On May 24, 1908, some Hindu ladies came to visit the Promised Messiah, Hadrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani (1835-1908), peace be on him, and requested him to suggest them a prayer. Below is what he told them in Urdu. Translation follows the Urdu text.

Wishing everyone a peaceful and prosperous happy new year.



اے سچے اور واحد خدا ۔ اے کہ تو ساری مخلوق کا پیدا کرنے والا اور پالنے والا ہے اور سب کے حالات سے واقف ہے۔ تجھ سے کوئی بات پوشیدہ نہیں اور ہر ذرہ تیرے تصرف میں ہے۔ تو جو چاہے سو کر سکتا ہے۔ تو ہمیں گناہ اور بھرشٹ زندگی سے نکال کر سیدھا راستہ بتا۔ ایسا ہو کہ ہم تیری مرضی کے موافق ہو جاویں۔ بدیوں سے ہمیں بچا۔ بدیاں ہمارے اختیار میں نہیں ہیں۔ ہم چاہتی ہیں کہ یہ ہم سے دور ہو جائیں۔ ان کا تو آپ ہی  کوئی علاج فرما۔ ان کا دور کرنا ہماری طاقت سے دور ہے اور ایسا ہو کہ ہم تیری رضا کی راہوں پر چل کر ہمیشہ کی نجات اور سکھ کی وارث ہو جاویں اور کوئی دکھ ہمارے نزدیک نہ آوے۔ پہلے بد کرموں کے پھل سے بچا اور آئندہ نیک کرموں کی توفیق عطا  فرما۔

O the True and the Only God! O the One Who is the Creator and Nourisher of all the creatures, and is aware of their circumstances! Nothing is hidden from You, and every particle is in Your control. You can do whatever You desire to do. Pull us out of a life of wrongdoing and corruption, and show us the straight path. So be it that we become as You desire us to be. Save us from faulty deeds. Faulty deeds are not in our control. We wish that the undesirable habits leave us. You yourself treat them. It is beyond our power to get rid of them. And so be it that by treading on the path which wins your pleasure, we inherit eternal salvation and peace, and no distress come near us. Save us from the adverse effects of our previous faulty acts and provide us the opportunity to carry out pious deeds in the future.
(Malfuzat, May 24, 1908)
