Sulaiman’s Dua for Forgiveness and a Unique Kingdom

Allāhumma rabbanā anzil ʿalaynā māʾidatan mina as-samāʾi takūnu lanā ʿīdan li-awwalinā wa-ākhirinā wa-āyatan minka, warzuqnā wa-anta khayru ar-rāziqīn.

O Allah, our Lord, send down to us a table from the heaven to be for us a festival for the first of us and the last of us, and a sign from You. Provide for us, and You are the best of providers.

Rabbana-ghfir li wa liwalidayya wa lil-mu’minina yawma yaqumul-hisab

Our Lord, forgive me, my parents, and the believers on the Day the reckoning is established.

Rabbighfir lī wa liwālidayya wa liman dakhala baytiya mu’minan wa lil-mu’minīna wal-mu’mināt, wa lā tazidiẓ-ẓālimīna illā tabārā.

My Lord, forgive me and my parents and whoever enters my house a believer and the believing men and believing women. And do not increase the wrongdoers except in destruction.

Rabbijʿal hādhā baladan āminan warzuq ahlahū mina ath-thamarāti man āmana minhum billāhi wal-yawmil-ākhir.

My Lord, make this a secure city and provide its people with fruits—whoever of them believes in Allah and the Last Day.

Rabbanā lā tajʿalnā fitnatan lilladhīna kafarū, waghfir lanā rabbanā innaka antal-ʿazīzul-ḥakīm.

Our Lord, do not make us a trial for those who disbelieve, and forgive us, our Lord. Indeed, You are the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

Rabbighfir lī wa li-akhī wa adkhilnā fī raḥmatika wa anta arḥamur-rāḥimīn.

My Lord, forgive me and my brother and admit us into Your mercy, for You are the most merciful of the merciful.
