O my brethren, as we are thrust into yet

another year whether

we welcome it or not

let us confront our shortcomings with honesty.

We must strive to be more compassionate, steadfast, and relentless in our prayers and duas, for nothing else will save us from the abyss we create for ourselves.

We beg for the boundless mercy of Allah (the supreme) because we know our deeds are pitiful, our

sins overwhelming,

and our reliance on

His unimaginable grace is our only hope for Jannah.

O Allah, forgive the heinous sins we commit again and again without shame. Purify our hearts, which are hardened with arrogance and neglect. Guide us with the light of Ali and Hussein,

and grant us the severe patience we lack, the humility we refuse to embrace, and the piercing realisation

of our approaching ominous akherat (our souls are but in your hands) !!

Ya Ali, Ya Hussein.!!!
