Ruku’ 216 ركوع ٢١٦

Remember when Abraham said, ‘Lord, make this town safe! Preserve me and my offspring from idolatry,

Lord, the [idols] have led many people astray! Anyone who follows me is with me, but as for anyone who disobeys me- You are surely forgiving and merciful.

Our Lord, I have established some of my offspring in an uncultivated valley, close to Your Sacred House, Lord, so that they may keep up the prayer. Make people’s hearts turn to them, and provide them with produce, so that they may be thankful.

Our Lord, You know well what we conceal and what we reveal: nothing at all is hidden from God, on earth or in heaven.

Praise be to God, who has granted me Ishmael and Isaac in my old age: my Lord hears all requests!

Lord, grant that I and my offspring may keep up the prayer. Our Lord, accept my request.

Our Lord, forgive me, my parents, and the believers on the Day of Reckoning.’
