A supplication to be enveloped in mercy

According to the schedule of Dawat-e-Islami’s weekly Sunnah-inspired gatherings, we will now memorise a supplication. This week, we will learn the supplication we can recite to enter Allah’s mercy

)اَللّٰہُمَّ(رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِیْ وَ لِاَخِیْ وَ اَدْخِلْنَا فِیْ رَحْمَتِكَ ﳲ وَ اَنْتَ اَرْحَمُ الرّٰحِمِیْنَ۠(۱۵۱)

“O my Lord! Forgive me and my brother and make us enter Your mercy, and You are the most Merciful of the merciful.”^[1]-^[2]

Note: The word اَللّٰهُمَّ  is not part of the Quranic verse, which is why it has been placed in brackets.

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                 صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Method of collective accountability (72 Pious Deeds)

The Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said, “Pondering ˹over the Hereafter˺ for a moment is better than 60 years of worship.”^[3]

Let’s make good intentions before filling in the Pious Deeds booklet:

1. To please Allah, I will hold myself to account through the Pious Deeds booklet and encourage others to do the same.

2. I will praise (i.e. thank) Allah Almighty for the pious deeds which I practised.

3. I will regret not acting upon the pious deeds I missed out on and will try to act on them in the future.
