Translation of Verse 35-41

35. ˹Remember˺ when Abraham prayed, "My Lord! Make this city ˹of Mecca˺ secure, and keep me and my children away from the worship of idols.

36. My Lord! They have caused many people to go astray. So whoever follows me is with me, and whoever disobeys me-then surely You are ˹still˺ All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

37. Our Lord! I have settled some of my offspring in a barren valley, near Your Sacred House, our Lord, so that they may establish prayer. So make the hearts of ˹believing˺ people incline towards them and provide them with fruits, so perhaps they will be thankful.

38. Our Lord! You certainly know what we conceal and what we reveal. Nothing on earth or in heaven is hidden from Allah.

39. All praise is for Allah who has blessed me with Ishmael and Isaac in my old age. My Lord is indeed the Hearer of ˹all˺ prayers.

40. My Lord! Make me and those ˹believers˺ of my descendants keep up prayer. Our Lord! Accept my prayers.

41. Our Lord! Forgive me, my parents, and the believers on the Day when the judgment will come to pass."
