Invocations for rising from the Ruki' — Du'a 3

مِلءَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَمِلءَ الأَرضِ، وَمَا بَينَهُمَا، وَمِلءَ مَا شِئتَ مِن شَيءٍ بَعدُ. أَهلَ الثَّناءِ وَالمَجدِ، أَحَقُّ مَا قَالَ العَبدُ، وَكُلُّنَا لَكَ عَبدٌ. اللَّهُمَّ لاَ مَانِعَ لِمَا أَعطَيتَ، وَلاَ مُعطِيَ لِمَا مَنَعتَ، وَلاَ يَنفَعُ ذَا الجَدِّ مِنكَ الجَدُّ

Pronunciation

Mil-as-samawati wamil-al-ard, wama baynahuma, wamil/a ma shi/ta min shay-in ba'd, ahlath-thana-i walmajd, ahaqqu ma qalal-'abd, wakulluna laka 'abd. Allahumma la mani'a lima a'tayt, wala mu'tiya lima mana't, wala yanfa'u thal-jaddi minkal-jad

English meaning

The heavens and the Earth and all between them abound with Your praises, and all that You will abounds with Your praises. O Possessor of praise and majesty, the truest thing a slave has said (of You) and we are all Your slaves. O Allah, none can prevent what You have willed to bestow and none can bestow what You have willed to prevent, and no wealth or majesty can benefit anyone, as from You is all wealth and majesty.)(This supplication is made optionally only in conjunction with the previous one.

Explanation (Tafseer)

This extended praise imagines the heavens, earth, what lies between them, and whatever else Allah wills as filled with praise. It acknowledges human servitude and declares that no one can prevent what Allah gives or give what He withholds, while worldly wealth or status cannot avail against Him.
