العفو
Al-'Afuw
Mwenye Kusamehe Makosa
Maana
Al-'Afuw ni Yule anayeghufiria kikamilifu — si tu kusamehe dhambi bali kuifuta kabisa, kana kwamba haikuwahi kutokea. Wakati Al-Ghafur anasamehe na kusitiri dhambi, Al-'Afuw anaifuta kabisa kutoka rekodi. Hii ni daraja la juu zaidi la msamaha: kufutwa kamili. Mtume (rehema na amani ziwe juu yake) alimfundisha Aisha dua maalum wakati wa kumi za mwisho za usiku wa Ramadhani: "Allahumma innaka 'Afuwwun tuhibbul-'afwa fa'fu 'anni" — Ee Allah, wewe ni Mghufiriaji anayependa kughufiria, basi nighufirie. Tambua: Al-'Afuw anapenda kughufiria. Havumilii tu kughufiria — anakipenda. Anatafuta kwa bidii fursa za kughufiria waja wake. Kazi yako ni kuomba tu.
Katika Quran
Surah An-Nisa (4:43): "Indeed, Allah is ever Pardoning ('Afuw) and Competent."
Tafakari ya Kila Siku
Je, kuna dhambi unayoibeba inayoulemea moyo wako sana? Al-'Afuw anaweza kuifuta kabisa — kana kwamba haikuwahi kuwepo. Unasubiri nini?
Tendo la Leo
Pardon someone completely today — not just saying "I forgive you" while keeping resentment. Truly erase the wrong from your heart and treat them as if it never happened.
Dhikri
اللهم إنك عفو تحب العفو فاعف عنا (Allahumma innaka 'Afuwwun tuhibbul-'afwa fa'fu 'anna)
The du'a the Prophet taught for Laylatul Qadr. Say it 100 times.
Dua
اللهم يا عفو اعف عنا واعف عن والدينا وعن جميع المسلمين
O Allah, the Pardoner, pardon us, pardon our parents, and pardon all the Muslims.
