O Allah: (please do) send blessings on Muhammad and on the Household of Muhammad,
and send blessings on Your faithful demonstrator,
Your sagacious representative,
Your well-pleased trustee,
Your sincerely attached guide,
Your Right Path,
the most important approach,
the just and equitable course,
the light of the faithful believers’ hearts,
the friend of the pious ones,
the comrade of the sincere.
O Allah: (please do) send blessings on our Master, Muhammad and on his Household,
and send blessings on `Ali son of Muhammad,
the infallible guide,
The free from errors and faults;
And he who kept himself aloof from temptations and served You,
And who was tried (by You) through seditious matters
And who was tested (by You) through tribulations
And who was examined (by You) through his reactions towards misfortunes
And through his steadfastness against complaining
He is the spiritual guide of Your servants,
the blessing for the human civilization,
the destination of Your mercy,
You entrusted him with Your wisdom,
And he led unto Your Paradise,
He is the all-knowledgeable among Your created beings
The true guide of Your creatures
whom You chose and preferred
and elected to take the place of Your Prophet among his people,
and gave him the responsibility of keeping intact the prescript of his religion.
So, he accomplished the onerous task of representation (of the Prophet),
With full and perfect confidence
difficulties did not confuse him,
complications did not obscure his judgment,
Rather he relieved intricate issues,
And he sealed the loopholes,
And he fulfilled the mission
O Allah just as You made him a source of delight for Your Prophet, raise him to the most elevated position,
And give him the most fitting reward that suits him,
And bless him and convey our greetings and salutations to him.
and give us, on account of our love for him, Your bounties and favors,
And amnesty and approval,
Verily, You art the owner of superabundant benefits and bounties.
After accomplishing the two-Rak`ah Ziyarah Prayer, the following supplication may be, advisably, said:
O Lord of omnipotent power!
O Lord of all-inclusive mercy!
O Lord of successive favors!
O Lord of uninterrupted bounties!
O Lord of magnificent bestowals!
O Lord of abundant conferrals!
(Please do) send blessings upon Muhammad and the Household of Muhammad—the veracious ones,
And grant me that which I ask from You
And re-unify me (with my family),
And unite me (with my family)
And purify my deeds
And cause not my heart to stray after You have guided me,
And cause not my footstep to slip
And never refer me to myself even for a time as short as a wink of an eye
And disappoint not my desire
And expose not my private parts
And disclose not my covering
And cause me not to feel lonely, and despair me not,
And be to me kind and merciful
And guide me (to the right path), and purify me, and make me get rid of impurities,
And cleanse me, and include me with the chosen, the select, and the choicest ones
And dedicate me to You and render me suitable
And draw me near You and take me not far away from You
And be kind to me and do not turn away from me

O Light, O Evident,
O Granter of light, O Granter of evidence
O Lord: (please do) save me from all evils,
And from vicissitudes of time
And I beseech You for redemption the Day when the Trumpet is blown.
You may then mention your needs, and you may then repeat the following as much as possible:
O my means when I lack means
O my hope and my trust
O my haven and my support
O the One; O the One and Only
O (the described in) “Say: He is Allah, the One.”
I beseech You in the name of those whom You created from among Your creations
But You have not made anyone like them at all,
(please do) send blessings upon them all,
And…
