Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Hammad, from Al Halby, from Abu Abdullah^asws having said: ‘You should exclaim <span class="iTxt">Takbeer</span>, then you should testify, then you should be saying, ‘We are from Allah^azwj and to Him^azwj we are returning. The Praise is for Allah^azwj, Lord^azwj of the worlds, Lord^azwj of the death and the life. Send Blessings upon Muhammad^azwj and the People^asws of His^azwj Household. O Allah^azwj! Recompense Muhammad^saww with the best of the Recompense due to what he^saww did with his^saww community, and due to what he^saww delivered from the Message of his^saww Lord^azwj’. Then you should be saying, ‘O Allah^azwj! (This here is) Your^azwj servant, a son of Your^azwj servant, a son of Your^azwj maid. His forehead is in Your^azwj Hands, having vacated from the world and is needy to Your^azwj Mercy, and You^azwj are Needless from Punishing him. O Allah^azwj! We do not know from him except for goodness and You^azwj are more Knowing with him. O Allah^azwj! If he was a good does, so Increase in his good deeds, and Accept from him; and if he was an evil doers, so Forgive his sins for him and be Merciful to him, and Overlook (his faults) from him by Your^azwj Mercy. O Allah^azwj! Attach him with Your^azwj Prophet^saww and Affirm him with the firm Words in the life of the world and in the Hereafter. O Allah^azwj! I ask You^azwj by us and by him, the Way of Guidance, and Guide us and him to Your^azwj Straight Path. O Allah^azwj! Your^azwj Forgiveness! Your^azwj Forgiveness!’ Then exclaim the second <span class="iTxt">Takbeer</span> and you should be saying the like of what you said, until you are free from five <span class="iTxt">Takbeer</span>s’.
