We have reached the evening and at this very time unto Allah belongs all sovereignty, and all praise is for Allah. None has the right to be worshipped except Allah, alone, without partner, to Him belongs all sovereignty and praise and He is capable of all things.

My Lord, I ask You for the good of this night and the good of what follows it and I seek refuge with You from the evil of this night and the evil of what follows it.

My Lord, I seek refuge with You from laziness and senility. My Lord, I seek refuge with You from torment in the Fire and the torment in the grave.

Note: (al-masa-a) translated as evening refers to the time after the Asr prayer until the sun sets, however some scholars say that it refers to the time after the sun sets and onwards.
