Sunan Abi Dawud; Sunan al-Nasāʾi; Sunan Ibn Mājah; Musnad Ahmad · Narrated by Anas ibn Mālik

Said once.

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَنِّي أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ اللَّهُ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ، الْأَحَدُ الصَّمَدُ، الَّذِي لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ

O Allah, I ask You, since I bear witness that You are Allah, there is no god but You, the One, the Self-Sufficient, who neither begets nor is born and has no equal.

Before the salam.

Sunan Abi Dawud; Jamiʿ al-Tirmidhi; Sunan Ibn Mājah; Musnad Ahmad · Narrated by Buraydah ibn al-Ḥuṣayb

Said once.

اللَّهُمَّ اهْدِنِي فِيمَنْ هَدَيْتَ، وَعَافِنِي فِيمَنْ عَافَيْتَ، وَتَوَلَّنِي فِيمَنْ تَوَلَّيْتَ، وَبَارِكْ لِي فِيمَا أَعْطَيْتَ، وَقِنِي شَرَّ مَا قَضَيْتَ، فَإِنَّكَ تَقْضِي وَلَا يُقْضَىٰ عَلَيْكَ، إِنَّهُ لَا يَذِلُّ مَنْ وَالَيْتَ، تَبَارَكْتَ رَبَّنَا وَتَعَالَيْتَ

O Allah, guide me among those You have guided, grant me well-being among those You have granted well-being, take me into Your care among those You have taken into Your care, bless me in what You have given, and protect me from the evil You have decreed. You decree and none decrees against You. He whom You support is never humbled. Blessed and exalted are You, our Lord.

The supplication of qunut in the witr prayer.

Sunan Abi Dawud; Jamiʿ al-Tirmidhi; Sunan al-Nasāʾi; Sunan Ibn Mājah · Narrated by al-Ḥasan ibn ʿAlī

Said once.

اللَّهُمَّ إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ، وَلَكَ نُصَلِّي وَنَسْجُدُ، وَإِلَيْكَ نَسْعَىٰ وَنَحْفِدُ، نَرْجُو رَحْمَتَكَ، وَنَخْشَىٰ عَذَابَكَ، إِنَّ عَذَابَكَ بِالْكَافِرِينَ مُلْحِقٌ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّا نَسْتَعِينُكَ، وَنَسْتَغْفِرُكَ، وَنُثْنِي عَلَيْكَ الْخَيْرَ، وَلَا نَكْفُرُكَ، وَنُؤْمِنُ بِكَ وَنَخْضَعُ لَكَ، وَنَخْلَعُ مَنْ يَكْفُرُكَ

O Allah, You alone we worship; to You we pray and prostrate; to You we hasten and strive. We hope for Your mercy and fear Your punishment; Your punishment will surely reach the disbelievers. O Allah, we seek Your help and Your forgiveness, we praise You with good and do not deny You, we believe in You and humble ourselves to You, and we abandon whoever disbelieves in You.

Another supplication of qunut.

al-Bayhaqī, al-Sunan al-Kubrā · Reported from ʿUmar ibn al-Khaṭṭāb

سُبْحَانَ الْمَلِكِ الْقُدُّوسِ

Glory be to the King, the Most Holy.

After the salam of the witr prayer; the third time with a raised voice.
