Chapter 3
In the name of ALLAH, The MOST BENEFICIENT, THE MOST MERCIFUL
Welcome once again to our self-care program which has been designed to support you in establishing and maintaining a positive approach to self- care that fits with your unique life circumstances, strength, challenges and needs.
Before we go further I just want to just gently remind you to keep going at your pace.
The important thing is to keep showing up and giving yourself the gift of small and sometimes big movements towards honouring yourself InshaALLAH
Step 3
Practicing forgiveness
Those who are generous forgive people. The prophet ( peace and blessings be upon
Him) reminded us “ if one gives charity it does not diminish his wealth,if one forgives
Others, ALLAH bestows more honor on him and if one humbles himself for Allah”s
Sake HE exalts him higher (Muslim) Spending in the way of ALLAH is closely related to controlling anger and forgiving people
“OH my servants who have transgressed against themselves, despair not of ALLAH’S mercy, for ALLAH forgives all sins , surely he is the ALL Forgiving, the MERCY Giving(QURAN chapter 39 verse 53)
Prayer of forgiveness
Here is a prayer and an exericise of consciousness development to help us enter a state of letting go of resentment and forgiving others and a request from our creator against our nafs/ego from what is outside and within US
In the Name of ALLAH, the Most GRACIOUS , THE MOST MERCIFUL
I release my parents from any guilt that they have failed me and wronged me
I liberate my children from having to fulfil my image of what they should be,from all expectations
I have of them, from the errors that they have made and will make
I free my partner from any obligations to complete me, I liberate my partner from the burden of my
Expectations and I release my partner from the things I have been holding against him/her
I free everyone in my life from the accusatiions I have been holding against them. I let go,now in this moment, before YOU MY RABB
To all those in my life and in my past I say: I honor you, I love you and I recognise you as innocent
I commit to reach the highest level of consciousness in my life, to be clearhearted and to dedicate my energy to being true to my own spirit. Starting NOW!
I intend to fulfil my life purpose and cut myself loose of the burdens that weigh me down and hold
Me back.
I embrace the lightness of forgiveness and enter into an abode of peace and happiness
I renounce the claim to being the provider, sustainer and deliverer only YOU have this role, YA ALLAH, I trust YOU to fulfill my needs I have and the needs of my loved ones
I am completed by YOU, OH MY RABB
I do not lack anything for I have YOU and with YOU is the ABUNDANCE, With YOU and by YOU
Is the fulfilment I need.
I love and approve of myself ,I am safe , I am free and I extend this love to my family ,friends and the entire universe to whom I say : May you be free
I am the creator of my thoughts , I create only good pure thoughts of myself and others
ALL BY THE POWER OF ALLAH
AMEEN
Please recite the prayer /duaa of forgiveness everyday if possible when you are in your sacred space
INSHA ALLAH
