3 adhkar in their Arabic wording from Hisn al-Muslim, with their English meaning.

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

Bismillahir-rahmanir-raheem

Each dua: the Arabic, then a transliteration to help you say it aloud, then its meaning.

  1. ((اللَّهُمَّ اسْقِنَا غَيْثاً مُغِيثاً مَرِيئاً مَرِيعاً، نَافِعاً غَيْرَ ضَارٍّ، عَاجِلاً غَيْرَ آجِلٍ)).

    Allahummasqina ghaythan mugheethan maree'an maree'a, nafi'an ghayra darr, 'ajilan ghayra ajil.

    (O Allah, send upon us helpful, wholesome and healthy rain, beneficial not harmful rain, now, not later.)

    once
  2. ((اللَّهُمَّ أَغِثْنَا، اللَّهُمَّ أَغِثْنَا، اللَّهُمَّ أَغِثْنَا)).

    Allahumma aghithna, Allahumma aghithna, Allahumma aghithna.

    (O Allah, relieve us, O Allah, relieve us, O Allah, relieve us.)

    once
  3. ((اللَّهُمَّ اسْقِ عِبَادَكَ، وَبَهَائِمَكَ، وَانْشُرْ رَحْمَتَكَ، وَأَحْيِي بَلَدَكَ الْمَيِّتَ)).

    Allahummasqi 'ibadak, wabaha'imak, wanshur rahmatak, wa ahyee baladakal-mayyit.

The transliteration is generated by Waqtazan from the voweled Arabic as a reading aid — the Arabic and the recitation remain the reference.
