Fawaid: Supplication in Times of Harshness and Tribulation

Sayyidil Habib Umar bin Hafiz advises three repetitions of the following verses of poetry when making doa in times of harshness and tribulation (from Madinah al-Munawwarah 29 Rabi’ul Awwal 1437H):

يَاعُمْدَتِي ياعُدَّتِي يامُنْقِذِي مِنْ شِدَّتِي

O My Reliance, O My Goal, O Saviour from my own harshness

وَجَّهْتُ لَكَ وِجْهَتِي عَجِّلْ بِغَوْثِي ياعَظِيمْ

I turn my attention to you, My Aid, O Magnificent One

وَسَخِّرِ الْأَسْبَابَا وَذَلِّـلِ الصِّعَابَا

Subjugate (for me) the means/causes and vanquish the difficulties

وَافْتَحْ لَنَا الْأَبْوَابَا بِالنَّصْرِ مِنْكَ ياكَرِيمْ

And open for us doors by victory from You, O Generous One

وَرُدَّ كَيْدَ الْكَائِدِ وَكُلَّ طَاغٍ مَارِدِ

And reject the plot of those who plot and the rebellious tyrants

(وَحَاسِدٍ مُعَانِدِ بِحَقِّ سِرْ (طسم

… and envious, stubborn ones, by the truth of the secret of “To Sin Mim” (the broken letters which appear at the begin of Surah Ash-Shu’ara and Surah Al-Qasas)

Habib Umar


 

أوصى الحبيب عمر بن حفيظ بتكرير هذه الأبيات الثلاثة أثناء الدعاء في أوقات الشدة والبلاء. وقد كتبها في المدينة المنورة يوم السبت 29 ربيع الأول 1437هـ :

يَاعُمْدَتِي ياعُدَّتِي يامُنْقِذِي مِنْ شِدَّتِي * وَجَّهْتُ لَكَ وِجْهَتِي عَجِّلْ بِغَوْثِي ياعَظِيمْ

وَسَخِّرِ الْأَسْبَابَا وَذَلِّـلِ الصِّعَابَا * وَافْتَحْ لَنَا الْأَبْوَابَا بِالنَّصْرِ مِنْكَ ياكَرِيمْ

(وَرُدَّ كَيْدَ الْكَائِدِ وَكُلَّ طَاغٍ مَارِدِ * وَحَاسِدٍ مُعَانِدِ بِحَقِّ سِرْ (طسم
