"If somebody recites it during the day with firm faith in it and dies on the same day before the evening, he will be from the people of Paradise and if somebody recites it at night with firm faith in it and dies before the morning he will be from the people of Paradise."

O Allah, You are my Lord, none has the right to be worshiped except You,



You created me and I am Your servant

and I abide to Your covenant and promise [to honor it] as best I can,

I take refuge in You from the evil of which I committed

I acknowledge Your favor upon me

and I acknowledge my sin, so forgive me,

for verily none can forgive sins except You.

Allahumma anta rabbee la ilaha illa anta,
