1 · First rakat

سُبْحَانَكَ ٱللَّهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ وَتَبَارَكَ ٱسْمُكَ وَتَعَالَىٰ جَدُّكَ وَلَا إِلَٰهَ غَيْرُكَ

Subhanakal-lahumma wa bihamdika wa tabarakasmuka wa ta‘ala jadduka wa la ilaha ghayruk.

Glory and praise to You, O Allah. Blessed is Your name, high is Your majesty, and there is no god but You.

I begin by praising Allah.
