Imam Ridha (peace be upon him) is reported to have said, ‘When you finish the Dhuhr Prayer, raise your hands and say:’

اَللّهُمَّ اِنّي اَتَقَرَّبُ اِلَيْكَ بِجُودِكَ وَكَرَمِكَ،
Allahuma Inni Ataqqarabu Elaika B-Jodik Wa-Karamik,
O Allah, I seek closeness towards you through your goodness and generosity,
وَاَتَقرَّبُ اِلَيْكَ بِمُحَمَّد عَبْدِكَ وَرَسُولِكَ،
Wa Ataqarabu Elaika B Mohammed Abdik Wa-Rasoolik,
and I closeness towards you through Muhammad; your servant and messenger,
وَاَتَقَرَّبُ اِلَيْكَ بِمَلائِكَتِكَ الْمُقَرَّبينَ وَاَنْبِيَائِكَ وَرُسُلِكَ،
Wa Ataqarabu Elaika B Malaikatik Al Moqarabeen Wa Anbiyaik Wa Rosolik,
and I seek closeness towards you through your closest most dearest angles, prophets and apostles;
اَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلى مُحَمَّد عَبْدِكَ وَرَسُولِكَ وَعَلى آلِ مُحَمَّد،
An Tosali Ala Mohammed Abdik Wa Rasoolik Wa Ala Aali Mohammed,
That to send your blessings onto Muhammed your servant and messenger and onto Muhammad’s progeny,
وَاْنَ تُقيلَني عَثْرَتي وَتَسْتُرَ عَلَيَّ ذُنُوبي وَتَغْفِرَها لي،
Wa An Tqilni Asrati Wa-Tastor Ala Znoobi Wa Tagfirha Lee
That so you let go of what I have stumbled upon and that you cover my sins and you forgive them for me
وَتَقْضِيَ لي حَوائجي وَلا تُعَذِّبْني بِقَبيحٍ كانَ مِنّي،
Wa Taqdi Lee Hawaeiji Wa La Toazbni B Qabeehin Kaan Min-ni
and grant me my needs and do not torment me due to the filth of what was done by me,
فَاِنَّ عَفْوَكَ وَجُودَكَ يَسَعُني،
Fa Inna Afwaka Wa Joodak Yasaoni
For your mercy and generosity suffices me
اِنَّكَ على كُلِّ شَيء قَديرٌ.
Innaka Ala Kol Shai-in Qadeer
As you are capable to do all things
