:ترجمہ

’’اللہ کے سوا کوئی معبود نہیں، وہ اکیلا ہے، اس کا کوئی شریک نہیں، اسی کی بادشاہت ہے اور اسی کے لیے سب تعریف ہے اور وہ ہر چیز پر کامل قدرت رکھتا ہے، برائی سے بچنے کی ہمت ہے نہ نیکی کرنے کی طاقت مگر اللہ کی توفیق ہی سے۔ اللہ کے سوا کوئی معبود نہیں او رہم صرف اسی کی عبادت کرتے ہیں۔ اسی کی طرف سے انعام ہے اور اسی کے لیے فضل اور اسی کے لیے بہترین ثنا ہے۔ اللہ کے سوا کوئی معبود نہیں، ہم اسی کے لیے بندگی کو خالص کرنے والے ہیں، خواہ کافر (اسے) ناگوار سمجھیں۔‘‘

English Translation:

"There is no deity but Allah, He is alone and has no partners. His is the sovereignty, and to Him belongs all praise, and He is capable of everything. There is no power to avoid evil, nor strength to do good, except by Allah’s will. There is no deity but Allah, and we worship none but Him.
