O Allah, today my forehead met the dust for Your sake As my nose was rubbed in the basest of materials- They have become well acquainted through prostrations.

My body's breaths are numbered While my soul will return to you forever. And, O Allah, as I laid my forehead on the dust I realized which of these two is more worthy of posterity. « return. |
