# Morning Dhikr — Azkar al-Sabah

Quick Answer

We have entered the morning and the dominion belongs to Allah. All praise is for Allah. There is no god but Allah, alone, without partner. His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He is over all things powerful.

The morning adhkar (Azkar al-Sabah) are supplications and remembrances recited after Fajr prayer until sunrise. They form a comprehensive shield of protection for the day ahead and are among the most strongly recommended daily acts of worship in the Sunnah.

أَصْبَحْنَا وَأَصْبَحَ الْمُلْكُ لِلَّهِ، وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ، لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ

Transliteration

Aṣbaḥnā wa aṣbaḥa-l-mulku lillāh, wa-l-ḥamdu lillāh, lā ilāha illā-llāhu waḥdahū lā sharīka lah, lahu-l-mulku wa lahu-l-ḥamdu wa huwa ʿalā kulli shayʾin qadīr.

Translation

We have entered the morning and the dominion belongs to Allah. All praise is for Allah. There is no god but Allah, alone, without partner. His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He is over all things powerful.
