Transliteration:( Rabbigh fir lee wa liwaa lidaiya wa liman dakhala baitiya mu'minanw wa lil mu'mineena wal mu'minaati wa laa tazidiz zaalimeena illaa tabaaraa )
"O my Lord! Forgive me and my parents and him who enters my house believing, and the believing men and the believing women [42], and do not increase the unjust except in destruction [43]."
Hazrat Nuh (on whom be peace) ends his mission with a heartfelt du‘a:
🙏 He asks Allah (اللَّهُ ) to forgive:
Himself,
His believing parents — proving they were upon faith,
Any believer who entered his house, showing that his home was a spiritual refuge,
And all believing men and women till the end of time.
🏠 His house symbolized a place of divine safety for the believers — a reflection of the protection Prophets offer.
Hazrat Nuh then prays that the unjust be increased only in ruin.
This includes even his own wife Wahila and son Kanaan, who were disbelievers and thus included in this curse.
📖 This is a clear proof that divine punishment can reach even close relatives if they oppose truth.
🔥 This verse reflects perfect justice — no injustice, no favoritism, only truth and consequences.
