Remember when Abraham said, ‘Lord, make this town safe! Preserve me and my offspring from idolatry,

Lord, the [idols] have led many people astray! Anyone who follows me is with me, but as for anyone who disobeys me- You are surely forgiving and merciful.

Our Lord, I have established some of my offspring in an uncultivated valley, close to Your Sacred House, Lord, so that they may keep up the prayer. Make people’s hearts turn to them, and provide them with produce, so that they may be thankful.

Our Lord, You know well what we conceal and what we reveal: nothing at all is hidden from God, on earth or in heaven.

Praise be to God, who has granted me Ishmael and Isaac in my old age: my Lord hears all requests!

Lord, grant that I and my offspring may keep up the prayer. Our Lord, accept my request.

Our Lord, forgive me, my parents, and the believers on the Day of Reckoning.’

وَإِذْ قَالَ إِبْرَٰهِيمُ رَبِّ ٱجْعَلْ هَٰذَا ٱلْبَلَدَ ءَامِنࣰا وَٱجْنُبْنِي وَبَنِيَّ أَن نَّعْبُدَ ٱلْأَصْنَامَ

رَبِّ إِنَّهُنَّ أَضْلَلْنَ كَثِيرࣰا مِّنَ ٱلنَّاسِۖ فَمَن تَبِعَنِي فَإِنَّهُۥ مِنِّيۖ وَمَنْ عَصَانِي فَإِنَّكَ غَفُورࣱ رَّحِيمࣱ

رَّبَّنَآ إِنِّيٓ أَسْكَنتُ مِن ذُرِّيَّتِي بِوَادٍ غَيْرِ ذِي زَرْعٍ عِندَ بَيْتِكَ ٱلْمُحَرَّمِ رَبَّنَا لِيُقِيمُوا۟ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ فَٱجْعَلْ أَفْـِٔدَةࣰ مِّنَ ٱلنَّاسِ تَهْوِيٓ إِلَيْهِمْ وَٱرْزُقْهُم مِّنَ ٱلثَّمَرَٰتِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَشْكُرُونَ

رَبَّنَآ إِنَّكَ تَعْلَمُ مَا نُخْفِي وَمَا نُعْلِنُۗ وَمَا يَخْفَىٰ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ مِن شَيْءࣲ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ وَلَا فِي ٱلسَّمَآءِ

ٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِي وَهَبَ لِي عَلَى ٱلْكِبَرِ إِسْمَٰعِيلَ وَإِسْحَٰقَۚ إِنَّ رَبِّي لَسَمِيعُ ٱلدُّعَآءِ

رَبِّ ٱجْعَلْنِي مُقِيمَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِيۚ رَبَّنَا وَتَقَبَّلْ دُعَآءِ

رَبَّنَا ٱغْفِرْ لِي وَلِوَٰلِدَيَّ وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يَوْمَ يَقُومُ ٱلْحِسَابُ

Do not think [Prophet] that God is unaware of what the disbelievers do: He only gives them respite until a Day when their eyes will stare in terror.

They will rush forward, craning their necks, unable to divert their eyes, a gaping void in their hearts.

So warn people of the Day when punishment will come to them, and when the disbelievers will say, ‘Our Lord, give us a little more time: we shall answer Your call and follow the messengers.’ Did you [disbelievers] not swear in the past that your power would have no end?

You lived in the same places as others who wronged themselves before, and you were clearly shown how We dealt with them––We gave you many examples.

They made their plots, but, even if their plots had been able to move mountains, God had the answer.

So do not think [Prophet] that God will break His promise to His messengers: He is mighty, and capable of retribution.

you [Prophet] will see the guilty on that Day, bound together in fetters,

in garments of pitch, faces covered in fire.

[All will be judged] so that God may reward each soul as it deserves: God is swift in His reckoning.

وَلَا تَحْسَبَنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَٰفِلًا عَمَّا يَعْمَلُ ٱلظَّٰلِمُونَۚ إِنَّمَا يُؤَخِّرُهُمْ لِيَوْمࣲ تَشْخَصُ فِيهِ ٱلْأَبْصَٰرُ

مُهْطِعِينَ مُقْنِعِي رُءُوسِهِمْ لَا يَرْتَدُّ إِلَيْهِمْ طَرْفُهُمْۖ وَأَفْـِٔدَتُهُمْ هَوَآءࣱ

وَأَنذِرِ ٱلنَّاسَ يَوْمَ يَأْتِيهِمُ ٱلْعَذَابُ فَيَقُولُ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ رَبَّنَآ أَخِّرْنَآ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلࣲ قَرِيبࣲ نُّجِبْ دَعْوَتَكَ وَنَتَّبِعِ ٱلرُّسُلَۗ أَوَلَمْ تَكُونُوٓا۟ أَقْسَمْتُم مِّن قَبْلُ مَا لَكُم مِّن زَوَالࣲ

وَسَكَنتُمْ فِي مَسَٰكِنِ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَهُمْ وَتَبَيَّنَ لَكُمْ كَيْفَ فَعَلْنَا بِهِمْ وَضَرَبْنَا لَكُمُ ٱلْأَمْثَالَ

وَقَدْ مَكَرُوا۟ مَكْرَهُمْ وَعِندَ ٱللَّهِ مَكْرُهُمْ وَإِن كَانَ مَكْرُهُمْ لِتَزُولَ مِنْهُ ٱلْجِبَالُ

فَلَا تَحْسَبَنَّ ٱللَّهَ مُخْلِفَ وَعْدِهِۦ رُسُلَهُۥٓۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَزِيزࣱ ذُو ٱنتِقَامࣲ

وَتَرَى ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ يَوْمَئِذࣲ مُّقَرَّنِينَ فِي ٱلْأَصْفَادِ

سَرَابِيلُهُم مِّن قَطِرَانࣲ وَتَغْشَىٰ وُجُوهَهُمُ ٱلنَّارُ

لِيَجْزِيَ ٱللَّهُ كُلَّ نَفْسࣲ مَّا كَسَبَتْۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ سَرِيعُ ٱلْحِسَابِ

This is a message to all people, so that they may be warned by it, and know that He is the only God, and so that those who have minds may take heed.

هَٰذَا بَلَٰغࣱ لِّلنَّاسِ وَلِيُنذَرُوا۟ بِهِۦ وَلِيَعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّمَا هُوَ إِلَٰهࣱ وَٰحِدࣱ وَلِيَذَّكَّرَ أُو۟لُوا۟ ٱلْأَلْبَٰبِ
