اللَّهُمَّ حَبِّبْ إِلَيْنَا الإِيمَانَ وَزَيِّنْهُ فِي قُلُوبِنَا، وَكَرِّهْ إِلَيْنَا الكُفْرَ وَالفُسُوقَ وَالعِصْيَانَ، وَاجْعَلْنَا مِنَ الرَّاشِدِينَ
O Allah, make faith beloved to us and adorn our hearts with it, and make disbelief, sin, and disobedience hateful to us, and make us among those who are rightly guided.
