In the Name of God, the All-Merciful, the Most Compassionate.

اَللّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلى مُحَمَّد وَآلِ مُحَمَّد

O Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad.

اللّهُمّ افْتَحْ لِي فِيهِ أَبْوَابَ الجِنَانِ،

allahumma aftah li fihi abwaba aljinani

O Allah: on this day, (please) open for me the gates of the gardens of Paradise;

وَأَغْلِقْ عَنّي فِيهِ أَبْوَابَ النّيرَانِ،

wa aghliq `anni fihi abwaba alnnirani

And shut in my face the gates of Hellfire;

وَوَفّقْنِي فِيهِ لِتِلاوَةِ القُرْآنِ،

wa waffiqny fihi litilawati alqur’ani

And lead me to recite the Qur'an,

يَا مُنْزِلَ السّكِينَةِ فِي قُلُوبِ المُؤْمِنِينَ.

ya munzila alsskinati fi qulubi almu´minina

O He Who sends down tranquility in the hearts of the believers.
