11ـ وَرُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) الْحَمْدُ لله الَّذِي أَصْبَحْنَا وَالْمُلْكُ لَهُ وَأَصْبَحْتُ عَبْدَكَ وَابْنَ عَبْدِكَ وَابْنَ أَمَتِكَ فِي قَبْضَتِكَ اللهمَّ ارْزُقْنِي مِنْ فَضْلِكَ رِزْقاً مِنْ حَيْثُ أَحْتَسِبُ وَمِنْ حَيْثُ لا أَحْتَسِبُ وَاحْفَظْنِي مِنْ حَيْثُ أَحْتَفِظُ وَمِنْ حَيْثُ لا أَحْتَفِظُ اللهمَّ ارْزُقْنِي مِنْ فَضْلِكَ وَلا تَجْعَلْ لِي حَاجَةً إِلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ اللهمَّ أَلْبِسْنِي الْعَافِيَةَ وَارْزُقْنِي عَلَيْهَا الشُّكْرَ يَا وَاحِدُ يَا أَحَدُ يَا صَمَدُ يَا الله الَّذِي لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ كُفُواً أَحَدٌ يَا الله يَا رَحْمَانُ يَا رَحِيمُ يَا مَالِكَ الْمُلْكِ وَرَبَّ الأرْبَابِ وَسَيِّدَ السَّادَاتِ وَيَا الله يَا لا إِلَهَ إِلا أَنْتَ اشْفِنِي بِشِفَائِكَ مِنْ كُلِّ دَاءٍ وَسُقْمٍ فَإِنِّي عَبْدُكَ وَابْنُ عَبْدِكَ أَتَقَلَّبُ فِي قَبْضَتِكَ.

Published English translation

11. He (the above narrator) has narrated from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.) would say, ‘All praise belongs to Allah Who has given us this morning and the kingdom belongs to Him. You have brought to this morning Your servant son of Your servant and son of Your female servant under Your control. O Lord, grant me sustenance through Your generosity, a sustenance from the source that I expect or did not expect, protect me against things I protect myself or cannot protect. O Lord, grant me sustenance through Your generosity and do not make me needy before any of Your creatures. O Lord, dress me up in good health and grant me the realization to thank You for it, the One, the only, O Self- sufficient O Allah Who is not born from anyone and has not given birth to anyone and no one is His partner or one of His kind. O Allah, O Beneficent, O Merciful, O the Owner of the kingdom, the Cherisher of the cherishers, the Master of the masters, O Allah, no one deserves to be worshipped except You, grant me good health through Your cure from all illnesses, and pains; I am one of Your servants and the son of Your servant and I move back and forth in Your control.’”
