What ever we did, looks so insignificant when thinking about what You deserve
Yet, so little that we did looks good enough when thinking about how generous You are
We tried to find You, but we noticed You were always there, it was us who were lost
We tried to hear You, but we realized You were always loud and clear, it was us who were deaf
Wish we knew what you recorded for us at the end of this month,
Is it ‘Accepted’? or is it ‘Rejected’?
If it is ‘Accepted’, then it is all due to Your compassion
and if it is ‘Rejected’ then it is all due to our weakness
Lord, no matter how big our weakness is, Your compassion is bigger,
So we hope that you have accepted the little that we have done
Oh God, from this day on, give us a fraction of: Noah’s (as) patience, Abraham’s (as) faith, Moses’s (as) strength, Jesu s’s (as) purity and Muhammad’s (as) morality.
From this day on help us so that:
Our deeds stay one step ahead of our speech
Our knowledge gets the shelter of wisdom
Our heart throws away anything but You
Our Lord, allow us to celebrate this day, not to value any of our acts of worship, but to value the One that we worshiped for.
Help us to have less of ‘Me’ and more of ‘You’ from now on
Allow us to consider this day as a new beginning
Allow us to congratulate our brothers and sisters on this day, not to satisfy any formalities, but to satisfy You.
Eid Mubarak!
