Surah 71. Nuh, Ayah 28
| رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي وَلِوَالِدَيَّ وَلِمَنْ دَخَلَ بَيْتِيَ مُؤْمِنًا وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتِ وَلَا تَزِدِ الظَّالِمِينَ إِلَّا تَبَارًا |
| Transliteration | : | rabb -i ighfir li- -y wa- li- waaliday -ya wa- li- man dakhala bayt -e mu'min(an) wa- li- al- mu'minen wa- al- mu'minaat wa- laa tazid az.- z.aalimen 'illaa tabaar(an) |
| Pickthall | : | My Lord! Forgive me and my parents and him who entereth my house believing, and believing men and believing women, and increase not the wrong-doers in aught save ruin. |
| Asad | : | "O my Sustainer! Grant Thy forgiveness unto me and unto my parents, and unto everyone who enters my house as a believer, and unto all believing men and believing women [of later times]; and grant Thou that the doers of evil shall increasingly meet with destruction!"18 |
| Malik | : | O Rabb! Forgive me, my parents and every true believer who seeks refuge in my house, and all believing men and believing women. As to the wrongdoers, grant them increase in nothing but destruction." |
| Yusuf Ali | : | "O my Lord! Forgive me my parents all who enter my house in Faith and (all) believing men and believing women: and to the wrongdoers grant Thou no increase but in Perdition!" 5725 5726 |
Note - 18Lit., "increase Thou not the evildoers in aught but
destruction" - i.e., destruction of their aims and, thus,
of evil as such.

Note - 5725Indeed he prays for himself, his parents, his guests, and
all who in earnest faith turn to Allah, in all ages and
in all places. Praying for their forgiveness is also
praying for the destruction of sin.

Note - 5726This is slightly different in form from verse 24 above,
where see n. 5722. See also last note.
