"And he for whom Allah hath not appointed light, for him there is no light." — Holy Qur'an 24:40
Astaghafirullahi Rabbi Wa Atubu Ilayhi
Verily, I seek the forgiveness of Allah, who is my Lord and Sustainer,
and I turn to Him in repentance
The above prayer is derived from the following verses of the Holy Quran1:
| Transliteration | English Translation |
| Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim | In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful |
| Qul yaa - 'Ibaadiyallazinna 'asrafuu 'alaaa 'anfusihim laaa taqnatuu mir - Rahmatillaah: 'innallaaha yaqfiruz - zunuuba jamii - 'aa. 'Inahuu Huwal-Gafuurur-Rahiim. | Say: O My servants who have transgressed against their souls! Despair not of the mercy of Allah; for Allah forgives all sins; for He is oft forgiving, most merciful. (39:53) |
| Wa 'aniibuuu 'ilaa Rabbi-kum wa 'aslimuu lahuu min-qabli 'any - ya -tiyakumul- 'Azaabu summa laa tunsaruun. | Turn ye to the Lord (in repentance) and bow to His will before the penalty comes to you; after that ye shall not be helped. (39:54) |
Let us now recite the prayer for forgiveness with humility, courage and conviction.
Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim
In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
Astaghafirullahi Rabbi Wa Atubu Ilayhi
Verily, I seek the forgiveness of Allah, who is my Lord and Sustainer
and I turn to Him in repentance.
Al-hamdu lillahi rabbil 'alamin.
Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds!
