In the Name of Allāh, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
All praise be to Allāh, Lord of the worlds.
The Beneficent, the Merciful.
Owner of the Day of Judgment.
You only do we worship,
and You only do we beg for help.
Guide us on the straight path.
The path of those whom You have favoured;
not (the path) of those who earn Your anger
nor of those who go astray. (1:1-7)

Allāh! None is worthy of worship but He,
The Ever-Living,
The Self-Subsisting by Whom all subsist;
Slumber overtakes Him not, nor sleep;
to Him belongs whatever is in the heavens
and whatever is in the earth;
who is he that can intercede with Him
except by His permission?
He knows what is before them
and what is behind them,
and they encompass nothing
of His knowledge, except what He wills;
His Seat extends over the heavens and the earth,
and He is never weary of preserving them both;
and He is the Most High, the Supreme. (2:255)

The (Prophetic) Messenger believed
in what was revealed to him from his Lord,
and (so did) the believers;
they all believed in Allāh
and His Angels and His Books
and His (Prophetic) Messengers;
(they said) we make no distinction
between any of His (Prophetic) Messengers;
and they said: we hear and we obey,
(Grant us) Your forgiveness Our Lord,
and to You is the eventual return.

Allāh does not place on any soul a burden
but to the extent of its capacity;
for it is (the benefit of) what it has earned,
and against it (the evil of) what it has wrought:
Our Lord! Do not punish us
if we forget or make a mistake,
Our Lord! Do not lay on us such a burden
as You did lay
on those before us;
Our Lord! Do not impose upon us
that which we do not have the strength to bear;
and pardon us and grant us forgiveness
and have mercy on us,
You are our Protector,
so help us against the unbelieving people.
