The Whispered Prayer of those Asking for Mediation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the Name of God, the All-merciful,
the All-compassionate
1 My God,
I have no mediation with Thee
but the tender acts of Thy clemency,
nor any way to come to Thee
but the gentle favours of Thy mercy
and the intercession of Thy Prophet,
the prophet of mercy,
who rescued the community from confusion.
Make these two my tie to attaining Thy forgiveness
and let them take me to triumph through Thy good pleasure!
My hope has dismounted
in the sacred precinct of Thy generosity,
my craving has alighted
in the courtyard of Thy munificence.
So actualize my expectation from Thee,
seal my works with good,
and place me among Thy selected friends, those
whom Thou hast set down
in the midst of Thy Garden,
and settled in the abode of Thy honour,
whose eyes Thou hast gladdened
by gazing upon Thee
on the day of meeting Thee,
and whom Thou hast made heirs to
the sure stations in Thy neighbourhood!
2 O He
none more generous than whom is reached by the reachers
and none more merciful than whom is found by the aimers!
O Best of those with whom the lonely are alone,
O Tenderest of those with whom outcasts seek haven!
Toward the expanse of Thy pardon have I extended my hand,
upon the skirt of Thy generosity have I fastened my grasp!
Show me no deprivation
and afflict me not with disappointment and loss!
O Hearer of supplications!
O Most Merciful of the merciful!
