your face to Your glorious beauty, and give us from You a mercy, from Your Merciful Name (raḥīmiyya), that will efface our attributes through Your attributes and our darknesses by Your lights. You indeed are the Bestower.
