In the Quran

رَبَّنَا وَٱجْعَلْنَا مُسْلِمَيْنِ لَكَ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِنَآ أُمَّةًۭ مُّسْلِمَةًۭ لَّكَ وَأَرِنَا مَنَاسِكَنَا وَتُبْ عَلَيْنَآ ۖ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلتَّوَّابُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ

اے پروردگار، ہم کو اپنا فرمانبردار بنائے رکھیو۔ اور ہماری اولاد میں سے بھی ایک گروہ کو اپنا مطیع بنائے رہیو، اور (پروردگار) ہمیں طریق عبادت بتا اور ہمارے حال پر (رحم کے ساتھ) توجہ فرما۔ بے شک تو توجہ فرمانے والا مہربان ہے

Our Lord! And make us submissive unto Thee and of our seed a nation submissive unto Thee, and show us our ways of worship, and relent toward us. Lo! Thou, only Thou, art the Relenting, the Merciful.
