In the name of Allah, the most Compassionate
and Merciful.
Praise be to Allah, Lord of all the worlds.
The Compassionate, the Merciful. Ruler on the
Day of Reckoning.
You alone do we worship, and You alone do we
ask for help.
Guide us on the straight path, the path of those
who have
received your grace; not the path of those who
have brought
down wrath, nor of those who wander astray.
Amen.

Ayatul
Kursi (The throne) [Surah al-Baqarah 2:
255]
Allahu la ilaha illa Huwa, Al-Haiyul-Qaiyum
La ta'khudhuhu sinatun wa la nawm, lahu ma fis-samawati
wa ma fil-'ard Man dhal-ladhi yashfa'u 'indahu
illa bi-idhnihi Ya'lamu ma baina aidihim wa
ma khalfahum, wa la yuhituna bi shai'im-min
'ilmihi illa bima sha'a Wasi'a kursiyuhus-samawati
wal ard, wa la ya'uduhu hifdhuhuma Wa Huwal
'Aliyul-Adheem
"Allah!
There is no god but He - the Living, The Self-subsisting,
Eternal. No slumber can seize Him Nor Sleep.
His are all things In the heavens and on earth.
Who is there can intercede In His presence except
As he permitteth? He knoweth What (appeareth
to His creatures As) Before or After or Behind
them. Nor shall they compass Aught of his knowledge
Except as He willeth. His throne doth extend
Over the heavens And on earth, and He feeleth
No fatigue in guarding And preserving them,
For He is the Most High. The Supreme (in glory)."
