صَلِّ اللَّهُمَّ يا إِلهِي عَلَى مَنْ جَعَلْتَهُ قَيُّومًا عَلَى أَسْمائِكَ الحُسْنى وَبِهِ فَصَّلْتَ بَيْنَ الأَتْقِياءِ وَالأَشْقِيآءِ بِأَنْ تُوَفِّقَنا عَلَى ما تُحِبُّ وَتَرْضی، وَصَلِّ اللَّهُمَّ يا إِلهِي عَلَى كَلِماتِكَ وَحُروفاتِكَ وَعَلَى الَّذِينَ تَوَجَّهُوا إِلَيْكَ وَأَقْبَلُوا إِلى وَجْهِكَ وَسَمِعُوا نِدائَك
Shoghi Effendi Translation
Bless Thou, O Lord my God, Him Whom Thou hast set over Thy most excellent Titles, and through Whom Thou hast divided between the godly and the wicked, and graciously aid us to do what Thou lovest and desirest. Bless Thou, moreover, O my God, them Who are Thy Words and Thy Letters, and them who have set their faces towards Thee, and turned unto Thy face, and hearkened to Thy Call.
