Fortress of the Muslim
Hisn al-Muslim 117
Arabic hadith text
اللّهُـمَّ إِنِّـي أَعـوذُ بِرِضـاكَ مِنْ سَخَطِـك، وَبِمُعـافاتِـكَ مِنْ عُقوبَـتِك، وَأَعـوذُ بِكَ مِنْـك، لا أُحْصـي ثَنـاءً عَلَـيْك، أَنْـتَ كَمـا أَثْنَـيْتَ عَلـى نَفْسـِك
Translation
O Allah, I seek refuge in Your pleasure from Your anger, in Your protection from Your punishment, and in You from You. I cannot enumerate praise of You; You are as You have praised Yourself.
Translation notes
وَبِمُعـافاتِـكَ مِنْ عُقوبَـتِك
The witness translates muʿāfātika as ‘Your forgiveness’; the Arabic more directly indicates safety, well-being, or protection.
Which contextual rendering of muʿāfātika should be preferred?
