My Lord, if you record me by Your side on Lauh Mahfuzh's side as an injured person, unlucky, or a narrow person of sustenance, then remove it in Lauh Mahfuzh's accident, misfortune, and the narrowness of my sustenance. Write me on your side as a person who is truly, cheaply fortunate, and taufiq to do good because You have said what you said while your words were truly in your book that was revealed through the words of the Prophet of your messenger, 'God erases and determines what He wills on His side of Lauh Mahfuzh.' Allah prays and dives into Sayyidina Muhammad, his family, and friends. All praise to Allah, Lord of all nature."
