O Thou merciful God!  O Thou Who art mighty and powerful!  O Thou most kind Father!  These servants have gathered together, turning to Thee, supplicating Thy threshold, desiring Thine endless bounties from Thy great assurance.  They have no purpose save Thy good pleasure.  They have no intention save service to the world of humanity. 
 
O God!  Make this assemblage radiant.  Make the hearts merciful. Confer the bounties of the Holy Spirit.  Endow them with a power from heaven.  Bless them with heavenly minds.  Increase their sincerity, so that with all humility and contrition they may turn to Thy kingdom and be occupied with service to the world of humanity.  May each one become a radiant candle.  May each one become a brilliant star.  May each one become beautiful in color and redolent of fragrance in the Kingdom of God.  
 
O kind Father!  Confer Thy blessings.  Consider not our shortcomings. Shelter us under Thy protection.  Remember not our sins.  Heal us with Thy mercy.  We are weak; Thou art mighty.  We are poor; Thou art rich.  We are sick; Thou art the Physician.  We are needy; Thou art most generous.  
 
O God!  Endow us with Thy providence.  Thou art the Powerful. Thou art the Giver.  Thou art the Beneficent.

O my God!  O my God!  Verily, these servants are turning to Thee, supplicating Thy kingdom of mercy.  Verily, they are attracted by Thy holiness and set aglow with the fire of Thy love, seeking confirmation from Thy wondrous kingdom, and hoping for attainment in Thy heavenly realm.  Verily, they long for the descent of Thy bestowal, desiring illumination from the Sun of Reality. O Lord!  Make them radiant lamps, merciful signs, fruitful trees and shining stars.  May they come forth in Thy service and be connected with Thee by the bonds and ties of Thy love, longing for the lights of Thy favor.  O Lord!  Make them signs of guidance, standards of Thine immortal kingdom, waves of the sea of Thy mercy, mirrors of the light of Thy majesty. Verily, Thou art the Generous.  Verily, Thou art the Merciful. Verily, Thou art the Precious, the Beloved.

PRAYER TO CLOSE THE MEETING 
 
 
O God!  O God!  From the unseen kingdom of Thy oneness behold us assembled in this spiritual meeting, believing in Thee, confident in Thy signs, firm in Thy Covenant and Testament, attracted unto Thee, set aglow with the fire of Thy love and sincere in Thy Cause. We are servants in Thy vineyard, spreaders of Thy religion, devoted worshippers of Thy countenance, humble towards Thy loved ones, submissive before Thy door, and imploring Thee to confirm us in serving Thy chosen ones, to support us with Thine unseen hosts, to strengthen our loins in Thy servitude and to make us submissive and adoring servants communing with Thee. 
 
O our Lord!  We are weak and Thou art the Mighty, the Powerful!  We are lifeless, and Thou art the great life-giving Spirit!  We are needy, and Thou art the Sustainer, the Powerful. 
 
O our Lord!  Turn our faces unto Thy merciful countenance, feed us from Thy heavenly table with Thine abundant grace, assist us with the hosts of Thy supreme angels and confirm us though the holy ones of the Kingdom of Abha. 
 
Verily, Thou art the Generous, the Merciful!  Thou art the Possessor of great bounty, and, verily, Thou art the Clement and Gracious.
