From [Ad-Dawaawiinu s-Sitta · الدواوين الست](https://qasaaid.zayfir.app/app/qasaaid/691f292bc02b144934a4ec1f) by [Sheikh Ibrahim Nyass](https://qasaaid.zayfir.app/app/authors/69172463686829cc1d041df5)

**1.** صَفَا وَقْتُ هَذَا الْعَبْدِ حِينَ تَخَلَّصَا / وَفُكَّ مِنَ الْأَغْيَارِ وَالْحُبَّ أَخْلَصَا

_Ṣafā waqtu hādhā al-‘abdi ḥīna takhal-laṣā / Wa-fukka mina al-aghyāri wal-ḥubba akhlaṣā_

The time of this servant became pure when he attained liberation; he was freed from all others and made his love sincere.

**2.** وَذَاكَ بِحُبِّي لِلْأَمِيــــنِ وَذِكْـــرِهِ / وَقَدْ خَجِلَ الْوَاشُونَ مِمَّنْ تَرَبَّصَا

_Wa-dhāka bi-ḥubbī lil-Amīni wa-dhikrihi / Wa-qad khajila al-wāshūna mim-man tarab-baṣā_

That was through my love for the Trustworthy One and his remembrance; while the slanderers who were lying in wait have been shamed.

**3.** وِقَايَةُ رَبِّي أَغْنَتِ الْعَبْدَ سَرْمَــدًا / إِلَى جَانِبِي مَنْ كَادَ لَنْ يَتَخَلَّصَـا

_Wiqāyatu rabbī aghnati al-‘abda sarmadan / Ila jānibī man kāda lan yatakhal-laṣā_

The protection of my Lord has sufficed this servant forever; those at my side who plotted shall never find a way out.

**4.** كَذَا حَرْبُهُ تَكْفِـــــي الْعِــدَى فَتَرَاهُــمُ / بِسَاحَتِهِمْ صَرْعَى جَزَاءً لِمَنْ عَصَـا

_Kadhalika ḥarbuhu takfī al-‘idā fa-tarāhumu / Bi-sāḥatihim ṣar‘ā jazā’an li-man ‘aṣā_

Likewise, his battle is sufficient against the enemies, so you see them fallen in their own courtyards—a recompense for those who disobeyed.

**5.** أَرَانِـيَ مَنْصُورًا بِسِرِّ مُحَمَّـــدٍ / عَلَيْهِ صَلاَةٌ قَدْ تَعُمُّ مُخَصَّصَا

_Arāniya manṣūran bi-sirri Muḥammadin / ‘Alayhi ṣalātun qad ta‘ummu mukhaṣ-ṣaṣā_

I see myself victorious through the secret of Muhammad; upon him be a prayer that encompasses both the general and the specific.

**6.** عَلَيْــهِ صَــــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُـــمَّ سَلاَمُــهُ / صَلاَةً وَتَسْلِيمًا يُوَافِيــهِ مُخْلَصَــا

_‘Alayhi ṣalātu Allāhi thumma salāmuhu / Ṣalātan wa-taslīman yuwāfīhi mukhlaṣā_

Upon him be the prayer of Allah and then His peace; a prayer and salutation that reaches him in pure sincerity.

**7.** عَلَيْهِ صَلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُـــــمَّ سَلاَمُـــهُ / يَنَالُ عَدُوِّي مِنْهُ دَهْرًا تَنَقُّصَــا

_‘Alayhi ṣalātu Allāhi thumma salāmuhu / Yanālu ‘aduwwī minhu dahran tanaq-quṣā_

Upon him be the prayer of Allah and then His peace; may my enemy suffer a perpetual diminishing through him.

**8.** عَلَيْـــــــــهِ صَـــــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُمَّ سَلاَمُـــهُ / أَرَى الدَّهْرَ قِرْطَاسِي لِمَدْحِكَ بَصْبَصَا

_‘Alayhi ṣalātu Allāhi thumma salāmuhu / Arā al-dahra qirṭāsī li-madḥika baṣ-baṣā_

Upon him be the prayer of Allah and then His peace; I see time itself acting as my paper, eager for your praise.

**9.** عَلَيْـــهِ صَـــــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُمَّ سَلاَمُـــهُ / مَلاَبِسَ تَقْــوَى اللّٰهِ كَيْ أَتَقَمَّصَـــا

_‘Alayhi ṣalātu Allāhi thumma salāmuhu / Malābisa taqwa Allāhi kay ataqam-maṣā_

Upon him be the prayer of Allah and then His peace; [grant me] the garments of God-consciousness that I may clothe myself in them.

**10.** عَلَيْـــهِ صَــــــلاَةُ اللّٰهِ ثُــــمَّ سَلاَمُـــهُ / وَآلٍ وَأَصْحَابٍ وَمَنْ قَدْ تَخَصَّصَا

_‘Alayhi ṣalātu Allāhi thumma salāmuhu / Wa-ālin wa-asḥābin wa-man qad takhaṣ-ṣaṣā_

Upon him be the prayer of Allah and then His peace, and upon the family, the companions, and whoever has become specialized [in his love].
