Wama bikum min niAAmatin famina Allahithumma itha massakumu addurru fa-ilayhitaj-aroon

And whatever you have of favor - it is from Allāh. Then when adversity touches you, to Him you cry for help.

Whatever you have of blessing is from Allah. Then when adversity touches you, to Him you cry for help.

صِيَامُ يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ يُكَفِّرُ السَّنَةَ الْمَاضِيَةَ وَالسَّنَةَ الْآتِيَةَ

Siyamu yawmi 'Arafata yukaffiru-s-sanata-l-madiyata wa-s-sanata-l-atiyah.

Fasting the day of Arafah expiates the sins of the past year and the coming year.
