ضْلِكَ وَعِنايَتِكَ ثُمَّ أَنْزِلْ عَلَى أَحِبَّتِكَ ما لا يَضْطَرِبُهُمْ بَعْدِي، إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ المُقْتَدِرُ عَلَى ما تَشآءُ لا إِلهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ العَزِيزُ الحَكِيمُ، أَيْ رَبِّ تَرَى بِأَنَّ أَحِبَّائَكَ خَرَجُوا عَنْ
Shoghi Effendi Translation
Hasten, by Thy grace and bounty, my passing, O my Lord, and pour forth upon all them that are dear to Thee what will preserve them from fear and trembling after me. Powerful art Thou to do whatsoever may please Thee. No God is there except Thee, the All-Glorious, the All-Wise.
