Each dua: the Arabic, then a transliteration to help you say it aloud, then its meaning.
((يَسْتَعِيذُ بِاللَّهِ و يَنْتَهِي عَمَّا شك فِيهِ)).
once((يَقُولُ: ((آمَنْتُ بِاللَّهِ وَرُسُلِهِ)).
Yaqool: amantu billahi warusulih.
(He should say: (I have believed in Allah and His Messenger.))
once((يَقْرَأُ قَوْلَهُ تَعَالَى: ﴿هُوَ الْأوَّلُ وَالْآخِرُ وَالظّاهِرُ وَالْباطِنُ وَهُوَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ﴾)).
(He should also recite the following verse: (He is The First and The Last, Aththahir and Al-Batin and He knows well all things.)(ththahir: Indicates the greatness of His attributes and the insignificance of every single creation in respect to His greatness and Highness, for He is above all of His creation as regards His essence and attributes.)(Al-Batin: Indicates His awareness and knowledge of all secrets, of that which is in the hearts and the most intimate of things just as it indicates His closeness and nearness to all in a manner which befits His majesty.))
