O Allah! I seek refuge in You from that I should ascribe any partner with You knowingly. I
seek Your forgiveness for the sin of which I have no knowledge. I repent from it. And
becoming disgusted of disbelief and idolatry, lying and backbiting, innovation and slander,
lewdness and abomination and all other acts of disobedience, I submit to Your will. I believe
and I declare that there is none worthy of worship except Allah and Muhammad is the
Messenger of Allah.
