Supplication for Thursday

1- Praise belongs to God, who has taken away the shadowy night by His powerand brought the sight-giving day through His mercy. He has clothed me in its brightnessand given me its favour. 2- O God, just as Thou hast spared me for this day, so also spare me for its likes, bless the prophet Muhammad and his Household, torment me not in it and in other nights and daysby allowing me to commit unlawful actsand to clothe myself in sins; provide me with its good, the good of all within it, and the good of everything after it; and turn away from me its evil, the evil of all within it, and the evil of everything after it! 3- O God, by the protective compact of Islam, I seek mediation with Thee! By the inviolability of the Qur'an, I rely upon Thee! By Muhammad the chosen (God bless him and his Household) I seek intercession with Thee! So recognize my protective compactby which I hope my need will be granted, O Most Merciful of the merciful! 4 O God, decree for me on Thursday five thingswhich none embraces but Thy generosityand none supports but Thy favours: health through which I may have the strength to obey Thee, worship by which I may deserve Thy plentiful reward, plenty in my state through lawful provision, and that Thou makest me secure in the places of fear through Thy security, and placest me in Thy fortress against the striking of worries and sorrows! Bless Muhammad and his Household, and make my seeking his mediation as an intercessorgive profit on the Day of Resurrection! SurelyThou art the Most Merciful of the merciful! 10
