CLOSING PRAYER

Ya Allah (O Allah), praise be to You for guiding us to the light of Surah Kahf word by word. Just as You promised through Your Messenger (SAW), let the recitation of this Surah be a light for us from one Friday to the next, illuminating our path in this world.

O Al-Kahf (The Cave/Shelter of safety), protect us from the trials of the Dajjal and the fitnah of faith, wealth, knowledge, and power. Grant us the firm faith of the Youths of the Cave, the humility of Musa (AS), and the justice of Dhul-Qarnayn. Make us among those who are safe in Your mercy.

Do not let this knowledge remain only on our tongues; transform it into righteous action in our lives. Accept this humble effort from us, for truly, You are the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing. Ameen.
