    اللَّهُ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الْحَيُّ الْقَيُّومُ لَا تَأْخُذُهُ سِنَةٌ وَلَا نَوْمٌ لَّهُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ مَن ذَا الَّذِي يَشْفَعُ عِندَهُ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ وَلَا يُحِيطُونَ بِشَيْءٍ مِّنْ عِلْمِهِ إِلَّا بِمَا شَاءَ وَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ وَلَا يَئُودُهُ حِفْظُهُمَا وَهُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيمُ

    Allah—there is no god but He, the Ever-Living, the Self-Sustaining. Neither slumber nor sleep overtakes Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on earth. Who is there who can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is before them and what is behind them, and they cannot comprehend anything of His knowledge except what He wills. His Throne extends over the heavens and the earth, and preserving them does not weary Him. He is the Most High, the Most Great.

To Him belongs the dominion, and to Him belongs all praise. He gives life and causes death, and He is over all things omnipotent’; ten times: ten good deeds will be recorded for him, ten bad deeds will be erased from him, and he will be raised ten degrees, and his entire day will be protected from all that is undesirable, and he is protected from Satan, and no sin should befall him on that day except associating partners with Allah.
