Sahifa Imam Baqir (as) - Section 2
اَللّٰهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ بِمَحَامِدِكَ كُلِّهَا
Allāhumma laka al‑ḥamdu bi‑maḥāmidika kullihā
O Allah, to You belongs all praise — with all Your forms of praise.
عَلَى جَمِيعِ نِعَمِكَ كُلِّهَا
ʿAlā jamīʿi niʿamika kullihā
For all Your blessings — entirely.
حَتَّى يَنْتَهِيَ الْحَمْدُ إِلَى مَا تُحِبُّ رَبَّنَا وَتَرْضَىٰ
Ḥattā yantahī al‑ḥamdu ilā mā tuḥibbu rabbanā wa tarḍā
Until praise reaches that which You love, our Lord, and are pleased with.
اَللّٰهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَ مَا أَرْجُو
Allāhumma innī asʾaluka khayra mā arjū
O Allah, I ask You for the good of what I hope for.
وَخَيْرَ مَا لَا أَرْجُو
Wa khayra mā lā arjū
And the good of what I do not hope for.
وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا أَحْذَرُ
Wa aʿūdhu bika min sharri mā aḥdhar
And I seek refuge in You from the evil of what I fear.
وَمِنْ شَرِّ مَا لَا أَحْذَرُ
Wa min sharri mā lā aḥdhar
And from the evil of what I do not fear.
اَللّٰهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ كَثِيرًا طَيِّبًا مُبَارَكًا فِيهِ
Allāhumma laka al‑ḥamdu kathīran ṭayyiban mubārakan fīh
O Allah, to You belongs abundant praise, pure and blessed within it.
كَمَا يَنْبَغِي لَكَ أَنْ تُحْمَدَ
Kamā yanbaghī laka an tuḥmad
As is fitting that You be praised.
وَكَمَا يَنْبَغِي لِكَرَمِ وَجْهِكَ وَعِزِّ جَلَالِكَ
Wa kamā yanbaghī li‑karami wajhika wa ʿizzi jalālik
And as is befitting the nobility of Your Face and the might of Your Majesty.
الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَنْجَى بِي الْيَوْمَ نَسَمَةً مِنَ النَّارِ
Al‑ḥamdu lillāhi alladhī anjā bī al‑yawma nasamatan mina an‑nār
All praise belongs to Allah — who has saved through me today a soul from the Fire.
الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ مُحَيِّثِ الْحَيْثِ، وَمُكَيِّفِ الْكَيْفِ، وَمُؤَيِّنِ الْأَيْنِ
Al‑ḥamdu lillāhi muḥayyithi al‑ḥayth, wa mukayyifi al‑kayf, wa muʾayyini al‑ayn
All praise belongs to Allah — the One who determines the “where,” defines the “how,” and assigns the “place.”
الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي لَا تَأْخُذُهُ سِنَةٌ وَلَا نَوْمٌ
Al‑ḥamdu lillāhi alladhī lā taʾkhudhuhu sinatun wa lā nawm
All praise belongs to Allah — the One whom neither drowsiness overtakes nor sleep.
لَهُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ
Lahu mā fī as‑samāwāti wa mā fī al‑arḍ
To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth.
مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يَشْفَعُ عِنْدَهُ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ
Man dhā alladhī yashfaʿu ʿindahu illā bi‑idhnih
Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission?
يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ
Yaʿlamu mā bayna aydīhim wa mā khalfahum
He knows what is before them and what is behind them.
وَلَا يُحِيطُونَ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ عِلْمِهِ إِلَّا بِمَا شَاءَ
Wa lā yuḥīṭūna bi‑shayʾin min ʿilmihi illā bi‑mā shāʾ
They do not encompass anything of His knowledge except what He wills.
وَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ
Wasiʿa kursiyyuhu as‑samāwāti wa al‑arḍ
His Kursī extends over the heavens and the earth.
وَلَا يَؤُودُهُ حِفْظُهُمَا
Wa lā yaʾūduhu ḥifẓuhumā
Preserving them does not burden Him.
وَهُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيمُ
Wa huwa al‑ʿaliyyu al‑ʿaẓīm
And He is the Most High, the Magnificent.
