Salawat with Allah’s Beautiful Names: Yā ‘Azīz (the Mighty)

This prayer is taken from Sayyidi Habib Umar bin Hafiz’s collection of prayers using Allah’s beautiful names in which he calls upon Allah by His beautiful names and then asks Him to bestow prayers upon His Beloved by those names. Finally, he asks Allah for a portion of those attributes which belong to Allah and which He has bestowed upon His Messenger ﷺ.

اللَّهُمَّ يا اللهُ يا عَزِيز صَلِّ على عَبْدِكَ و حَبِيبِكَ سَيِّدِنا مُحَمَّدٍ النَّبِيِّ العَزِيز و على آلِهِ و صَحْبِهِ و سَلِّمْ تَسْلِيماً و أَعِزْنِي بِهِ و اجْعَلْ لي بِطَاعَتِكَ و قُرْبِكَ عِزَّاً

Allāhumma yā Allāhu yā ‘Azīz ṣalli ‘alā ‘abdika wa ḥabībika sayyidinā Muḥammad an-nabī al-‘azīz wa ‘alā ālihi wa ṣaḥbihi wa sallim tasliman wa a’iznī bihi wa’j’al lī biṭā’atik wa qurbika ‘izza

O Allah, O Mighty One, bestow abundant prayers and peace upon Your slave and beloved, our Master Muhammad, the Noble Prophet, and by him ennoble me and grant me nobility through obedience to You and closeness to You.
