⁽¹⁹³⁾ Our Lord, indeed we have heard a caller calling to faith, [saying], 'Believe in your Lord,' and we have believed. Our Lord, so forgive us our sins and remove from us our misdeeds and cause us to die with the righteous. ⁽¹⁹⁴⁾ Our Lord, and grant us what You promised us through Your messengers and do not disgrace us on the Day of Resurrection.
