"Reading and Meaning of Prayers for Parents"

When parents are old, their happiness is to see their children living happily.

Dream - Islam teaches its followers to always respect and be obedient to both parents. Regardless of the condition of the father or mother, a child is obliged to love both of them. Even when parents have passed away, a righteous child will show their devotion by always praying for them.

Parents are not just mothers and fathers. They are the ones who sacrifice many things for us until now. Without parents, we may not be able to be like this right now.

Prayer for both parents that we earnestly raise, God willing, will be heard and answered by Allah SWT. Even in a hadith, it is explained that the righteous child's prayer for both parents will become a continuous deed.

Then what is the meaning of prayer for parents and the reading of the prayer? Instead of getting more curious, check out the review below that Dream has summarized from various sources.

"Prayer of Both Parents"

Since childhood, this prayer has usually been taught by parents at home or by teachers at school. The following is the second most important prayer of both parents and can be easily memorized: اللًَيََّ اضفَليَهَهَامَ وَليَوَاَجَيَقَاَنَامَاَرَانَانَاَدَيَرَقَكَ

Alloohummaghfirlii waliwaalidayya warham humma kamaa rabbayaa nii shaghiiraa. Meaning: O my Lord, forgive me and my parents, have mercy on them as they had mercy on me when I was little.

"Prayer of Both Parents Seeking Forgiveness"

The following is the prayer of both parents to seek forgiveness from Allah SWT: اللهمَّ اغْفِرْ لِيْ ذُنُوبِيْ وَلِوَالِدَيَّ وَارْحَمْهُمَا كَمَا رَبَّيَانِيْ صَغِيْرًا. وَلِجَمِيْعِ المُسْلِمِيْنَ وَالمُسْلِمَاتِ وَالمُؤْمِنِيْنَ وَالمُؤْمِنَاتِ، إِلاَّ إِحْيَاءً مِنْهُمْ وَالأَمْوَاتِ، وَتَابَعْ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَهُمْ بِالخَيْرَاتِ، رَبَّ اغْفِرْ وَارْحَمْ وَأَنْتَ خَيْرٌ الرَّاحِمِيْنَ، وَلاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاَّ بِاللهِ العَلِيِّ العَظِيْمِ.

Allahumma, forgive my sins and the sins of my parents, and have mercy on them as they raised me when I was young. And have mercy on all Muslim men and women, and on all believing men and women, both the living and the deceased. And unite us all in goodness. O Lord, forgive and have mercy, for You are the best of those who show mercy. And there is no power or strength except in Allah, the Most High, the Almighty.
