Qul aAAoothu birabbi alfalaqi;
Say (recognize, realize, comprehend, experience): “I seek refuge in the Rabb (the reality of the Names comprising my essence) of the Falaq (the light that prevails over the darkness and brings enlightenment to me).”
-
Min sharri ma khalaqa;
“From the evil of His creation.”
-
Wamin sharri ghasiqin itha waqaba;
“From the evil of the darkness that settles in my mind preventing me from perceiving and comprehending...”
-
Wamin sharri alnnaffathati fee alAAuqadi;
“From the evil of the women who blow on knots (those who manipulate brain waves to make black magic).”
-
Wamin sharri hasidin itha hasada;
“And from the evil eye of the envier when he envies!”
I seek refuge in the protective forces of the Names of Allah comprising my Essence from impulses generated by the accursed and rejected (rajim) Satan, which, as a result of preconditioning, causes our sense of illusion to perceive the existent as non-existent and the non-existent as existent, thereby making man believe he is an independent being and body outside the Names of Allah, directing man to the idea of an external deity-God in the heavens.
By the one who is denoted by the name Allah (who created my being with His Names in accord with the meaning of the letter ‘B’), the Rahman, the Rahim.
