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.
حَمَّدٍ النَّبِيِّ الظَّاهِر و على آلِهِ و صَحْبِهِ و سَلِّمْ تَسْلِيماً وأَرِنا في حَيَاتِنا ظُهُورَ دِينِهِ على الدِّينِ كُلِّهِ و أَظْهِرْ لَنَا بِهِ خَفِيِّاتِ المَعَانِي في الفَهْمِ عَنْكَ و اجْعَلْ أَسْرَارَ عِنَايَتِكَ و عِنَايَتِهِ بِنا عَلَيْنا ظَاهِرَة

O Children of Adam, do not allow the Devil to seduce you.[1]
We should thus be wary of the Devil and take measures to protect ourselves from him. When thoughts enter our minds, we should ask whether they are of satanic origin or angelic origin. When you remember Allah, promptings of angelic origin are strengthened, whereas promptings of satanic origin are weakened. Continue reading Know Your Enemy
