Hizb al-A'zam
Below is the list of the seven Hizbs from Al-Hizb al-A’zam, the collection of supplicatory prayers compiled by Mulla Ali al-Qari, organized by the day of the week. Each Hizb is presented separately with its Arabic name, transliteration, and English translation. Since these Hizbs are collections of multiple duas (rather than single prayers), their “names” are based on the day they are recited, as is standard in the text. I’ve also included a brief note on each Hizb’s focus for clarity, as the full text of each Hizb is extensive (containing multiple Qur’anic verses and Hadith-based supplications). If you need specific excerpts or full texts, let me know!
