دعائے قنوتاللَّهُمَّ اهْدِنِي فِيمَنْ هَدَيْتَ، وَعَافِنِي فِيمَنْ عَافَيْتَ، وَتَوَلَّنِي فِيمَنْ تَوَلَّيْتَ، وَبَارِكْ لِي فِيمَا أَعْطَيْتَ، وَقِنِي شَرَّ مَا قَضَيْتَ، إِنَّكَ تَقْضِي وَلَا يُقْضَى عَلَيْكَ، وَإِنَّهُ لَا يَذِلُّ مَنْ وَالَيْتَ، تَبَارَكْتَ رَبَّنَا وَتَعَالَيْتَ

Allāhummah-dinī fīman hadayt, wa ʿāfinī fīman ʿāfayt, wa tawallanī fīman tawallayt, wa bārik lī fīmā aʿṭayt, wa qinī sharra mā qaḍayt, innaka taqḍī wa lā yuqḍā ʿalayk, wa innahu lā yadhillu man wālayt, tabārakta rabbanā wa taʿālayt.
Translation
“O Allah, guide me among those You have guided, grant me wellness among those You gave wellness, take me as ally among those You allied, bless me in what You gave me, and protect me from the evil of what You decreed. For You decree and none decrees over You; none is humiliated whom You befriend. Blessed are You, our Lord, Most High.”
Urdu Translation
اے اللہ! ہدایت دے، عافیت دے، دوست بنا، جو دیا اس میں برکت دے، اور جو فیصلہ کیا اس کے شر سے بچا۔ تو فیصلہ کرتا ہے، تیرے اوپر کوئی فیصلہ نہیں۔ جسے تو دوست بنائے ذلیل نہیں ہوتا۔ اے رب! تو بابرکت اور بلند ہے۔
