Hizb al-Nasr (Arabic: حزب النصر; “The Litany of Victory”), as transmitted by Imam al-Haddad, is a powerful supplication traditionally recited for protection against both outward and inward enemies, including physical threats and spiritual harms such as envy, the evil eye, and the schemes of those who intend harm. Traditionally recited after the Zuhr prayer, it is a means of seeking Allah’s protection, aid, strength, and victory through supplication and remembrance. It shares its name with the well-known litany of Imam Abu al-Hasan al-Shadhili, also known as Hizb al-Nasr.

“Indeed, We have granted you a clear victory, so that Allah may forgive your past and future sins, complete His favour upon you, guide you to a straight path, and grant you a mighty victory.” (48:1–3) “And he was honoured in Allah’s sight.” (33:69) “Honoured in this world and the Hereafter, and among those brought near.” (3:45) “I have turned my face towards Him Who created the heavens and the earth.” (6:79)

“Help from Allah and a victory close at hand. Give glad tidings to the believers. O you who believe, be helpers of Allah, as Isa son of Maryam said to the disciples, ‘Who will be my helpers in the cause of Allah?’ The disciples said, ‘We are Allah’s helpers.’” (61:13–14)

3. “Allah, there is no god but Him, the Ever-Living, the Self-Subsisting. Neither drowsiness nor sleep overtakes Him. Everything in the heavens and on earth belongs to Him. Who can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what lies before them and what lies behind them. They grasp nothing of His knowledge except what He wills. His Kursi encompasses the heavens and the earth, and preserving them does not weary Him. He is the Most High, the Magnificent.” (2:255)

4. “Had We sent down this Qur’an upon a mountain, you would have seen it humbled and splitting apart from fear of Allah. We offer these examples to people so that they may reflect. He is Allah, there is no deity except Him, Knower of the unseen and the seen. He is the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful. He is Allah, there is no deity except Him, the Sovereign, the Most Holy, the Source of Peace, the Giver of Security, the Guardian, the Almighty, the Compeller, the Supremely Great. Glory be to Allah above all that they associate with Him. He is Allah, the Creator, the Originator, the Fashioner. His are the most beautiful names. Everything in the heavens and the earth glorifies Him, and He is the Almighty, the All-Wise.” (59:21–24)

5. I seek refuge for myself in Allah the Exalted from everything that hears with two ears, sees with two eyes, walks with two legs, strikes with two hands, and speaks with two lips. I fortify myself with Allah, the Supreme Creator, from the evil of what I fear and dread, from the jinn and humans, and from their coming into my presence. Exalted is His protection, majestic is His praise, sanctified are His names, and there is no deity other than Him.

6. O Allah, I place You before my enemies, and I seek refuge in You from their evils, their scheming, their plots, and their deceit. Extinguish the fire of anyone from among the jinn or humans who intends enmity towards me. O Protector, O Guardian, O Sufficient One, O Encompassing One. Glory be to You, my Lord, how great is Your majesty and how mighty is Your authority. I fortify myself with Allah, with the names of Allah, with the verses of Allah, with the Angels of Allah, with the Prophets of Allah, with the Messengers of Allah, and with the righteous slaves of Allah. I protect myself with: There is no deity except Allah, Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, may Allah send prayers and peace upon him and his Family.

7. O Allah, guard me with Your eye that never sleeps, shelter me with Your protection that cannot be overcome, and have mercy on me by Your power over me so that I do not perish while You are my trust and my hope. O Reliever of those who seek relief (3×), O Rescuer of the doomed (3×). Protect me from the evil of every visitor who comes by night or by day, except a visitor who comes with good. Indeed, You are over all things All-Powerful.

8. O Sufficient One, O Perfect One, O Praiseworthy One, O Glorious One, lift from me every severe hardship, protect me from the blade and from iron, from intense illness, and from a numerous army. Grant me light from Your light, honour from Your honour, victory from Your victory, radiance from Your radiance, giving from Your giving, protection from Your protection, and support from Your support. O Possessor of Majesty and Honour, and of great gifts, I ask You to suffice me against the evil of every possessor of evil, truly, You are Allah, the Supreme Creator.
