as: O'Allah! Grant dignity to (Holy Prophet) Muhammad by making his religion overwhelming, his preaching, teachings dominant and his Shari'ah ever-thriving and ever-lasting in this world and by accepting his primacy over all (the past and future communities, nations), exalting him over Apostles, Messengers, Prophets, Angels and all creatures and by making him stand on "Maqaam-e-Mahmood" (a praise-worthy station reserved only for the Holy Prophet) in the next world.
