Lesson for the day!

By mentioning Asma Allah
The Most Merciful and the Most Compassionate
O God, I beseech Thee
let you take care of me
so that I am no longer against you
Really, I’m confused and scared
because of the multitude of sin and disobedience
equal to the abundance of your grace
and kindness
My tongue is numb because of my many sins
I have lost the authority of my face
Then with which face should I meet you
after sins make my face gloomy?
With which tongue shall I call upon thee
after immorality silenced my tongue?
Ya Allah,
How do I call you,
Even though I’m a sinner?
But, How can I not call you
Even though You are the Best Giver?
How I rejoice
Even though I’m a sinner?
But, How I grieve
Even though You are the Best Giver?
Ya Allah,
How do I call you,
Though I, me?
But, how could I not call you,
Though You, You?
How I rejoice
Even though I have been against you?
But, How I grieve
Even though I already know you?
O Most Forgiving Being
(Prayer of Imam Ali Zainal Abidin)
