آمَنَ الرَّسُولُ بِمَا أُنْزِلَ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ ۚ كُلٌّ آمَنَ بِاللَّهِ وَمَلَائِكَتِهِ وَكُتُبِهِ وَرُسُلِهِ لَا نُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ أَحَدٍ مِنْ رُسُلِهِ ۚ وَقَالُوا سَمِعْنَا وَأَطَعْنَا ۖ غُفْرَانَكَ رَبَّنَا وَإِلَيْكَ الْمَصِيرُ لَا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا ۚ لَهَا مَا كَسَبَتْ وَعَلَيْهَا مَا اكْتَسَبَتْ ۗ رَبَّنَا لَا تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِنْ نَسِينَا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنَا ۚ رَبَّنَا وَلَا تَحْمِلْ عَلَيْنَا إِصْرًا كَمَا حَمَلْتَهُ عَلَى الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِنَا ۚ رَبَّنَا وَلَا تُحَمِّلْنَا مَا لَا طَاقَةَ لَنَا بِهِ ۖ وَاعْفُ عَنَّا وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَارْحَمْنَا ۚ أَنْتَ مَوْلَانَا فَانْصُرْنَا عَلَى الْقَوْمِ الْكَافِرِينَ
Amanar-rasulu bima unzila ilayhi mir-Rabbihi wal-mu'minun. Kullun amana billahi wa mala'ikatihi wa kutubihi wa rusulih. La nufarriqu bayna ahadim-mir-rusulih. Wa qalu sami'na wa ata'na, ghufranaka Rabbana wa ilaykal-masir. La yukallifullahu nafsan illa wus'aha. Laha ma kasabat wa 'alayha maktasabat. Rabbana la tu'akhidhna in nasina aw akhta'na. Rabbana wa la tahmil 'alayna isran kama hamaltahu 'alal-ladhina min qablina. Rabbana wa la tuhammilna ma la taqata lana bih. Wa'fu 'anna waghfir lana warhamna. Anta mawlana fansurna 'alal-qawmil-kafirin.
The Messenger and believers believe in what his Lord revealed: Allah, His angels, books and messengers, without distinguishing between His messengers. They hear and obey, asking forgiveness; to Him is the return. Allah burdens no soul beyond its capacity. Each has what it earns and bears what it commits. Our Lord, do not hold us accountable for forgetting or error, impose no burden as upon those before us, or what we cannot bear. Pardon, forgive and have mercy on us. You are our Protector; give us victory over the disbelieving people.
