Qad kafani Ilmu Rabbi
Al-Habib Abdullah Bin Alwi Alhaddad
My Lords knowledge has sufficed me from asking or choosing
For my dua and my agonising supplication
is a witness to my poverty
For this secret (reason) I make supplication
in times of ease and times of difficulty
I am a slave whose pride
is in his poverty and obligation
O my Lord and my King
You know my state
And what has settled in my heart
of agonies and preoccupations
Save me with a gentleness
from You, O Lord of Lords
Oh save me, Most Generous
before I run out of patience (with myself)
O One who is swift in sending aid
I ask for aid that will arrive to me swiftly
It will defeat all difficulty
and it will bring all that I hope for
O Near One Who answers
and All-Knowing and All-Hearing
I have attained realization through my incapacity
my submission and my brokenness
I am still standing by the door, so please my Lord
have mercy on my standing
And in the valley of generosity, I am in itikaf (solitary
So, (retreat) Allah, make my retreat here permanent And Im abiding by good opinion (of You)
