In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Ithaf Al-Barara
With the biographies of the ten readers
Praise be to God
We praise Him, seek His help, and seek His forgiveness
We seek refuge in God from the evils of ourselves and the evils of our deeds
Whoever God guides, there is no one who can lead him astray
And whoever leads astray, there is no guide for him
I bear witness that there is no god but God alone, with no partner
I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger
O you who have believed, fear God as He should be feared
And do not die unless you are Muslims
O people, fear your Lord, who created you from a single soul
And her husband was created from her
Many men and women died from them
And fear God, by whom you ask, and the wombs
God has been a watcher over you
O you who have believed, fear God and speak wise words
He will correct your deeds and forgive you your sins
Whoever obeys God and His Messenger has achieved a great victory
