Yâ Ali Madad. Let us first declare our noble intentions and then say the prayers. Yâ NOOR Mowlana Hazir Imam, we pray for: The well being of the NOORANI Family Mushkil Asaan for the global Jamat Material, spiritual & intellectual upliftment of the global Jamat Salvation of all departed souls Peace for the whole humanity (Please add your personal list here, if you wish) The following is an excerpt from Supplications of Amir al-mu'minin, Hazrat NOOR Mowlana Murtaza Ali (a.s.) from KHUTBA-81: A lesson about how to pray for His forgiveness, p. 46 Nahjul-Balagha: "Lord! Forgive my sins which Thou know better than I. Lord! If I repeat these sins please let Thy forgiveness cover them again. Lord! I have always promised myself to obey Thy commands and have always broken these promises. Forgive this weakness of mine. Lord! I have always declared that I shall come near Thee but my mind (has) opposed this, forgive this fault of my mind. Lord! Forgive the sins committed by my eyes. Forgive my vicious and sinful utterances, and forgive my inability to resist temptations. (Ameen) " Four out of the 99 Beautiful names of Allah pertain to the topic of forgiveness. These are: 014 Al-Ghaffaar The Great Forgiver He who is all forgiving, with His discreetness. Yaa-Ghaffaar 034 Al-Ghafuur The Great Forgiver He who forgives all with His discreetness. Yaa-Ghafuur 080 At-Tawwaab The Ever-Acceptor of Repentance He is ever-ready to accept repentance of His creatures and to forgive them. Yaa-Tawwaab 082 Al-'Afuw The Supreme Pardoner He who pardons all who repent sincerely, as if they had no previous sin. Yaa-'Afuw For today's session, let us use a bouquet of Yâ Ghafuur, Yâ Ghaffâr, Yâ Tawwâb, Yâ Afuw and Pir-Shâh Tasbis to clear the path of our return journey to our Creator.

Pir refers to the Light of the Holy Prophet and Shah refers to the Light of Hazrat Ali. At present, NOOR Mowlana Hazir Imam holds the rank of Shah and Pir. Therefore, this tasbi is equivalent to Yâ Muhammad, Yâ Ali. Pir-Shâh, Pir-Shâh, Pir-Shâh, Pir-Shâh (4) (O Mowla!
