AlAnoud Writes

I seek refuge بِرَبِّ ٱلۡفَلَقِ , the Splitter of dawn,

The ٱلنُّور tearing night where fear had drawn.

With ٱلۡمُبۡدِئ, bringing all from start,

And ٱلۡخَٰلِق knowing every hidden part .

From harm within what ٱلۡبَارِئ shaped,

From paths where even good feels scraped.

From night when ٱلۡقَابِض lets darkness close,

Till ٱلۡبَاسِط spreads what morning knows.

From whispered knots and silent breath,

Where harm is worked without a threat

But ٱللَّطِيف sees what hands conceal,

And ٱلۡحَكِيم undoes what words make real.

From envy when the heart turns tight,

Against ٱلۡوَهَّاب and gifted light.

where ٱلۡعَدۡل balance stays,

Let ٱلۡحَفِيظ guards me through all days.

I return, when all seems torn,

To ٱلسَّلَام,

to رَب الفَلَق.

قُلۡ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ ٱلۡفَلَقِ (1) مِن شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ (2)وَمِن شَرِّ غَاسِقٍ إِذَا وَقَبَ (3) وَمِن شَرِّ ٱلنَّفَّٰثَٰتِ فِي ٱلۡعُقَدِ (4) وَمِن شَرِّ حَاسِدٍ إِذَا حَسَدَ (5)
