وَ كَانَ مِنْ دُعَائِهِ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ إِذَا عَرَضَتْ لَهُ مُهِمَّةٌ أَوْ نَزَلَتْ بِهِ ، مُلِمَّةٌ وَ عِنْدَ الْكَرْبِ
His Supplication when Faced with a Worrisome Task or when Misfortune Descended and at the Time of Distress
يَا مَنْ تُحَلُّ بِهِ عُقَدُ الْمَكَارِهِ ، وَ يَا مَنْ يَفْثَأُ بِهِ حَدُّ الشَّدَائِدِ ، وَ يَا مَنْ يُلْتَمَسُ مِنْهُ الْمَخْرَجُ إِلَى رَوْحِ الْفَرَجِ .
O He through whom the knots of detested things are untied! O He through whom the cutting edge of hardships is blunted! O He from whom is begged the outlet to the freshness of relief!
ذَلَّتْ لِقُدْرَتِكَ الصِّعَابُ ، وَ تَسَبَّبَتْ بِلُطْفِكَ الْأَسْبَابُ ، وَ جَرَى بِقُدرَتِكَ الْقَضَاءُ ، وَ مَضَتْ عَلَى إِرَادَتِكَ الْأَشْيَاءُ .
Intractable affairs yield to Thy power, means are made ready by Thy gentleness, the decree goes into effect through Thy power, and all things proceed according to Thy desire.
فَهِيَ بِمَشِيَّتِكَ دُونَ قَوْلِكَ مُؤْتَمِرَةٌ ، وَ بِإِرَادَتِكَ دُونَ نَهْيِكَ مُنْزَجِرَةٌ .
By Thy desire they follow Thy command without Thy word and by Thy will they obey Thy bans without Thy prohibition.
أَنْتَ الْمَدْعُوُّ لِلْمُهِمَّاتِ ، وَ أَنْتَ الْمَفْزَعُ فِي الْمُلِمَّاتِ ، لَا يَنْدَفِعُ مِنْهَا إِلَّا مَا دَفَعْتَ ، وَ لَا يَنْكَشِفُ مِنْهَا إِلَّا مَا كَشَفْتَ.
Thou art the supplicated in worries and the place of flight in misfortunes; none of them is repelled unless Thou repellest, none is removed unless Thou removest.
وَ قَدْ نَزَلَ بِي يَا رَبِّ مَا قَدْ تَكَأَّدَنِي ثِقْلُهُ ، وَ أَلَمَّ بِي مَا قَدْ بَهَظَنِي حَمْلُهُ .
Upon me has come down, My Lord, something whose weight burdens me and upon me has fallen something whose carrying oppresses me.
وَ بِقُدْرَتِكَ أَوْرَدْتَهُ عَلَيَّ وَ بِسُلْطَانِكَ وَجَّهْتَهُ إِلَيَّ .
Through Thy power Thou hast brought it down upon me and through Thy authority Thou hast turned it toward me.
فَلَا مُصْدِرَ لِمَا أَوْرَدْتَ ، وَ لَا صَارِفَ لِمَا وَجَّهْتَ ، وَ لَا فَاتِحَ لِمَا أَغْلَقْتَ ، وَ لَا مُغْلِقَ لِمَا فَتَحْتَ ، وَ لَا مُيَسِّرَ لِمَا عَسَّرْتَ ، وَ لَا نَاصِرَ لِمَنْ خَذَلْتَ .
None can send away what Thou hast brought, none can deflect what Thou hast turned, none can open what Thou hast closed, none can close what Thou hast opened, none can make easy what Thou hast made difficult, none can help him whom Thou hast abandoned.
فَصَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ ، وَ افْتَحْ لِي يَا رَبِّ بَابَ الْفَرَجِ بِطَوْلِكَ ، وَ اكْسِرْ عَنِّي سُلْطَانَ الْهَمِّ بِحَوْلِكَ ، وَ أَنِلْنِي حُسْنَ النَّظَرِ فِيمَا شَكَوْتُ ، وَ أَذِقْنِي حَلَاوَةَ الصُّنْعِ فِيمَا سَأَلْتُ ، وَ هَبْ لِي مِنْ لَدُنْكَ رَحْمَةً وَ فَرَجاً هَنِيئاً ، وَ اجْعَلْ لِي مِنْ عِنْدِكَ مَخْرَجاً وَحِيّاً .
So bless Muhammad and his Household, open for me, my Lord, the door of relief through Thy graciousness, break from me the authority of worry by Thy strength, confer the beauty of Thy gaze upon my complaint, let me taste the sweetness of benefaction in what I ask, give me from Thyself mercy and wholesome relief, and appoint for me from Thyself a quick way out!
وَ لَا تَشْغَلْنِي بِالِاهْتِمَامِ عَنْ تَعَاهُدِ فُرُوضِكَ ، وَ اسْتِعْمَالِ سُنَّتِكَ .
Distract me not through worry from observing Thy obligations and acting in accordance with Thy prescriptions.
فَقَدْ ضِقْتُ لِمَا نَزَلَ بِي يَا رَبِّ ذَرْعاً ، وَ امْتَلَأْتُ بِحَمْلِ مَا حَدَثَ عَلَيَّ هَمّاً ، وَ أَنْتَ الْقَادِرُ عَلَى كَشْفِ مَا مُنِيتُ بِهِ ، وَ دَفْعِ مَا وَقَعْتُ فِيهِ ، فَافْعَلْ بِي ذَلِكَ وَ إِنْ لَمْ أَسْتَوْجِبْهُ مِنْكَ ، يَا ذَا الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ.
My capacity has been straitened, my Lord, by what has come down on me, and I am filled with worry by carrying what has happened to me, while Thou hast power to remove what has afflicted me and to repel that into which I have fallen. So do that for me though I merit it not from Thee, O Possessor of the Mighty Throne!
