Paradise Under Your Feet — Page xv
vii A SUPPLICATION TO ALLAH ALMIGHTY FROM AHMADI MUSLIM MOTHERS Our Beloved Allah Almighty, You alone are the answer to all our problems and troubles. We are weak and ask for Your special favor and blessing on this journey of motherhood. O Allah, make me a righteous mother so that I can raise righteous children; A mother, whose children do indeed find paradise under her feet O Beloved God, inspire the heart of my child with Your Oneness With the firm certainty of Your existence, That You are near and You answer the prayer of your humble servants. Most of all, grant us Your love. Empower us as mothers, O Allah, making good our shortcomings, Develop in us the qualities needed to raise the next generation of Ahmadi children Who are to be the standard bearers Of the victory of Islam. Make us models for them so they may practice what we are trying to teach by powerful example. Take our hands and keep us steadfast and firm In our faith, till the end of time.
