When Turning in Bed

Arabic

لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لاَ شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ، وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ، وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ، سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ، وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ، وَلاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ، وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، وَلاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاَّ بِاللَّهِ

Urdu Translation

اللہ کے سوا کوئی معبود نہیں وہ اکیلا ہے اس کا کوئی شریک نہیں، اسی کی بادشاہی ہے اسی کے لیے تعریف ہے اور وہ ہر چیز پر قادر ہے، اللہ پاک ہے اور تمام تعریفیں اللہ کے لیے ہیں اور اللہ کے سوا کوئی معبود نہیں اور اللہ سب سے بڑا ہے اور اللہ کے بغیر کوئی طاقت اور قوت نہیں

Transliteration

La ilaha illallahu wahdahu la shareeka lahu, lahul mulku, wa lahul hamdu, wa huwa ala kulli shayin qadeer, subhanallahi, walhamdu lillahi, wa la ilaha illallahu, wallahu akbaru, wa la hawla wa la quwwata illa billah

English Translation

None has the right to be worshipped except Allah, alone, without partner. To Him belongs sovereignty and all praise, and He has power over all things. Glory is to Allah, and all praise is for Allah, and Allah is the Greatest, and there is no power nor might except with Allah.
