530 ‘O the Most Merciful of the Merciful! Be pleased with me, forgive my mistakes and sins, as You are the Forgiver and Merciful, and make me do the deeds which please You greatly. Establish between me and my ego a distance as is between the East and the West. Make me spend my life, my death and each of my abilities which I possess, for Your cause; make me live for Your love and cause me to die loving You, and raise me amongst Your perfect disciples. O the Most Merciful of the Merciful! The mission for which You have appointed me and the service for which You have put passion in my heart, help me through Your Mercy to complete it. Through this humble servant, establish the truth before the opponents of Islam and before those who are yet unaware of the beauties of Islam. Become a surety, a trustee for this humble one and for all the sincere friends of this humble one; and for all those who are in my company. By Your Mercy, forgive and accept them all into the house of Your Protection and Pleasure. Bestow the infinity of Your invocations and blessings upon Your Prophet (Peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), his progeny and Companions. Ameen, O Lord of the worlds!’” (Tarikh-e-Ahmadiyyat, Vol. 1, p 265)
