As students of Sacred Sciences, one of the
first prophetic narrations that we were told and
we were transmitted, and it comes with an
unbroken chain to the Prophet Muhammad peace be
upon him, he says, ar-rahimun yarhamuhum ar
-rahman, irhamu man fil-ard, yarhamukum man fil
-samaa, he says, the ones who are merciful
are shown mercy by the most merciful, meaning
God.
Be merciful to those on the earth and
you will be shown mercy by the one
in the heavens.
All praise is due to God, we seek
his assistance in all our affairs, we seek
his forgiveness, we seek refuge in God from
the evil of our egos and our souls.
Whomsoever he guides, none can misguide, whomsoever he
misguides, none can guide.
We bear testimony that there is no deity
but God alone, who has no partners, he
is all-powerful.
He says in his scripture, ar-rahimun yarhamuhum
ar-rahman, irhamu man fil-ard, yarhamukum man
fil-samaa, he says, there is no deity
but God alone, who has no partners, he
is all-powerful.
He says in his scripture, ar-rahimun yarhamuhum
ar-rahman, irhamu man fil-samaa, he says,
there is no deity but God alone, who
has no partners, he is all-powerful.
He says, say, O God, owner of sovereignty,
you give sovereignty to whomsoever you want and
you take away sovereignty and power from whomsoever
you want.
You grant honor to whomsoever you want and
you abase whomsoever you want.
O Lord, the most capable, the omnipotent, bless
this city and lead us in prosperity through
collaboration and communal effort.
Bless Mayor Spicer and help her to outcomes
and results that promote both our spiritual and
material growth.
Help all the city officials with their services
to keep our city welcoming, peaceful and safe
and reward them for their efforts and sacrifices.
O God, we implore you to perpetually protect
and safeguard our city from any harm and
threat.
We ask you that you guide all of
us to the straight path, the path of
the righteous prophets, Abraham, Ishmael and Isaac.
The path of the pious, not the path
of those who have deviated and those that
incurred your wrath.
O God, help the ones that are in
need.
We ask you, O Lord, to assist us
in enriching education for our youth and to
aid us in assisting our elderly who are
the most worthy of our honor and respect.
O God, make us from those that are
merciful on earth so we may receive mercy
from you, the one in the heavens.
Amen.
