Translation
O Allah, I seek Your protection from senility, from death by falling from a height or being crushed to death; from dying of sorrow, being burnt or drowning to death. I seek Your protection from being struck by shayṭān at the time of death and that I am killed. I seek Your protection from dying whilst I am fleeing from the battlefield. I seek Your protection from dying from a venomous sting.
