Prayer for Repentence and Forgiveness of sins

Posted: Jun 23, 2008 Mon 05:26 pm     Views: 212    Interacts: 1

عَلَى اْلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِنَا ج رَبَّنَا وَ لا تُحَمّلْنَا مَا لا طَاقَةَ لَنَابِهِ وَاْعْفُعَنَّا وَ اْغْفِرْلَنَا وَاْرْحَمْنَآ أنتَ مُوْلَنَا فَاْنصُرْنَا عَلَى الْقَوْمِ الْكَفِرِينَ

Rabbana la tu'a-khidhna in-nasina aw akta'na, Rabbana wa la tahmil 'alaiyna isran kama hamaltahu 'alal-ladheena min qablina. Rabbana wala tuham-milna mala taqata-lana beh. Wa'fu-'anna, waghfir-lana war hamna, Anta maulana fansurna 'alal qawmil kaafireen

(Our Lord! Condemn us not if we forget or fall into error; our Lord! Lay not on us a burden like that which Thou didst lay on those before us; Our Lord! lay not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Blot out our sins, and grant us forgiveness. Have mercy on us, Thou art our Protector; Help us against those who stand against Faith)
[surah al-Baqarah; 2:286]

Thanks ShoreSahib, I would like to share a poetic rendition of this prayer (including the words before the prayer in the same verse which of course have inherent link.)Enjoy:

Allah does not burden a soul
Any more than a soul can hold.
A soul gets every good it earns
And suffers every ill it bore.

O Our Lord! Be not angry with us for our mistakes,
And for the oversights we unknowingly make.
O Lord! Burden us not like people of the past,
Burden us not with a load we cannot take.
Forgive us, pardon us, be Compassionate.
Your are our protector, You are our safeguard
Help us against those who do not have faith.

Quran: 2.286
