اَللَّهُمَّ إِِنِّي اشْهَدُ انَّهُ وَلِيُّكَ وَٱبْنُ وَلِيِّكَ
O Allah, I do bear witness that he is verily Your intimate servant and son of Your intimate servant,
وَصَفِيُّكَ وَٱبْنُ صَفِيِّكَ

ٱلْفَائِزُ بِكَرَامَتِكَ

You have honored him with martyrdom,
وَحَبَوْتَهُ بِٱلسَّعَادَةِ
endued him with happiness,

وَقَائِداً مِنَ ٱلْقَادَةِ
one of the leaders,

gave him the inheritances of the Prophets,
وَجَعَلْتَهُ حُجَّةً عَلَىٰ خَلْقِكَ مِنَ ٱلاوْصِيَاءِ
and chose him as argument against Your created beings and one of the Prophets’ successors.
فَاعْذَرَ فِي ٱلدُّعَاءِ
So, he called to you flawlessly,
وَمَنَحَ ٱلنُّصْحَ
gave advices,
وَبَذَلَ مُهْجَتَهُ فِيكَ
and sacrificed his soul for You
لِيَسْتَنْقِذَ عِبَادَكَ مِنَ ٱلْجَهَالَةِ
to save Your servants from ignorance
وَحَيْرَةِ ٱلضَّلاَلَةِ
and perplexity of straying off.
وَقَدْ تَوَازَرَ عَلَيْهِ مَنْ غَرَّتْهُ ٱلدُّنْيَا
Yet, those whom were seduced by this worldly life,
وَبَاعَ حَظَّهُ بِٱلارْذَلِ ٱلادْنَىٰ
who sold their share (of reward) with the lowliest and meanest,
وَشَرَىٰ آخِرَتَهُ بِٱلثَّمَنِ ٱلاوْكَسِ
retailed their Hereafter with the cheapest price,
وَتَغَطْرَسَ وَتَرَدَّىٰ فِي هَوَاهُ
acted haughtily, perished because of following their desires,
وَاسْخَطَكَ وَاسْخَطَ نَبِيَّكَ
brought to themselves Your wrath and the wrath of Your Prophet,
وَاطَاعَ مِنْ عِبَادِكَ اهْلَ ٱلشِّقَاقِ وَٱلنِّفَاقِ
and obeyed the dissident and hypocritical servants of You
وَحَمَلَةَ ٱلاوْزَارِ ٱلْمُسْتَوْجِبِينَ ٱلنَّارَ
and the bearers of the burdens (of sins) who deserve Hellfire—all those supported each other against him.
فَجَاهَدَهُمْ فِيكَ صَابِراً مُحْتَسِباً
However, he fought against them painstakingly with steadfastness expecting Your reward
حَتَّىٰ سُفِكَ فِي طَاعَتِكَ دَمُهُ
until his blood was shed on account of his obedience to You
وَٱسْتُبِيحَ حَرِيـمُهُ
and his women were violated.
اَللَّهُمَّ فَٱلْعَنْهُمْ لَعْناً وَبيلاًَ
So, O Allah, pour heavy curses on them
وَعَذِّبْهُمْ عَذَاباً الِيماً
and chastise them with painful chastisement.

and died missed, wronged, and martyred.
وَاشْهَدُ انَّ ٱللَّهَ مُنْجِزٌ مَا وَعَدَكَ
I also bear witness that Allah shall inevitably fulfill His promise to You,
وَمُهْلِكٌ مَنْ خَذَلَكَ
exterminate those who disappointed you,
وَمُعَذِّبٌ مَنْ قَتَلَكَ
and chastise those who slew you.
وَاشْهَدُ انَّكَ وَفَيْتَ بِعَهْدِ ٱللَّهِ
I also bear witness that you fulfilled your pledge to Allah
وَجَاهَدْتَ فِي سَبِيلِهِ حَتَّىٰ اتَاكَ ٱلْيَقِينُ
and strove hard in His way until death came upon you.

اَللَّهُمَّ إِِنِّي اشْهِدُكَ انِّي وَلِيٌّ لِمَنْ وَالاَهُ
O Allah, I do ask You to witness for me that I am loyalist to those who are loyalists to him
وَعَدُوٌّ لِمَنْ عَادَاهُ

وَٱلارْحَامِ ٱلْمُطَهَّرَةِ
and purified wombs;
لَمْ تُنَجِّسْكَ ٱلْجَاهِلِيَّةُ بِانْجَاسِهَا
the impurities of the Ignorance Era could not object you to filth
وَلَمْ تُلْبِسْكَ ٱلْمُدْلَهِمَّاتُ مِنْ ثِيَابِهَا
nor could its murky clothes dress you.
وَاشْهَدُ انَّكَ مِنْ دَعَائِمِ ٱلدِّينِ
I also bear witness that you are one of the mainstays of the religion,
وَارْكَانِ ٱلْمُسْلِمِينَ
