To Free Oneself From The Harm Of The Ruler

O Muhammad! Whosoever is afraid of a ruler [sultan, leader, etc], or has a request to make him, sould recite this Prayer, when he is going to meet him: 

يَا مُمَكِّنَ هَذَا مِمَّا فِي يَدَيْهِ وَ مُسَلِّطَهُ عَلَى كُلِّ مَنْ دُونَهُ وَ مُعَرِّضَهُ فِي ذَلِكَ لاِمْتِحَانِ دِينِهِ عَلَى كُلِّ مَنْ دُونَهُ إِنَّهُ يَسْطُو بِمَرَحِهِ فِيمَا آتَيْتَهُ مِنَ الْمُلْكِ وَ يَجُورُ فِينَا وَ يَتَجَبَّرُ بِافْتِخَارِهِ بِالَّذِي ابْتَلَيْتَهُ بِهِ مِنَ التَّعْظِيمِ عِنْدَ عِبَادِكَ، أَسْأَلُكَ أَنْ تَسْلُبَهُ مَا هُوَ فِيهِ أَنْتَ بِقُوَّة لاَ امْتِنَاعَ لَهُ مِنْهَا عِنْدَ إِرَادَتِكَ فِيهَا، إِنِّي أَمْتَنِعُ مِنْ شَرِّ هَذَا بِخَيْرِكَ وَ أَعُوذُ مِنْ قُوَّتِهِ بِقُدْرَتِكَ. اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّد وَ آلِهِ وَ ادْفَعْهُ عَنِّي وَ آمِنِّي مِنْ حَذَارِي مِنْهُ بِحَقِّ وَجْهِكَ وَ عَظَمَتِكَ يَا عَظِيمُ. 

O Allah…! O You, Who have bestowed power and might to this ruler [sultan, leader]…
O You, Who have made him become domineering and dominant over the others; by doing so, You have put him into a trial and tested him in his Religion and his Faith. This ruler is oppressive and tyrannical, and he dominates the others, because of the reign, the dominion, and the power that You have granted him so far. He is tyrannical and he is oppressing me; moreover, he is indeed most unjust towards me! However, his high status among the people is nothing but to put him into a trial and to be tested him.
O God…! I ask You, please, to remove him from his [high] position, and to make him step down and abdicate [resign] him from his throne, for You have, indeed, a Power and [a Potency] that no one can stand erect, in front of You! However, all this happens, if and when You wish and will so! O God…! By hoping to receive Your Benefit, I ask and implore You to remove the harm and the mischief of this person, away from my person. O You, Who are the Sovereign Ruler...!
I seek refuge from all kinds of cruelty and oppression, beside You, for You are the Most Powerful!
O God…! Grant your Blessings and Peace to Muhammad and the holy Family of Muhammad, and Remove the harm and the wickedness of the ruler from me! I avoid him and turn myself away from him [sultan]! By the power of Your glorious and infinite Might, Keep me safe, and Protect me from his transgression and adversity...! 

[O Mohammad!], whosoever recites this Prayer will always be in security, and no harm will come to him, from any Jinn or Demon, and he will see no mischief or wickedeness!
