'Duah': Prayer of Light

 

Oh Allah!

Place light in my heart

And light in my tongue

And light in my hearing

And light in my seeing

And light from above me

And light from below me

And light on my right

And light on my left

And light ahead of me

And light behind me

 Place light in my soul

Magnify for me light

And amplify for me light

Make for me light

And make me light

 

Oh Allah! Grant me light

And place light in my nerves

And light in my body

And light in my blood

And light in my hair

And light in my skin

Oh Allah!

Make for me a light in my grave

And a light in my bones

Increase me in light

Increase me in light

Increase me in light

Grant me light upon light!’

 

-Holy Prophet Muhammad (sa)
