Dinner

the duties began with the call to prayer delivered by Azim... the prayer was then led by myself as the imam... at that time, many family members had not yet arrived, therefore the short religious reminder that was initially planned was replaced with a supplication...

ya Allah, we seek Your forgiveness, we seek Your mercy, and we ask for Your divine guidance and blessings...

ya Allah, forgive our sins, the sins of our parents, the sins of our children, the sins of our relatives, our family members, our teachers, and the sins of all Muslim men and Muslim women...

ya Allah, make our affairs easy in this world and in the Hereafter... make us among those who are always grateful to You... make us among those who truly love You... make all that we do an act of worship that is accepted by You...

ya Allah, purify the hearts of our children who are here to seek Your knowledge... strengthen and correct their intentions so that everything they do is solely for Your sake...

ya Allah, we ask You to make it easy for them to understand what is taught by their teachers in the classroom... open their hearts to receive Your knowledge...

ya Allah, for those who will be sitting for the UPKK examination, semester examinations, and the beginning, mid‑year, and end‑of‑year examinations this year, we ask You, to assist them in answering their examinations...

ya Allah, grant them good health on the days of their examinations... make it easy for them to answer the questions... bestow calmness and tranquility upon them while answering, and keep them away from anxiety and restlessness during the examinations... guide their hearts to answer every question according to the correct answers...

ya Allah, soften the hearts of the examiners who will be marking their papers... incline their hearts to give generous marks, and veil their eyes from the mistakes that were made...

ya Allah, grant them excellent results in their examinations... may these excellent results enable them to continue their studies to higher levels, and may this become a means for them to become righteous servants who draw closer to You... make them outstanding students, successful in this world and successful in the Hereafter... we ask You to improve their character... make them excellent students with good personal conduct... instill noble qualities within them and remove all blameworthy traits from their hearts...

ya Allah, make them leaders among those who are God‑fearing... what we ask for is not only for them, but for everyone... grant them success in this world and in the Hereafter...

ya Allah, truly, they are our hope... we want them to succeed... we want them to change the future of their families... grant them continuous guidance and steadfast direction...

ya Allah, make them righteous sons and daughters, a comfort to our eyes... make them among the inhabitants of Paradise... guide their hearts towards deeds that lead them to Your Paradise... keep their hearts away from deeds that lead to Your Hellfire... make their hearts steadfast in establishing prayer... do not let them be distracted by things that bring no benefit...

ya Allah, we are unable to watch over them at all times... we entrust them into Your care when they are not with us... guide their hearts to places that You are pleased with, and keep them away from places that incur Your displeasure..

ya Allah, accept our supplications... we ask You because You are our Lord... we plead to You because You are the One who created us... we beseech You because You are the One who answers all prayers... if You do not answer our prayers, who else will answer them? if You do not hear our supplications, who else will hear them? help us, ya Allah.
