A Morning Prayer
A morning prayer seeks refuge in God from all forms of evil and asks for blessings for the day. The prayer begins by seeking protection from the evils of creation, the night, witchcraft, and envy. It then recites a Quranic verse seeking refuge from the whisperer in the hearts of people. The prayer acknowledges a new morning under God's dominion, praising Him as the one without partner. It asks for the day's goodness and protection from its evil, from laziness, old age, and the punishments of Hell and the grave. It acknowledges that all movement from morning to evening, life and death, is by God's blessing and that resurrection is to Him. It seeks forgiveness and protection in all matters of religion, worldly life, family, and property, asking for veiled secrets and preservation from all directions. The prayer concludes with a blessing.
"I seek refuge with Allah, the Lord of mankind, the King of mankind, the Allah, God of mankind, from the evil of the whisperer."
"O Allah, with Your blessings we enter the morning, and with Your blessings we enter the evening."
